Kaiser Wilhelm H., expressed him
self as well satisfied with the ar
rangements for the Wellman-Record-
Herald airship expedition to the
North Pole. He informed friends
who met him at the pier that he
would start surely in July.
II am informed said Wellnlan,
that Commander Peary thinks that
it will not be possible to reach the
pole in balloon by reason Of wea-
tner conditions, showers, icicles and
heavy snow falls, but Peary has no
idea at all about ba1looning.
My balloon is constructed to meet
all arctic conditions and ] have full
confidence in my ability to reach the
pole in it. MY balloon has resisting
power of 500 pounds to the square.

to turn ali Of the icicles to which
Peary refers.
The balloon is Just about as pene-
trable as an ordinary sheet metal roof.

If were. would not be launching
my balloon on this expedition to the
unknown north from the very spot
where Andre took his departure. He,
was not properly equipped and / am
convinced that he fell into the Arctic
sea.

OF gasoline to supply gas for the bag,

WHY HE DID NOT LAUGH.
Humorist's Sense of Modesty Kept
 Him Silent.

A certain well-known humorist re- gently attended banquet at which he was seated beside a man who seemed to have almost mania for story-tell- ing. He began with the oysters and had at least one story for each course clear down to the Roquefort. The hu- morist listened in patience. but did not smile or make any comment Finally the story-teller noticed the fact that he was not eliciting any expressions of mirth. and. being one who was not at all afflicted with difadence, he asked: Say, old man, what's the matter with my stories, anyhow? You haven't cracked smile over any of them" If I haven't seemed to appreciate your stories you will have to blame my modesty." Your modesty? There's nothing about any of the stories I've told that ought to interfere with any body's modesty. At least I supposed they were clean. If there's a double meaning in any of them, for heavens sake tell me. I told nearly everyone of them to a lot of women the other night" There's nothing at all the matter with them. They're good, clean stories. Nevertheless. my modesty fcrbids me to taught at them. I wrote them"

GOT A WIvDFALL
Check For s1sS Happened 10 Be-
 long 10 Another Man.

A well known employe of the Wa terbury Farrel Foundry and Ma
 chine Go thought one of his ships
 had reached port the other day
 when he received check for $158 and certificate of sixty shares of stock in the Erie Railroad Co. At the same time well known business man in the north end was wonder ing why one of his ships had not come in, for he had been properly notified that 1t was on the way. Mistakes will occur while people of the same name expect their ships to
 come in. One man was expecting a windfall from the estate of de-
 ceased relative and the other was
 looking for dividend. So the other
 day when the former received long
 blue envelope with seal and insignia on 1t and the same enclosed a check
 for $168 and certificate of stock na railroad company, he clapped himself on the back and said, Well, it's about time you came. He secured the money, put part os it in bank and continued to work as be- fore. Meanwhile the other man was wondering why he had not received his dividend and stock. He had been duly notified it was en route. He inquired of the man who had sold him the stock and this started an investigation. The search took the inquirers to Hartford and back to Waterbury, and at last the re- ceiver of the money and stock was located. He said he thought he had sufficient reason to believe the let ter and its contents belonged to him. However, he was convinced to the contrary and returned the money.

cHIMPANzEE HAD MUCH FUN.
Escaped from French Circus for Brief
 Spell of Liberty.

A large chimpanzee performing at
 . fair In Montmartre, France, escaped
 recently, and created a panic in the
 district. The animal gives his per
 formance under the direction of La Goulue, the Mouth Rouge dancer who took to lion tanning and went through her marriage ceremony in a lions den. Zizi, as he is called, escaped while his keepers attention was mo- mentarily attracted elsewhere, and made straight for the Metropolitan railway station at the Boulevard Barbes. Entering the booking office he nearly frightened the woman book ing clerk out of her wits. He seized bundles of tickets, and amused him. self by fiinging them into the air and watching their descent in a shower. When he had thus made an end of several hundreds of packages he ran into the station, creating a panic among the waiting passengers. They fled across the line and down the stairs into the street, and two police men and six porters were summoned to try and capture Zizi. As soon as Zizi saw them coming he bolted down the line, and was so anxious to es- cape his pursuers that he did not no- tice an approaching train. The driv- CT pulled up in time to avoid killing the animal, and Zizi capered off on. another line, and stopped a second, train in the same way. After much, chasing and lodging Zizi was even tually caught in sack, put into q, strait waistcoat, and taken to the police station. where La Goulue ap- peared and bailed him out early the next morning.

POLITICAL POINTERS
[. \. TempIelon the Choice of
 Improvement Club.

Things are in bad mess in repub- lican politics and the would be office holders are very much worried over the situation. but those who are not looking for anything claim they don't care and are candid enough to ad- 1. init that SO far as the city ticket is concerned they don't expect anything out of 1t. The machine views it this way too, but the management is somewhat more worried over 1t than one might suppose and a lot of mis- sionary work is going on especially in the first and third wards. The re- publicans are growing tired of fac tory foremen and claim they won't stand for any more of them. They put 1t up to them in the second ward and secured c. A. Templeton of the firm of Hotchkiss & Templeton as a compromise. A similar feeling exists in the third and first wards, put it was not recognized at the conferences held last night. However, in the shops they do not feel hurt over this, on the contrary they welcome the op- position. There is nothing in these jobs for them, but when they are picked out for places of that sort they don't want to refuse. It would be an easy matter enough to get worse men than manufacturers and their foremen, but there are others and so long as this is so there is no reason why the republicans should not recognize them.
 A committee from the improvement clubs met the great men of the sec ond ward and told them they wanted MT Templeton put on the regular ticket for alderman or there would be war in the camp. The machine op- orators saw what this meant and yielded so that the aldermen will be w. J. Larkin, J. D. Buck and c. A Tempieton, the retiring member, MT Gossn dropping out at his own request The following will act as delegates to the city convention: Samuel Sloan, w. L. Hall, G. H. Ford. R. P. Lewis, Henry Doerr. A. P. Hayes, w. R. Will let's. The names. of G. H. Ford, J. w. Fawcett and w. T. Axelby were added to the republican town com mittee, making the number of that body eighteen, instead of fifteen.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1907-08-30

The nineteen United States Stand ard voting machines bought by order of the board of aldermen at an expense of $500 each. were de- 2 lfvered to-day, and the City hall looks something like the show room of the factory where they are made. The republicans didn't like the looks of them and will not use them, at their primaries, but the democrats think they are the proper thing and will have them in all the wards for the primaries. The aldermen will appoint mechanic to look after the machines at meeting to be held Monday night. When election is over something will have to be done to- wards erecting suitable place to store them. If they should be left thrown about the hall they wouldn't last long and inasmuch as they come high the city should see that they are cared for.
