There has been a s.hot time" in Cleveland, where the Cleveland Grays have been visited by the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company of .4as- sachusetts We mean 'shot'' in no slangy connotation. There has been plenty of caloric in Cleveland. The fact is that the coal strike will bother Boston less than any other city. An Ancient is a storehouse and radiator of heat Tn the words of MT. Lowell, he is ssfed from within with all the strength he needs.'' He pours liquid fuel into himself at frequent intervals. Thus he comes to heat himself and others There is no fire in the armo- ry of the company in Faneuil Hall. It is heated and lighted by the com pany itself. If worst comes to worst and other fuel becomes scarce, all Boston has to do is to use the Ancients as a municipal heat and light plant

WITH THE WRESTLERS
A New Athletic Club Organized in This

City.
 A new athletic club has been or- ganized in Waterbury with the object of promoting wrestling this winter. This club will make bids for all matches to be pulled off in this city and will try and bring out as well, many of the amateurs in the city. The name of the club has not yet been decided upon, but will be in a few days The matchmaker will be Jack Brandon of Chicago and the club will be composed of local people alone, aside from the matchmaker. A purse has already been offered for John B. Kelly to face Oscar Johnson again at 40 pounds and another purse has been hung up for Jack Roach and Jesse Foley at catch weights. After Kelly wrestles John son a purse will be offered for him to meet either Max Wiley or George Bothner. Professor Dwyer will also be offered purse to meet Tom Jenk- ins here in a handicap match.
 Professor NJ. J. DWyer was in Wa terbury yesterday and while he does not show the strong healthy look he did when he first made his appearance in this city, he claims to be much heavier and in better condition than he ever was in his life. He expects to get on few matches this winter in this city and when told that the Brooklyn Athletic club wanted him to Wrestle with Dan Mcleod, he said that he was willing to wrestle under the auspices of the club, provided the purse was large enough and Mcleod made the handicap inviting. The pro- lessor has another match on the boards in New Haven shortly and his oppon- ent this time will be big mountain of flesh who claims to be world beat CT or something of the kind.
 Barnes, the wrestler, who was in l Waterbury for several days looking for a match with any of the local workers on the mat. has left the city, so it is said. He went to New Haven 1 the night Professor DWyer had the contest with Faust of New York and ! asked for a chance to go on in the pre- liminary. He gave the name of Smith l in New Haven. Some people call hiln l the Flying Dutchman.' Whoever he is or whatever he is he is rated as a pretty fast man and may be heard of in this state before the winter is over.

SUGGESTING. FALSE IDEALS.

Many boy is seriously handicapped in life, especially if he is exceedingly bright, by being told too often by his parents and friends that he may be- come president of the United States.
 There is nothing which stunts the growth, or cripples steady and per- sistent development more than being made dissatisfied with downright hard work, which, after all, is the great secret of achievement.
 It is cruel to suggest false ideals, hopeless attainments, improbable suc- cess to a boy or girl, It is cruel to make either chafe under the disci- pline and drill which alone can make achievement possible.
 Many a youth has been handicapped in his struggle to get on, and kept from the goal he might have reached, by those who have made him dissat- isfied with the ordinary routine of his daily work, by suggesting that his talents and his genius would enable him to win without drudgery.

A Scheme That Didn't Work.

According to all accounts our town
must be full of thieves. There is scarce
ly a day but we hear of some new
scheme devised by these fertile-minded
gentry for the purpose of getting posses
sion of other peoples property.
William Morgan, who is employed in
the Knitting Mill and boards at the res
idence of Mrs. William Voris, Church
street. is one of the latest selected as a
victim by the thieves.
On Saturday forenoon a stranger rep
resenting himself as watch maker,
called at his boarding place and asked
for Mr. Morgan s watch. The time piece,
he said, needed repairing Morgan
wanted it on Sunday and being too busy
to leave his work had requested him to
call at the house and get the watch.
Mrs. Voris was not person to be 50
easily caught and refused to produce
the time piece. The fellow was quite
persistent. The watch, he said, was in
Morgan 5 room and tried hard to induce
Mrs. Voris to go and get it. The wo-
man still refusing the fellow finally
left
When Mr.. Morgan returned to the
house at noon he was surprised to learn
of what had occurred The would-be
thief by that time had ample opportu-
nifty to get out of the way. AS Mrs.
Voris recalls him he was tall and slend-
er in person, with short light NOUS
tache. He wore dark clothes and brown
slOuch hat.

a Fine Lecture.

Dr. James Hedley, of Cleveland, Ohio
whose lecture in the Opera House Friday
night comprised the second number of
the Y. NJ. c. A. star course, made de-
cided hit with the large and cultured
audience present.
The subject announced for the lecture
was The Sunny Side of Life. Dr.
Hedley preferred, however, to discourse
upon another topic, "Wisdom's Jewelled
Ring He had been in Danville once
before he explained to the manage
institute, using the lecture, The Sunny
Side of Life. ''Wisdoms Jewelled
Ring" was, therefore announced as the
subject of Friday nights discourse.
There was plenty of humor in the lee
ture, which never failed to elicit an out
burst of applause; pathos that touched
the heart to tears, and philosophy which
appealed to the good sense of all. DIR.
Hedley tried to give a conception of the
beSJ Ol me- He Idlhtu W Soou eheCU anu
very successfully carried the audience
through to the conclusion that in the
true wisdom of this world self control is
the central and guiding star.
Dr. Hedley is a person of striking per
sonality with a wonderful command of
language. He was at times intensely
dramatic, especially when he dropped
into anecdote. He is always eloquent,
while the word pictures which adorned
his discourse were vivid and cleverly
drawn.

|OHN O'BRIEN'S
CLOSE CALL
Breaks Through the Ice While Skating on
Mahoning Greek,

John OBrien, the six-year old son OF
Michael O Brien, came within an ace OF
drowning Sunday afternoon, being
rescued only with the greatest difficulty.
In company with half a dozen others,
the little fellow was skating on MahOn-
ing creek near Northumberland street,
when the ice gave way and he sank into
the water, which was far over his head.
He went down, but ON coming to the
surface he threw his arms out over the
ice and thus was able to keep his head
above water While some of his COM
panions attempted his rescue with a
pole, Willie Gipple heroically climbed
out over the side of the bridge and
clinging fast to the girder suspended
his body in mid air, that the struggling
boy might grasp his feet The pole,
however. was too short as well as Willie
Gipple's legs.
The poor boy, was chilled to the bone,
and hardly able to hold on any longer,
when his uncle, James OBrien, in re-
sponse to call reached the creek. The
man ran out upon the ice, which gave
way beneath his weight and he plunged
in with his nephew.
The rescuer seized the boy but was
obliged to drop him in order to save
himself, The little fellow had sunk
twice when his uncle succeeded in
throwing him out upon the ice, after
which the man himself was assisted out
of the water by Frank REILLY and Pat
rick McKennen.

SCHOOL AEFAIRS
DISCUSSED
The Board Held Regular Meeting Mon
day Night.

The school board held regular meet.
ing Manday night. There was little busi-
ness on hand and the session was short.
Truant Officer w. E. Young reported
many children detained from school
owing to measles who probably have a
right to attend. The difficulty lies in
the fact that owing to poverty no physi-
clan has been called and although the
infected family may have passed the
limit which permits the child to return
to school, yet there is no one to issue a
certificate to that effect and without a
certificate as is well-known the teacher
is not permitted to admit the pupil. In
three wards Officer Young said he found
fifteen families whose children, now
well, are out of school on the score of
measles.
On motion it was ordered that in such
cases as above the truant officer notify
the parents to call ON any one of our
local physicians who will grant the
certificate required free of cost.
Treasurer Schram presented state
ment of finances to date which showed
a cash balance on hand of $40, 1854.
On motion it was ordered that the
flag pole formerly in use on the Fourth
Ward school building be removed and
repairs made on the roof.
On motion the use of the High school
room was granted to the debating
society made up of pupils each Friday
evening between the hours of Z and s.
The following members of the board
were present Fischer, Orth, Green,
Burger, Byerly, Black, Keefer, Fenster-
macher, Barber, Harpel and Curry.
