Buy Arms For
 Tommy Waugh Fire Board Will Pay $500 to Help Man Hurt at Jail
 Fire

New Haven, May 19.-The board of fire commissioners at special meeting held last night, voted to buy a pair of artificial arms for Tommy Waugh, the fireman who lost his own as a result of the disastrous fire at the county jail last year. The arti- ficial limbs will cost $500 and will be the most up-to-date mechanism ob- tainable. The commissioners took this action at the motion of Presi- dent Seymour M. Judd, who says that he has been shown artificial arms the fingers of which may be con- trolled so that when a glove is worn it can hardly be detected that it is artificial.
 Waugh has now almost wholly re- gained his strength and is able to get around. He was in the hospital for nearly a year. He is held on the rolls of the department still as a full f1edged member of the depart ment and probably always will be-
 The meeting was called to consid- CT the charges against J. Henry Powell, the signal officer at fire headquarters, who was charged with failure to show up for duty last We'd nesday. Powell was reduced to third grade hoseman for one year Powell is the president of the Fire mems Mutual Aid association and was one of those who were injured at the old Judson packing house fire He remains on duty operating at headquarters.

CARS DIDN'T BUDGE.
System Tied Up for Ten Minutes B the Burning Out of Great
 Generator

New Haven, May 19-Not a car on the local system of the Connecticut Company moved a wheel yesterday af- ternoon for ten minutes, from $40 to $50, owing to the burning out at the Grand avenue power house Of one of the great ,000-kilowatt generators. The generator developed what is known in the profession as a ground with the result that forty segments of the commutator frizzled up. Elmer gency calls brought every available electrician to the power house and in just ten minutes the cars were moved simultaneously over the entire sys- tenn
 The accident is a rather serious one as it takes a great amount of power from the system temporarily. Orders were issued at once by the Connecti- cut officials to work night and day to repair the generator. This will take about two weeks and every effort will be directed to having it in com mission for the heavy travel of Me morial Day.

Falls In Mortar TWelve-Year-Old Has Marvellous Escape in Tumble in New
 House

New Haven, May 19.-Falling three stories, little Oswell McGuire, who had been playing with several com panfons on the second floor of new house, the framework of which had only been finished, on Winchester avenue, miraculously escaped serious injury yesterday afternoon, when he landed head first in a barrel of mor- tar. The force of the fall left him stuck and almost suffocating, with nothing but his feet visible over the top of the barrel. When he was pulled out 1t was believed that he was seriously injured and that he had possibly sustained a concussion of the brain, but this was not found to be the case when he was more thoroughly examined at St. RaphaePs hospital.
 In going down the boys forehea I was torn by a nail. Dr. Paul Stet- son, who was called, took 15 stitches to close up the wound. The boy is 1 ? years old and lives at 324 Winchester avenue.

 Perhaps the most striking result was shown in the case of babies. Epidem- ic meningitis has been uniformly fatal to infants under the age of one year. The author of a famous textbook on the diseases of children Or. HolD re- ports that of the twenty cases under one year treated in his hospital wards, not one recovered.

HAS AN ADVANTAGE.

The article appearing in the Tempe department of The Republican yester- day morning wherein the quality of the poetry l have been trying to put before my customers was criticized has created a good deal of talk.
 l therefore submit the following:
 A newspaper reporter has no ap parent pity for the mistakes and er- TOTS of his fellow man; in his position as a representative of the paper he has the advantage of being able to put bis argument before the public first hand. yet when the subscriber wishes to show his side it works a hardship upon his pocketbook and that seems to be eX actly what the newspaper man wants.
 A citizen with average intelligence should always excuse a man foreXpOsing his poor points. but in this case my ev cry day associate went back on me. The newspaper man yesterday admitted the injustice of his statement and upon the exchange of cigars the matter was considered dropped
 I have never claimed to he a poet or newspaper writer, but have been sincere with by advertisements. be- lieving that heart to heart talks were the best JOHN RYDER.
