That "Good Night"

Don't forget it, Mr.. Travelling Man.
You know what comfort it is to you;
you can readily realize the pleasure It
gives the loved ones at home
No letter you may write, or telegram
you may send, can convey the thrill that
comes with hearing your voice..
You know how you feel when you hear
the voices of your wife and children, and
you know how they feel at hearing yours.
It's we'll worth while to

UP TO THE COLONEL
Citizens Will Urge Ullman to Support Governor Woodruff
 for Another Term.
FAILURE NOT EXPECTED
Business Men and Agriculturists Want
 Return of the Present Ad- 1 ministration.

Col. Isaac M. Ullman returned yes. will be besicged by the Lilley people with requests and demands that he support the Waterbury man for gov crnor. Tho business men of the city, however, are confident that Col. Ull- man will not acceed to this demand and will support the choice of the business men and farmers of the state, Governor Rollin s. Woodruff.
 Colonel Ullman was asked by re- porter if he would support Governor Woodruff for another term of office. His only response was that he would absolutely refuse to talk politics at the present time
 To many it seems, said prominent man yesterday that Colonel Ullman has the opportunity of a lifetime to save Connecticut from sad spectacle and to continue for two more years the present good business administra- ton. Colonel Ullman has in the past proved public spirited citizen and in the case at hand his friends do not believe he will be found wanting.
 During the past few weeks, and es- peclally since his return from Penn- sylvania, 1t Is understood that Gov ernor Woodruff has been again and again approached by Lilley men who have tried to get him to announce that he is not candidate for renom- nation. But 1t Is also true that he has had countless communications from business men and from men representing the agricultural interests of the state urging him to run for the nomination again.
 Some definite announcement is ex- pected during the coming few days and 1t is not believed that Colonel Ullman will desert Governor Wood ruff. If Colonel Ullman comes out for him the Lilley men will be up against a leader who can give them cards and spades and win.

LAYING WOOD BLOCKS
Work on New State Street Pavement
 Assuming Form.

The work of laying the new wood blocks which are to be the permanent pavement for State street between Grand avenue and Chapel and for Court street from Church to State was started yesterday. The first blocks were laid in the neighborhood of Grand avenue and considerable space was covered before work was stopped for the day. The blocks are made in the shape of bricks and are laid on edge like the brick pavement on Chapel and other streets here. The blocks are of pine wood and are put through a spe- cial process in which creosote Is used which fills the grains and makes the block complete solid. The blocks will be cemented together with hot tar and the entire surface will present as smooth an appearance as that of the brick pavements. The wood pave- ment is held to be even better than the brick and to be much less noisy
 The bricks are laid on top of mac adam dressing such as was used as the foundation of the bituithic pave ment. This has been laid on one side of State street for the two blocks and part of the stretch on Court street has also been done in this fashion

GARBAGE MEN
 GET MORE FINES Complaints Decrease Slightly, But July Record Is 259 Second Protests of
 Citizens.
TO QUESTION FARNHAM
Contest Over Houses That Are Listed for His CoIIcctIon-IicaIth Board on Estimates Decides on
 Salary Increases.

| Although the number of complaints made against the efficiency of the pres ent garbage contractors continues to run into very high figures, showing the general dissatisfaction with the way the work is being done the complaints reported for the month of July by 1 Health officer Wrighb at the meeting of the board of health yesterday after ] noon showed considerable falling off in number from the month of June de spite the hot weather which generally acts as q spur to the compliments. Dr. Wright reported for the month Sss first 1 complaints and 209 seconds in the vest ! tern district, while for the eastern dis 1 trict the first complaints numbered l29 and the second complaints 50. These are the totals of unwritten complaints and only about one-tenth of these were put down in writing and signed. Fines i were levied on the written complaints of which the western contractor receiv- ed si7 and the eastern sl.
 In the consideration of the complaints a conflict appeared In regard to the houses which the contractor was not to call at and which are being served by Farnham To several of the com | plants the answer was made that the house was on the Farnham list and i therefore the board of health had giv- 1 en the regular contractor orders not to 1 collect there In one of these cases 1t i was stated to the board that no one with any authority in the house had | signed the house 10 the Farnham list, | but the contractor claimed it was on | his list of exemptions and one of the members of the board stated that 1t was on the list which had been given | to the board as a house to be visited by the Farnham collector. To settle the matter and ascertain whether the | Farnham list was incorrect and held names and numbers which we're not served by Farnham's collector the l board instructed it's clerk to request 1 that Mir, Farnham attend the next ses- 1 to the members.
 After the complaints had been dispos- ed of the board in executive session considered the estimates for the next year which must be In by August 10 1 They were not finished and special meeting will be called by the present to complete them. Practically every thing has been decided on, however, except the request which will be made for better collection of the city gar bage Whether this will he in the form of q request for an incinerator or for sale to other plants outside the city ar- ter collection by the city has not yet been decided an this will be the bus- ness of the special session of the board
 Collection by the city is what is desired and some form of this will be asked for in the estimates.
 Several increases in salaries will be asked for this year. They will include the request for an increase of Dr. l Wright's salary. The salaries Of the ln- spectors of the board will also be rais- ed, the probable amount to be asked being $100 increase in each case.
