Thanksgiving
 Day

Is a day when all good citizens will join in offering up thanksgiving for the many favors they have received during the past year, and this year Waterbury has many reasons why sne should be thankful For instance, the taxpayers should feel thankful that they have not as yet had that halr million cinser park crowded on their shoulders; that we have not had more accidents on account of having our streets torn up all o(er the city; that we have had beautiful park tat North Main and Cooke streetsj added to our city; that there hasn't been any one killed on account of the grade or the west side of Baldwin street; that We have turned out one set of R- on election day to make room for another set of R.. And, by the way, we wish to say that we feel more thankful and grateful than any tongue or pen can convey to the people of Waterbury ana surrounding towns for their ever wei come patronage, and we will do in the future as we have done in the past, and that is to give you the very best quality for the price you pay. Our Teas are always carefully selected and will suit the most fastidious. Our Golf fees are always fresh roasted and for palatableness you cannot get as good elsewhere. Remember we sell Butter milk and it's fresh every day. We have few more 14-quart Bread Rais- CTS. one with each pound of our war ranted good Baking Powder, 45 cents per pound, at

The CITY Man.

The city man said he was stuck
Upon the rural life,
No longer wished TO run amuck
In noise and dnst and strife.
Said he: "I'd like to husk the eggs
And dig the now mown hay,
And monkey with the husking pigs
And milk the COWS f'r whey,
I'D Ike to pick the cream and choose
And dig the apple crop,
And drive team of pure white go' sc.
And feed the chickens slop
"It would he fun to groom the pigs,
And curry off the COWS,
And hitch the roosters into rigs
And work tho threshing ploughs.
"TwCuld be treat to shell the oats.
And pick tho buck wheat flour
And gather whiskcrs from the goats
And sort them by the hour.
"Id like to cultivate tho bees
And pump the pale blue milk,
And pick the pumpkins from the trees
And ,lo things of that ilk.
"I'd ike to pick the little lambs
And shear the gentle hens;
And gather in the fresh smoked hams
And put tho wasps in pons.
SIN fact [ think the country life
Would he the thing for me;
I do not caro- for work and strife
I neod tho rest, you see.'

BOWIE OR CARREN
Aldermen May Decide Which Will Bs
 on Beard of Relief.

Regarding the doubt as to which of the Democratic candidates for the board of relief was elected, the city charter has very positive word to say. 1t has been said that because MT Bowe was first nominated for the office, or to use a popular phrase. was given first place on the ticket, he is the one to be elected, though he re. ceived no more and no less votes than his colleague. Mir Garren. Under the head Elections the charter has the following to say: And if, by an equal ity of votes any particular officer be not elected, then the persons receiving such equality of votes shall. except as herein otherwise provided, draw lots under the supervision of the board of aldermen at it's next meet ing and the one upon whom the lot shall fall shall be deemed to be and declared to be elected. and record shall be made of such drawing and the result thereof upon the records of said city,
 As to such a condition as referred to above affecting elections for the board of relief, there is no other pro- vision made. therefore the matter will come before the next meeting of the board of aldermen, which should take place this evening. The question of drawing lots will probably be left to the candidates themselves. There is not the slightest i'll feeling in the mat ter but as it is new thing In local politics the outcome will be watched with interest
