BANK STREET FLOODED.
second Time within Week for This
 Sort of Accident.

Bank street, between Jackson street and the Waterbury Farrel foundry, was flooded this morning for the sec ond time within a week and from the same cause, the blowing out of a plug in a water pipe. A new 14-inch pipe is being laid in Bank street to replace the old S-inch pipe and while the work Is being done temporary pipe to TUT nash water to part of Brooklyn IS being used. This morning about 9:SO a plug in the temporary pipe at the corner of Bank and Jackson streets blew out and the water burst forth ln torrents, shot up in the air and across Bank street and dashed in volumes against the windows and walls of the office of the Connecticut Railway & Lighting Go. Though the men hustled around and had the water turned of fan about five minutes yet in the mean time Bank street was flooded and traffic was suspended.
 While the repairs were being made, a period Of about fifteen minutes, the employees of 'Hellmann's brewery and Ehe cold storage plant had to stop l4work owing to lack of water.

WORK NEARLY ENDED.
Assessors will Finish Listing of PrO-
 perty This Evening.

Tha assessors office will close for t8he listing of property for the present kwear at o'clock tonight. A great Emany called the past few days, but the sRush was not what was expected to- nay; probably 1t will be better this hevening. There appeared to be less bnoise in the office during the past nuonth than usual during the listing of Eproperty, though, to be sure, once in while a fellow got out of sorts and said some funny things. This morn Ing, for example, when one of the as- sessors asked man If he was not go- ann to make note of his wagon he remarked rather sharply that he would if it were necessary and want ed to know if they wished to have Aim bring in 01is wheeIbarrow. Next fweey< the board will commence its reg ular tour of the city with view to finding out how truthful people who nalied upon them were. The asses sors ought to have a more roomy of lice and 1t should adjoin the town clerks office so that they would not have to be running through the lobby when they want to look up records. 4fhe present quarters are too small and 1t is hoped that the proposed plan for remodeIling the City hall will con tain something which will give people h chance Do turn around there without stepping on each others toes.

HURRAH FOR THE FOURTH.
Business Men Arrange Big of the
 ercises for Next MO nday.

The display of fireworks which will be given on the evening of July 4 will be the best to be obtained for the money placed at the disposal of the committee. This display will be fully as elaborate as those given in Hart ford and other cities much larger than Waterbury, and it will be identical with the display to be given in New ark, N. J.
 This display will consist entirely of aerial pieces, and it may therefore be viewed at better advantage at a slight distance from the place where they are to be set off. In this con- nect1on the following locations are places from which the most favorable view may be secured: Morningside, Watertown road from the Driving park, Warren park, Highland park,

WILL BURKEL SAVES A GIRL
FROM DROWNING.

While passing over the Broadway
bridge Saturday afternoon VIM.
Burkel, the drayman, saw Eva Gen.
dron, little daughter of Jos. Gendron,
slip of the boom below the bridge,
into the water which must be nearly
thirty feet In depth. Mr.. Burkel at
once went to the spot. The girl had
already gone down three timee, when
Burkel. who Ia good swimmer and
diver, plunged in the water. He dove
down and took hold of the girl, who,
as is often the case. gripped him 90
violently as to make it difficult fol
him to move, and there was danger
Of both drowning. By great exer'
tion, the rescuer reached the boom
and was helped out with his burden,
nearly exhausted. Rescuer and rescued
soon recovered, however.
The boom timbers are narrow and
generally wet and slippery. and thu
practice many children have Of walk
ing on the boom should be stopped.

BASEBALL

The local team was defeated at
Brainerd Sunday 10 to 0. The Brain
erd Dispatch gives the following &C.
count:
The Little Falls baseball team, re-
juvenated, resuscitated and revived,
came to Brainerd yesterday tc do
things to the locals and they were out
for gore az each manager had wagered
$50 on the side that he could win,
but the boys from down the line re-
turned home sadder but wiser lot of
baseball players then they we're two
or three days ago, for it was an awful
slaughter as the score will indicate,
10 to 0 in favor of Brainerd. There
was some kicking on the decisions of
Umpire Ole Peterson in the fourth
inning when he called man running
for Little Falls out at the home plate
and 1t was possibly justified. There
was question Of doubt here and
there were two or three similar deci-
sions, but in the aggregate this
would make no difference. the Little
Falls boys could not win and there
was no use talking. Talking about a
comedy of errors, the game on the
part Of the Little Falls bunch was
something fierce. Doty was as wild
as March hare and Batters, who
was behind the bat, was even wilder
in hia attempt to try and hold the
balls They were at times like a
rolicking lot Of school kids and chased
the bail around among the weeds like
Indians. They had secured the
mighty Doty to do the twirling, he
the man with the left wing like an
old fashioned windmill, :. but even
with his mighty swing the home boys
found him for ten safe ones. He did
good work, however, striking out
eight men and had he had any sup
port the game might have been differ
ent. There were several other new
men in the Little Falls lineup, picked
up from Shakopee to Northome, but
they were only few when it came
to playing ball and some of the old
stagers would have made better
showing. Jim Boyle was on the slab
for the locals and held the Little
Falls boys down to hits. He man.
aged to keep them we'll scattered and
there was nothing doing in the scor.
ing line at all He had gilt edge
support, the strong breastwork Of the
Boyle brothers and cousins in the
infeld making it almost impossible
to get ball outside the diamond.''
