A Republican majority in the all
 dermanic body of the city govern
 ment last night succunibed to the re-
 commentators of the Streets and
 Sidewalks committee and presented
 the Nichols street extension, from
 Kossuth street to the water front, in cluding valuable water front prop
 erty at the foot of the street to the Salts Textile Co. The Democratic
 minority and Republican Alderman Henry A. Lewis vigorously opposed
 the move and sought to have the
 matter laid over until the next meet ing, but they were overwhelming de- feated.
 Alderman Lewis in arguing that the matter be set aside for further in vestigation said:-
 eff this property is worth anything to the Salts Textile company, and it unquestionably is as the foot of the street is valuable water front prop erty, I believe that the company
 should pay for it accordingly. The city attorney should look into this
 matter before the City of Bridgeport gives this valuable parcel of land to the company"
 Alderman Hogan presented a reso- lutfon asking that the assistant city attorney be instructed to produce a history of Nichols street from the time of it's acceptance to the present time, howfng the money expended by the city in improving and securing the thoroughfare. The resolution was re- ferred to the assistant city attorney | by Alderman McManus.
 Samuel P. Senior of the Bridgeport I Hydraulic Go. and other company of l ficials protested the closing of the street because the main pipe line be- l tween the East Side and the city proper runs through the street. ! The aldermen who voted to close the l street were J. Stone, Walter Moore

GREAT ICE FLOE
 BRUSHES BOAT
 MEN ARE SAVED

New York, Feb. 3-A great ice foe crushed a small duck boat in Jamaica. Bay at midnight last night, causing two fishermen to drown while the two other occupants saved their lives by clambering onto the floating ice and finally swimming to shore.
 The fishermen were on their way to oyster beds on Smelk Island when the mass of ice 1oomed before them in the fog. Before they could change their course the frail craft was ground to pieces and all four thrown into the water. Stanley and Clay ton Lundy, brothers, disappeared a1- most immediately. Another broth- CT, Allen Lundy and Edward Shecy- teton, managed to climb upon the foe after a desperate struggle. Their l cries for help being unheeded, they 1 were forced to swim to the shore.

Democratic Minority and Alderman Lewis Enter Vigorous Protest Against
 Procedure.

John Renchy, A. A. Baker. Ralph Beers, Edward T. Hamilton, John L.. Lyons, Alfred W. Burdick and Paul D'Elia, all Republicans. Those who voted to have the matter laid over until the next meeting were Aldermen Henry A. Lewis, Republican, and William H. Hogan, John J. Ford. and Charles W. Freeman, Democrats.
 Ordinances increasing the salaries of members of the Board of Relief from S350 to $500 a year, effective April 1, 1920, and also the members of the Board of Selectmen from $1O0 to $200 were adopted. Alderman Hogan protested the adoption and urged that the ordinance be laid upon the table until it could be ascertained how many days a year the members of the respective boards work. but the motion was overru1ed.
 A letter was read from the So- ciety of Propagation of Cremation in which the city was asked to create an ordinance for the cremation of the pauper dead which are now be- ing buried in Potter's field. The society also asked for the establish ment of a crematory that could be used for cremating any other bod ies when desired.

Foolish Occupation No. 191953 BLOWING THE FLAME TO MAKE IT CATCH.

It's quite a bit of bother when one is forced to fan a flame or blow it. Things might be cas- fer if the stove had a thorough cleaning out. A stove scraper, purchased for the sum of 10c, will do this work most effici- ently. If the clay in the stove is cracked OF broken, that can easily be remedied by using Rutland Fire Clay.

The man who first observed the tiny
wavering wisp of smoke which crawled
its tenuous way from one of the Gothic
pnnacles on the north side of the
Woolworth tower came in yesterday
morning from Hagerstown, Md. 1t was
his first visit, and his first view of
the worlds most exalted office struc-
| ture. Therefore when he discovered
the smoke, although he felt instinc-
lively that where there is smoke there
is bound to be fire, he was a trifle
diffdent about ! announcing his dis
covery to the scurrying human whirl-
pool which eddicd around him.
eff Teller didn't know better, che
said beneathe his breath, "he'd think
the blame thing was on fire, doggone if
he wouldn't
His timorous undertone reached the
ears Of cigar clerk killing belated
lunch hour. He caught the word fire,
and became curious. Anything with
fire or murder appeals to the average
New Yorker, who is violent in his in
clinations though usually mild in his
application of them to his daily life.
"Whazzat?" demanded the cigar
clerk.
Nothing" the man from Hagers-
town, Md, said, fearful of giving Of
Tense to some Wall Street millionaire
II was just saying that if a Teller
didn't know different he might think
it was on fire."
"Whazzon fire." the cigar man de-
handed, now thoroughly aroused.
"The Woolworth Building" the man
from Hagerstown, Md, explained,
apologetically.
The cigar man planted his feet
firmly ON the asphalt and craned his
neck for the first time in many moons.
"Imasonuvagun," he decided after
due consideration. ut is on fire"
