EILEEN OGE"
Costumes For the Prod uction Arrived
 Tn the City Last Evening.

Last night was busy night for the members of the cast of characters who are to present on Thanksgiving after noon and evening the very popular and interesting Irish drama. .Eileen Oge.'' The costumes from Gibbons. the great costumer of New Haven, arrived here at s o'clock last night and were dis, tributed among the cast of characters. They are the best costumes for such a play ever used by any cast of charac. ters. Rehearsal was begun as .suon as the costumes had been tried on and found to fit, and it was after n o'clock before the rehearsal was concluded Tonight the rehearsal will start promptly at 8 o'clock, and it will be a full dress affair, and every person who takes part in any way in the play will be in attendance
 Now. as to the play itself and some of the characters in the production. Those of you who read this article and those who have been born across the water will find many scenes brought wildly home to you which many or you witnessed in childhood. Those who were born ill this country will be more than pleased to be carried through various parts of Ireland in q story tas Interesting as it is exciting. There is sone feature which should bs spoken of particularly, and that is the hay making scene. There the boys and girls are seen handling the rakes and forks, the songs and dances come ill the midst of the haymaking. and right here 1t might be said with good authority that two of the dancers win astonish you. Miss Anna Burke is but young miss, but she knows how to rattle off reel or jig like any professional Tim O'Connell will be the male dancer and he will introduce the old Irish style of jig and reel danc- ing In the cast of characters we have such amateurs as Thomas A. Maher In the character of Bryan O'Farreli, William Shannahan as Father Ma honey, John F. Sheehan as Patrick O'Donnell. James M Caldwell as Thad- deus Moriarty, Edward ]. Flanagan as Henry Loftus, Thomas F. Kennedy as John Thomas, F. T. Kendrick as Tim the Penman. and last but not least among the men characters, Luke Henderson, who will furnish the music for the dances on his old Irish pipes. Then the ladies, Miss Mollie Lord as Eileen Moriarty, Miss Mamie Daley as Bridget Mcclure, Lizzie Delaney as Nora O'DonnelI. and many others whose names just now are forgotteni It will be play well worth taking an evening off to witness and as it takes place on Thanksgiving afternoon ana evening everybody will have a chance to witness it. Dancing will take piacc after the play Is over.

IN THE POLICE COURT.
Electric Light Trimmer Had Dos
 Owner in Court To-Day.

George Winslow, an electric light trimmer, appears to be an object of dislike for dogs for twice during the past month he has been bitten. A dog owned bW Cornelius Murphy of Water vile had the first bite. According to the story he told Judge Burpee inicourt to-day he was about ascending pole when the dog jumped at him and bit his right wrist. He ren1onstrnted to Mrs Murphy, and she was surprised, because the dog is pet among the children of the neighborhood and never showed any dislike toward human beings before. Two weeks later an- other dog went for him and had a blts of his trousers. Murphy said this morning that he was informed by the children who were playing near the dog that Winsfow struck 1t on the head before it attacked him. The case was continued thirty days.
 James Calalarse was fined S3 fo4 violating city ordinance that re- quires scavengers to keep their laden wagons covered. Calalarse was in charge of wagon load of ashes going through Exchange place yesterday morning. There was no cover on the wagon and the wind blew the ashes into the stores and peoples eyes.
 The complaint against the boy, Pat rick Scanlon, for theft, was nolied. This is the second time this boy has been discharged within a week, anu his father is desirous of showing to the public thnt he is not guilty of steai. ing. and is a better boy than some who are criticising him.

JUDGE LOWE HOLDS FORT
Prosecuting Attorney Bradstreet Has
 Removed Everthing But Books.

It is supposed by the lawyers in the Odd Fellows building that Prosecut- ing Attorney A. P Bradstreet of the district court has relinquished his Of fees. The carpets have been removed and all the bric-a-brac that distin- guished his office from the offices of all the other lawyers in the city have been taken away. and the rooms are now occupied by Judge Lowe. His books, however, remain. This gives addition al color to the rumor published last week that Attorney U. G. Church is to succeed Attorney Bradstreet as prosecutor in the district court upon the expiration of his term, which oc- CUTS i'll April. Judge Cowells term expires in May
 Yesterday Judge Cowell was asked If there was any truth i'll the report the matter, and his. answer was that he did not know, that 'the new judge would have something to say about it" This, however, was only the judges way of saying that he was not sure of his own job, but he says the same every two years. Anyone who undertakes to have Judge Coweli removed from the bench of the dis trlct court takes a hugh contract.
 Everything, however, points to At torney Church as Attorney Brad streets successor. It is very well known that the only law Attorney Bradstreet practices nowadays Is what he does during one or two days of the criminal terms of the district court and the few days preceding. Up he comes then from New York, where he spends all the rest of his time, settles all he can of the cases on the crinn- inal list. which generally leaves only one or two for trial It has been many years since criminal term of the district court lasted more than day or two The moment it is over off to New York goes Mir Bradstreet again Ill view of this situation. re- publican lawyers say that Attorney Bradstreet can hardly file Kick If he is removed from office for a lawyer who practices law.

Mr Bristol Killed and Automobile
 Smashed in Terrible Crash.

Franklin E. Bristol of the Bristol
 Co, Platts Mills, was killed at $
 o'clock last night at the Naugatuck
 grade crossing near the factory. MT
 Bristol was coming down the steep
 grade leading to the railroad crossing
 and reached the tracks just as south
 bound train came along which hit his
 automobile in the center, carrying it
 some distance along the rails before the engineer could bring his engine to a standstill. The auto was complete
 ly wrecked and the remains of the oc- 'cupant were found near the shattered machine, his skull broken and other portions of his body battered and bruised. Medical Examiner Crane said death was instantaneous and that he believed the collision acci- dental. Whether the unfortunate man saw the train and thought he would have time to cross ahead of it or his machine became unmanageable and rushed down the hill in spite of him, will never be known. Engineer Norton says he realized the serious ness of the situation, but was not able to stop on time to avert it. The body was removed to Twitchell's morgue, MT Bristol was A years of age and first vice-president. of the Bristol Go. His father, Bennett Bris- tol, and his brothers. William H., Ed gar H. and Bennett B. were associ- ated with him ill the business. He was well liked by the help and had n wide circle of friends in Waterbury and Naugatuck and was well known all through the valley. His widow, formerly Miss Bertha Russell of this city, and four sons, Samuel, Howard, Carley and Franklin, survive him. He also leaves two sisters. one the wife of +. A. Smith of Millville, and the other Mrs Ellsworth Tracy.

 The new heating plant which was put ill at the Bank street school has been given fair test the past few weeks and the teachers and pupils at the school are delighted at the change. Every room and corner of the building IS equally heated throughout, and the system is a great improvement on tho old one.
 The past few weeks boys with aip rifles have been making themselves very numerous in this section. and they have proved to be somewhat of a nuisance. They try to pop the birds off the trees. and in so doing they often miss the birds and the shot takes window i'll neighbours house. Of course when the boy Is asked about breaking the window he says he took the bird and did not come anywhere near the window, but the neighbor has to settle the cost of putting in a new window.

CONVICT CAUGHT.
Johnson Thought Guards Had Gone
 and Crawled Out Exhausted.

Ossining, N. T., Nov 22.-Charles w. Johnson, the prisoner who was miss ing in Sing Sing prison Saturday evening, was caught late last night by n ruse. It was not believed in the pris- on he had got outside the walls, bur he had.
 At 1O.3O last night the big whistle in the prison sounded 70. K" This meant that search had been abandoned and that the guards who were watch ing the roads might come in or go to their homes. The cordon of guards and Keepers had been instructed to re- main oil the alert until single blast was sounded on the whistle. The blast came within fifteen minutes after 70. K" sounded.
 Johnson had climbed the iron fence which is the western boundary of the prison, dropped into the river. had swan outward beyond the north wall and then up the river to the dock just north of the north wall and had coll cealed himself under the dock.
 His sufferings since Saturday night must have been fearful, but he re- mained concealed until ten minutes after the 90. K.' whistle sounded. Then he was sighted climbing up the bling and wns seen to drag himself. on to the dock. He lay there, exhaust ed, and when he started to struggle to his feet, two guards seized him.
 Johnson is the young Swede who was convicted of the murder of George Abbott, an old Brooklyn junkmari. He went to Sing Sing two weeks ago. It is said he vowed that lie would es- cape and kill Oscar Dahlgren, his ac- complice in the crime, who turned StatA's evidence
