We Regret.

About fourteen monthe ago

came here from Shell blna and
Shelbyville and opened one of
the incest and most complete
jewelry houses in this city that
can be found in the state. Wal

cousin and partner, James.
The change is caused by the
condition of Mr.. Dimmitt's
health. He will seek a differ.

rebuild his health. Last year
he built "A nice home here ex-

otherwise. We regret the caus e
OF change and will miss him.

The Big, Bright Benson Sale.

The Benson Furniture Go is now running one of its big furniture sales; the sale has been on for six days and never in the history of the store did a sale attract so much at tention. The crowds of people that come down South Main street, down Grand street and up South Main street, all headed for the one place, seems to mystify many who have not heard about the big sale. To stand and watch the crowds which emerge from the place Saturday evening one would think that the place was an amusement house or theater Never did furniture sale in this city come at more oppor- tune time, and the Waterbury peo- pie and their neighbors from the suburban towns are certainly taking advantage of the opportunity and are buying furniture at big saving. Many of the young folks who are shortly to start in housekeeping are now fitting up their homes. Every piece of furniture in the store is strictly up to date, as a sale is held every season and all the goods are disposed of, so that none of the goods is carried from season to sea son. In many cases there are very big reductions, some of the goods even being sold below the cost price Any goods not satisfactory may be exchanged or money will be refund od

ENGINEERING CORPS
Should Have Appropriation of Its
 Own in Yearly Estimates.

For years the city fathers have been talking of making special item for the bureau of engineering when the annual estimates are being pre- pared, but for some reason which never was explained, the aldermen in yariably blocked every move made in that direction. The bureau of engin- eering is very expensive department and necessarily so, too, and yet the public never has been able to get a line on what it costs. The work is charged to this department and that department, and often results in hav- ing big hole eaten into an item be- fore anybody notices it. This would be done away with if the bureau of engineering had it's own appropria- tion, the same as the street depart ment, the water department, and the other different departments, some of which don't cost anything like what 1t takes to run the bureau of engin- eering. Why make an exception here Let an appropriation be made sutfi- cient to carry on the work of the de- partment and then let all items of expenses coming from the engineer, be charged to, and taken from that account.

Grieve, Bisset & Holland Sale.

Tomorrow morning the annual Thanksgiving sale of Grieve, Bisset & Holland vii open and will continue until Thanksgiving day. In every de- partment of the store prices have been cut and the public will have an opportunity beginning tomorrow of buying anything which may be had in a first class dry goods store at a greatly reduced cost. The cut prices on table linens, etc are especially noticeable and will undoubtedly at tract much attention. In the drapery and rug department, dress goods and silks, art goods and notions, ladies and gentlemen's furnishings, in fact in every department in the store this cut has had its effect. A better idea may be had of the reduced prices by reading the page advertisement in this issue; the ad is sure to be of in- terest to you.

TRANSIT OF MERCURY.
How to See the Interesting Event on
 Thursday Morning.

Concerning the coming transit of Mercury the World almanac says there will be "A transit of Mercury over the suns disk, November 14, partly visible in the eastern and mid dle states, the sun rising with the planet on its disk"
 Professor Brasher, the astronomer of Allegheny, Pa, says
 "The sun rises little after / o'clock, and by that time the planet will be we'll advanced on the eastern limb of the sun. At 9:10 Mercury will be just leaving the solar disk. Un- fortunately it will be almost impos- sible to see the planet on the suns disk with the naked eye, even though dark or smoked glasses be used; but it may be readily projected on white paper or card by a field glass or fair ly good opera glasses to get a fairly large image-say an inch or more in diameter. The edges of the sun should be focused sharp, and then the planet should be seen as small bloodspot on the solar disk. It can also be ob- served with a small telescope. using a dark cap, or solar eyepiece to protect the eye from the glare and heat of the suns image.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1907-11-12
MAKING ESTIMATES
Apparent Drop in Items Due to
 Changing of Figures.

Some of the estimates submitted to the board of finance last night are very misleading. In the past it was customary to ask lump sum for making new streets and repairing old ones, but now while these items are retained they look so small that one would think the expense of repairs and maintenance and new work less than those of any previous year. But upon close investigation it develops that this is not so and that the ap- parent drop in the size of these itemf is due to a jugglery of figures. The different work is classified and pu under special headings so that while the sum total is much larger than ever before 1t looks great deal less at first glance. It is but fair to as- sume that the financiers noticed this and probably appreciate it, too, be cause it gives them better insight into the particular things for which the money is needed.
