RIVERSIDE PARK RACKET.
Young Men Who Were Hooted Have
 No Hard Feelings.

Young Men Who Were Hooted Have
 No Hard Feelings.
 The companions of Erank Krantz of OakyilIe, who were the prlneipdl figures in the affair which occurred at the ball grounds at Riverside park last Sun Iiy' afternoon, were Erie An derson, an electr.cian employed at the Waterbury Clock factory, and Ate Harris. Both live at AS Hill street. Har- ris was struck on the side of the face with a stone. His face is very sore and he finds much difficulty in eating. A reporter of the Democrat saw MT Anderson at his home to-day. He spoke substantially as follows: "No, l was not seriously injured and l atn feeling, very well to-day. Krantz, Harris and I wanted to go to Nauga- tuck Sunday afternoon to attend tu- neral. We walked to the center, in- tending to ride in the bus, but We just missed 1t. There was no other way to get to Naugatuck then except by the trolley car. So we boarded one of them AS We neared Riverside park one of us suggested that we stop at the grounds for fifteen minutes and see how the game was progressing. And so we did Just the minute we left the car I suspected something might happen. We were immediately insulted. When we arrived on the field 1t was made very warm for us. The story of Krantz's S escape has already been told. Harris ran along the railroad tracks and was pelted with stones. I was being roughly handled when some friends in terfered and I was able to get away safely. If the crowd had only listened to us they would not have treated us so roughly. It was the first time that any one of us had ridden on the cars since the strike began, and We would not have even then if there was any other means of getting to Naugatuck. Harris works in Oakville and he rides to and from the city on the train. No, I don't intend to ride on the trolley cars any more nor would l even If Sundays disturbance had not occurred. have made no complaint to the police authorities in regard to the trouble and I don't intend to make any com plaint. I don't care about having any arrests made"
 Charles Krantz, father of Frank. is foreman at the Oakville Pin Go. By mistake 1t was his name that appeared in the article yesterday in this paper. He says his boy has no hard feelings against those who attempted to assault him, and that if he or his companions had thought for moment they would not have invited the trouble by going to the ball grounds in trolley car. He says his son woT1d not have gone to the police station had he not been driven there

{ NEW STOP WATCH,
Automatic Electric Timer Invented by
 Yale Student.

iAt1tomatic Electric Timer Invented by Yale Student. New Haven. April 28.-A new cleo |tTicalIy regulating stop watch for use |ila timing track runners has been in IvAnted by J. T. Roberts, Yale, 1905 Int many ways it is similar to some of th}a automatic arrangements which hASve from time to time been tried for thAs purpose. The invention of Mir Rqbberts Is considered by Michael Mur- phAy, the trainer, to be the best of the kiNnd he has seen.
 &The watch is connected with an cleo tIk1o current, the power for which is j 5Sbtained from dry batteries, and 1t Forks automatically. At the starting o3Oint Is an arrangement connected
 Fith the wires running to the watch,
 gnd when the runner makes start the
 urrent is closed and the watch starts
 the same manner there is connec-
 lion between the tape and the watch
 which upon being struck by the run 'ner opens the current and stops the
 watch.
 Mir Roberts and Trainer Murphy are now at work fitting up one of these l timers. They will be given trials, and lit Is hoped to use them during the spying athletic meets.

Dldn,t Mind Rlaek F1Ies.

A guide in the Maine woods was brag. ging the other day about his indiffer- ence to the attacks of the black flies, from which those in his party were suffering greatly. A $To bet was made that he couldn't let the flies settle for five minutes on his bare back. The guide stripped, and the insects came in good numbers and began to bite. He did not vince. Then one of the party got behind him, took a burning glass out of his pocket, and, the sun being out, focused 1t on the guides shoulder. The guide squirmed and wriggled. He stood 1t for some seconds, then he blurted out:
 T can stand all the black flies in Maine, but brush away that darned beel"
 He won the bet.--N. Y. Sun.

Improvement of Roadway.

Work has been begun on the new road
way which is to run from the brickyards
near Fort Runyon and Waterloo, Va,
across the low ground to the granite block
roadway which was laid by the Pennsyl-
vania railway in Jackson City about two
years ago. For many years, owing to the
swampy nature Of the ground, it has been
difficult to keep any sort of bottom in this
piece of road, and since the large brick
making plants have been built in Alex
andria county. which send hundreds OF
heavy laden wagons over the road daily to
this city, it is a quagmire in wet weather
and foot deep in dust when dry. Now it
is proprosed to remedy this condition by
laying a broad track on which the wheels
of the loaded wagons will run.
This will be not only great saving on
horses and mules, but will keep the road
in comparatively good condition for lighter
vehicles, by keeping the wheels of the
loaded wagons from cutting deep into the
road. About mile of the new roadway is
to be built, and 1t will be ready for use be-
fore the bad weather Of the early winter
begins. The expense of building the new
road it is stated is paid for by the brick
making companies doing business across the
river in Virginia.
