The many guests voted the supper to be one or the best ever given in this section.
 The advent of cold weather has caused much sickness and the doctors are rushed with calls. Sick people will do well to remember whenever they want a prescription to be filled, to send 1t to A. c. Walkers pharmacy, where the prescription materials are the best that money can buy. Every thing Is fresh and pure. There is no substitute. The doctors directions are always carried out with absolute accuracy and the utmost care Is taken that there are no mistakes. The prices are the lowest.

FIRE ON CENTER STREET.
Fruit and Candy Store Burned and
 Flooded.

Fruit and Candy Store Burned and
 Flooded.
 About 3:3O o'clock this morning fire was discovered on the first floor of the five-story block, 46 Center street, owned by c. B. Coyle. The store was occupied by T. A. Maniot, fruit and candy dealer, and was we'll stocked. An alarm was rung in from box z, Ex- change place. The blaze had gained considerable headway before the de partment reached there, so that the store was badly gutted and what was not destroyed by fire was ruined by water. The upper floors are used as tenements and the widest commotion prevailed among the tenants and room- CTS. About twenty-five or thirty of them crowded to the door which opens onto the street, but found that the knob was broken off the door and they could not open it. Dr David, whose office and residence are in the build ing. was reused from his sick bed and hurried to the main exit, but when he reached there he was obliged to return and get out through rear door. Final ly two policemen forced the Center street door and from that time on the US@HPchtS lOuIu lO tIOuU16 HI iddiAlllS5 their way to places of safety. All doors Tn the railways of large buildings should open both ways.
 Supposing there was nothing the matter with the door last night, it would be the easiest thing in the world for those on the inside to get forced against it so that it could not be opened, and ill case of serious fire all would have been cremated in a
 heap. This would be impossible if the door swung inward and outward just as pressure came against it.
 The fire was kept in the fruit store. and while everything in that part of the block. including the plate glass was wrecked, it was fortunate that it 1 did not make more headway. The fire men worked hard and did good ser vice.
 The stock was insured through the agency of !. G. Jones for S1.OOO Tho damage to the huil6ing will amount to about $500. The origin Of the fire is not known. The gong at the plant O., the Connecticut. Railway and Lighting Co on Bank street made a terrific l noise and keDt it up so long that many mistook it for general alarm and thought Waterbury was having another big cOnf1agration.
