This answer. Mrs. Osborn's attorneys,
Tpm,insor. Tompkins II Tomlnson. OF
No. Is Broad street, say VIII not stand
In court; = "A woman of Mrs. Howard
Goulds position cold not be expect ed
even to exist without the quantity and
quality of clothing that was furnished
her by the Mrs. Osborn Company.
Less Than She Might Have Had.
The lawyers assert that she had less
than she might have obtained in view
of the social requirements demanded
of her. That is the question that will
come up for legal adjudication.
The bill OF particulars hled by the
Mrs. Osborn Company asserts that be-
tween the ID day OF October, 1905, and
the 18th day Of July, 1897. Mrs. Gould
had from this company OF dressmak-
ers alone articles Of clothing nggregat-
Ing 5000. The modistes declare that
Mrs. Gould received credit on account
Of their Interpretation of the law that
she was acting as her husbands agent.
In the answer. Mr. Golld's lawyers
assert that he was not responsible for
Kathrne Gould's accounts after the
separation OF the pair, except for her
necessities" On this line will the
tiglt be made at an early date.
Among the many items in the Mrs
Osborn Company bill the largest is for
a white batiste embroidered gown with
filet lace. This is put down at s65l. The
smallest item is for refreshing hat and
curling feather" This was only A
Among the other specifications are two
chiffon motoring wells at $50 each: one
white straw hat at ss5; a white linen
gown at slI5; blue chiffon tea gown
and coat, si75; a mustard tweed coat
and skirt, sl75, and two embroidered
belts at 500 each. The full itemized list
is appended.
"Necessaries," Says Mrs. Gould.
Mrs. Gould. in signing her name to
the bill, declares that all the articles
of clothing purchased by her of Mrs. Os-
born We're "necessar!es."
No mention IS made in the papers IN
the case Of any other bills for clothing
n the time specified, although Mr..
Gould has been defendant in other sim
liar cases recently. In each instance
the defense has been that the suits or
coats did not tit properly. and no men,
ton has before been made as to the
husbands liability for his wife's me
cessities."
This is what must now be threshed
out before Supreme Court judge and
jury, and all wives will doubtless keer
strict watch for the verdict. Perhaps
It might be wise idea for the presid-
ing judge to keep strict surveillance on
his jurors, or some, much interested
husband-or perhaps hundreds of them
may try to get next to one of them
and thus save him from the wrath to
come. And 1t behooves both sides to
exercise the utmost caution In accept
ing talesmen at that.

A minor accident in the Mott Haven

The fire that singed the toes OF the

burning out much construction work

shortly befo:, daylight the end OF the

all night and helped the land forces.
The loss will be much larger than
was at first estimated, and. according
| to an official of the Joy Line. will be
easily 500, 900 and possibly more. The
nremen say that owing to the smoke,
with its suffocating creosote fumes the
blaze is one of the toughest they have
ever had tonight.
Chief Croker visited the pier and
! said 1t would be impossible to put out
the fire. and that in a short time the
JOY line pier would fall in. He con-
tinued:
"This is one OF the worst fires we
have had to fight in New York for

sixty Days in Jail and $25 Fine for
 - Savage.


 - Savage.
 John Savage and Fred Summa had trouble in the shops of the Scovill Manufacturing Go week ago and since then Savage has been laying in wait for Summa. Last evening as Summa was homeward bound after work about 10 o'clock he was struck from behind by piece of one-inch iron pipe about two feet long, with a heavy elbow at the end. Thomas Crean, janitor of the Walsh school, was talking near by to a friend and saw the attack. He saw the accused strike the other three times with the pipe on the head. Summa's head was tied up in bandages. Savage could not speak intelligibly enough to be understood. He was given sixty. days in jail and fined s25 and costs by Judge Peasley. ..
 A case against Morris and Celia kocloski for breach of the peace was put over to next Thursday, and sim liar disposition was made of like case against Esther Marida. The person whom she is said to have as saulted was unable to be in court.
 The court room was then cleared of those who were merely spectators and the cases against Eva and Rollis Karnoski, charged with keeping Il place of disrepute at 169 Charles street, and against Annie Karnoski with being frequenter, were pu, on. The evidence for the state was furnished by Sergeant Cahey and Officers J. R. Mccarthy and Gabriel and a few of the neighbors. The women were each fined s25 and costs and they appealed, while the man was discharged. 7.5s

WALKS IN CENTER
Attorney O'NeiIl's Idea of Besu.
 tiiyIDg West Main Street.

Attorney John O'Neill would have an Unter der Linden in Waterbury such as there is in Berlin, and if the city is not so beautified very soon he Will get himself appointed on the board of works and thus start the idea going. Some years ago MT and Mrs O'Neill were in the old world, and they, of course. were in Germany. i The beauty of the streets in Berlin l took his eye, but the magnificence of Unter der Linden which Is said to be the widest and finest in the world With the possible exception of the Neva Prospeckt in St Petersburg Rus sia, in the matter of width, beatAAy thing he had seen in his travels. Pic-. lures of this famous and beautiful thoroughfare are quite common. The walks instead of being along the side of the thoroughfare, is in the middle, and it's width is in proportion to that of the. street, with fine large trees such as are on the green, fur nfshfng the requisite shade.
 MT O'Neill would give Waterbury
 
 an unter der Linden in this way: What is now the sidewalk on the south and west side of the green, he would add to the street, thus widen ening West Main street about seven feet on the south side and a few feet more on the west side Then he would make walk about fifteen feet wide through the center of the green from end to end. not a concrete or flag walk. but soft walk made of fine yellow sand, such as is used in Inter der Linden. No one, in Mir O'Neill's view, makes much use of the sidewalks on the west and south side of the green and by adding 1t to the width of the streetit would only serve to enhance the beauty of the city. With this idea carried out as thus suggested by MT O'Neill, he is confident Waterbury would have it's own Inter der Linden and be the envy of every city in the state.

CHIEF SNAGG HELD UP.
Hartford Officers Got Him Without
 Number on Auto.

The Hartford Courant says: Fire Chief Snagg and Fire Commissioner Lewis of Waterbury came to the city about the time the noon fire was out in a new Corbin automobile built for the Waterbury chief and stopped at headquarters to see Chief Krug, but he was not then at his home. The bright new auto with w. F. D. and shiney extinguishers attracted a good deal of attention as it stood on Pearl sticsi. On finding that the chief would not. be down town until later the party went off to lunch, but only got to the corner of Main street without trouble, for there the lack of numbers on the new car attracted the attention of Sergeant Quinn and the officer on duty and the car was halt ed. The visitors explained that fire apparatus didn't have to have num- bers and were allowed to go ahead.

TOWN ROADS.
Vicinity of Cheshire and Scott High-
 ways in Bad Condition.

The town roads, as many of them < as have been attended to so far this season, are in very good condition, and an effort will be made to con- tinue the good work until all of theS are at least passable, though perhaH 1t may not be possible to do this duI ing the present year. Once in sA often the statement is made that the town roads were looked after better by the selectmen than at any time since consolidation, and while few believe this yet there Is little grain of truth in it, at least in some in stances. Take the Scott road. for example, which runs of the Cheshire road and extends out to the town boundary, distance of about mile and half. Once you pass Maurice Reids place 1t is almost impossible to make any headway with horse, and for most of the distance nobody would care to drive a carriage over it. Foreman Houghton of the street department and Democrat reporter explored the whole district yesterday afternoon and when they got through they agreed that the city should close the street or make some re. pairs on it. It is true that there are not many houses in that street, but the prop erty is in the grand list and those who live there are entitled to some consideration. doctor going out that way has to hitch his horse in the woods half mile or so short of his destination and stumble over the pathway-it isn't road now the rest of the distance. In the early days of the town 1t was a main thor oughfare, and Nelson Todd, who was born there 7S years ago and still re- sides at the old homestead. can tell interesting anecdotes of the time when with the other boys and girls in the neighborhood he used to sit out evenings to see the mail coach horses rattle down the hill, and talk with woodchoppers and others, of whom there were quite few pass ing to and fro in those days. At that time that district was one of the prin- clpal parts of the town, but for the past fifty years or more the rude forefathers of the hamlet have been thinning out and at the present time the houses number only about six or seven, with population of some thing in the neighborhood of dozen souls, including two of the old stock end one child, the daughter of Mir and Mrs William Roxburgh. who oc- cupy a part of the Todd residence, which was built 150 years ago and Is st.. very neat house. It was butt by the owners grandfather and has been owned by the family since the settlement of the town.
 The people are very much pleased with their homes and say that the only source of complaint they have Is on account of the condition of the. road. which almost isolates them from the rest of Waterbury ans forces them to make a trip out Prof. pect way to reach Waterbury. Ns i The city has a man out there n0-4. cutting brush along the roadsides.s { and next Monday a forcce of men will commence fixing the street. If the work can be carried to the towa
 boundary it will be a Godsend to those who live out that way. but 1t Is doubtful if sufficient funds can be spared to do such a big job.

THE EAGLES DO SCREAM.
Just What Will Happen When They
 Get Busy With Many Screams.

Back in the old days and not so many years ago either the people were asked to attend panoramas of Ireland, fairs at which pop corn and lemonade were attractive fea- lures, ice cream was prohibitive measure. peanuts done or undone held frll sway and at the close you brought home a shaving brush or cup or a back comb or a box of tooth picks or perhaps a motto with the old but never worn out adage There Is No Place Like Home" These were good times too and those fairs and panoramas paved the way. for something better to follow in the times to come. Every body was happy then and the
 Eagles of Waterbury propose to make everybody happy within the next few weeks. How do they i'm tend to do it? Why it is easy enough to guess. From the 17th to the 26th of October there will he old memories revived down at the nest on South Main street, where the Eagles love to roost. There will be none of the old time awards how ever. We can't tell you just how we'll you will be treated. for you will have to consult the Two Bills" or the souvenir" bunch or the financial holders of the "fif- teen thousand golden eagles" Can fifteen thousand fly? Well just get next to an Eagle. ask him the time of day. and then beg him to give you one of his cards of admission to the charmed circle. If he Is a good Eagle he will do the rest.
