THREW HIMSELF
 UNDER LOCOMOTIVE
Dramatic Death of George Evan a Former Resi-
 dent of Douglas

George Evan, formerly of Phoenix but latterly of Douglas, sprang on the Maricopa & Phoenix railroad Satur- day morning sustaining injuries that produced almost instant death, says the Phoenix Gazette.
 Evan left Tempe Saturday morning ostensibly to walk to Phoenix but be- fore leaving the south side of town he remarked that he would as well be dead as alive. The exact cause of his desDondency is not known here.
 He walked out of town towards Phoenix and he doubtless continued to brood and when he met the train that killed him a few miles south of town he decided to court death. It may be that he left Tempe with the intention of throwing himself under the wheels of the first train he met.
 The train that killed Evan was the passenger that leaves this city at $40 o'clock for the south side. It was in charge of Conductor c. s. Montgom- cry with Engineer Fred Phelps at the throttle and Arthur Beal firing.
 As the train approached the side track about five miles south of this city a man was seen standing on the track. He saw the train and there fore the engineer had no occasion to slacken as the man was clear of the track
 The engine was stopped as soon as possible and the injured man picked up and carried on to Tempe. At that place he died as he was being taken from tha troir ,t-itbov+ a,,a- ragoipino consciousness.
 r There it was learned that he was a sausage maker who had formerly worked for s. J. Tribolet in this city.
 At the butcher shop it was learned that he was George Evan. He came here from California a little over a year ago and worked for MT. Tribolet a short time. When he left it was in response to message announcing the illness of his wife.
 It was later learned that the tele. gram was fake but is is understood that the deceased was really married
 From here he went to Douglas and shortly after his arrival there he fell heir to a fortune. He went to the St. Louis fair.
 The cause of his rash act is a matter for conjecture. He was a sufferer from rheumatism and this may have prompted him to take his own life. The fact that he was walking led some to believe that he had run through with his fortune and this was respon- sible for his self destruction.
 Evan was a man about 35 years of age and weighed abour 22O pounds. He sustained no injuries in the acci- dent except the blow on the head which produced his death, fracturing the skull

RARE BIOLOGICAL SPECIMENS.
Vile Beasts from the Remotest Parts
 of the World.

Of the Barnum & Bailey Greatest Show on Earth, which comes here on Wednesday, October 4, it is said that it owns and exhibits more rare ami mals than any exhibition in tine world, and aside from the attractions of the fine circuses. double menageries, and hippodromes, the grand spectacle and the splendor of the aerial display, it is worth many times the admission fee to the show to inspect the zoologic- al wonders.
 Using the most modest language possible, 1t is only truth to say that 1t is the best and most varied collection of wild, rare and curious animals ever seen. The animals of the Tuminant tribes are particularly rare, and here are splendid specimens of their kind. Rare specimens of Alpine, African and Asian antelopes are shown, among them the eland, an oryx, a nylghau, a springbok, and very rare Niger an telope, a herd of Transvaal giraffes, a baby elephant and mother, "Speck. {" the smallest horse in the world, and team of four zebras.
 The animals of the eat kind are, without question the finest. whether taken singly or collectively. There is one cage of five grand, fUllgrown lions; another contains. several fe- males. There is another cage of four enormous tigers-one of them said to be the largest in captivity. The leop- ards are beautiful specimens of their kind-one being Dlack-and there is another cage of ferocious partners. There is a cage of laughing hyenas and another of Siberian wolves. There are number of the largest bears in captivity. The only performing his popotamus in the world is there weighing over two tons There is the

RAILROAD EMPLOYEES HOURS.
Reduction to Be Asked for All Over

Reduction to Be Asked for All Over
 the Country.
 Chicago, Sept 27.-The Tribune to- day says:
 Preparations are under way for a concerted movement on the part of hl> big railroad brotherhoods to secure S reduction of the present working hours for railway employees all over the coun- try. The movement already has been discussed in the grand councils of the organizations. It is expected that it will assume definite form within the next two months.
 The grievance committees of many western railroads will gather in Chi cago in December to discuss desired changes in working conditions. At the same time the schedules governing wages and hours will expire on at least three western roads, the Northwestern, the Burlington, and the St Paul. Ac- cording to plans now laid the opportun- ity will be seized to broach the pro posed demands of the employees.
 The present hours of work on the railroads range from ten to fourteen, but in no case are they fixed. This is due to the nature of the employment. The brotherhoods, 1t Is said, have no intention of appealing for limited work day. They have planned rather to secure a general reduction which shall be proportionate in all branches of the railroad service.

 Branford. Sept 27.-Captain and Mrs Willis Linsley of Branford returned from Yonkers, N. r., Monday after noon, where they had been called on Saturday by a telegram from Mrs Linsley's cousin, Ernest I4ongbotham. announcing news of the recovery of the body of their son Harold. who was drowned Labor day by falling from the deck of his fathers schooner. the Henry Willis, in East river. while en- gagged in throwing hawser. On thelt arrival in New York they found that the body had been buried by the city. Their cousin in New York had been watching for tidings of Harold, and it was he that found the clue. He wis lted the coroner's office a number of times, but could get no news of body answering the description. Finally he asked if any body had been found on which was a key and was informed that a man six feet one inch in height had been found. and among the effects was d key. A diagram of the key was made and 1t was this that identified the body as that of Harold Llnsley. the key belonging to the door of the cabin on the schooner Henry Willis.

SALARIES OF JUDGES
Judge Reed the Only One who Draws
 the Increase.

Attorney General King will have a conference to-day with Judge Stought- on regarding the proceedings which the latter has instituted to test the constitutionality of the act of the gen eral assembly at its recent session which gives to each judge of the su perior and supreme courts $6,000 a year in addition to the regular allow ance of $1,500 year for expenses. So far only Judge Reed has benefited by the act, as he was appointed subse- quent to the passage of the act of 1903 and he has drawn his $500 q month regularly since his appointment last November, in addition to $375 quarterly for expenses. Formerly judges were required to file n stafe- ment or bill of their expenses, but now they simply draw the amount all lowed, and give receipt therefor. With $7,5O0 year coming in 1t is con sidered that no judge of the state need fear the wolf or the possible rise in the price of coal this winter.
 Judge Thayer is entitled to the in crease as he was appointed on his present. IcTn SuuScQuchL Io IhC poS sage of the law. but he only draws his salary and expenses at long inter- vals and has not yet drawn salary on his new term of office The other Judges have not drawn the increased salary under the act of 1905, the con stitutionality of which is to be testeti The salary of the chief justice is $4,- 300 a year and S1,500 for expenseii $500 more than the regular salary O. judge, under his original appoint ment

TO NEW YORK, 10 UENIS. Ticket Spectators Bitten Badly--Had to Sell for Little or Nothing.

Hartford, Sept 27.-The scene a. Union station yesterday morning prior to the departure of the excursion to New York, resembled scene on the stock exchange when the market Is going all to the bad.
 Ticket spectators had invested heav- fly in tickets and had counted on being able to close out at the last minute at a nice profit. Contrary to their expec- tations they found no buyers and what sales they made were at great sacrl- flee. Naturally they were greatly ex- cited and from one end of the station to the other men rushed waving bunch es of tickets above their heads and be seeching people in breathless manner to buy their tickets.
 Every man or woman that ap- preached the station from any direction at that hour had forcibly to brush past the ''scalpers." who were being scalpcd at their own game. The excursion tickets sold for $1.25. That entitled a person to ride to New York and back, the only specification being that the ticket be used on the special train. This low rate and the fact that the number of tickets was limited made them sell rapidly until the number was exhausted, and 1t is said that the spec ulators captured nearly the entire sup ply. A few sales were made during the past day or two at $2, but people seemed very unwilling to tip off the scalpers. The latter consoled them selves with the thought that the last minute they would come in and the public not being able to procure tickets at their own price would pay what | ever was asked.
 At the very last. however, the tickets went at a mere song. The prevailing price seemed to be 25 cents. One man asked speculator what he would sell | for and the man offered his tickets for % cents each. The man bought his entire supply at that rate and then turned speculator himself, jumping on the train and going to New York to get rid of the pasteboard slips.
 Some even went lower than that. One man purchased ten tickets at 16 cents each. The spectators were all Hartford men. The hack drivers went into It with all the money they could get hold of and there were woe-begone faces among them all day.
 To New York and return for l5 cents seems almost like a dream, but those who paid the piper are wishing they could wake up and find 1t so.

INDEPENDENTS ARE HOT.
They Throw Some Things at
 New Team.
To the Sporting Editor of the Demo

To the Sporting Editor of the Demo
 crat:
 There has been considerable discus sion for the past week or more as to whether we have lawful right to claim the championship of Waterbury and as several of the professional players are in town many people think a team could be picked up including them, that would trim the Indepen- dents, and furthermore, one of our players who was released, has picked a team to go to Stamford Sunday and play the strong team of that town un- derhidding us. Now Stamford. want ed our team providing Roger Connor played with us and we tried to se- cure his services but he had already promised to play with Camps team in Stamford, so 1t must be that they have two games there or they are do- ing business with two separate teams for we booked to play them for a guarantee of $S5 with a privilege of 40 per cent. of the gross receipts. But now we learn this other Waterbury team is going to play there, they uI- derbiding us, and claiming to have a faster team
 Their team will have Fitzpatrick, O'Rourke. Lachance, Joe Connor, Rog- CT Connor, Camp and Thompson in their lineup and they intend to play us also.
 Now we hereby challenge this same said team to play game or series of games, the first to be played in Nau- gatuck Saturday afternoon, for side bet and the championship of the city; but they must cut out getting pro fessional pitcher from outside to do the twirling for them unless he Is resident of this city.
 We will have our regular team and will meet their manager at the Demo crat office at s o'clock this evening and make arrangements, thereby set ting all disputes as to who are the champions of the city.
 Thanking you for your valuable space and hoping they will put in an appearance,
 EDWARD V. CURLEY,
 Mgr. Waterbury Independents.
