SAWED HOUSE IN TWO
Family Col Up 10 flpd Part q
 Reel nlsslss.

A dispute between Thomas F. Mo- Mahon and the railroad company hae resulted In a peculiar situation for ' family named Knudol and a siege of illness for some Of the Knudol chils dren, It will be remembered that some time ago MT McMahon was at odds with the city and the railroad company regarding certain develop ments that were taking place near the McMahon estate adjoining Browns farm in the west side. The upshot was that tho railroad company had considerable land in that neigh borhood condemned on behalf of pub lie demands, to wit the railroad company needed 1t in it's new facili- ties in Waterbury. There was 2 house on the McMahon property which adjolned the railroad com panys newly purchased land A few days ago men in the employ of the company assembled near this house. took measurements and did lot of things which indicated that the house, or part of it, was an obstruc- tion in the paths of progress and 1t should give way. So early one morn ing the Knudol folks were disturbed by most singular noises and when they got out they saw to their aston ishment that the roof was sawed in two, one room was cut away and part of the roof. about eight feet, to be exact. was missing. Naturally the ! place was very cold with SO much ventilation all about and the child ren not being overburdened with heavy wardrobe, suffered to some extent. Mir McMahon was notified of what was taking place. He got on l the ground with all possible speed and there were some speeches. But some of the men were still saving wood. At length Building Inspector Chatfeld was notified and when he got on the scene he stopped the men on the grounds that they had violated the building ordinances by not hav- ing obtained a permit to do the work they were doing The boss of the men thought it very queer that man could not do what he wanted with
 his own X certain portion Of the l house was on the railroad company's 1 land, and he claimed the company
 proposed to remove it. building ord'- ! nances or not building ordinances.
 Finally, after more speeches the men
 were allowed to move that part of i the building which they claimed was on the company's land, whereupon MT McMahon consulted Attorney
 Lynch to bring suit against the rail-
 road company for trespass. for dama-
 ges for walking of with part of
 his property. that is, slice of the
 house, and the Knudol people have
 also conferred with Mir Lynch with
 the idea to bring suit for damages
 for the illness caused by the children
 taking cold through the operations 1 of the house slicers. The gaping
 cut in the roof of the house has
 been temporarily closed and the place where one room was is wear

 The B. A., c. football team was out for practice last evening, about sixteen men being in the squad. The Brooklyn football enthusiasts are now of the opinion that the B. A. c. eleven is very strong and in all prob ability will wager much money on them if they meet the All Waterbury aggregation.
 The masquerade given by the Silver Heels in the hall at 103 Green street last evening attracted large crowd. There were some very orig inal costumes and the judges found it difficult to select the prize win ners.
