TELLS OF WATERBURY'S
 REPUTATION ABROAD

The Hon Ahearaharn Johanssen of Stockholm, Sweden, the Swedish com missioner to the Louisiana Purchase exposition, honored Waterbury with a visit yesterday. MT Johanssen, who owns extensive brass manufacturing interests in Stockholm, hastened im- mediately to Waterbury after arriving in this country in order to inspect the local brass factories. He stated that Waterbury has quite a reputation abroad for brass goods and automatic machinery and he therefore came here to see how the goods were manufac- tured He visited one or two shops yesterday and will return to this city after he transacts his business at the St Louis fair. It Is doubtful, how ever, if he will learn any secrets of the trade from local manufacturers. The Swedish commissioners were strikingly impressed by the unceasing activity, the hustle and hustle of the American people, which is in strange contrast to the European take-it-easy habits. He said that wages in Swe- den were much lower than here, but that prices of goods were also propor- tionately low. Skilled mechanics who receive $3 here, receive only $1.25 or $1.50 in Sweden. But everything is cheap there. A telephone costs only So year.

Highland, a young man of Evansville, and suspecting that she would elope with him, had taken her clothing from her.
 Miss Boswick lowered herself with rope from the window of her room on the second floor, and when she and young Pemberton reached Shuffietown they secured skiff and rowed to the Indiana side, landing at Rockport, where Highland was in waiting with a horse and buggy. A merchant was induced to open his store. and the young woman was provided with clothing and was then taken to Evans wills, where she and Highland arrived early in the morning.
 A marriage license was secured and within few minutes they were made one by Peace Justice Schrader.

TERRIFIC SPLENDOR
Overhead, While Hill Streets Were
 Carried Down With Flood.

Those who enjoy wild grandeur or terrific splendor must have been in their glory last evening, for wilder night of thunder, lightning and rain has not been witnessed in Waterbury in long time. About o'clock the storm began, and the succeeding hour and half were lighted up mainly by flashes of lightning that struck terror in many heart, while the peals of thunder made houses tremble and tha occupants quake with fear. Rain fell in torrents meanwhile, decaying trees were made debris of, loose shingles were torn from house roofs. and many chimney will have to be repaired to-day, and in the midst of it all the electric light in stores and offices went out.
 The crowd that was waiting for the democratic demonstration on Bank street was scattered and actually driven home. The most ardent par. tisan could not withstand the awful downpour that threatened to rip up everything in its way, and the routing the big crowd of democrats and re- publicans got on Bank street furnished fun for lots of other republicans, while democrats in general regretted the coming of so terrible visitor at that time.
 In a few minutes Exchange place was like lake, The storm sewers laid by the last administration, while they certainly did a good deal to save stock in many of the cellars on Bank, Exchange place and South Main streets, were hardly sufficient to meet the deluge. Storekeepers on these thoroughfares, accustomed to cope with such rainstorms, got their stock above high water mark In their eel lars, so that very little damage, If any at all, in a financial way was sus- tained by them.
 The water rose to a height of two inches in the cellar of Cones drug store, about the same Tn Dexter's and the neighboring stores. It appeared to have been higher in J. W. Hodson's cafe than in most places, but no ma terial damage was suffered. Kelly, the baker, on East Main street. always one of the principal sufferers by rain storms, escaped well last night.
 The work of laying the trolley tracks on Exchange place and West Main street was somewhat hindered to-day on account of the soaking the trolley bed got, and along the propos- ed line of extension in the eastern part of the city, washouts were quite numerous, which will considerably de lay the work and occasions great extra outlay from the contractors. Grove street suffered a good deal on account of the operations by the city which is lowering the grade and ma cadah1izing the street. A trolley pole on, Bank street in the Brooklyn dis trict was undermined, it's foundation having been washed away.
 q sIo %,,na oln square were covered with tons of the dirt which Superintendent of Streets Hotchkiss had put on Bishop street some weeks ago, and the same thing happened at the terminus on Bank street where for quite distance the tracks were under loads and loads of dirt, washed down from the hilly streets.
 Here and there dying tree was Topped off, but in general way the city escaped any serious damage.

BROOKLYN BRIEFS.

Patrick Craven has accepted a position as clerk at D. J. Mahaney's s cafe. |
 Miss Annie Neschke of Bank street entertained a number of friends at her home last night.
 Miss Keefe of Alder street went to Middletown yesterday to attend the funeral of relative.
 A healthy combination, maple syrup and pancake flour. We've got 'em D. F. Dunphy Grocery Go.
 An excellent coon supper was served at the Brewery cafe last night The 'coons were shot by Herman Jan sen and George Thomas one night last, week and they decided to treat their friends to a royal feast. There were large number present and they enjoyed the hospitality of Mrs G. L. Helimann, who was hostess.
 A ferocious looking weapon in the shape of blackjack is on exhibi- tion at James Madden's cigar store on Bank street. It was found yester- day behind a rock in lot on River side street near the cemetery. It consists of two pieces of leather be- tween which is a huge ball of leud. The two pieces of leather and the ball of lead are securely held together by smaller strips of leather. There is also Toose which goes around tho hand of the person using the black jack. It is a terrible looking weapon and one blow from it would be suffi- cient to put man out of business.
 The big storm last night did not dc very much damage in this section except washing away the top dressing of some streets. The most damaged street probably was the upper part of James street. A long and deep hoie was made by the surging floods and an electric light pole which stood on the side of the street was undermined and it fell down, lamp and all. The street was in darkness the rest of the night. About II o'clock a milk team came along and :he horse had walked into tho hole before the driver knew that there was any danger. It took an hour to extricate the horse and team from the ditch. The water was so high in front of Plume x Atwood's on Bank Street that traffic was block ed for some time.
 -The second annual supper given by the men of the Third Congregation- al church was held in the church last night and was largely attended. It was one of the best slppers ever giv- en at the church and the many good things served were much relished. After the supper was over an enter tainment was given. Piano selections were finely rendered by Miss Flora Stops and Harold Rogers and tenor solos were well sung by MT Werner. MT Kemp entertained with selections on the concertina. Mrs Wright, clair voyant, was present and told what the fates had in store for different people. The candy booth which was in charge of the Misses Clara Jackson and Lulu Robbins did a rushing busi- ness. The affair was most successful and much credit is due the committed which consisted of Fred Jackson, John Guthrie, Clarence German, Joseph Meckie and Albert Loef1er,

ARCHBISHOP A-SLUnMINC
Sees the East Side Under the Guid. ance Of Jake Riis--CalIs on Jerome.

New York, Sept 30.-The archbishop of Canterbury saw the east side yes- terday with good guide in the person of Jacob A. Riis. With the archbish- op and MT Riis was the archbishop's secretary. the Rev Mir Holden; Booker T. Washington and William ]. s. Schieffelin. MT Washington was call ing on the archbishop at the Waldorf when MT Riis went there for the pri- mate, and was invited to join the par- ty.
 Detective Sergeant Downing joined them when they got down to the east side. They went over that part of the city once famous as Mulberry Bend but now Paradise Park. Mir Riis ex- plained all the changes that had been made in the district, and the party went through many tenements. Ar ter this inspection they drove to the Criminal Courts building. They be came the guests there of District At. torney Jerome, who escorted them through the building.
 The party visited the TombS police court and saw Magistrate Parlow dis pense justice to petty offenders. The magistrate stopped the business Of the court long enough to greet and chat with the visitors.
 From there they went to the Tornhs and then drove to the upper west side to inspect several model tenements. The archbishop was greatly interested in everything he saw. He said that we did some things better here than they do in London. MT Washington had never made such trip before.
 When the archbishop got back to the Waldorf he was tired. He stayed in the hotel last night, excusing himself to callers.

KUBELIK' SUIT
IS DISMISSED
Yiolinist Denied Damages
From Critic Gehrmann,
but Is Given Cost of Action
WORDS ARE EXPLAINED
Judge. in Giving Judgment,
Holds Musician Invited
Comment by His Conduct

RERIIN. June 11.-'Suit dismissed
With costs for the plaintiff" was the
verdict OF the court yesterday at
s7rankfort-on-the-M in the suit
which KubeIik, the violinist. brought
against DR.. Gehrmann. the music
critic OF the Frankfurter zeitung. for
what the violinist deemed insulting
personalities in criticisms Of his con-
certs. Dr.. Gehrmann described Ku-
bslik as ''stupid-looking man
(bloede dreinschauenden)." Of effem-
mate appearance. and spoke OF him
also IS a specialist and miracle
worker who produced nothing but
tones"
The proceedings turned partly upon
the meaning Of the word ''bloede,
which experts testified was used IN
North Germany in the sense or shy
or "expressionless," and the court not
ed that DR.. Gehrmann came from
Berlin TO Frankfort. But Herr
Schwarzschild, Rubelik's lawyer, saw
in the word that offensive PERSONAL
ties characterizing Berlin musical
criticism were being introduced. The
Frankfort lawyer also objected TO the
word specialist" which he claimed
was only applicable to a variety per-
former. DR.. Gehrmann's defense OF
the word "bloede" was that he only
meant to say that Kubelik riveted his
eyes on one spot when playing.
The presiding Judge then took a
hand in the proceedings and pointed
out that he possessed a pamphlet
written against Wagner during the
great composers lifetime and designed
TO show that Wagner was crazy. Yet
Wagner. never brought suit against his
critics. The Judge also claimed that
Kubenk invited criticisms on his per-
sonal appearance by having full length
portraits Of himself displayed in shop
windows as advertisements.
The court in explaining the reasons
for the dismissal Of the suit said the
word specialist was justified, since
Kubeik cultivated the breakneck
feature Of a Paganini,' adding:
1t is now customary for critics to
describe the personal appearance of
artists for their readers who were not
present at the concert, and Kubelik
probably would have been better sat
isfed II the personal description had
been more fiattering."
The court also said that the express
sion "bloede" was not insulting, and
added:
If Kubeik had a crooked nose and
the critic mentioned # that would not
have been an Insult. The verdict Of
the court is. therefore, acquittal."
