A BIG PRODUCTION, #s @Asas ----------- ~ Electrical Effects for the Waterbur-
 ians BeinS Placed.

It has been some time since Water bury boasted of so pretentious a pro duction as "The Waterburians" will be. This big affair with it's mammoth cast of 92O is conducted on a scale the magnitude of which has never be fore been attempted in Waterbury. So great is the cast that all cannot even be accommodated in the theater at one time and several halls have been en- gagged where the different groups will be comfortably housed until their turn on the stage.
 Electricians are busily engaged set ting up the powerful. electrical effects which are to be operated from both :he balcony and gallery. Some of these assre tried last night and worked as Rell as though they had been built for this theater. ,s
 One feature of the production will be ill the finale. when thousands Of tiny sparks of fire will rise from the stage and float out over the audience like myriads of firehies It is owing to The elaborate arrangemenk made for electrical effects that this Gan be ac- complished.
 my teachers of the public schools will assist in acting as chaperons to the many drills and dances, and long lists of patronesses have already been made out. The box office will open for the exchange of subscription tick cts tomorrow morning.

Death am Umbfdden Guest.
 7 ANOKA, Minn., Jan. 26.-Death was an unbidden and for some time an un- recognized guest at sleighing party which was given by number of young merrymakers here. Among, them was Lewis Flicker, a young farmer, and by his side, with her arm around him. sat the young lady he had brought. Amid the joking and singing she scarcely no- tfced that her companion was unusual ly silent. She thought he was hang ing his head on his breast to avoid the cold. Even when she remarked, How cold your hands are!' and received no reply she thought little of the fact that he did not answer. In this way the 'bobsled" sped for miles to the accom- paniment of footing horns. yells and singing and laughter At last Ficker's continued silence attracted general at tention. An investigation followed, and young doctor in the party declar- ed that Ticker had been dead over an hour of heart failure.

BOARD OF EDUCATION.
Heard Report on Heating and yens- latinS of the Walsh School.

The board of education held an ad--
 jcSFned meeting last evening for the, 4purpOse of awarding the contracts for zsehool supplies, hearing a report on
 GhS condition of the Walsh school and zdtsposing of other matters of concern 5 Ao the department Commissioners
 Larkin and Lawlor, the committee ap-
 pointed to report on the Walsh school
 m connection with the bill from the
 Etna Engineering Go, reported as fol-
 lows:
 We have found that the average fleet Der minute delivered to each room ! Is ATS cubic feet. This allows 48 7cubfc feet to every child, or, in other
 words, 42 Dsr cent more than is re-
 Quired- We found the temperature of the rooms to be approximately 68 de-
 xrees. The lowest delivery of. air we
 found more than filled the requir ement
 We found that the shaft and tl4e
 fan in the attic is out of true and
 should be replaced. The pulleys on
 the counter shaft in the basement are
 wood and are loose on the shaft.
 These should be replaced by iron pull leys. The return pipes. are in the cold air chamber and are apt to be frozen
 when the weather is extremely cold. These We would recommend to be T ~>SAUA4 4AA AbAAt1 A4A0u WIIll WOOu.
 If MT Glanzberg will make these. changes We will consider that he has dHed his contract, Or if he will allow $160 We will finish the above" sa
 The inevitable Mr Glanzberg was on deck to get his money for the work,
 but the board decided that it would
 be unwise to pay him until after the
 bove recommendations are carried out by him. l.. H. Toucey communicated with the board to the effect that he has a bill of some $223.O3 against the city for work done on the heating and ventiladng plant of the Walsh school, that he was requested to do tue work l by the last inspector of school build mgs, and, in fact, the whole dispute which has been, before the board for the past year or two, or since the com plefion of the Walsh school, was gone over again. And once again the mat ter was referred to the city attorney 1t was voted to ask the board of public works to place a light opposite the Maple street entrance to the school. and an application for an appointment of janitor when vacancy occurs came from James Lancaster of East Farm street. ...

ETNA LIFE--ITS REMARK
 ABLE PROGRESS IN 1e03.

The condensed statement of the Aetna Life Insurance Go of Hartford, Conn. which appears elsewhere to-day. is a showing of growth and strength that must be especially gratifying to policy holders of this sterling com pany, coming as it does after a year in which financial institutions have had many unusual conditions to contend against.
 In these days of insurance progress one naturally looks to the leading in- surance company in New England. and to the largest company in the world issuing Life, Endowment, Accident. Health and Liability insurance for big results, but when one looks over the Aetna Life's record for 1903 the mag nitllde of the favorable results fairly astonishes him.
 The Aetna Life, which is now over half a century old. has developed into one of the famous companies of the country, and is a notable monument of the business and financial ability of the president, .ex-Governor Morgan G. Bulkeley. When he took the helm twenty-five years ago it had in round numbers $26,OOO,O0O of assets, and was carrying about $7S,OOO,OOO of life in- surance. To-day it has over S6S OOO.- 900 Of assets, and is carrying S226, ,OoJ- 900 Of life insurance, to say nothing of oyer $2OS, 100000 of accident insurance and immense lines of liability fnsur- ance. A very large and important part of this splendid growth Is due to the wonderful stride made in the acci- dent and liability department of its business.
 These are the important facts about what the Aetna Life has been doing. It is not only a matter simply of in- terest to its policy holders, or to dts managers, but to every citizen of the country at large who seeks for the very best there is of insurance that really sinsures.

POLICE COURT D0INGS.
detective Keesan Got Strong Evi- |dsnce Against This Fortune Teller.

Detective Keegan's attention was

 "F0rtune Teller and Palmist.

 nayor or governor, but then there
 was nothing like asking, and besides,
 he might De mistaken and would be

 what will turn up unless by a tip from

 and by inquiring into the future he

 The owner was a woman. low sized, dark and pale. with a. French zaccent and nose glasses. The detec- Rive told her that he wanted his for kune told, and 'thereupon she took a spack Of Cards and told him to 'scut' Sthem.

Sad to say, further light will never be thrown on this 5point, for before the fortune teller Hook another step in her excursion anto the dim and doubtful future the zdetective decided he had enough of Shis fortune told and left her alone in Isurprise and chagtin.

DEATH OF [. H. PERCY.
Round Dead i'm Bath Room at His
 Home on-North Willow Street.

Home on4North Willow Street. c. H. Percy, manager of the Water l bury Music Go, was found dead in the bath room last night at his home 271 North Willow street He has not been feeling well for some time past and
 to make things easier for the family
 MT Percy and his wife decided to take l up temporary quarters at the residence
 of Mrs A. J. Barnes, 123 Cooke street. l Yesterday morning MT Percy said he l felt somewhat improved and told the folks that he was going to take walk 1 down to see the doctor. Instead of
 going down town he went to his own l home on North Willow street and after 1 talking with one of the tenants, en- l tered by the rear door, and that was 1 the last seen of him alive. The ten
 ants smelled escaping gas all day, but ! they couldn't tell where 1t was coming from, and no systematic effort was
 made to locate the source of the trou- 1 ble until about 8 o'clock in the even- ing, when MT Barnes called there and a thorough investigation was under 1 taken. Coming to the bath room door In the Percy quarters, the door was found locked and on forcing it the dead body of MT Percy was found on the
 floor A note which lay beside him, ad- dressed to his wife, told the story, as follows: ...
 "My Dearest Molly: I am crazy and
 have been for some time and know it.
 Forgive me as I hope the Lord will. v
 After desiring to be remembered to all friends. he concluded: "And may the Lord have mercy on your poor Char
 ley"
 Mir Percy's coat and hat were on a
 sofa, ill the parlor and one window in the room next where het was found was open, which showed that he want ed to make sure that nobody but him self would suffer on account of his rash act. The gas jet ill the bath room was on and the unfortunate man had been dead for some time.
 The authorities were notified and Lieutenant Dodds and Medical Exam iner Crane apeared. After viewing the hody the medical examiner gave permission for it's removal to BurralIs morgue. 's

Frank Percy, he engaged in the music business. About ten years. ago he removed to Waterbury and lived here ever since. In addition to his connection with. the Waterbury Music Go he was associated With par ties interested in the development of property and ill this connection he ap- peared before the department of public works quite frequently the past few years, seeking permission to remove buildings. 1t is understood that he lost a little money in his real estate speculations and this worried him con siderably. Years ago he married Miss Marry Anne Caple, daughter of George CapleSof Woodbury, who survives hlm. He also leaves three sisters and one brother.s MT Percy was a prominent member of the First Methodist church and was connected wlln several fra- ternal societies. His home life was pleasant and his widow can assign no reason for her husbands conduct.
