Down in his cellar deep and dark
Where his bleary eyebalIs blink,
he counts each piece, and he loves to
bark
To the rattle and clink and clink;
He knows each bit in the cleaning pile
let there in his dusty den
He creeps each day, with an evil smile
To reckon il Ger again.
And the world may Wag or the world

Men perish from cold and want
But mercy's a word by him forgot,
And his soul ike his frame Is gauntl
And what cares he for the women that

 With a show of temper, Alderman DeForest declared he did not propose to be hurried in the action of the committee on ordinances, of which he is chairman, when several aldermen fired questions at him asking what his committee was doing with mat ters referred to 1t.
 Alderman Stewart asked what had become. of the building code. Alder man Cederholm wanted to know where his ordinance had gone providing for popular elections when vacancies oc- cur in the board of aldermen. Alder man Stewart asked about his Ordin- ance prohibiting the acceptance Of streets unless properly graded AL derman Stewart then asked for con sideration by the council as whole of his resolution calling upon alder men to refrain from doing work for the city.
 DeForest asid these matters were that he proposed to take his time about them, give them such consid- eration as he thought they merited and observed that in his opinion it was with poor grace any member of the council criticised the action of his committee. we propose to take all the time we want said he, ''and we propose to extend the same courtesy to every other committee.

 FIRE DEPARTMENT
 IS IN COMM. M.SSION
After Exhibition Test Yesterday New Machine Accepted
 To be Housed at No. 1

Working in a manner satisfactory to the board of fire commissioners. Bridgeport's No. 1 steam fire engine which has been mounted on an auto mobile truck by the Mott Fire Engine company of Minneapolis, was accepted from the company yesterday and will be put in the No. 1 house on John St., where it is to be used in combina- tion with the big auto-chemical-hose wagon.
 The big machine was guided about the city yesterday afternoon, took most of the big hills including Court land street hill into which it turned from Fairfield avenue without a fly ing start; and made 32 miles an hour on a test on Noble avenue near Beardsley park.
 The tests were watched by Chief Mooney, Mayor Wilson and, the Fire Commissioners. Pat Ericsson, an ex- pert driver for the Mott Engine Co.,. was at the wheel. After the auto mobile part had been thoroughly test ed the steam fire engine was given a run at the water side.

NEW PUBLIC STREET IS FAVORED NEAR
 B. H. s. PROPERTY
Wheeler Estate Alone Appears In OppOsition-Other Public
 Improvements

Attorney James A. Marr, repre- senting the Wheeler estate appeared a public street from Congress to Arch streets along the west side of the High school property, at pubic hearing on the project before the Common Council last night. He said that his clients were not in the habit of seeking damages from the city, but compelled to ask heavy damages. He urged that no action be taken until the matter of selecting the new high school property is settled.
 Former U. s. Treasurer D. N. Nor gan, R. D. Hurley, Attorney Sanford Stoddard, and others favored the pro- streets in the vicinity made the street a necessity. MT Hurley said there was a strong sentiment for the new street, and added that he voiced the torney w. V. Dewitt, Prosecutor De- Laney and other parties in interest.
 Several other public hearings occu- pied the Common Council. J. Harry Crossley opposed the establishment of an eight foot building line in Free man street. He said the property was in manufacturing district, and the establishment of the line would de- preciate it's value
 the extension of Eng!ewood avenue through to Madison road, declared conditions were such now that prop erty owners there can't get home without a boat in stormy weather. Attorney John c. Chamberlain spoke in favor of the matter
 Several petitions having to do with the grading. and establishment of curb, gutter, etcA in French street, from North avenue to North Main street, were laid over until the next council meeting, that all petitioners may have an opportunity to be heard at once. Former Collector John M. DonneIly. whose fence was left be- low street grade by the grading of WeStield avenue, and other parties in interest asked for the regarding of the street.
 The hearing of the petition of the Salts Textile Co. for a new layout for the dead end of Nichols street, that a change of less than a foot in the street line may be made to conform to new building work begun before the -encroachme ent was discovered, was followed by a favorable report from the committee on streets and side walks, and the order of the layout as desired.

Warm Greeting Given to
 Nazimova in Marionettes
First Presentation of Legitimate Drama Under Manager Irvine
 Attracts Large Audience

A fashionable audience completely filled the Park Theatre, last night, played the leading role in The Mar ionetteS." The performance gave un- usual satisfaction, in every detail. Staging, lighting and coStuming were as nearly perfect as could be. The famous actress was supported by a competent company, and herself more than 11sloH met the the expectaations of her he. French, and not in itself unusual. A handsome man of broken fortune rnarries a young woman to repair his finances The young woman has of ten seen the young man and loves him. But her love is not returned. Inexperienced. demure, and obedient, the young wife not only fails to gain the approval of her husband but iu- spires dislike in him if not actual hatred. He treats her with disdain and finally tells her that he does not
 The knowledge works change in the young wife She takes on a bril- ture, and soon wins the admiration of all the men who have occasion to meet her, inspiring in one a devoted affection. The result is not unusual. The husband seeing the wife he had ignored the object of the admiration Of others of his sex himself acquires an affection as violent as his former aversion had been intense.
 The contrast between the sedate and unsophiSticated young woman just out of school, and the brilliant and experienced woman of the world worked out by Nazimova with a com prehension of the psychology behind the change and a delightful detail which showed this wonderful actress at her best. As in all such plays the ending is happy, and the heroine and her straying husband live happily ever after.
 This was the first performance of legitimate drama under the admins tration or Manager Irvine. The large house proved that Bridgeport people will patronize a performance of known merit, and the hope was al- m ost universally expressed that 1t will be the policy of the theatre to pro vide sterling attractions at more ire 4Gant intervals.

BATHING BEACH
 AT TERMINUS OF
 NEWFIELD AVENUE
Cederholm Project Brings Out OppOsitiOn-2,5OO Favor
 In Pet. ton

With nearly 2,5OO signatures a mas sive petition signed by residents prin- cipally of the East Bridgeport voting districts was presented to the Com mon Council, last night, asking for favorable, action on the resolution in troduced by Alderman Cederholnn of the Twelfth district calling for the establishment. of public bathing raci- lities at the foot of Newf1eld avenue
 Determined opposition was voiced by half dozen residents of the i'm mediate vicinity of the proposed bath houses, but not all the residents were in accord, some favoring the loca- tion of bath houses in another part of the locality, others opposed to bath houses anywhere near there. The property owners offered a diversity of reasons why the bath houses should not be located close by.
 Half a dozen of Cederholm's con stituents spoke in favor of locating the bathhouses. The proposed site is the dead end of Newfield avenue This which Tracy Warren. an adjoining property owner, and the city, became involved in litigation. The suit ended favorably to the city.
 Rev. H. M. sherman, who resides in Seaview avenue near the proposed bath bouses opposed the resolution. the vicinity could be found, better adapted to bathing purposes. Russell H. Whiting, another resident of Sea view avenue, said he feared the foot
 
 for the purpose. Wilhelm Winter pointed out the dangers of bathing in vinicity. Tracy Warren feared the es- tablishment of a bathing house would choke up the street and thus block access to boatmen who wished to land there. Several other residents spoke, and from them came a suggestion that the bathing houses be located on the Ra del property.
 William A. Barnes. electrician of the fire department, at once took issue with the proponents of this scheme. He declared the place was full of filth from a sewer, literally a cesspool. Alderman King declared such a con- dition didn't exist at the foot of New field avenue where a six knot tide cleans the water front so effectually that the residents never fear to go clamming there.
 Alderman Cederholm took issue with the opponents. said he had not offer ed his resolution without making study of conditions. He said the place was clean. offered a good bathing beach, and was of convenient access, whereas the only other public baths at the west end of Seaside park are so remote as to be of little use to the residents of the east side.
 Alderman Deorest discussed the le- gal aspect of the project. and said it occurred to him. that the city must first discontinue the street before of- fering such an obstruction as the hath houses.

YOUNG TOUGHS IN CONTROL ON
 R. R. VIADUCT
Whole Force of R. R. Detec- tives Called to. Break Them Up-Gang Licked Two Linemen.

Intent on breaking up a gang of tough youngsters who have fairly
 terrorized the railroad men in the
 East End by their depredations, and have even held up some of the fast
 expresses on the viaduct, Railroad Detective George E. Burnes and a force of his assistants have been busy in Bridgeport several days cleaning up'' various ring leaders in the gang and causing them to be hailed into court.
 The last straw, that resulted in the railroad detectives being placed on the job occurred Saturday when John Koshol, of 3S Walter street, a youth of 20, administered a trouncing to Thomas Casey and Joseph Cleveland, sisted by whole gang of youngsters who threw stones with telling effect while their ringleader took care of the fstic end of the dispute. Koshol was arrested yesterday by Patrolman McGovern and was ar raigned in the city court this morning road property, to which he pleaded guilty, and of assaulting Thomas Casey, to which he pleaded not guilty. In behalf of himself Koshol de- clared that the railroad man started hostiltties by throwing stone at him
 missed me and I nailed him." said KoshOl.
 Prosecutor Delaney told Koshol to remem Der that he was in court and ought to speak English instead of the language of a, tough.
 "I mean he made a punch at me, missed, and I soaked him. said KOshol. attempting to improve his first statem ent.
 KoshoI said that he has only lived in this city for about a month. As he had no previous record in court, Judge Wilder let him off with a fine of $1a and costs and Is days in jail, remarking that the punishment would be more severe but for the fact that it was first offence.
 Andrew Elko and Joseph Suffeik, two small boys arrested yesterday as part of the gang, were placed under the care of Probation Officer Cam , field.
 Railroad detectives say that SO thick has the swarm of young toughs been on the railroad viaduct in the East End that engineers are afraid to drive their trains through the place Some of the trespassers put obstacles on the tracks, to see the trains hit them. Another diversion consisted of throwing stones at pass ing cars. So frequent were the com plaints from this section that the roads detective force was detailed to break up the gang. It is estimated that between 50 and 50 youngsters are intermittent members of the gang.
