Waterbury evening Democrat., 1906-03-27
BROOKLYN BRIEFS.


 Moral club this evening.
 Miss Mary Herman of Torring- ton is visiting Miss Ethel Barry of South Wilson street.
 John Lucey of New Haven has returned after spending few days with friends in this section. Miss Margaret Cronan of South Leonard street. is able to be around after a few weeks illness. Joe, the barber who was formerly employed in Rocco Di Orio's shop on Bank street, has sent word that he had very pleasant voyage on his return to his home in Italy.
 Whats the matter with laying a crOsswalk from South Riverside street to North Riverside. One is badly needed at this point and it seems strange that it his not been built before now.
 Baseball enthusiasts will have a chance to see Bill Dwyer and Red" Moran, in all probability when Niagara plays the state league team here next month. Other Wa terbury fellows may also be found among the ranks of the students.
 John Edmonds of Torrington has. returned after spending few days at his home in this section. Edmonds has not as yet signed with any ball team for the coming season and in all probability will play in the shop league in Torrington.
 -Faunsey Vallone is training hard for his coming bout which is to be with former Brooklyn boy. The encounter will be held privately and will be for good side bet. Vallone is getting in condition at the rooms of the Brooklyn Athletic club.
 The number of scarlet fever cases and measles in this section has decreased considerably and there are very few to be found at present. Because of the carefulness of the board of health, the educational commissioners and the doctors who attend the children at the schools contagious diseases have very little chance to spread. The school doc tors examine the children carefully and regularly and case that is at all suspicious is promptly looked after.
 Work was commenced to-day on building the addition to the Bank street school as recommended by the board of education some time ago. It is planned to have six new rooms but it is not likely that all will be ready for the fall term. The school mas been rather in need of room and as the other schools in this locality are in about the same fix 1t was de- cided to build on the Bank street. The new rooms will be built on the rear of the school. As yet workmen have not started to illuminate the clock.
 It is not surprising that the Brooklyn residents should make a howl about conditions existing at the bridge on Bank street near Riv- erside. This morning because of the melting of the snow and slight rain it was one of the most disagreeable spots to be found in the city. Wagons as they struck the place went into a hole two feet deep and pedestrians who were compelled to pass under the bridge were encountered with muddy water which fell from the trestle above. The ground under the bridge certainly needs cleaning for as it is now 1t may be regarded as one of the worst eyesores in the city.
 Although he will undoubtedly not enter the race the coming fall several politicians would like to see Attorney James M. Lynch enter the race. They believe that he would have an excellent chance of getting the place should he make a bid for it. It is the fourth and fifth wards that elect the senator from the sixteenth district, and is as good as an election. As Senator Phelan the last repre- sentative from the sixteenth was from the fifth ward the fourth ward CTS think that one of their number should receive the plum the coming election. It is not thought that Mir Lynch will consent to oppose Sena- tor Phelan. but If he should he is certain to make hot fight.
