DUBLIN EXPOSITION.
Many from This City Will Pay Ire-
 land Visit.

land Visit.
 A big delegation from this town and other places along the valley will attend the exposition at Dublin, Ireland, this summer. Many are planning to go together, but it is not likely that all will be able to go at the same time. It is understood that at least fifty persons from this city will make the trip. Talking about this matter recalls an incident in which a prominent Waterbury man was the central figure at the opening ,of the Cork exposition four years ago, w. J. Larkin, former member of the department of education and at present alderman from the sec ond ward, who was mistaken for the lord lieutenant of Ireland, being the first to enter the grounds. At that time MT Larkin was on visit to his former home in "Merrie England" and thought he, would like to do some sight seeing in Erin's Isle be- fore returning to the land of his adoption. When he reached Cork the exposition was about to open and he was bound to take it ins but when he applied for admission the guards informed him that nobody could enter until after the lord lieu tenant had arrived and formally opened the exposition. He was not expected until the next day, and as Mir Larkin had planned to be back in England about that time, he was in quandary to know how to see the exposition and at the same time keep his other engagements. Final ly happy thought struck him and going back to his hotel he dressed himself up in the best suit he had and it is a question if this was not much better than anything the lord lieutenant had-and then ordered the handsomest equipage in the city to be driven to the hotel. When it was ready he stepped into 1t and was driven to the entrance to the exposition grounds, where he alight- ed. and as soon as the officers of the guard saw him they whispered to one another, This is he," and in stantly the way was cleared, all hands doffed their hats and Mir Lar kin passed triumphantly through the archway of flowers and immediately commenced examining the different exhibits, and when he got through he walked out without attracting the slightest notice. except that num- Der of companies of soldiers lined up on either side of the route came to a present arms as soon as they saw him.

THE POLICE COURT.
Wedding Ring Saved Clara Johnson
 From a Sentence.

The joyful jingle of wedding bells was heard in the city court this morn- ing. Anna Brown and Clara John- son were charged with being street walkers. Anna Brown said she was 20 and married but not living with her husband, and Miss Johnson said she was 21. Both were defended by Attorney Bauby. They were arrested by Officers Donahue and Mullings, one at the corner of Grand and Union streets and the other on Jefferson street about 11:30 last night. The officers testified that for the last five weeks they have seen both women loafing around saloons might as well as day"
 Mrs Browns father. Rocco Capoda. no testified that she has not lived in his house in some time, and she herself made an admission that was sufficient to convict her. She was given thirty days in jail.
 Attorney Bauby showed that Miss Johnson was arrested within few feet of her boarding house on Jeff ferson street and that she was walk ing with, or just left man at the time.
 This man turned out to be Louis Blanchette who was shot while in a saloon in Grand street some time ago and some months later attempt- ed suicide by shooting himself be- cause he was sighted by married woman. He was for long time in the hospital with his wounds.
 Attorney Bauby put Blanchette on the stand and had him testify that he called upon the Johnson woman at her boarding place last evening at o'clock and at 8 they went to a jewellers and selected a wedding ring, because they are to be married next Wednesday. This morning Blanchette got the ring and paid for it and he produced it in court. Further evidence went to show that Miss Johnson is employed by the Plume & Atwood company. In the face of this testimony Judge Burpee suspended sentence and after court was over Blanchette went up to the dock took his alleged bride to be by the hand laughingly and guided her through the crowd. looking as radiant as the sun that was peepiug in through the old windows of the stufYy court room.
 Half an hour later the couple took out marriage license at the town clerks ofice.

Superintendent Kildun of the street department has ushered in the season with flourish and says he in- tends to keep 1t up until the snow flies next winter. He is now oper- ating in Madison street between Southview street and Baldwin street. and Lounsbury street between Bald- win street and South street. the lat ter job being about finished. The intention is to carry the work clear up to, Baldwin street after which he will grade Sylvan avenue between Stone and Washington streets. This job will require retaining walls or terraeed banks along the Bowe, Wall and Kennerney places. It has not yet been decided which will be used but it would seem that a nice con- crete wall would be the proper thing for 1t would be very difiicult to main- tain terraced entertainments and be- sides experience teaches that the con- crete or masonry wall gives bsttsr satisfaction.

TRACK STUNTS FOR GOODS
OUTDOOR SPORTS FOR WOMEN
REVIVED AT UNIVERSITY
OF WASHINGTON.

SEATTLE, Sept. 21.-University OF
Washington co-eds are going to show
the men that they can do more than
make fudge, dress prettily, gush CO.
piously and accept dance invitations
They are going to do something really
worth while this year-namely or
ganize a track team and show their
male friends how to turn out and do
things. Finishing touches were put
on the women's athletic field, in the
primevaI forest north of the "U'
buildings this summer, and there
free from tantalizing male glances
they will 60 after records with as
much zeal as do their sisters IN
Smith and Vassar.
Womens athletics has been defunct
for several years at the university
Eight years ago the co-eds used to get
out and run, jump and throw the
weights with all the enthusiasm OF
the men and sometimes more. Soon
however, track sports passed from
popularity until finally basket ball
was the only thing left. But this, too
was destined to soon give up the
ghost. Dr. B. F. Roller, the wrestler
then physical director, applied the
knife and the game was. no more. He
contended that women We're injured
physically by the roughness of the
sport, and that open games were
unseemly and the faculty agreed.
Last year, under the leadership OF
Miss Levina Rudberg, the women re-
gained a little of their former ath-
letic greatness by taking up rowing
and cross-country running. Several
excellent crews were turned out, and
some of the fair ones showed ability
and endurance in the long distance
sprints. This year the competitive
track sports will be in vogue again
when the co-eds will have chance to
see who can, run fastest, jump the
highest and throw a marble the farth-
est. They are seriously in earnest
about it, and if Connibear won't
coach them once in a while they say
they know a couple of athletes at tine
"U" who will.
