 Joseph Bowling met with painful accident while wrestling with Max Stein. near the corner of Bank and North Leonard streets yes- terday afternoon. needle which was in his coat entered his chest and for a while made Bowling feel very uncomfortable. At first it was thought that Bowling was seriously injured, so he was taken to the Wa terbury hospital but to-day left the hospital almost as we'll as ever. Stein and Bowling were grappling when Bowling with cry of pain told his friends to let go as something was sticking him in his chest. But Stein thinking Bowling was only fooling continued to wrestle. When the men separated Bowling hastened into Smiths drug store where it was found that needle had pierced his chest. He was taken to the office of Dr Grant who had the young man re- moved to the hospital At the hospi- tai to-day it was said no needle was found in Dowling's chest, and that the young man was not hurt to any extent
 The Brooklyn Athletic Football team will not play tomorrow as two of the best players Mahaney and Brandt are laid up with injuries. But the team will practice and will be- gin to get in fine condition for the All Waterbury game. The Brook lyn players are finding it rather diff cult to arrange games with other teams in the state and there seems to be well formulated plan to freeze them out The Acorns and Thomaston will play the Brooklyn team under no conditions and appar- ently some one has fixed these mana gers in order to make the season of the B. A. C. team. anything but a bed of roses Danny Walker, mana ger of the Acorns. will not even ans wer any of the letters sent by Mana ger Dunphy while the Thomaston manager will not give the local boys a date But the Brooklynites have no thought of disbanding and will show the public they are out to win before the season is over. The All Waterburys will have to arrange a game with Brooklyn or lose much of theri prestige. The majority of the players of the All Waterbury team are eager to play the Brooklyn team and it is not likely that one or>two men will be able to block contest between these teams.

JUDGES MUST LOOK ON
Can Take no Part in Campaign.
 log AceordIsg 10 Law.

The honorable and distinguished office of judge of court In this state has lts political penalty and bar Tier from taking in the excitement and fun of an election campaign. X judge of court is debarred the pleasure of chipping in to the gen. eral campaign fund of his party, and, worse than that anyone who asks him to chip In Is guilty of a crime. A judge must sit by and see the other fellow having all the fun and later the glory, perhaps, with the attendant excitement and joy of con test. The legislature few years ago enacted a law which provides against judges taking any part in political campaign even to the extent of con tributing red cent to his party's campaign fund. They cannot even take the stump for their party. in short. and in practice they must sit idly by and look on while their party is getting licked or is licking the other fellow Judges of probate courts, however, are not included in that law.
 All the judges of the local courts are members of the republican party and a year or two ago that party found itself short of the wherewith- al on the eve of campaign. So an appeal was sent to the judges to chip in and help out. and all but one sig nified their willingness to do so. This one when approached threw up his eyes to heaven in holy horror and asked the committee on funds If they wished to retire him to the state prison for ten years or so, in the prime of his career. Of course they had no such idea, they said, all they were after was the oil to lubricate the wheels and the. joints of their party. But when the matter was explained to them and later to the judges who assented to contribute, there were no more requests for dough from the judges of the courts. Contributing to party campaign funds or even requesting a judge to contribute to them, is punishable by heavy fine or imprisonment, or both.

NEW AUTO TRUCK
Called Oul For Slight FIrs-gIss
 Herses Scared.

She's off!" That's what the Are. men over in Leayenworth street ex- claimed last evening about o'clock when box 2l2, private ring of the Platt Bros Co on Brown street, was sounded. Tho men had been on edge all day waiting for the first bell that would call out the new auto truck.
 It took them no time to be ready and the machine with buzz left the house and started for the blaze. But It had not gone far before there was a stop. Something went wrong in front of City hail. so. the gasolene express was delayed for almost half a minute. But John Moriarty, chauf- feur, mechanician and general handy man from Bridgeport, soon had It whizzing all right again and 1t dashed along East Main. getting to tho fire by way of North Elm street. The big car and the little fellow" owned by the chief should have some inter- esting brushes in the near future.
 But 1t was not the auto that att tracted all the attention last even- Ing. No, nor the fire either. The horses on Engine company No from Burton street were the special fea- ture and surely furnished sensa- tional exhibition As Patrick II. Maloney was driving down North Elm street the horses were fright ened by an automobile. Can you im- agine fire horses running away? It Is not often they get started, but once they hit the trail they do not stop to drink. We'll, the auto with all its new fandangles had nothing on the steeds as they galloped into East Main street beyond the control of the driver. Maloney succeeded nevertheless in turning them down East Main street and brought them to a halt just as they reached Ex- change place. Strange to say the runaways and the engine collided with nothing on their gallop. Be- fore the engine started again the hoop around the bottom of the boil CT dropped off, which made the delay longer.
 The fire itself was caused by gas jet igniting the woodwork of the boiler room. The damage was slight.
