TITLE OR A HEART.

Hurrah for Beauty wanamaker, Of
Colorado!
Many an American girl has traded
her wealth or beauty for a title.
Beauty wanamaker compelled her
sutton TO give up his title in order to
marry her.
The romance began FIVE years ago
at Newport. The wooer was Count
Hans Marx Won wegener, scion Of a
wealthy and titled family Of Berlin.
He fell in love with Miss Wanamaker
on sight. The girl liked him well
enough-as a foreigner.
Most girls would have been fasci.
mated by the title, but Beauty is a
mighty good American.
She has lived mostly on her fathers
big ranch in Colorado. She is an
expert rifle shot and fond Of outdoor
sports, Growing up In the free, wide
spaces she developed into a strong,
h'oHAAAhit e'ipiuit anu iuutptUueul
young woman. She finally told her
German admirer that she did not like
foreigners in general and did not be-
lieve In titles at all.
This young fellow had red blood in
his veins.
He went back to Germany and when
a.
his time expired in the army adjusted
his affairs, renounced his title and
came to this country, announcing his
intention to become an American citi.
zen.
Who could resist such a sacrifice?
He was accepted and the marriage
has taken place.
Pretty romance.
Sensible girl.
Happy Husband.
Take of your hats to plain Mr..
Wegencr, OF Colorado, and his wife.

FOUR BEAT FIVE
 ON THIS QUESTION

Editor of the Democrat:
 Just another word or two about the lighting question from over the bridge. According to the report of the meet ing of the aldermen Monday night, as published in your paper, there were ten members present, five republicans and five democrats. One of the re- publfcans was in the chair, leaving five democrats and four republicans on the floor. When I was in politics the democrats were able to hold their own man to man, but it seems things have changed and at the present day tive democrats are not in it wdth four republicans. If the democrats did not like the report of the board of public works why did they not amend 1t to suit themselves. Four republi- cans could not stop them if they stood together and knew how to vote.
 Your report showed that some of the democrats talked a lot, but if they made any motions or amendments to motions or even said 'no" to what was introduced and passed upon by the four republicans your reporter must have omitted to make note of it. It has come to nice state of things with the democrats of Water bury when four republicans hold up five of them. The democrats should learn how to vote as well as talk.

FORESTERS ARE GROWING
Connecticut Has Distinction of Have
 ing Largest Number.

Hartford, Sept 23.-Grand Secretary Frank A. Hagarty of the Connecticut grand court, Foresters of America, has received the semi-annual report of the supreme court of the order from Su- preme Secretary E. M. McMurty of Brooklyn. The report shows the progress of the organization throughout the country during the past six months. According to the figures, Connecticut has 19,247 Foresters, gain of 456 members. The Connecticut grand court holds record in that it has 8 large per cent of Foresters in propor- ton to population than any other state in the union. The population of the state, based on the census of 1900, was 90S, APO. A little more than two per cent of this number are Foresters. The total membership of the order throughout the country is 22e,081, which is an increase of 4,597 for the past six months.
 Tn connection with the report, Su- preme Chief Ranger John F. Kelly is- sues a statement to the effect that the special desire of the supreme court officers is to increase the membership to 100000 before July 1, 1905. During the year ending June 30, 1004, the net " consisting of 7,107 members. Class in itiations have been found an effectiye means of increasing the membership; they have been tried with marked suc- cess in California and Connecticut, and other states are to follow. New York leads in point of numbers, having 45,- 0SS members. Pennsylvania comes next with 44,563, and Massachusetts is third with 3S,61S. The supreme chief ranger urges financial secretaries to notify the members regularly when they are in arrears, as under the new law member is suspended by his own act when he is in arrears a certain number of months, and no action on the part of his court Is necessary.
 The supreme court officials are con sidering proposition of the Colorado grand court for founding national sanitarium for Foresters at Denver. The Colorado Foresters state that every year the number of members of the order coming from the east to their state in search of health is in creasing. A large majority of them are suffering from pulmonary troubles. and seek the dry climate of Colorado, Utah, Arizona, or certain parts of California for relief. The Colorado Foresters call the decease ''the white mans plague" :" and say that New York, New Jersey, Massac chusetts, Connecticut and Penn sylvania, the first three particularly, seem peculiarly unfortunate Tn this re spect An institution in a location noted for its healthfulness is proposed. where the latest discoveries of science can be used for the patients. A first class institution, capable of accommo- dating Seyentv-five to 100 guests, would machinery and furnishings. Maintain ence would cost $80,0O0 to $50,O00 a year. A uniform assessment of S1 q member, payable in two years, would establish 1t, and cents quarter per member would maintain it.

James Luddy, former resident of this city, was killed by the cars last night near Hazardville, where he had resided for several years. He worked on a farm not far from his own home and was on his way to the house and had reached the railroad crossing when train came along and before he had time to get out of the way he was struck and killed. MT Luddy was about 40 years of age and leaves a widow and five children; also his mother, Mrs Honora Luddy, six brothers and five sisters, Thomas, Timothy, John Peter, William, Pat Mitchell and the Misses Bridget, Nora, Katie and Annie, all of this city with the exception of William who resides in Bridgeport and Patrick of Eliza beth, N. J. When MT Luddy lived in Waterbury he was employed at the Farrel Foundry & Machine Go and was well liked by his shopmates. Later he went to Bridgeport, where he remained for a time, and having an ambition to live in the country he bought a small farm at Hazardville and did such chores as were necessary to keep it in shape himself, besides working for a neighboring farmer. He was hard working industrious fellow and if he had been spared he was bound to succeed. The announce ment of his death was telephoned to Waterbury last night and was receiv- ed with much regret by his family, and also by neighbors, all of whom held him in high esteem.

CITY OWNS SIDEWALKS.
Law In Regard to Repairing Not Giv-
 ing Satisfaction.

The decision in the district court regarding liability for the condition of sidewalks interests everybody and especially real estate owners, many of whom never could be made believe that the walks were not part of their property. To be sure they are obliged to set the curbing and con struct the walks, but after that the city takes care of them Tn some parts of the country the whole of the work is done by the municipalities and after people here realize that the sidewalks belong to the public they will begin to see that it is an injustice to put the full amount of the first cost upon private individuals. There is no more fairness in ordering a property owner to construct a side walk in front of his premises than there would be in sending him no-- tfce to pave the street. The city has control of the sidewalks as we'll as the streets and 1t should construct and maintain both, and then if anybody IS specially benefited by the improve ment let the question be adjusted by the bureau of assessment.
 This plan would be fair to all and would do away with lot of confus- ion and needless expense, too. If the city would set curbing and pave the gutters every place it works street to grade large sums of money would be saved in maintainance, It would not be necessary to lay concrete in all such places. cinders and other materi- al that could be had for the cost of hauling being all that the situation would demand in sparsely settled dis tricts until they built up and the property could afford to bear an as sessment for the completion of the work. It Is true that the new law with reference to repairing walks is not giving satisfaction, but that is due to blunder in the method of carry ing it into effect, which no doubt will be remedied next season.

OLD MAN RUNS AnUCK.
Shoots Robert Burdick Because of
 Love for Hiss Beatrice Winslow

Putnam, Sept 23. Eugene Molony shot Robert Burdick, painter, Wed nesday night at the Burdick house on Oak hill. The bullet went into the right side of the cheek, knocked out three teeth and lodged somewhere in Burdick's neck.
 For some time Molony, who is near ly 60 years old and lives in a log cabin in the woods near Shippee hill; has been infatuated with Miss Bea- trice WinsIow, school girl, aged IT years Molony has tried repeatedly to have her keep house for him, and recently proposed that they get mar. ried. She refused all offers.
 Last night she went to call on the Burdicks. Molony learned she was there and tried to see her. He first shot off a pistol several times around the house and then tried to kill Bur dicks dog. Later he went to the door, called Burdick out and shot him. Molony then skipped. Mir Bur dick will probably recover if blood poisoning does not set in.
 Molony was a member of the Put nam company that went out to the Spanish American war. He has been a familiar figure here for nearly 30 years and is known all over this sec tion of Windham county as a tin peddler.
 Deputy Sheriff George F. Holbrook and Officer Patrick Hayes yesterday afternoon arrested Molony. They found him at work digging potatoes on the farm of Albert Copeland, about a mile and a half west of the village of Grosvenordale. The two officers sur prised him and gave him no chance to show fight. He took his arrest coolly and promises to have something to say in the city court when his case will be called.
