POLICE PROTECTION.
How il Could be nade More Effective
Without Extra Cost.

Public opinion lis very much in favor
Of a return to the custom in vogue in
the police department. some time ago
of detailing supernumerary officers to
do duty evenings instead of spending
all the money appropriated for police
protection on regular linen. At the
present time the regular force is am
pie for day service, but it falls far
short of meeting the requirements
nights, say from 8 o'clock in the even
ing until midnight. The addition OF
one or two regular men would not
amount to much so far as improving
the night service goes, but the number
of supernumeraries that could be en-
ployed four hours each evening for
the salary of two regulars would make
quite a difference and many sensible
people who have no fault to find with
the police department. cannot under
stand why the old plan was aban-
doned and absolutely nothing substi-
tuted instead Under the present plan
some sections of Waterbury never will
have police protection, for it is not
likely that department ever will he
equipped with sufficient funds to po-
lice the entire city with regular men.
Looking at it in this light, does it not
seem reasonable that it would be much
better to spend few thousand dollars
for sA)ecial service during the evenings
and let the men who do night duty
hold their positions in the factories or
wherever they may be employed dur
ing the day time? Unless there is
some very serious objection to this
plan. which the unfnitiated have not
been able to dis~5ver, If put into oper-
alton 1T would give us better police
protection than we are having without
permanently increasing the running
expenses of that department. There
is no need of any more men during the
day tinne, but everybody admits that
the lack of police protection is very
apparent after dark. Assuming that
this is true. does it not look like bad
business policy to talk of adding to the
regular force so long as the remedy can
be met by employing supernumeraries
evenings who will have to be paid
only for such service as they render?
The city wants more men for night
duty and probably for Sundays and
holidays. 1t has lots of very compe-
tent supernumerarfes who are willing
to perform the service for about TWEEN
ty-ffve cents an hour. but the powers
that be. as well as those that have
been, prefer to let the public. suffer in
order to carry out their own idea of
what police department. ought to be.
An appropriation of $4,000 for night
service to be performed by supernu-
merardes would go further towards
meeting the needs of the people than
three times that amounI expended in
making additions to the regular force.

ONE CHINESE VENDOR.
Waterbury Can Buy Produce From
About Every Nationality.

Waterbury has one Chinese vendor
OF farm produce and he appears to be
making heavy inroads upon the pat
ronage heretofore enjoyed by some of
his competitors. This morning he
stopped on Union street quite near
store kept by d man who deals in the
same line of goods which the China
man sells. The storekeeper didn't
like the idea of seeing the Celestial
exhibit his wares at that point and
spoke rather gruff1y to him in a for
eign tongue, evidently telling him to
get out of there. The Chinaman must
have misunderstood what the fellow
wanted, for instead of moving on he
picked up a bunch Of beets in one
hand and a head of cabbage in the
other and reached them towards the
storekeeper, thinking no doubt, that
he was a new customer. This was
the limit. The man on the sidewalk
executed war dance. shouted mo
good,' and pointed proudly to his own
goods at the doorway. The Chinaman
caught on, and hurriedly replacing the
bees and cabbage behind him drove up
the street with broad grin which
showed that he realized the mistake
and possessed enough sense of hurnor
TO feel amused at it,

SOME NARROW ESCAPES.
Exchange Place Good Spot to Judge
Human Nature.

If you want to see some narrow es-
capes from trolley accidents stand i'll
Exchange place any time during the
day or night when the cars are NOV
ing and you will wonder how the Off
GERS on the street and the men on the
cars manage to keep people from get
ting hurt. Many forget all about the
cars and rush onto the tracks just in
time to be ground to death if the Of
ficer and the man who controls the
lever on the car did not have their
wits about them. Shortly before noon
to-day a woman had reached about
the center Of the track opposite Kelly
store when she saw the car, and in
stead of going ahead or stepping
backward she stood where she was.
Officer Tehan was about to jump tor
for her when the motorman applied
the brake and stopped the car just in
a few feet from the lady who appear
ed to be ignorant of the risk she was
running in standing there. The sit1a
ton will be worse later on at that
point when all the turnouts are in and
q seven and a half minute schedule is
introduced When that somes it Will
be necessary to- have at least three Of
flcers on deck all the time, one at the
corner Of West Main and Exchange
place, another at the East Main street
>crossing and one at North Main street
and the officers stationed there will
have their hands full to keep people
out Of the way.

Rasmussen voted to increase the prin-
cinAPS salary TO S600

Rasmussen voted to increase the prin-
cipaPs salary to 5000.
Then the second warm and heated
battle of the evening began. 1t was
over the question of the janitor's sal
airy. Mr. Rasmussen was on the floor
as soon as Attorney Porter L. Wood s
motion to fix the janitor's salary at
$500 was laid before the meeting. He
said: 1.-THE district is going daft. The
position of jandtor is not worth $780,
served as janftor for two years and
know it. $3.50 gets my vote"
Ell. p. Stark said he knew a man
who owned a farm but made only a
scant living from 1t, that would be
willing to take the position for $500.
After Rasmussen had finished anoth-
er speech Porter Wood stated that he
was not willing to brow away 800
and if a man could be found to do the
work properly for $500 he ought to
have it. Committeeman Ayotte. who
hires the janitor, was asked If he was
willing to be janitor for 5000 and he
replied mo"
Attorney Wood withdrew his orig
dna1 motion and moved that the salary
of the janitor should not exceed $780,
Rasmussen was ON his feet In an In
slant and stated that this was only an
other way of increasing the salary to
$500. You stand in your own light, Y
he told the voters.
Finally George Adams made a mo-
ton that the ianftor should be given
$3.50 and dt went through with rush,
even Mr. Rasmussen voting for it. The
meeting then adjourned.
