The suit of c. Stern S Mayer against Henry Rrenner ct ux was decided yes terday in favor of the defendant, who is to recover his costs. The case was for S4S for goods said to have been re ceived. It was tried in the city court civil side before Judge Peasley.
 The case of Julia Madden against Michael J. Aahan and wife was be- fore Judge Cowell in the district court today. The suit is for S3,Oo0 for slander All concerned live on Baldwin street. They are neighbors and one day got angry with each otn- CT and 1t is claimed the defendants called the plaintiff names.
 People living in the vicinity of the Waterbury Brass Go were startled this morning about G o'clock by the sharp report of pistol shots and look ing out saw two Italians on the bridge near Judd street blazing away at each other. It is said that one of the men was chasing the other and that the fellow who was being pur- sued succeeded in getting into the fac tory yard. where he is said to be em- ployed before his pIrsuer could catch up with him.

Up, Up, Up.

That's the way the price of almost everything we are compelled to buy is going and the last item we have noticed is taxes. Anyone who has re- ceiFed their tax bill will tell you all about it; we expected. when consoii- dation of city and town was complet- ed, taxes would be kept within bounds, but. on the contrary, they are going higher and higher. and the dickens, who is a brother to .Sprig- gins, only knows where they will stop. Wages seem to be the only af- ticIe which does not go up or course, where the wage-earners band themselves together and insist on higher wages, seven times out of ten they get it and more power to them ; may they live long and die happy. Say, did you ever take notice that our tea and coffee is always the same good quality and the price always the same Of course we had to go up on the price of butter the past few weeks. but that's no fault of ours; you can lay that at the door of the trust. But. thanks be to goodness, the cows are giving more butter than can be cornered and the consequences are lower prices. WE are selling -ele- gant butter at 27 cents per pound; if you delight in having nice tasting but ter served at your sable just try the kind we sell Remember our p cent coffee isn't equaled by anyone within eighty y-eight miles of Water bury.

the tender passion has completely de-

Turkenton says. will give his men an

that he has succumbed to the snares of
cupid, for he has ever been extremely
bashful where girls were concerned. His
followers however, remain true to him,
and are inclined to believe that the re-
ported love affair is without foundation.
Mr.. Conlin, Beware!
Several of the boys at the Western
High School who are neither members
of the 'Bizooters' or "Phruight Gather
ers" have started out to have a little
fun on their own hook. They say they
have secured a tin advertisement of some
sort of beer. and have discovered way
to get into the school at night without
being seen. They declare that they are.
going to steal march on Mr. Conlin, the
janitor, some night in the near future.
and are coming up to the building. enter

room. They are keeping the date of their
escapade secret, as they intend to catch

Captain Lehmer's Dilemma.
Since the sponsorship affair, in which
Captain Lehmer played q part that was
highly distastcful to the cadets, the boys
have had little or no respect for their
captain, and swear vigorously at him to
his face. So noticea BILE has this spirit of
disrespect become that the cadets are
falling behind in their drilling. Major
Sniffin, of the cadet regiment, visited the
school the other day and observed how
matters were going. He openly requested
the boys to do better woFkfor the honor
of their school. This has greatly amused
the cadets. The fact of their own cap
tain having so little control over them
as to require his superior officer to plead
with his men to obey him, has made a
big hit. 1t is now up to the captain to re-
trieve his laurels

low lots with ashes and charcoal that ne

at one time burned slabs and refuse that
came from his sawmill. The mill was de-
stroyed by fire September Is. 1899. When
the wagons commenced hauling the mound
OF ashes was twenty feet high and nearly
forty feet in diameter at the bottom,
tapering as it went up.
Today when the men had worked m
about fifteen feet. but before they had
reached the centre of the heap. the team
sters discovered smoke issuing from the
charcoal as it was being brought in cen
tact with the air. One OF them felt OF
his shovel and was startled to find It very
hot He picked up piece of charcoal AMI
blew it with his breath. when it devei-
ored into a blaze OF fire.
The experiment WAS repeated several
times today and each time the eharrel
lump would become live coal. The
ashes were about sixteen feet thick that
stood above the live Goals. and from the
outer edge to where the hot ashes were
first discovered a little above the ground.
the fine ashes were fully as thick.
No smoke has been seen to come from
the big ash pile FOR nearly two and hair
years, and these Goals have been in their
present resting place probably for a
longer period. as the cone shaped mound
was much larger when the mill was de-
stroyed than 1t was at the time the

hearts of all the boys in the school bv the
charming manner in which she accented
defeat and gave her support TO the sue
cessful candidate, Miss Morgan Last
week, while the talk regarding the un-

discussed at great length By the boys.
Miss Mason made her appearance among
them and requested that they let the mat

concerned. To bind the bargain she
