Waterbury evening Democrat. [volume] (Waterbury [Connecticut]) 1903-1917, 1905-09-21
BROOKLYN BRIEFS.

Some of the foreigners in this
section seem to have fondness fol
firearms judging from the actions of
the man in Wards flats the other
evening, and one that frighten-
ed several persons on Ben Mohr last
evening. He had revolver and from
the manner in which he handled the
weapon it is wonder that some one
in the vicinity was not injured. Some
of these fellows should be caught and
severely dealt with, and perhaps Of
ter some time they would cease scar
ing the wits out Of the people With
whom they by chance happen TO
meet.
According to the statements of
resident of Clark street the back
yards in that vicinity are in most
disgraceful condition. 1T is shame
that old fruit is allowed to stand there
in those yards and raise stencil that
is so foul that it is almost unbearable
to pedestrians who are compelled to
pass those places which are proving
such nuisance to people who have
had regard for cleanliness and who
are at all careful about the sanitary
conditions around their home. 1t seems
they think that as long as they keep
within the limits of their yard they
can use their property for any pur-
pose they may see fit not caring in
the least about the feelings of the
property owners who have established
homes there. All summer long this
throwing of decayed fruit in the rear
yards has been carried on by some or
the dwellers on that street and it is
about time that some one would take
the matter in hand and eliminate a
practice which If continued will
spread all sorts of sickness through
the neighborhood.
-Notwithstandin all that has
been said on the subject it looks as
if the authorities are not going to
grant the request which the people OF
this section have presented to them,
that is illuminate the clock on the
Bank street school. A committee some
time ago was appointed to look into
the matter and see what such an I'M
dertaking would cost but that was
all that was done concerning the mat
ter. 1t is a wonder that the people
OF this section do not get after the
city officials and the board of educa-
ton and make their life so miserable
with persistent petitions that they VIII
be compelled to do the work which
so many of the residents are longing
for. And now coming on election the
people should get thinking and elect
men whom they think will'be of some
use to them when improvements are
asked fol-, which will be Of some BEN
eft to the taxpayers Of this distrlct
who are getting tired of paying their
good money and receiving nothing IN
return. Little or no attention is pald
to this locality by the present admin
istration and whatever party wins ID
the coming contest the citizens should
get after them right at the start ana
receive something like suitable Teat'
ment for the following two years.
Many people have never tasted a
real vanilla fiayor-much of the vanilla
sold contains no vanilla at all. You
can avoid that kind by using ours. we
make 1t in our own laboratory from
selected Mexican vanilla beans ana
guarantee its purity. 1t has strength
and delicacy you never find In ordinary
extracts. Try it in your ice cream or
desserts-you'll never use the common
kind after that. Per ounce 10 cents.
Our lemon extract is just as superior
at 10 cents an ounce. AT walkers
