THE CITY COURT.
$50 and Costs Demanded for Keep
 ing Open on Sunday,

On account of Angelo Cocchiola's S birthday falling on Sunday, October 25, city court to-day was an hour and half in session. Angelo, of course, had to celebrate and he bought a few cases of beer and call ed his friends and as many members of the Italian band to where the band practices nowadays and then the eel ebration began. It was about 4 in the afternoon when everything was in full blast that Officer Erickson came along, scared the wits out of the merrymakers and made them all run away. Erickson nabbed one fel- low, Guiseppi Ficeto. The room where the unexpected raid took place is back of Pasquale Ciminera's sa- loon, 642 Bank street, near the Bank street bridge. The situation dawned upon the officer as very suspicious and he tried to get into the saloon. He asked Ciminera and his son Frank to let him but they said they did not have the keys of the place with them.
 What drew the officials attention to the place was a man who was drinking half dozen beer in the yard back of the saloon. A few steps more took him to the alleged band room where he saw about fifty men. Ficeto said it would be too bad to take him in. he having just entered the place and had no time to get a drink, whereupon the officer looking around the place and seeing bottles of beer galore told the man to hel himself. and Ficeto buckled in. The officer then took Ficeto and three bot ties of beer into custody.
 Angelo Cocchiola said he was the manager of the Italian band and that the Sunday in question was his birth day and he was just celebrating with his friends when the officer entered. Acting Liquor Prosecuting Agent McGrath asked the man if there were any musical instruments in the room and the man said there was not, in fact these were not what the men were playing on," holding up one of the bottles of beer. Cocchiola said they were not.
 Cocchiola then said his birthday comes annually but Mr McGrath could not get him to admit that it invariably fell on Sundays A dozen witnesses followed and every one of them testified that there were just two cases of beer in the room and they were bought the night before from Ciminera. Ciminera was fined $50 and costs for keeping open and F'iceto for being on the premises $7 and costs.
 George Mulville. charged with non- support, agreed to pay his wife s4 a week for two months and s3 a week for the following four months.
 Mary Quinn for breach of th' peace and intoxication was fined s10 and costs,

A SPRINGFIELD VISITOR.
He Will Conduct a Big Land Sale at
 Fairmount.

Among the successful men who have undertaken the disposition of real estate holdings, George w. Fair field of Springfield Mass, is well known and in several states has been the means of handling large tracts of land and opening them up to develop ment. ...
 According to the advertisement in another column, Mir Fairfield Is to be in Waterbury the last three days of this week where he will hold one of his characteristic auction sales on the property of the Realty Develop ment Co at Fairmount, Waterville, and with special inducements to vis- itors, by the distribution of, presents and by special gifts to the most pop ular trolley conductor, the largest family present, to the most popular grocery deliveryman in Waterville and to the most popular employe in each of Waterville's six big fac tories.
 Such rivalries among the men, as may be caused by the desire to be the beneficiary in these contests must certainly enliven the sale and fur ther special gift of the cement blocks for a foundation to the purchaser on each days sale, who gets his cellar built first, will be attractive to those who want to get home quick.
 It is doubtful if there is a single part of our city that will grow with greater rapidity than this Fairmount tract, being located as it is right near the new Blake & Johnson fac tory, which will employ from four to five hundred, who will appreciate having homes near their work.
 The company has developed this tract to a large extent, has good streets laid out, water, sewers, cleo tric lights and a fine lot of new three and single family houses and is a highly attractive and desirable place to live. Not far from church. es, school and stores and the recent vote of the board of aldermen guar antees them unexcelled school facili- ties. With these advantages, it is only a question of very short time when the lot buyers of to-day will see large increases in their values.
 Waterbury is growing rapidly and the direction of growth is greater in the northwest portion than any where else and now that business conditions are more settled it is to be expected that all parts of this grow ing city will take advantage of the improved conditions.
