Out IN the torrid heat, among the fever
stricken sections OF Darkest India, brave,
earnest men and women are devoung all
that is best In their lives TO the hcrculean
task Of letting little ray Of light into the
darkened souls OF thousands Of human
beings. That their Efforts are not In vain
Is proven by a most interesting picture
which win be exhibited by the Lyman IL.

A. M. YOUNG HERE.
Says the Cheshire Trolley Line Will ## F. be Good ThinS.

Commissioners Jackson brought LID the question of completing the Bald win street trolley line at the meeting of the board of public works. He thought it ought to be finished and wanted to know the time limit for the completion of the job to the Pearl Lakes road. The clerk was requested to submit this information at the next meeting. President A. M Young of the Connecticut Railway and Lighting Do was in Waterbury to-day and talked about the matter with a Demo crat reporter MT Young said he did not know just how much of the road is still unfinished, but he had a notion that Mir Seweu had said something to him regarding a portion of the high way that is not yet laid out. q think" he continued, ''it is safe to state that the company will proceed with that work as soon as it can get the established grade" MT Young spoke enthusiastically of the Cheshire line, which he considered would be a grand thing for Waterbury, giving peo. pie an opportunity to enjoy a ride through delightful country and a chance to visit the shore resorts at New Haven. He said that the work is progressing favora bly, and that no bAAAC WIFI UV bOSL HI SSLLIHg Lll6 rOdQ in operation. MT Young looks the Die ture of health and retains the happy disposition that made him a favorite with everybody when he resided In Waterbury. No doubt MT Young's charming manners and winning ways had much to do in hypnotizing the de- pertinent of public works and the board of aldermen into approving troll ley plans, including the double track ing of many of the principal thorough fares on conditions which must have surprised even the directors of the company.

FIDDLER VIOLATED
 A CITY ORDINANCE

AIphonsus Schiovone, a peddler of farm produce, was gathered in to-day by Officer Daunais for violation of a city ordinance. He was expostulating with such vehemenee on the merits of his stock that people heard him halt q mile away and rushed out to see what was up. It would pay these vendors to read the papers and in this way keep in touch with city legisIa tion. A man has a right to talk on the public streets, but when he com mences to scream he runs the risk of getting into trouble Such exhibitions are very annoying and everybody wants them stopped. The changing of bells by umbrella men and fellows with contrivances for sharpening knives and scissors is also becoming a nuisance. A joker was about the streets yesterday with COW bell in his hand and he made it work with tremendous effect. He woke up the babies in the different blocks he vis- ited and instead of helping his busi- ness he got all the women down on him and lost any little patronage he might otherwise have received

POLITICAL POINTERS.
Chairman Burns Issues Call fer Dem.
 ocratic Primaries.

John W. Burns, chairman of the democratic town committee, has is- sued the call for the democratic pri. maries which will be held on Friday of next week. Delegates to elect dele~ gates to the state, congressional and probate conventions and delegates to the senatorial and town conventions will be chosen. The call will be found in another column and should be read by all democrats who are interested In party success.
 Judge E. F. Cole and H. H. Peck may be candidates for the republican nomination for senator in the f1f- teenth district.
 name frequently mentioned in connection with the republican nom- ination for representative is that of William NJ. Lathrop, editor of the Wa terbury Republican. He is said to have the backing of Congressman George L. Ldlley.
 James F. Carey, ex-representattve of the socialist party of Massachu- setts, will address a mass meeting in this city Friday evening, August 19. Subject, "Why the Workingman Should Vote for Socialism and E. ". Debs for President" MT Carey will endeavor to demonstrate that there is no choice between Roosevelt and Par ker, as they both represent the capl- talistic class.
 It Is reported on good authority that Attorney Wilson H. Pierce will be nominated for judge of probate by the republicans this year. They think that Mir Pierce will be able to give Judge Lowe a good run for the covet- ed position provided that old war horse Is again renominated by the democrats. Mir Pierce is popular in certain quarters, especially in the second ward, and his friends claim that if he should be nominated Judge Lowe or any other democrat would re- ceive very few republican votes in this stronghold of the g. O. p. But MT Pierce is also much disliked in cer- tain quarters An unmerciful warfare would be waged against him by the liquor dealers and their friends, who would spare neither money nor time to encompass his defeat.
