STILL HANGS FIRE.
The New Man for the Almshouse Has
 Not Turned Up.

The department of charities has been foiled in its efforts to establish a new Parish at the Brookside home, but there will be change at the in stitutiOn if one Of the commissioners has to take the place himself The gentleman from the Silver City, re- ferred to herein yesterday, didn't look on the job as much of Il sinecure. The pay was small, the responsibilities and labors great. and he refused to leave a field where the work was lighter and the reward much more re- munerative. He looked oyer the ground and his wife went over it later and after comparing notes they failed to see anything in it. That's what We hear. but it is also stated that M1. Parish WAS not elected to the po- sition and that if he had decided to take it some of the members had planned to enter a vigorous protest in the interest Of some local man. 1t is understood that several good men about town are willing to step into Mir Moran's shoes and almost every body you meet believes that if the present incumbent is to be removed one of the local applicants ought to get the place. Ex-Selectman E. w. iPinney was in Waterbury to-day and his presence here gave mise to the rr- nor that he was making bid for ap- pointment as keeper of the institution, but it would not seem so from what he said to 8 representative of this pa per. He said that it was he who ap- pointed MT Moran as keeper of the town farm and that he believed he hit upon u good man, adding that Toms wife was worth the salary she and her husband have been re- ceivlng and that the, commissioners will have to look around some before they find q woman who will prove to be her peer in that position.

EDWARD J. MADDEN

Edward J. Madden, former resi- dent of Railroad Hill street, died last week at his home in Milwaukee, Wis
 His sisters, Mrs Hugh Saults and Mrs John Dillon, of this city, attended the funeral. Mir Madden learned the ma chinist trade at the FarreI Foundry Ss Machine Co and worked at 1t there for several years and later at Randolph x Gloves. He also kept livery and feed stable for time on Cole street. About eleven or twelve years ago he accepted q position in the seamless tube department at Whites factory in Milwaukee and held the job until q short time ago when his health failed. For many years he was a prominent member of the Y. M. c. l.. A., and the older members of that organiza- ton will remember him as a man of excellent character. He was debater of considerable ability and figured In the various discussions which took place in that society twenty-five or thirty years ago with vim which often made some of the old war horses wish they had a share of his pluck and brains. Mir Madden mar ried Miss Katherine Walsh, Water bury girl, who with three children, two boys and q girl, survive him. Although he lived away from the clty of his birth for many years ana was fairly prosperous in his new nome, still when he felt the icy hand Of death upon him, his thoughts reverted to the scenes of his boyhood and were 1t not out of difference to the wishes or ms family he would have arranged to have his remains buried beside the ashes of his parents, the late MT ana Mrs Michael Madden, in St Joseph. cemetery. MT Madden had w1ae circle of friends 1n Waterbury, who will regret to hear of his death.
