'Her Fatal Love-" a new melodrama
by Lem 3. Parker, produced by Vance
& Sullivan was the attraction at the
I.yceum Theatre yesterday and it made
a good impression. The play is a thrill
er and is replete with clever and ex-
citing situations. Yesterday was its
first production and judging from the
manner in which Il was received it is
going to be one Of the successes of
the season. The same production will
be given this evening and. to-morro
afternoon and evening. There ought to
be no doubt about the success of the
piece.

ST MARY'S HOSPITAL
Two Important Hearings Sche- duled at Hartford Thls Week.

The bill to incorporate St Mary'1 hospital will be given hearing be- fore the committee on interpretations next Thursday in the Capitol. It 10 expected that number of people from Waterbury who are interested in the matter will be on hand. The resolution to endow the hospital with an annual appropriation of $b.OOO will come up later. Before the hos pital could be allowed any funds from the state 1t would be necessary to have the establishment incorporated. It is not expected that either matter will meet with any opposition.
 The incorporators are the Right Rev Michael Tierney, D. D., bishop of the diocese of Hartford; the Very Rev John Synott of Hartford, vicar general of the diocese; the Right Rev William J. Slocum. pastor or the church of the Immaculate Con- ception; T. F. Carmody, Mortimer Heffernan and Patrick Holohan or this city.
 The Waterbury hospital for many years has received $5,0OO annually from the state and the incorporators of the new hospital believe that the legislators will look with favor on the application for state aid.

HORSE RAN AWAY.
Bristol Couple Had a Mishap While
 Enjoying Sleighride,

The fine weather of yesterday prompted P. H. Corden of Bristol to take his best girl out for spin and once together in the cutter they com menced talking about their future plans and never bestowed thought upon anything else until they ar rived in Waterbury, when MT Cor den brought his horse to a standstill in Brooklyn and went into con- fectionery store to purchase bag of candy for his fair companion. While thus engaged the horse got scared at something and started off, and the young woman not being an adept with the ribbons was not able to control the animal and before it had gone far the sleigh was tipped over and the girl landed in snow2 ank The horse galloped off and in time freed itself from the sleigh and con- tinued it's mad run through the cen ter and down West Main street. The aid of the police was invoked to lo- cate the missing horse, but not until a late hour was it discovered by Officer McEvoy somewhere in the vi- cinity of the railroad station at Crane street. It was taken to the court house stables and turned over to Mir Corden this morning, who was very glad to get 1t and thanked the officers for the interest taken in his case. He appeared to be a good natured fellow, but just the same he said while women are all right he wouldn't advise anybody to trust one of them with a horse.

CONDON PROTESTS
Says He Had Votes But the Bal
 l0t Box Closed Too Early.
Waterbury, Feb II, '07.

VdtcIuuIy, rcu II, Va' Editor Evening Democrat:
 Dear Sir: If you could afford some of your valuable space would like to express only part of my opin- ion in relation to the ''voting contest" for the most popular F. of A. man. l was contestant. got beat square, but not fair. I was new contestant. I thought 1t was friend- ly, and for the good of the order. This was my motto. These were my objects, but it seems 1t was different with my opponents. Their object was to defeat me by hook or crook. They conceded the election early in the evening to me. At seven minutes to II I with my friends went to ar range our accounts, and stayed until three minutes to II, when we were coming back with almost as much money as all of the other candidates put together, I met the push" going to the counting room with the bal lot" box. giving me the laugh and saying You're too late" Then what could do but keep in my pocket the votes of my many friends who worked so hard and faithful to elect me by honest votes (and not by oats).
 have protest entered already which will be aired out in the ex- ecutive chamber in relation to the time the polls were closed. Without any further comment wish to thank my numerous and old friends for the many favors in the past and especial ly the present. Respectfully yours,
 J. H. CONDON.

WATERBURY SPEEDWAY.
Two Ringers Here Yesterday, But
 They Failed to Get Race.

Waterbury's speedway in the west end is certainly getting popular and a big crowd was on hand yesterday afternoon, expecting to see some fast races between the supposedly pest horses of the city. Although some or the brushes were lively, the crowd was disappointed because of the faii- ure of the local star steeds to par ticipate to any extent in the events of yesterday. Perhaps they were somewhat leery of taking chance in the brushes because of two dark horses here from Middletown.
 The horses from the asylum city were Frank Goes "Eckstin" and bii- lie Atwell's Grace M." The owners are good friends of Bill" Hotchkiss and having heard much of Water bury's speedway came over yesterday to have few friendly races. MT Hotchkiss declares 1t was not their intention to endeayor to defeat any particular Waterbury steed and de- nies that he is thinking of purchas- ing either animal.
 The story got around that the visi- tors were In town simply to try their horsefesh against Maurice NoOnan's "Grace Davis." but Maurice evident ly was not in the mood for winning blue ribbons yesterday and gave the Middletownians no opportunity to get a line on his thoroughbred. Eek stin," which is an old horse, has . mark of 2:10, but is unable to go at such a pace, although 1t is still a fairly good sprinter.
 Grace M." is in the 2:24 class and is able to cover ground quickly. It has a nice stride and attracted fla yorable comment yesterday. The horses certainly were the exposure of the optics of the crowd and for time the ''horsies" of this city had to occupy the background.
 On the firing line yesterday were Tom Butler and his world beater. Dr Chipman with his Wilton Boy" Hal Curtiss and his high stopper. Clark Atwood with his wonder which dur ing the afternoon won couple of heats, and the steeds of Ben Gibson. Hal Delage, w. H. Hallock, Hotch- kiss's mare driven by William Wal ker, and new one driven by l.. Quitmarsh The last named horse Is no beauty. but it can pick up its feet with the best of them and should make a noise in the future. The crowd, if 1t wishes to enjoy this sport. should make 1t point to keep the course clear and not overrun 1t as was done yesterday. There Is no reason for spelling the view of others and worrying the drivers by blocking the road.

THE POLICE COURT.
William Leonard Testified Against
 His Wife This Morning.

Three young men, deeply intoxi- cated. challenged Attorney N. P. Bronson's right to the highway near the Prior place on the Middlebury road yesterday afternoon. They gave their names in the city court to-day as Joseph Driscoll. Louis Wilcox and Frederick Rodman and all pleaded guilty to the charge of intoxication. Attorney Bronson testified that it was for their own benefit he had them arrested. He was driving out the Middlebury road when he saw them falling all over the highway and at length one of them fell pros trate and. on account of the banks of snow on each side of the narrow driveway. 1t was impossible to go through without walking or running over the man. They seemed to be re- spectacle young men who had im- bibed too freely. A fine of S7 and costs was imposed in each case.
 William Leonard testified against his wife. Lizzie. to the effect that she has made his life miserable and he cannot stand it any longer. "She beats the children" said Leonard. 'and she beats me and only I'm a tough man I could not stand it." Mrs Leonard was committed to Brookside for thirty days. Since last October she has paid in fines about s31.
 Michael Lynch was fined SIC and costs for intoxication and Charles Parker s and costs.
 Martin Mcdonald was let 20. it being his first appearance.
 Angelo Pace paid S for allowing his dog at large and two small boys. Antonio Biondi and Michael Rorso. each paid 6 for throwing snow balls.
