DOGS ON NORTH SQUARE,

There are more dogs to the square foot between North Main, Cooke, Grove and Hopkins streets than in any other part of the city, and not one quarter of them are licensed. Dogs both licensed and unlicensed are so numerous in the north end that they are one of the biggest nuis- anes the people have to contend with. There are dogs that bark at the moon and dogs that bark at the sun. Some bark when 1t rains and some bark when it doesn't rain. Others chase teams and some chase pedestrians. Some are so inquisitive they do not hesitate to snap at ones pedals, to see what kind of stuff they're made of. There are brave dogs and coward ly dogs, and the majority of them are forever making an uproar bark ing and snarling at each other, at something or at nothing. Apparently it makes no difference to them what they are barking or snarling at so that they are making clatter and a nuisance of themselves. 1t would pay the dog catcher to visit the vicin- fty.

QUEENS DAUGHTERS
Have Decided to Continue Their Fes'

STILL III THE BALANCE
watssbssy's TSnuss If oAlcs 1ill
 fifhtiAf uard.

Considerable influence is being brought to bear upon the "big guns" all over the state in favor of the ten tre of office and pension bill charter amendment for Waterbury. The legls- lators don't like it but the men back of it are so powerful they are in quana- ary to know what to do in the prenli- ses. A man whose. influence was sought in behalf of the bill answered by stating that he is in the same posi- ton as many of his colleagues, adding that he knows 1t Is sort Of hearsay not to fall into line with everything the republicans of Waterbury want, Dut that there is limit to the power yesr ed in the legislature and he feared Wa terbury was trying to force the general assembly beyond that point. He hopes the time is not far distant when hls party in this city will be. able to win all the offices at popular elections so that the legislature may be spared 'the humiliation and un-American princl- pie" of depriying the municipality CT at least a small measure of home rule. The outlook for the success of the bili is not bright, but its advocates are still hopeful, and if the worst comes they have decided to drop the teachers and concentrate their forces on the superln. tendent.
 It was said to-day that the change in the fire charter amendment was no surprise to the party managers, all be ing fully cognizant of the scheme, even Third Assistant Walker, who was leg estated out of office, was acquainted with the plan of action.
 The taxpayers in the republican camp are now beginning to feel alarm ed at the way things are being done and want to know where they are go- ing to get oil.
 The upheavel in the police depart ment will cost an additional sum of $2,OOO annually for one office and no doubt considerable in other ways. II this outlay was likely to strengthen the efficiency of the department nobody would find fault, but when there is nothing in sight but a reward for parry loyalty then the situation assumes an- other aspect and the republican who
 has to help foot the bills feels that he is in exactly the same box as his neighbor who prOfesses the opposite political creed. Some of them are talk ing of a citizens ticket for the next local election. hut they will be apt to forget themselves when that time comes around and flock to the standard of the 2. o. p. What q surprise the
 politicians would get if the people S lected their thoughts just for once and acted for themselves and the whole
 community instead of being led by the
 nose in the interest of few clever | fellows who have happy faculty of talking electors into the belief that
 the well being of the town demands | the retention of certain men in office
 right along. Such thing may hap pen, but it is extremely doubtful.

R. c. Dun | Co.'S Report of Business
 Outlook.
 NEW YORK, May 13.-R. c. Dun X Co.'s weekly review of trade says:
 Unsettled weather still retards retail trade, and uneven distribution of mois- ture prevents crop prospects from at- taining an ideal position, but the gener- af result is much better than normal and far more satisfactory than at this time in 1904. Mercantile payments are fairly prompt. money is easy and abun- dant, while confidence in the future Is the ruling sentiment.
 The decline in Wall street to the low est average for the sixty most active railway securities since last January has had no perceptible influence on business, and railway earnings contin- ue to make favorable comparisons with last years figures, the early returns for April showing a gain of 9.7 per cent Manufacturing activity is unabated.

FREE LUNCHES.
Bars Not Sspplisd With TAsm CaA.
 not Compete With Others.

The news of the defeat of the screen law bill in the legislature was received with joy by local liquor deal CTS. What they want, they say, Is . bill against providing free lunch to their customers. Some of them would rather pay $1,OOO for. license than be compelled by the competition i'll the trade to maintain free lunch bar. Some time ago a united effort was made to dispense with this fea- ture of the liquor traffic. For a. time it was successful. but gradually the dealers returned to the old rut from which they had cried for help and now it is as general as ever. Yet they are complaining now louder than ever before against the expense of the free lunch bar, which they say. has become so elaborate as to be more costly than the liquor license it. self. The bill which has been defeat ed would, if passed, remove all ob- structions to the bar during business and after hours. Such law the liquor dealers say. would work havoc with the business in any city like Water bury

HAVE NOT BEEN IDENTIFIED
Faces Smashed in MannerIThat Rem
ders Them Beyond Recognition
Bodies Are MangIed.

Two men were run down and killed
instantly Wednesday evening about s.
O'Clock by freight train on the main
line of the Rock Island road in the cut
back of Davenport From reports
that have been received it would
seem that the men were asleep upon
the rails The remains were SO man
gled that they battle all efforts to iden-
tify them. The train was an extra
freight No 1914 coming from Des
Moines under the charge of Conductor
Mckinley
Terribly MangIed.
The train must have struck them
without their knowledge The remains
were SO bruised and broken that they
hardly have any semblance of human
forms. They were passed over by all
the cars in the train The head of the
smaller man was smashed into pulp
from just below the eyes. His body
was literally crushed
The large mans head was severed
from his body and was beaten into an
unreeogDiZable mass His legs were
both broken above the knees and the
large thigh bone protruded through
the flesh The left leg was broken at
the knee and the right leg cut at the
ankle
The clothes of the unfortunate men
were of fairly good material and would
seem that they were workingmen rath-
eT than tramps. One wore black hat
purchased from the Hill Mercantile
company OF Davenport, as the label
would indicate; black suit and heavy
pair OF workingmen's shoes. The 9th
er wore a pair of overalls over dark
coIored trousers and a white hat. The
rest of his wearing apparel was unrec-
equitable.
Collected Remains.
Undertaken Runge and his assistants
were summoned and they collected the
parts of the two men which were scat
tered along the tracks for about 100
wards. A piece of a skull and pair OF
Douglas shoes were found at Fifth and
De Soto streets, several blocks away.
The ears had dragged them that far.
All the remains were taken to the Run
ee undertaking establishment.
Papers found on the bodies indicate
that they had been in Davenport, Peo-
ria, and Burlington, but there was moth
ing to positively indicate who they
were. The inquest began at this ar
teTnOon.
