petticoat fashion almost to her heels,
and thus attired they we're made to
march and countermarch among the
hills, presenting themselves at differ
emit points to the view of the enemy
in such way as to give the impress
sion of red-uniformed troops taking
up position. The French were so
puzzled by their appearance that, al
though they landed, they could not
make up their minds to advance until
sufficient time had elapsed to raise
the country and bring forward real
force strong enough to beat them
back. Another case in point was fur
nished by the milkmaids of bort, In
Holland, who gave timely warning OF
the approach of band of invading
Spaniards and thus saved their City.

History of the Society.

About ten and half years ago a few men who had planned to organize a temperance society in Waterbury deemed that the time was ripe to launch forth because of the fact that Ned Murphy was just concluding $ vigorous campaign in this city. Those men, among whom were James H. Freney, John J. Mcdonald, D. T.. Casey. William T. Walsh and Patrick F. Mc1Lahon, deceased. decided to wait upon the Rev J. A. Mulcahy and secure his assistance in this work. As result of Father Mulcahys interest in the cause rally was held one even ing preceding November 19. in St Pat rick's hall, at which time Ned Murphy and Rev J. q. Mulcahy spoke, the lat ter advocating the organization of a total abstinence society among the Catholic men of the city. AS a result of this rally Father Mulcahy called a meeting of all interested in organizing "a temperance society to meet on Sun day afternoon, November 19, in St Pat riek's hall

PLANS FOR THE BIG EVENT
Many Visiting Societies, Bands and Drum Corps to be in the
 Parade.

TLe city is fast getting into holiday attire with view to putting out it's best side to the visitors who will be here tomorrow on the occasion of the annual state parade and field day ex- ercises of the o. T. A. U. The exer- cises will be under the auspices of St Joseph's T. A. A.ssociety of this city. and weather permitting, will be the great est day in the history of the organiza- ton. The presence of so many earnest workers in the cause of total absti- hence will be something unusual in Waterbury, and everybody, whether he be a total abstinence advocate or not will want to give them cordia. reception. The town is noted for it's Hospitality and there is no reason to be- lieve that it's reputation will suffer any in that respect tomorrow. The people of Waterbury take a modest pride in being able to point to the fact that they have in their own community very prosperous branch of the state or ganization. St Joseph's, society with a largo membership and a handsome home of it's own on East Main street It has been the means of saving many young men from ruin and done excel lent work in other directions, so that citizens generally have an interest ! the society and hope to see the parade and field day exercises an honor to the state institution and the whole program carried out in such way that it will be. a credit to Waterbury and the St Joseph's society.
 This is the first time the state union honored Waterbury by it's presence, and the committee is sparing no pains to get things in shape so that when the members return to their homes and get to thinking over the different state parades they took part in they will be forced to the conclusion that the one at the Brass city was the largest and best of all.

POLLOCK LETS THEM IN
Men Who Sued Water Company
Amend Petition.

Judge Pollock today granted the petition
of Parkhurst-Davis and Joab Mulvane for
permission to amend their petitions in
their suits against the Topeka Water
company.
This is the first victory for the plaintiffs
over the water company and practically
insures that the case will come on for
trial In the United States court here and
VIII be heard by jury
The case should be heard at the Novem-
per term OF court, but it is not likely to
be heard at that time. 1t will probably
go over until the next term.
The original petitions as filed against
the water company set up two causes of
action.one that the water company had
violated its franchise contract with the
city and had failed to maintain water
pressure, and second that the water
company had violated an oral contract
with the plaintiffs to keep their stand
pipes full of water. The first cause of
action was knocked out by a demurrer
and the second was also lost on the
ground that it was alleged that the con-
tract was to keep the standpipe full ''at
all times" Judge Pollock held that this
was perpetual contract and an oral con-
tract can not hold for a longer term than
one year. The plaintiffs then asked to
be allowed to amend their petition by in
sorting after the words at all tines the
phrase during the continuation of the
contract, with certain qualifying words
to show that the contract was to be term
mated at any time by either party It
was this amendment to the petition which
was allowed by Judge Pollock

COL. CODY RELENTS.
Buffalo Bill' VIII Withdraw His Di-
vorce Suit, 1t Is Said.

Denver. Col, Sept. 23-Relatfves of
Col. William F. Cody (BuffaIo Bid
have given it out that he would drop
the suit for divorce against his wife on
the charge of having attempted to
poison him. 1t is said that he has
written to Mrs. Louisa Cody, who
manages a magnificent ranch at North
Platte, Neb., that he was miSled in
making the charge, and that he decided
to withdraw the case, which was to
come up in the Sheridan CWyo.) court
this week.
This result is said to be due to the
influence exerted by the various mem
bers of the Cody family and public
sentiment. No answer to the suit was
ever filed by Mrs Cody, who announc-
ed when informed that the suit had
been filed that she would fight the di--
vorce and seek to clear herself of the
charges.
Mrs. Cody was Miss Frederick of st.
Louis, and at the time of her marriage
was a South St. Louis belle. The fam
lily home at Second and Lombard
streets was very popular among young
folk
1t was told at the time the suit was
filed that Col. Cody wished to wed u
younger woman in hopes she would
bear him an heir, the two boys born
to Mrs. Cody being dead. Mrs. Cody
remained loyal to her husband in the
face of the charges against her, and
openly expressed the belief that he had
been unduly influenced by those who
hoped to profit by his gaining control
of his estate, which she would fight to
retain.
