BROOKLYN BRIEFS.

D rectory by the Rev Father Gleeson this morning.
 A visitor to Brooklyn would hardly realize that to-day was Flag day as "Old Glory" was seen in very few places. Have the people of Brook lyn lost their patriotism or was it just oversight?
 Mrs Michael Fitzpatrick has ar rived from Providence to join her husband who has taken a position with the Waterbury Farrel Foundry and Machine company.
 -In Concordia hall this evening a dance will be given by the Italian colony for the benefit of the sufferers of the Mt Vesuvius eruption.
 -Janitor Herman of the Duggan school does not intend to allow any one in Brooklyn to have better look ing lawn than his so he was out bright and early this morning mow- ing the grass and putting the yard in shape.
 Although at first it was thought that no one was injured by the fall- ing of the derrick into the Nauga- tuck river on Tuesday it was later learned that couple of painters working on Wards flats were bruised and cut somewhat by being struck with the cable.
 --"Chick" Lahey of Brooklyn is the latest Waterburian who is after the scalps of the mitt artists around the state and Is also willing to take on some of the local boxers who think they are the goods in the lightweight division. Chick" is we'll known in this section and is rather husky youth. Although he has not been in the business long he is neat little fighter and will un- doubtedly put up a good showing when he makes his first appearance before the public.
 Among those who attended the centennial in Meriden to-day were Patrick Clark, Edward Ray, Matthew Dunphy, William Dunphy, John Ma lone, William Devine and John B. Mahaney.
 Miss Elizabeth English of North Riverside street is confined to her home with sickness.
 Peter Cutiez who was injured on Monday by the falling of the bank of the sewer which is being construct ed in Fourth street is much im- proved.
 Mrs Della Sabus, wife of Joseph Sabus of Summit street has been To- cated in Boston with John Bartinc- kas with whom she ran away on the seventh of May taking with them about $290 which belonged to Sabus couple are at Watertown, Mass. a small village near Boston and last evening Detective Keegan left for the Bay state to bring home the run aways who will perhaps have to face the court in this city. Sabus and his wife lived with their children at 13 Summit street up to the time of the incident and everything seemed to be progressing nicely there until one afternoon the husband returned from work to find a note on the table tell ing him that his wife had deserted him. Bartinckas was also found to be missing as we'll as $290, $200 of which was the property of Sabus while the other s90 belonged to his brother.
 There will be a meeting of the Brooklyn and Town Plot association tomorrow evening. As far as is known there Is no new business to come before the body although sever al committees which are now out working will be heard from. The Town Plot delegation headed by Hans Ransmussen will undoubtedly have their regular seats and will be just as much interested in the doings of the organization as they have been all along. It begins to look as though the committee will have to work like beavers If 1t wishes any thing to be done in regard to the elevating of the Bank street bridge for the bridgeworkers are here and are beginning operations close to the Bank street structure. There is no telling how soon the Penn Steel Con- struction company which is doing the work for the New York, New Haven < Hartford road will begin operations on the Bank street pons. but at any rate the committee has not much time to spare If 1t intends to make final efforts to get the bridge raised. From the grandstand 1t ap- pears as though the bridge will not be raised despite the efforts of the committee. The company has its plans all formulated and there is not much hope of having them changed.
