CALLED OUT BY
A SMALL BLAZE.

An alarm at 3:15 o'clock yesterday
afternoon called the fire department to
the offices of the Southern Cotton Oil
Company on Bay street. where a brisk
blaze, caused by a defective f1ue, was
burning between the ceiling and roof
of that building.
The fire was extinguished by Chem
zeal Company No. l, several gallons of
water being thrown on the fire. The
damage was slight, but on account of
its location the fire was difficult for
the firemen to reach with water and
but for their timely arrival might have
resulted in a serious conflagration.

DULsE SEASON IS HERR

l NJ x l Dencacy Imported From Ireland Along
 With Shamrocks and Blackthorns.
 Shamrocks and blackthorns from the ssAuld Dart are not the only season able things imported from Ireland be- fore St Patrick'ss day in each year. It is the season for dulse or dillesk, too, and many thousand pounds of 1t have been imported from Ireland in antici- pation of March 17.
 DuIse is a thin seaweed of purple color eaten by the Scotch and Irish, who call it dillesk, and by Icelanders. Dulse plants live for the most part in water, fresh. salt or mackish, and are found chiefly on the shores of four counties in the northwest of Ireland Mayo. Sligo, Leltrim and Donegal Large quantities are gathered along the shores of the sea in Ireland and Scot land, especially in the indentations of the rocky coast which mark northern counties on the Atlantic.
 Beginning in January of each year, dillesl is shipped in large quantities to the United States, and the importa- tions keep up usually until about the ullOulc Ol AdICu. u eStslIS III QudAll- ties from 10 to 15 cents pound, and is boiled into a tea which, besides be- ing palatable, has the further advan- tage. it is said, of possessing great cll- rative powers in many throat and pull monary troubles.
 Since the practical falling off in Irish immigration, which is now of small proportions compared to what 1t was in former years, the demand for dillesk has declined, and is found chief ly in some of the Irish settlements in cities and is purchased by the mem bers of the older generation of Irish men and Irish women. As to the mer- its of dillesk as curative agent opin- ions differ. but that it is an Irish pro- duct, indigenous to the coast if not racy of the soil, here can be no douht
 After the 1th of March the importd- ton of dillesk is practically suspended for the year.

JEWEL CASES OF SKIN.

Integument of Many Kinds of Crea-
 lures Used for Articles.
 Exquisite jewel boxes and portemon- naies are made of shark skin that has been bleached to extraordinary white ness and glistens like flint or granite on which the sun is shining. Only lately have the artist craftsmen discoy- cred the secret of doing this, and there fore these articles come high.
 A jewel box of rich white substance will have cover and sides inlaid with the scales of bone pike, the Florida fish, which supplies a material pre- ferred for inlaylng to mother-of-pearl. The bone pike's scales bear quaint markings, not unlike Chinese charac- ters. They are put on in overlapping sections, and. being pale brown and lustreless, are an interesting foil to the highly polished shark skin.
 Fashion demands jewel holders Of light, cheerful hue, so many skins are being experimented with to produce light pearl or cream tinted feathers of requisite strength and quality. The sea lions skin is used for costly arti- cles and gold bound curio baskets. All the tanning, rubbing and polishing ever resorted to fail to ob1iterate those curi- ous, wavy lines on the surface of the sea lions skin, caused by the animal s wiggling around over the ice. Hence it is stamped forever with an intrinsic decoration. However new the article, it always presents the aspect of an antique, because of these odd mark ings. And this distinction makes it sought after
 Other jewel cases and beautiful ap- purtenances in leather ware are de- rived from snake skin, alum cured, a material so difficult to get in right con dition that the manufacturers guard 1t jealously in lock compartments. The same snake skin, cured with prepara- ton of bark instead of alum, makes another variety of material, the one smooth and glossy, the other lustreless. Java snakes from sixteen to twenty feet long contribute skins of this sort. The alum cured skins have unique, mottled appearance that makes up charmingly with borders of dull gold and corner designs of intertwining wasps or lizards in shaded material and with fine emerald studded heads Chicago Inter-Ocean.

A LIB NAILED.

Thomas Dudley Wells is the editor of the Hartford Post He is well known in this city, where he spent a term as very successful editor. He constantly came in touch with Mayor Kilduff during his stay here, and, of course, ought to know whereof he speaks when discussing things pertain ing to this city. In last evenings Post Editor Wells has an article headed "Kilduff." The following sentence ap- pears in that article:
 ''The policy of throwing
 grass which he (Kilduff) adopt
 ed at the outset of the rioting
 when he ordered the police not
 to use their clubs, and when
 clubs were just what was need
 ed, was fatal to peace and or
 der"
 Now, we want to tell Editor Wells that the clipping above is a falsehood, made out of whole cloth, and for the evident purpose of injuring Mayor Kill think he is, an apology from him Is about due. This in on line with all that has been said about Waterbury's city officials being derelict In their du- ties. In reference to the balance of Editor Wellss article, telling of Mayor Kilduff's long service in the employ of the city, it can be said to the mayors credit that after more than score of years of faithful service there is no taint of malfeasance in office attaching to him, and he numbers his friends among all classes, creeds and shades of politics.

BITt,MlNous MINERS
Convention at Altoona, Pa., FGvors
 Many Changes.

Many Changes.
 ALTOONA, Pa, March 12. - The morning session of the bituminous min. ers' convention was occupied in the dis. cussion of resolutions. National Board Member Rice proposed to abolish the examination of mine foremen, the cer tificates, he said, being more of pro tection to the operator than to the min. CT. In cases of accident, he said, wid. ows and orphans of the killed could moi recover damages from the mine owners because the latter found refuge behind the mine foreman and his certificate the courts having decided that the cer. tificate guarantees the operator against liability. A man injured in the mines could not recover damages for the same reason. There would be fewer acci. dents, Mr. Rice argued, if mine owners were obliged to pay damages when they occurred. Most certificates are got in corruption anyway, he added.
 Several speakers advocated the pas sage by the state legislature of the em. ployers' liability act. The matter was finally referred to special committee.
 A resolution was adopted requiring that miners shall be informed each evening whether or not there will be work next day
 Another resolution adopted petitions the state legislature to enact law similar to the law now in force in the anthracite region which provides that mine inspectors be elected by popular vote.
 It was decided not to admit boys un- der sixteen to the union rooms, as they have been known to give away the passwords.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1903-03-12

What does the board of safety think of all this abuse that is being heaped upon Mayor Kilduff and the police de partment? This board has held almost daily meetings and has been in con stant touch with all of the officials. It's members are some of our foremost and influential citizens. Are they going to sit idly by and be called murderers and abettors of crime. not only by edi- tors in other towns, but in their own town? It seems as though Waterbury has tolerated this thing long enough. The interests of the city should be par amount, and when people right at home ridicule and talk disparagingly of officials it must be expected that those who have no interest whatever in the town shall do likewise. It is about time the people of Waterbury told these people that they are too fresh. If the same conditions as have been pre- valent here for several weeks confront ed the communities in which these edi- tors live they would see things differ ently. Again we say it Is time this abuse of public officials, both at home and abroad, ceased. Instead of fault finding and nagging, lend them help ing hand and try and bring the guilty ones to justice. Don't, by your action, try to give these .assassins the impres- sion that we have 10 government in Waterbury.
