FIRES ON SATURDAY
Firemen We're Kept busy Exer. cising Themselves and Horses.

The fremen were kept on the jump Saturday and were called out three times during the day. The first call was that on Phoenix avenue, report ed in Saturday nights issue, while the others came in the evening and apparently were of incendlary origin. The first was about 9 o'clock and was in the Willinger block at the corner of Canal street and Chatfeld avenue. The fire, which was in the cellar underneath the Mancini saloon, had been discovered by small boy. A mass of rags soaked with oil was blazing, while nearby was pile of wood which had been saturated with oil. The second fire was about 10 o'clock, being in Wards Flats, where so many small fires have been dis covered before. It was underneath tho saloon of Vincenzo Jamele, and was blazing rapidly when the firemen responded. A bundle of excelsior covered with oil had been placed against the woodwork. Considerable headway had been made before the firemen brought the fire under con- trol. Just when the firemen were about to go home, the blaze broke out in another part of the cellar. The cellar was then soaked so thoroughly as to prevent any possible chance of the fire breaking out again. Late Sat urday evening fire was discovered in pile of boxes in the rear of Grieve, Bisset & Hollands store. There was no damage.

TEMPERANCE RALLY.
Will Be Held Some Evening After
 Thanksgiving.

The storm of last night deterred many who had planned to attend the temperance rally in City hall from being there, and although many were in attendance it was deemed advisa- ble to postpone the meeting until some evening after Thanksgiving. The Rev William H. Flynn, who was to deliver the lecture, made few remarks, and President Robinson also spoke. The musical programme as announced herein Saturday was rendered in very satisfactory man. ner. The meeting was called by the management of rhe local temperance societies and notwithstanding the in- element weather many of the mem bers braved tue storm, which shows that the temperance movement is by no means in the background in Wa terbury, although some think that less notice is taken of the question than in any other town in the state.

 Compared with what other cities spend for this purpose the amount is small. It might not be amiss to say in this connection that few, if any, papers in the state devote so much space to municipal affairs as those published in Waterbury. This may not be in accord with the wishes of men who make a profession of poli- tics, but it meets with the approba- ton of the public, and that is the end in view.

SMOKE SHOP ROBBED
Made Off With Cash Amounting
 10 $i97.

One of the most bare face burglar lies committed in Waterbury in many months was enacted Saturday evening or rather early Sunday morning
 when the Smoke Shop on Bank street
 was entered and cash to the amount
 of $197 stolen. Entrance was made through the front door by means of a Sskeleton key. When it is considered that the store. which is owned by fired Oakes, is right in the heart of Bank street and easily visible from the outside it is evident that the burglars had plenty of nerve to take , the chance and must have worked cleverly to escape detection. It was
 about l o'clock Sunday morning that lPatrolman Joseph Neagle in making
 the rounds of the stores found the door of the Smoke Shop unlocked. He pulled the door and evidently thought that he had securely fastened it. But on his trip around to the store about
 4 o'clock again he found the door un-
 locked so Proprietor Oakes, who re- sides at The Cables on Prospect street
 was notified. He came down and after
 looking things over saw that he had
 been plucked for about $197.- There
 was $37 in the cash register when
 the store closed for the evening and
 $l60 in MT Oakes' desk. It was all
 pilfered. The intruder, or intruders, also turned things upside down in Greenberg's barber shop, which is To- cated in the rear of the Smoke Shop, but their efforts were not so success full as in the other half of the store. Edward Keefe, clerk in the Smoke Shop, closed up about 11:45 Satur- ! Iday evening. It is thought that the Burglary was committed between that
 hour and 1 o'clock. That's going some. It is said that the police and
 detectives have a clue.

O weep not for her, call not back again
 The soul that's forever at rest, She has passed through the furnace of trial and pain, And has won her bright crown mid the blest. Think not though her step hath fled from her home, And the work of her hands is undone, She can ever forget the hearts, sad and lone, Or the friends that her goodness had won. There while she kneels by the great white throne, With the cherubins chanting around, She will win for her friends, frcm Mary's son The joy she herself hath founl.

FIGURES NEVER LIE, Ell!
Here's a Case Where They Do--- The Democrat Misrepresented.

The Sunday Republican has been giving some figures on city adyertis- ing, and in looking them over one would think that the Democrat gets the lions share of the business. This is not so. It is doubtful if the Demo- crat gets as much city advertising as either of the two republican papers, as anybody must have noticed who keeps track of such things. Quite a few advertisements appear in the other papers that do not come to the Democrat, for example, the call for proposals for a tuberculosis ward which appeared in the American Fri day from the department of char ities and many other things of that sort that might be mentioned.
 How then, does 1t appear that the Democrats bill is higher than any of the other dailies?
 The only explanation to this is that whoever gathered the information must have put the job printing. in- cluding the journal, which was se- cured on competitive bids on two diff ferent occasions and the advertising together, and in this way the price for advertising in the Democrat was made considerably higher than it is.
 The figures issued by the Republi- oan follnrc.
