dASONS PHOTOGRAPHED.
The Tar ON Mullings Roof Was Net
Dry and They Stuck.

Two hundred and twelve delegates
attended the meeting OF the Veteran
Masons' association In Waterbury yes
terday. The visitors were given royal
reception by Harmony lodge and left
singing the praises Of the Brass city.
An incident occurred shortly after the
meeting closed which came near max
ing business good for the local cloth
iers The delegates were photographed
on the roof OF the Mullings block, which
is covered with sand and tar. The
sticky stuff is covered with sand and
small stones SO that when the pho
tographer requested those in the front
row to sit down, they did so without
the slightest hesitancy; but after they
got up and went to knock the dust off
their trousers something stuck to their
hands and upon investigation 1t was
found that the seats of their pants
were smeared with tar. Henry w. At
wood of this city and Thomas FL. L.
Tallcott OF Glastonbury received more
than their share of the stuff and had
a hard time Of it getting to their feet.
Mr. Atwood said to-day that he had
sent a bill to the photographer for a
new suit OF clothes and that he knew
several others who will look for dam
ages, too. The convention held here
was the largest in the history Of the
organization and will be remembered
as the day Of the tar.

FROM POPE Plus x.
Rev Father Karam's Poem Acknowl-
edged by Pontiff.

Rev Michael A. Karam, pastor of
the church Of Our Lady OF LOurdes,
has received a communication from
Pope Plus x, acknowledging the re-
cclpt of letter from Father Karam
continuing a poem on the SEVENTEEN
anniversary of the, pontiffs birthday,
which occurred on June 2. When Faith
er Karam was at Venice some years
ago, the present pope was bishop
and In seeking permission to con-
duct his labors in different
places Father Karam had oc-
casion to petition him once or twice
and was used so cordially he always
kept the incidents In mind and when
his birthday was approaching for
warded him poem OF 10 verses, tile
work of many weeks and great lit
erary effort. The pope was touched
by this manifestion of esteem and
mailed a reply on the day Father Kar-
ANS letter was delivered to him
thanking him for his kind remem-
brance Of him and invoking God
blessing upon him and the work he
has In hand, which include a church,
rectory and school. The basement OF
tho church viii be dedicated on July
a
ing capacity of 1000, is well lighted
and will answer the requirements of
the parish until the rest of the work
Is finished.
An idea of the growth OF tho parish
can be had from Father Karam's re
port OF last year which showed 233
bapdsms, 80 marriages and a very
small death rate. Although half the
present year has not yet elapsed, 100
marriages have taken place at Father
Karam's church and before january
1, 1905, 1t is believed that the number
will have reached at least 300. The
total Italian population Of Waterbury
is between 5000 and 1000 souls, a
pretty good showing in thirty years.
Father Karam Is going ON his sixth
year In this city, and IL he keeps
forging ahead In the future with the
same success that has attended his
efforts In the past, he will soon have
one of the most prosperous parishes

EDWARD LACEY ESTATE.
Relatives Apply at Probate. Court to
he Administrators.

Over the estate left by the late Ed
ward Lacey, who died at his home on
Emerald street last Friday, there prom
ises to be some law. Some of his rela-
dves have filed with the probate court
petition for the appointment of an
administrator upon his estate, and this,
1t Is believed, is merely the preliminary
step in an endeavor to wrest the prop
erty from his widow. The estate con-
sists of two houses on Emerald street
said to be valued at $4,000 There will
be hearing on the petition next Tues
day morning.
Mr. Lacey boarded for long time
with the woman who is now his
widow. She was then Mrs Brophy,
and widow also. He had no immedi-
ate relatives, apparently, and It was be-
heyed he would die celibate. Great
nouncement was made he was to marry
Mrs Brophy.
Soon after his marriage his relatives
filed a petition with the probate court
to have a conservator appointed over
him on the ground that he was reck-
lessly spending his estate Judge Lowe
heard the case and d/smissed it, deem
ing Mr. Lacey sufficiently competent to
take care of his affairs. This, 1t was
said, gave Mr. Lacey the impression
that some Of his relatives were DESTROYS
of getting his property. and in order
to Illustrate them he decided all he had
to his wife, because by giving it to her
in his will they might attempt TO break
