 Apparently bubbling over with elation at the overwhelming repub- lican victory at the polls yesterday, party representatives in the head quarters located in the Old Bristol Water Co. office on Main street, left last evening apparently without locking the door. A resident of one of the outlying sections of the city not knowing that the water depart ment had moved to its new head quarters on Riverside avenue, went 10 the old location and finding the door unlocked, walked in. He seat ed himself in one of the chairs in the lobby and although much surprised to find no one there, waited for half an hour, when two republican con- mittee members walked in. They were as much surprised as the man who was waiting and apparently so confused that they neglected 10 in- form him of the water boards new office. The man q few minutes later walked into headquarters and was properly directed to the object of his search.
