EVERYBODY GOOD.
ProeCutor Says There Is Great Scar.
 city of Business.

According to statement made by Acting Prosecutor McMahon every. body in Waterbury appears to enter, tain the best of feeling toward every body else. There has been a surpris- ing falling off of business in the prose. cutors office. Everybody with a grudge against some one else runs to the prosecutor with his complaint, but even business of that nature is un- usually dull. During the past few days there have not been dozen com plaints made to Acting Prosecutor McMahon, which is the best indica- tion possible that good feeling prevails all over the city. J~..
 When some men or women have T tiff, the first thing they do after it is over is to hie themselves to the prosecutor to have the other parties arrested. When there is a dearth of complaints of that nature business is surely dull in the prosecutors office

AGREED TO DIE.
Han Carried Out Purpose But Woman
 Will Recover.

New Milford, Sept 16.-Willis Gum, aged 36 years, resident of Lanesville about three miles south of this place, committed suicide late last night by taking poison. Jealousy is supposed to have caused the deed, as few hours before the tragedy he was heard in argument with his wife and charging her with going around with other men. It was decided by the couple to commit suicide togeth- CT, but while Gum took his poison directly from the box, his wife dilut- ed hers with whiskey. Tn the case of the latter the poison settled to the bottom of the glass and the amount received did not seriously affect her. Although sick she will recover .

BIG FIRE IN HALIFAX.
Nova Scotian City Rarely Escapes Be-
 ing Wiped Out.

HALIFAX, N. S., Sept. 16.-A fortu. Halifax from a disastrous confiagra- don, but neverthless the city suffered a loss of half million dollars from a fire which swept the business part of was only stayed by the dynamiting of dozen buildings by the sailors from the fleet and soldiers from the garri- son.
 Between and o'clock in the after noon, when the fire was at it's height and fearful southerly gale was push ing it straight toward the heart of the business center, consternatton reigned throughout the entire city. It seemed almost providential when shortly after 4 o'clock the wind suddenly veered to the west and turned the flames along the wharves and warehouses.
 There the fire ragged on lower Water street, practically beyond control, until z o'clock at night, when 200 sailors with torpedo apparatus landed from H. M. s. Ariadne and Indefatigable and with the assistance of 200 troops from the garrison checked further progress by removing, with the aid of dynamite, a dozen small buildings.
 The fire consumed six wharves, two coal piers, two hotels, dozen large warehouses and number of retail shops. The loss of half million is covered by $20O,OOO of insurance.
 During the fire large tree fell, kill ing Flora Ring, twenty eight years, and wounding two others.

necticut this year to be doubtful 1t was noticeable that very few, if any at all, of the delegates outside Hart ford county joined in the expressions of dissent. II wonder if they think this is democratic yearP' asked re publican leader anxiously, referring tO the delegates, who by their silence showed that they shared the sentiment of Mir Bicknell.
 A Democrat reporter dropped into the registrars quarters, room 5, 4o East Main street, this morning, and found MT Flanagan and Mir Chapman full of business preparing the lists for the coming battle of the ballots. They are anxious to see every person who wants to vote at the town election who has changed his residence since the last election, also parties whose names have been inadvertently dropped from the lists and want to be restored. To make good job of this the applicant should appear in person. for there are so many people in town of the same name that a communica- ton containing nothing more than John Smith wants to be transferred from one place to another makes a whole lot of labor for the registrars which would be avoided if Smith would call in person or be more spe- ci1ic in his communication. The office is open days and evenings, and no matter which of the registrars you meet, both are jolly good fellows, you may rest assured of courteous recep- tion. Applications to be made will be received up to October 10 at 5 o'clock in the afternoon. On that date the deputies will be in session in the diff ferent wards, but 1t would be well to bear in mind that no application win be received after o'clock in the, af ternoon In order to avoid confusion when the time limit is nearing ths end. it would be an excellent plan for those who have business to- do With the registrars to pay them visit while they have an opportunity to give you more attention than they can when the rush comes and everybody will want to be waited upon at the same time. See that you are properly listed anyway, no matter which side you decide to vote for. The coming elections have an interest for every body and nobody should say that it Is none of his business which wins and sit down on the fence to see them fight it out. Step in and take hand in the scrimmage one way or the other.

With a few exceptions the speeches at the republican convention in Hart ford were very dull and tedious. Hackneyed phrases, commonplace ex. pressions and cheap platitudes, with deluge of spread-eagletsm, made up the greater part of some of them, and others were spoiled by poor delivery.
 MT Bicknell of Meriden, who present
 ed the name of Governor Chamber lain, was, perhaps, more candid than polite when he declared that Connec- ticut is in the doubtful column. His statement evoked expressions of dis sent from the Hartford county dele gates, but MT Bicknell did not retract his statement and did not notice the dissenters. He afterwards, when spoken to privately on what was con -sdered .sbreak," said he meant every
 sd of if. and that he believed the
