SPEEDY CHAUFFEUR FINED
IN THE WATERBURY COURT
George Gilbert Drove Two Cars Through Principal
 Street.

Waterbury, Aug. 2o.r-For speeding an automobile through Exchange place, Sunday morning, George Gilbert, an en1ploye of the E, H. Towle com~ pany, was fined s2O and costs by Judge Peasley in the City court this morning.
 The testimony of several witnesses was introduced to shaw that Gilbert was driving his car with another car attached to 1t at a rate of speed so unusually fast as to attract attention. The witnesses estimated his speed at fifteen miles an hour. Gilberts claim was that he had to tow the other car back to the garage from Boulder Grove and that he was using the high-speed because the low-speed had given out. The offense occurred at 10 o'clock. Patrolman Bowling, who was on duty in the Center at that time reported 1t to headquarters, resulting in Gil- bert's arrest next day.

LOOK AT DANIELS COMET
METEOR CAN NoA BE SEEN
Orbit in Nearest Approach to the Earth About a
 Week Ago.

About 3 o'clock yesterday morning white shaft of light was discovered blazing in the eastern sky, which was visible for more than an hour. At daybreak Jupiter, the morning star ap- peareda just as the streak of light paled and the morning sun arose. This was the first peep of the comet discovered by Professor Daniels of Princeton in June The comet was seen by a police- man and several others, and as 1t was announced by various observations that it would be visible in the morn ings of middle August, at about this hour, many have been expecting 1t for some time. The head of the comet was large and bright like fixed star And behind it for a long distance diagonally across the sky, the tail of the comet was seen like a strip of the milky way
 only narrow and brilliant. When first seen the head of the comet was in the vicinity of Castor and Pollux, while the end of the tall was way up in the heavens near Regal.
 The Daniels comet is an unusual sight, and according to the best calcu, laations of its orbit was at its nearest approach to the earth about week ago. It is the brightest at this time and rises every morning at about 8 o'clock. This mornings sky was very favorable to a clear observation of the comet.

"QUIGLEY's" FINAL CLEARANCE.

Next Week the Stores Will be Given to
 the Builders-When Opened in
 the Fall the Firm Will Be the
 Same but Under a New Name.
 Ladies who take an early breakfast this morning and are at the Geo. F. Quigley Co.,, 79S-SO2 Chapel street at S;3O will have an opportunity of buy ing outer garments at prices that will probably remain reduction record breakers for many moons to come.
 The large announcement in to-day's Journal and Courier of the Geo F. Quigley Co. is virtually the final of the name. Firm remains intact but the name changes to the Crawford Plum mer Co.,, who own the Quigley chain of stores and have for several years.
 The local store for years has been under the management of F. B. Locke. Largely through his efforts 1t has doubled in capacity. Now it is about to double again. Next Monday the stores will be turned over to the build CTS and extensive alterations and rem ovations made. so that for the fall trade (under the name of the Craw- ford Hummer Co. but under the same management and with the same force throughout) the ladies of New Haven will see one of the largest and most modern establishments in the state de- voted exclusively to ladies' outer gar ments.
 This is the occasion of the sale which starts this morning, Almost all lines of garments are in broken sizes That ladies may know exactly what is offered, the ad. is made up almost ex- clusively of separate items, brief but explicit enough to explain just what each garment is. In view of this and in view of the fact that every article is to be sold between now and Satur- day night (Friday half-holiday except ed) prices have been made that often do no cover cost of materials. A careful perusal of the ad., check ing items sought and taking ad. with one, will offer a buying opportunity exceptional
