WANTS A DIVORCE
An Application Brought By Mrs
 Payne This Morning.

Mrs Mary O'Donnell Payne has ap- piled for a divorce from her hus- band, Mayron E. Payne. Mrs Payne alleges intolerable cruelty from Jan- uary, 1900, but specific allegation says that one night few months ago he attacked her with hammer as she was preparing bed for him. On that occasion he struck her twice on the head with hammer, an or dinary carpenters hammer, and in her anxiety to get out of his way she fell down stairs. Mrs Payne was taken to the hospital and Payne was arrested, charged with assault. It came out in the proceedings that he had asked his wife to sue for divorce and that for some time previous to the assault he had been queer in his actions.
 On the night of the assault he had been sitting at the window for some time looking at the moon. It was also intimated that another woman was in the case. Payne was at that time employed in the shipping de- partment of the Waterbury Brass Go. His wife said she would live with him no longer as she was afraid to do so. He promised to pay her T weekly sum, but he did not de so. He is now living at 211 East Forty eighth street, New York. The com. plaint was drawn up by Attorney Monagan and made returnable to the superior court in September.

CITY NEWS.

A daughter was born to-day to MT and Mrs John J. Moore of 443 River street.
 The Brooklyn business men and the Waterville business men will play at Corcoran's lots tomorrow after noon at 2:30.
 The appraisers have finished their work on the inventory of the goods in the store of Wagner & Go, East Main street. The total amount is s12,S66.30. The liabilities are about $27, 1000.
 Among those who contributed floral offerings to the funeral of John Haggerty was standing wreath from the brass department of the Waterbury Button company, and a basket of roses from Michael Lawlor, John Calvin, Patrick Brick and Mat thew McNally.
 Fred Faforge is at the Waterbury hospital where he was taken after being struck by trolley car. AL though the man was not badly injur- ed when he was thrown to the ground by the car, an old wound in his arm was re-opened and the loss of blood was so great that it was deemed ad- visable to have him removed to the hospital.
 Raymond Estey, Harry Hall and Miss Mary Gloves, who made their first appearance in the skit The Girl of the Campus" in New York a few weeks ago, have returned to town. Although the trio is booked for August, 1t is likely that the en- agreements will have to be cancelled as Miss Cloves has received an offer from David Belasco which she will in all probability accept. He wishes her to take a role in "The Rose of the Rancho" In case Messrs Hall and Estey are unable to fill Miss Cloves part, they will remain in this city until fall when they will open with a new act.
 There is not likely to be any fur ther developments in the case of Will liam Benson, until last Friday ser geant in Company A, who on that day lost his stripes because of a joke he played on a rookie" in camp. The action of. Brigadier General Frost is not likely to be questioned although almost everyone seems to think that Benson was rather, severely dealt with. As in camp the story when heard in this city was widely discuss ed as it is only once in a great while that such a thing happens in camp. The friends of Benson say that he will be advanced rapidly again so that before long he will once more be ranked as a sergeant. When 1t first became known that Benson had been deprived of his stripes many thought it was because of the part he played in the hazing of three privates on Wednesday evening, but such was not the case.

THE DOUBLE FARE
Done Away With 3n Cheshire
 Line-Nickel a Time Now.

The trolley company made news to-day. One item concerns a new way, or rather a return to the old way of collecting fares between the Waterbury town line and Mount Carmel. At luncheon in Cheshire a few weeks ago General Traffic Man ager Smith stated the day was not far distant when trolley expresses would be all the go and tickets would be issued for through trips. An order went into effect to-day that hereafter double fares shall not oe collected on the Cheshire line. This is a return to very annoying method of paying ones fare, and it will not be popular with the conducor5 either. Under this new order one will have no sooner paid his fare from Exchange place to the town line when he will be called upon again for another and so on to the end of the trip, every five minutes dipping into ones pocket for nickel.
 The double fare method was not popular at first because it was new way of collecting fare, but it was found to be far better than the every five minute dive for a nickel method. And furthermore, it is a backward instead of a forward movement, ac- cording to the statement made by Traffic Manager Smith a few weeks ago. The other item of news was the appointment of another inspec- tor or starter at Exchange place. The additional man is William or Bill" Clarke, as the trolley em- ployes call him. He is popular with the men, but is by no means the longest man in the employ of the company. He makes the fifth in- spector on this end of the trolley sys- tenn.

NEW DRILL TOWER
Firemen Will Soon Be Using
 One On Washington Avenue.

The drill tower, or more properly speaking, the training school for ire men, which is in course of erection in the rear of the Washington avenue engine house, will soon be completed and after the boys have had chance to chamber up and down 1t every day for a few weeks they will think nothing of running up ladder onto the high est building in the city. It stands about eighty feet above the lot ana commands a view of the whole town. In addition to being move in the right direction, so far as improving the efficiency of the firemen go. it may come in useful in the future as look out in time of war with Naugatuck or some nearby town. The worst fea- ture of the tower is that the lot is too small and the men will not have the room they ought, to have in order to derive the most possible benefit from it. There is not room to whip a cat In the lot, and in a town like this where land is reasonably cheap, one cannot help wondering why the city is so stingy when it is planning to put up an expensive building. That lot ought to be at least twice its present size, and if the drill tower proves to be the great thing some claim 1t to be, the time will come when the safety board will want to give the boys more room to jump around in. While the men are promenading on the top stories, and in fact all the time dur ing practice, large net will be sus- pended around the tower as a sort of safeguard against accident.
