 Street This Morning.
 James OLoUghlin died at 5 o'clock this morning at his home, S1 Railroad Hill street. He had been aiIing for a considerable time. He leaves his wid- ow, two daughters, Hannah and Mary Ellen; also a sister, Mrs Patrick Moore of Greenfield, Mass. He was a mem ber of Court Stephen J. Meany, F. of A., and the Mutual Benevolent associ- ation. MT sO'Loughlin came to this country from Ireland about twenty years ago. After spending some time in Massachusetts he settled in Water bury. He was for many years an employe of the stamping department at the Waterbury Buckle Go and was interest in current topics and was we'll posted on political affairs in this coun- try and the old world. Born and reared amid the scenes of historic Clare and possessing an undying love for his native soil he was ever ready to lend a helping hand to any move ment gotten up with a view to con- tinuing the struggle for the abolition of the land system that had forced him to seek livelihood away from the place where under other condi tons he could have been prosperous and hap py.

Because Coal Dealer Delivered Goods
 Saturday Afternoon.
 Editor Evening Democrat:

This little con- cession on the part of our employers is conditional, that is, all coal yards shut their gates alike, so that one may not take advantage of the other. For instance, a telephone order to one or the principal coal dealers last Saturday afternoon could not be delivered till Monday, but another concern took the order and delivered the coal to one of the first firms best custom CTS. I was surprised to hear of it's being accepted, as it is union bake shop. I appeal to the public not to be. the means of depriving us of this half holiday on Saturday, because it would be hard to imagine calling more arduous than that of the team driver or one more fraught with danger and discomfort.
 The man who holds the reins is called upon daily to brave death or in jury in a multitude of forms. A heavy load may toppIe upon him, a trolley car may run him down by a reckless motorman: a runaway horse, his own. or some one else's. may in twinkling bring death or disability Furthermore, he must face the rigors of the weather under all circumstances, in sunshine and storm. and the extreme Of cold and heat. Under these conditions it would seem that men so engaged are entitled to the highest consideration at least in point of this privilege of half day off on Saturday for the summer months. appeal to those who have frequently seen the coal wagon driver covered with dust and grime in the bitter cold of winter night as he discharged the heavy load that was to keep others warm and comfortable not to accept coal on Saturday afternoons from any firm prejudiced to the rights of the team drivers.

MIR KENNEDY'S RECEPTION
Naugatuck People Expressed Their
 Pleasure Over Jury's Verdict.

 Pleasure Over Jury's Verdict.
 Attorney Kennedy was the hero of the hour in Naugatuck Wednesday night after the verdict of the jury in the strikers case was made known. It was after II o'clock when MT Ken nedy started for his home ill the rub ber town. He went down in a car riage, but fast as he travelled the news of the jury's verdict had preceded him. It was about midnight when he reach ed the rubber town, but even late as was the hour his townsmen seemed determined to give him a reception. They met his carriage on Main street and gave him a welcome that reused the whole neighborhood. Nothing would satisfy them but speech and rattling one he gave them, his subject being the topic of the hour, the trial and the jury's verdict which gave l1b- erty to the eight strikers. His remarks were heartily endorsed and the people would have unhitched the horses from the carriage and drawn it to his home had he permitted them. He thanked them for their reception of the jury's verdict because it was an honest one and deserving and we'll fought for, and told them that had not the accused been innocent the Jury's verdict would not have been for them. The people then gave Mir Kennedy three rousing cheers and allowed his carriage to pro ceed.
 Meanwhile on every hill in the rub. iber borough, from Coen hill to Kelly hill, bonfres were lighted, the people paraded the town and called at MT Kennedy's house and expressed to him their gladness at the result of his work as counsel in the case. 1t was cer-- tainly a great night in the rubber town, which since the inception of the trolley strike has maintained a strong boycott on the cars. r--. ft

Eadium Missing link Of Science.
Whole Series OF Discoveries Which Will
Revolu,ionize All Known Laws Ma, Re-
sui, from it, Says Mineral Expect.

George +. Kunz, of New York,
well-known mineral expert, has
been making experiments recently
with radium the results of which
lead him to believe that existing
scientific laws may be revolution
lied.
He stated that probably the world
is on the threshold of new discov-
cries, which would give as startling
results in the twentieth century as
the electrical discoveries of the
nineteenth. Some of the remark
able properties of radium are al
ready discovered, but they are not
at all understood. He says:
Radium surpasses light aud cleo
tricity and every known substance
in its penetrative power. 1t kills
mice and animals that are subject
ed to it. 1t turns glass black. 1t is
always two or five degrees hotter
than the surrounding air and yet
never decreases i'll energy. In fact,
all its properties are 50 utterly differ
ent from anything else that has
ever been discovered that it belongs
to new class of substances. 1t may
result in a discovery of a whole
series of new elements and revolu-
tionize all scientific laws of to-day.
1t may be the connecting link be-
tween the sun and the earth, as far
as we know the sun is the only
other known body which coutinu.
ally gives off heat without losing
its own energy.
