LAUNCHED TO-DAY.
Largest Turbine Vessel Ailoat Turned
 Out at Belfast.

Belfast, Ire, Aug 25.-The Allan line steamer Victorian, the largest turbine vessel yet built, was launch ed here this morning. It Is expected that she will be ready for service be fore the end of the year. She is 640 feet long, has 60 feet beam and her depth is 40 feet inches.
 The Victorian is to be fitted Ill a most luxuriant manner ind is to carry 1,5OO passengers. To meet the re- quirements of the Atlantic service, including enormous propelling, stop ping, backing and steering power arc needed. These difficulties are under stood to have been overcome by Char les A. Parsons. the engineer, who has developed the steam turbine. A spe- cial arrangement has been devised for the Vtctorian's machinery, where by reversing power equal to that of her forward propelling power can be imparted to 1t, making it possible to stop the ship and back quickly. Her propellers are three in number, each on separate length of shafting.
 The Victorian will be fitted with a wireless telegraph apparatus and will carry q complete printing outfit between decks. Her tonnage is about 12,OOO and she is expected to develop about 10000 horse power.

CHESHIRE EXTENSION.
Work at a Standstill and nen Wait
 ing for Their Wages.

Trouble is beginning to multiply for the Walther- Burke Construction Co or PittSburg, which has the sub-contract for the extension of the trolley lines to Cheshire at the Cheshire end of the work. About ten days ago an at-. tachment for $25,000 was placed upon the tools, cars, engine and all equip ment of the company by Walter Ley x Go who sub-let the work to it. Yes terday another attachment for $1,O0O was placed on the property by Attore ney Bauby in the interests of the la borers who have been employed on the work.
 The laborers have not been paid for the past two months and have not been working for the past ten days. As they have no money they csn't leave town and go to their homes in New York, Brooklyn and Boston, but must remain at their boarding houses, little huts, out near Cheshire where the work is being done. Their board bill is increasing steadily and by the time they will have work again and their money will be forthcoming it will be all due to the landlords. Some of the men are completely strapped and find it hard to subsist. The men, 100 in number, have become tired of this state of affairs and placed their case in the hands of Attorney Bauby with the result that an attachment has been placed on the company's property.
 Representatives of Walter Ley & Go are hopeful that the trouble will be amicably settled in few days and that the work will be soon renewed. 1t is stated that the Walther- Burke Construction Go has also had trouble in performing a contract for the ex- tension of trolley Hines in Buffalo. The work has been tied up by attach ments, it is said. If the company does not soon show that 1t is able to complete the local contract, Walter Ley & Go will take the work in their own hands and push 1t to a finish.
 Several business men in Cheshire would like to know the present where abouts of one Flannery, who was gcIl- eral manager for the company. He skipped off, leaving a number of debts unpaid. He contracted bills to large amounts and forgot to pay He Dor rowed considerable money on promis- sory notes and then bade a farewell to the town.

Officer Mullings, however, said that he had been loafing around South Main street for the past month, Both men were sentenced to the workhouse for thirty days for vagrancy and fined $5 and costs for drunkenness and given thirty days to pay it.

RAISED THE $500.
Amount on Which George B. CurtisS Paid Interest Since War Time.

The story of George B. Curtiss's unremitting toll to raise the annual interest on the note of $500 was fol- lowed a few weeks ago by the an- nOuncement that the Connecticut Mis- sionary society which held the mort gage on his home threatened to fore close 1t and that Curtiss was to be thrown on the charity of relatives for the rest of his life The simple re- cital of the facts awakened sympathy at once. A charitable woman went to the Hartford Courant office on the day the story appeared and offer ed $25 towards paying the note. Yes terday Amer Sperry, in the white win ter Of his age, called at the office and said he would contribute the remain ing $275 in order that the Curtiss farm, for the first time in over forty years may be unencumbered.
 MT Sperry explained that he had read of MT Curtiss's financial difl- culty, and his heart went out to him in sympathy. He could not bear to think that Curtiss was in danger of losing his old home on account of that old debt contracted during the war upon which he had paid interest for so many years.
 am not T1cn man, SC Ealus neither am I very poor. But the case appeals to me strongly and I am willing to pay the amount rather than see MT Curtiss lose his all"
 Last night word was received from Bristol that Rev pr A. H. Good enough was willing to contribute $S towards lifting Mir Curtiss's financial load and paying the note to the Con- necticut Visionary society. The charitable woman whose sympathy was first aroused and who offered to give $25 towards paying the note, was Miss M. G. Pitkin of PIP Laurel street, Hartford.

MEETING OF c. T. A. U.
Rev. John P. Neal of Terryville fos
 Presidency.

Reverend John F. Neal of Terry vile. one of the most eIoquent preach CTS in the Hartford diocese, has an- nounced his candidacy for the presi- dency of the Catholic Total Absun- ence Union of Connecticut.
 State officers will be elected at the convention to be held in Winsted next Monday and Tuesday
 Father Neal, whose native city is Middletown, is an ardent and enthusi- astic worker in the cause of temper ance. He is man of fine mind and rich attainments. AS lecturer he has no superior in the Catholic clergy of Connecticut
 His command of English is marvel ous and his broad acquaintance with lay literary men dn New York makes him very valuable, particularly when the lecture bureau of next winter is considered.
 has organized a T. A. B. society of 100 members, no mean achievement. and is now engaged in buildinn a beautiful society club house for Che young men.
 He stands high among clergy and laymen and will probably be the unanimous choice of the convention for the presidency.
 State Secretary William J. Cronin of New Haven will receive the unan- dmous reelection beyond question, as will State Treasurer Charles Fitzger- ald of Middletown,, who has filled his position for 23 years with honor to himself and the organization.
 For state editor, the present incum- bent, George Lambert of Naugatuck, and MT Fox of Hartford are candi- dates, and for national delegate John Meade of Ansonia and Miss Alice Wynne of Winsted.
 Middletown wants the next stare, parade and field day, which she waIi' probably secure, and Naugatuck is quite liable to be the convention town in 1905.

Letter In overaIIs on Guard.

CHICAGO, Aug 25.-Within a pc riod of four weeks Joseph Letter, mill lionaire and member of one of the oldest and best known families in Chi cago, has succeeded in opening up and operating his mines at Zeigler, Ill, night and day with a full complement of men and the usual output in def- ance of an armed body of 400 strikers. In navy blue shirt and overalls, in strange contrast to the conventional dress which he wears at home, MT. Letter personally patrolled the plant and directed the defenses against pos sible attacks from striking miners who were camped in tents outside the town.

THE SERVICE IS
 BADLY NEEDED

Tn answer to protests of residents of upper Baldwin street against blocking the gutters by rails and ties that they show no signs Of using, the trolley company to-day moved the timbers to their property on West Main street. This gives color to the rumor that they do not intend to complete the balance of the road very soon, although the time limit is November 15 of this year. MT Young and Mir Sewell told rep resentative of this paper that the com pany would finish the job as soon as the city gave them the grade of the street, but 1t would seem that there is some mistake about this The grade Is established from Washington street to Madison street, a distance of about 2,O0O feet. and by the time the rails would have been laid between these points everything would be ready for them to continue to the end The peo- pie hope that there will be no backing out of finishing the road before the bad weather sets in. The service is needed worse from Washington street to the Pearl Lakes road than from Washing
 ton street to the center and the people should have 1t. The present adminis- tration has been more than generous with the trolley company and the com pany cannot afford to wink at it's con. tract to operate that road this season

No, We Did Not Buy an Oil Stove,

An agent put one in on trial but it is gone" replied the man with the cop per nose, to Water street grocer. Yesterday my wife started the oil stove, went out to talk some rubber shop gossip with neighbor, and when she got back the house was full of black smoke, her poodle looked like a skye terrier and it seemed like job for the fire department. She threw q pail of water on the stove and put out the flame. She started to get some thing to clean up with. The agent called, after she had gone, and in anred Ehr s Mrs nh1a hniPR J m inn sald 1Ed a sanitarium, of course. Does that torpedo belong to you? He said Yes and he grabbed the internal machine and scooted, No oil stove for me. I am returning to sane and safe meth ods," he said as he swapped dime for a bag of Browns Quickfre Char coal.
