CHRISTMAS BUSINESS
Merchants Could Not See Any
 Money SiringeDcy.

Notwithstanding the pessimistic stories about hard times and the ef- feet that stringency in the money market would have upon Christmas trade, the merchants of Waterbury are highly elated over their holiday business, and all seemed to be perfect ly satisfied with the patronage re- ceived. The Democrat took occasion this morning to interview several of the merchants of the town, taking ill all kinds of stories and such optimis- tic statements were given to the scribe that he was led to believe that it was a most prosperous year. k. w.. Hampson, of the Hampson-sellew firm said that business was fine. II never saw so many bills of large denomination in circulation" he de- clared this morning, ''and the way the money circulated was indeed a sur prise to me in view of the hubbub that some were making about hard times"
 J. E. Mullings, of the firm of J. B.
 
 stating that the holiday trade com pared favorably with year ago. He admitted that the moderate weather effected the sale of regular winter clothing. but on holiday merchandise, more clerks than ever before were needed to look after the customers The Upson, Singleton company had ono of tho hiOuoct vaore in itc h; e tnrr One of the firm said, ''We never had a better week before Christmas, and on Friday and Saturday the people seemed to be fiocking into our store, and what is more, they all had mon ey."
 H. F. Harding said he was most grateful for the patronage received and declared that his stock of toys was about cleaned out. Only three iron toys were left in the store and four dressed dolls. The store clean ed up better than ever before. Elegant replied Colin F. Wilson. the South Main street furnishing man when asked how business was. Saxc X Floto report the biggest year they ever had in the floral line. we were heavily stocked this season, but our supply did not, at that, meet the de- mand. It was very, very prosperous season for us." The Curran Dry Goods company said their holiday trade was very, very satisfactory.
 Dallas's flower store was also about cleaned out by the Christmas rush. but is well stocked up again. The Reid X Hughes Dry Goods company had nothing but good words today for the people of this city and declare if there were hard times, their store did not feel them.
 The Jones, Morgan company said the business exceeded expectations. while the firm of Gricve, Bisset and Holland was deluged, as it were, with buyers.
 All the jewelry stores report big sales. After all, it pays to be an opti- mist.

THROUGH THE ICE
12 Year Old Son of MT and Mrs
 John Penikas Drowned.

Another life went out in the wat CTS of the Manhan yesterday when Wladislaws Penikas, the twelve year old son of MT and Mrs John Penikas of S5 South Leonard street, went through the ice in the rear of the site of the old ice house and was drowned within sight of a number of his terrified companions. About 2 o'clock in the afternoon the young sters were amusing themselves strik- ing at one thing and another with hockeys, when somebody proposed a race and in making the best time he possibly could young Penikas got onto a spot where the ice was thin and brittle and went through. He held on for a few seconds and screamed for help. George Mulligan ventured near enough to reach the struggling boy a hockey which he clutched, but owing to the frozen condition of his it and he went down. Mulligan made a good fight to save his companion, but all his efforts proved unavailing.
 The boys father who conducts a bakery at S96 Bank street, was noti- fled and went down there. A big crowd collected and the work of finding the body was commenced. Af- ter an hour or so it was brought to the surface by George Gibbs, motor man, who went out on a raft and caught hold of the boys clothing with a hook. The little fellows father was on the spot when Jack" as he was familiarly known, was pulled ashore with his skates fixed tightly to his shoes. The father could not utter a word, but when the tears rolled down his cheeks there was not a dry eye in the crowd. It was one of those sights that have been wit messed too often at that death trap and prompted many to ask the ques- tion, is there no law by which the youth of the city can be protected from such places both in winter and in summer.
 Acting Medical Examiner Graves viewed the remains after which they were removed to Mulville's undertak- ing rooms.
 The funeral will be held at 1:30 o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
