ShaW's Life Principle.

Leslie M. Shaw OF Iowa, formerly
secretary Of the treasury, has a story
on tap to at almost every situation
that presents itself. He was gov.
ernor Of Iowa when President Roose-
welt invited him to become a member
Of his cabinet. He went to Washing.
ton In response to summons from
the White House. While Mr. Shaw's
appointment had been rumored, it had
not been announced Officially. and
persistent rumor was in circulation to
the effect that he would not accept the
cabinet offer. Several correspondents
waited on Mr.. Shaw at his hotel to
learn his intentions regarding the mat
ter.

with another boy. We had long
tramp to the fishing place. and as the
weather was warm we got very thirsty,
and coming to farmhouse my COM

WORK IS BOOMING
Factories 10 Start Up Monday,
 Some on Full Time.

All of the manufacturing concerns will resume work on Monday morn ing. The Waterbury Manufacturing Co will lead off with full time for all hands in all departments, and the Matthews & Willard plant will run five days for few weeks and full time thereafter. The Plume & Atwood shops will run full time, 1t is expected, and the Benedict & Burnham mills will go On fuller time than they have been running for some months. Both the Mill street and the North Elm street depart ments of the Waterbury Clock Co will run on the same time as before the New Years shut down, but it is believed that the clock department will run five days in a short time ii- stead of four and half, which has been the schedule for the past few months. In general way there will be big increase in the working time in all the shops in town.

He Met Shorty.

Nicknames are sometimes deceptive things. and they are oftentimes ex- tremely funny. I was in small town not many miles south of Boston and, asking for certain piece of informa- tion, was informed by several that Shorty" could give 1t to me, and he seemed to be the only man who could. Not knowing just who Shorty" was. l made further inquiries and was told that he could be found in the store just across the square.
 "Just ask for Shorty" was told. Any one will show him to you"
 I went over to the store as directed and looked vainly about for some one who might answer the name. Only one man was present, and he was all most seven footer. After looking about moment started to leave.
 "Lookin' for some one, stranger?" he observed.
 "Yes, I'm looking for Shorty" I told him.
 A broad grin overspread his face.
 Guess you've got him." he mur- mured. "I'm your man." - Boston Traveller.

SUITS DECIDED
Thomas R. Manners Wins Suit Against Railroad Company.

Two cases of local interest were decided yesterday by Judge Gager in the superior court at New Haven. In the case of Thomas R. Manners against the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad Go for dam- ages of $10,O00, judgment was given the plaintiff to recover $650. It was claimed that the defendants workmen at Seymour damaged the plaintiffs property by excavating with steam shoyels.
 In the case of the Connecticut Adamant Plaster Co against the Bryan Bros, judgment to recover $1 was given. The circumstances of this case enveloped a contract to construct certain buildings on Liber- ty street. Material made by the plaintiff was to be used and upon the completion of the work the de fendants were to be paid $1,000.
 The defendants went into bank ruptcy and did not finish the work, and on that ground the court held they were not liable.

 It was wintry enough for anybody this afternoon. A fine. soft snow came down that melted almost as fast as 1t fell making walking dis agreeable and dangerous. There was just enough wind to drive the white flakes here and there with sufficient force to bother peoples eyes with the result that collisions were quite common. and in some instances folks who don't know how to take a joke got mad and said euss words. The weather prophets say it will turn to rain before morning. but they don't know any more about it than the politicians do regarding the mayors appointments to the several boards. But it is likely that enough of the snow now falling will remain for the balance of the winter.
 One of the most eniavable times ever held at Mulcahy Memorial hall took place last evening when the Forum club gave a mock trial in form of q breach of promise suit.

POLITICAL RUMORS
Aldermen Said 10 Bave Officials
 Selected For Coming Year.

It is common rumor about town to- day that the majority representation ill the new board of aldermen have agreed upon officers and finished up all other matters necessary for them to consider prior to the opening of the new city government. It was stated to-day by different parties who claim ed to have it direct, that the demo- crats have chosen Martin Sculy, of the fifth district as candidate for president of the board and John +. Gallagher of the first for vice presi- dent. The other appointments ill the gift of the board, including that of sealer of weights and measures are all in the air so far as the public Is aware, but of course some claim to know all about them. In like manner the makeup of the mayors boards are being talked of, and while some say they have them written on slips of paper tucked away in their inside pockets, it is extremely doubtful if there is any truth in this. But the sus- pense will soon be over. The new board of aldermen will meet Monday night and after that date Il great many things which are now shrouded in mystery will have been cleared up. As is customary at this time, there is considerable activity in political circles and the democrats have no monopoly of the anxiety. Republi- cans are on the anxious seat too. and appear just as much concerned as others, so that between the whCle of them. the mayor and everybody else who has anything to do with sucn things, is very much in evidence just now. Things will be different after couple of days. Many who want to talk with them will not have any use for them, so that the nice men of to- day will soon be transformed into in- sates in the minds of men for whom places cannot be found There is no remedy for this and so long as there is not, it would be folly to look for one.
