Waterbury evening Democrat., 1908-06-18
BROOKLYN BRIEFS.

William Gadisky of Summit street, while at work in the farrel foundry Tuesday, was struck on the arm with flying piece of steel. It required the services of a physician to remove the steel from the mans arm.
 It does not look as though Will | liam Lallier would become mem Der of the Waterbury base ball team. Many thought that Lallier on his re- turn from Reading would sign with the local team, to which he would make good addition, but for some reason or other William has not been seen in a Waterbury uniform.
 "A novel contest, preliminary to the dance which will be siyen by the B. A. c. members in their rooms on Bank street tomorrow evening, has been going on. Some time ago two teams, the Whites and the Blues. were selected to sell tickets with the agreement that the captain of tho winning team would be presented with gold ring. One of the condi- tions is that the losers shall furnish banquet to the winners Naturally the boys have used their pest efforts to dispose of the tickets tnd as re- suit an unusually large number has been sold. So evenly are the teams running that in all probability either will have a chance of winning out up until the minute the contest closes. The ring will be presented at the | dance. A full jewelled gold watch will also be given to the person hold ing the lucky ticket chance going with each ticket. The arrangement committee is NJ. Madden, chairman; J. Cunningham, secretary; P. Burns, treasurer: Richard Baldwin, Martin Duane and Richard BeckwItch,
 Joseph Cabana, the carpenter, we'll known in this section, who is now living on Woleott street, lost a good weeks pay yesterday, when a i fellow workman relieved him of S55. Joe" has had a warrant made out for the arrest of the man whom he thinks took his money, but as yet i said man has not been located. Ca i bana was at work in house on Hill- | side avenue and was so careless as to let his coat with s55 in bills get out of his sight. He evidently thought that the money was safe, as few had access to the building. and conse- quently was not worried much about his wallet. Still 1t was only natural last evening when 1t came time to put on his coat to feel for his pocket book. But there was no feeling to it. There was something big in the pocket--a big amount of space. Joe's feeling-well. just imagine putting your hand into pocket expecting 1t to land on a bunch of fifry-five CO., pecks. and finding nothing there. You go through every pocket you have three or four times trying to convince yourself that you mIslaid it. Joe" did this, but at length realized that he had been touched" :" SO when he failed to find one of the men who had been working on the job he hustled to the prosecuting at- torney's office and had a warrant made out. Could you blame cabaua for looking cross to-day when anyone asked him if he saw the elephants yesterday
 --Tt is said that | A. Upson of Town Plot will soon bring suit against Charles Tyack of the same locality for damages, clai-uing that Tyaek recently defamed him while campaigning for the sfssrtion of Henry Moss as tax collector of the Town Plot school district. Upson is much wrought ur over the stories which he says Mr Tysek circulated. and If the suit becomes a reality. and there Is every reason 10 believe that it will. the trial promises to be more than interesting. Mir Upson a couple of years ago was a district committeeman. and tovaros the end of the term incurred the dtspleasHre Of MT Tyack. There vas some hitch over bills which Mr Upson gave Tax Collector German 10 eoHect- and since that time Upson and TyscK have not been the best of frisnds This rear
