 WiIh Der Uncle.

Maude Allan Hathaway, age one year and a half, daughter of Mrs Frank Hitchcock of 54 High street, died this morning about G o'clock from burns received on Monday While in the kitchen of her parents home Monday morning the childs dress was ignited by the brother of her mother. Alfred Russell. The little fellow was having some fun with q piece of paper and ignited 1t by sticking 1t into the fire. He then scared the little tot with 1t and end ed by getting 1t so close to her dress that 1t caught fire.
 The mother, who was out of the room at the time heard the screams and rushing to the kitchen found her daughter in a mass of flames. She extinguished the fire as quickly as she could, burning her hands con sderably by so doing. Dr John Dil- lon was called but there was little hope of saving the child and 1t passed away this morning
 Mrs Hitchcock was badly burned while endeavoring to save her child and is also suffering much from shock.

REAL ESTATE DEAL. James Coughlan of Baldwin Street Sells His Pronerty.

The largest real estate transfer ever made in the fifth ward is now practically completed between James Coughlan of Baldwin street and Will let's & Miller. The property includ- Baldwin, Liberty, and River streets owned by MT Coughlan. The prop erty fronts 132 feet on Baldwin street, 293 feet on East Liberty street and 102 feet on River street. The depth from Baldwin to River street is about 10S feet. There are two handsome brick blocks fronting on Baldwin street, one containing the meat market and two tenements and the other two stores, the phar- macy and a cafe, and four tenements There is six-family frame building on East Liberty street, one two-fam- fly house on the corner of River and Liberty street, and a two-family house on River street. Besides these there are several vacant lots and a large barn. All the property is in good repair The price agreed upon is said to be in the neighborhood of $50,000.
 Mr Coughlan has been in business on Baldwin street for over fifty years, He went mp there when the district was sparcely settled and from modest beginnings pushed his way forward until he finally became one of the most prosperous business men in the community Years ago when beef was bought on the leg and butchered, Mr Coughlan kept slaughter house in Simonsvlle where considerable work in that line was transacted. This tract has also been acquired by Willetts & Miller. MT Coughlan has a wide acquaintance and is held in high esteem by all who know him. He has been and still is one of the most active business men in water bury and his friends will be pleased to know that after years of ups and downs in a business where competi- tion is always brisk, he is now able to retire, if he so desires, on a well earned competence.

GIFT TO MIR BODENWEIN,
Retiring State Secretary Handsom'i!
 Remembered by Employees.

Hartford, Dec. 23.-Yesterday af- ternoon there was pleasant func- tion in the office of the state secre- tary at the Capitol. The Hon Iheo, dore Bodenwein of New London VIII retire from the office of secretary at the end of his present term ln Jahu- ary and his subordinates in the office. desirous of giving expression to thelr feelings of regard presented to him a beautiful colonial cut glass tank ard with a top of sterling silver.

FIRE AND POLICE
Some Think Police Protection
 is Most Important.

There is some truth in the state- ment that of the two departments, hre and police, the aldermen should pay more attention to the latter body. A man whose opinion on such things is worth something because of his wide experience and excellent Judgment, said to-day that while it Is wise to have an up to date fire de- partment, still he had notion that police protection is more important. He reasoned 1t out in this way: Citizens are In position to protect themselves from serious loss on nc count of fire, but they have no such remedy in the matter of police pro- lection. He claimed that all insura- ble property is well protected and the insurance companies make 1t Il point to see that this is so, while they are entirely indifferent to the fate of property on which you cannot get any insurance. The fire depart tinguish fire in an old barn that is probably insured for all it is worth and If 1t went up in smoke the fire company, not the owner, would be the loser. but they take no notice of a fire in tract of woodland on which there is no insurance and which may be worth thousands of dollars. To be sure they answer call to brush fire, but only when it threatens in- snrable property, and then you never hear of an investigation being con ducted after a destructive brush fire. They leave you at the mercy Of everybody. How long do you sup pose this would be so if the insur- ance companies had anything at stake? They would soon force the hand of the city government so that timber land would be as we'll pro- tected as other kinds of property. What are We doing, then? Putting out big sums of money to protect the risks taken by the fire companies"
 There may be some truth in this, but how about protection of human life? This is the first thing all fire companies look after. And besides there is law relating to fire pro- tection on farm land, and our neigh bors should get together and see that it is enforced

 These charges are made in con' ..- ton with municipal legislation {; particularly with the selection of positories of the city's funds.
 According to the best informant obtainable it is possible the munici |. scandal of San Francisco will be .n- significant when compared to tue grating here.
 Attorney A. Leo Well. president of the Voters league said: This is the beginning. The end is not yet
