Twin Brothers
 Tried to Die
sContinued from Page 1)

Since they were eight years old and left school because of the dis ease, they had hoped someday to be cured, Stephen, still conscious, but critically i'll. explained to hos pital attendants.
 "But during the last months. when the doctors decided we were doomed we lost hope" the boy explained, 'and we figured it would be better if we died right away. for our mothers sake. She's been working herself to death for us."
 During recent months the boys illness, steadily growing worse for years, became 90 serious neither could leave his wheel chnir.
 Several months ago another broth CT, William, found a bottle of metal lie mercury which had escaped de- struction with other freight when there was d wreck on the railroad line where he works. He took it home and placed 1t on shelf in a medicine cabinet.
 It was about the same time that the twins began losing the hope they had lived on for years. During the months that followed they watched the bottle as their hopes idueu BTduudily, uhtA lhey iSdAhSu there was no chance for them to recover.
 Two younger children of the fam fly of seven were sent from the room yesterday on invented er- rands. Thomas, the stronger of the twins, pulled himself up to the medicine cabinet. He obtained the bottle and it's contents were divided in two glasses.
 Then the brothers faced each other in their wheel chairs. lifted their glasses and drank their toast to death.

Payment of
 Personal Tax
Delinquents Must Pay the Extra Assessment Re-
 quired By Law

An average of fifty letters daily are received by Personal Tax Collec- tor George Stokes containing either $2 checks or two dollars in bills for payment of personal tax bills. These are promptly sent back as the one dollar extra assessment is due and those who send their money for the bills must add this dollar.
 About 100 delinquents day are contributing three dollars to the per- sonal tax collector. Many of them come in to make the payment and when they are told that an extra dollar is requested they walk out and promise to return later.
 Some of these, said MT Stokes Knowing that they will have to pay the three dollars are waiting until they can spare the extra dollar. However, collections are going in daily.
 Most of the men who sent in the two dollar checks are business men. it was learned. Evidently thinking that a check will be accepted for the two dollar tax, they send them in, but these are promptly sent back.

Connecticut Co. Moves To Serve
 East Mountain Site
Hearing Monday Before Public Utilities Commission Will Develop No Opposition Extenson of Flaniil- ton Avenue Route to Cover Proposed Links

Establishment of bus route from Waterbury to the East Mountain reservoir property is proposed by the Connecticut company. Petition for permission to open this service has been filed with the Public Utilities commission at Hartford by the com pany and hearing on the matter will be heard Monday morning at 10:30 o'clock.
 The move on the part of the Con- necticut company in seeking per- mission to establish the new bus service Is prompted by the city's de- cision to build a golf course on the East Mountain reservoir property, it is believed. Needless to say, there will be no opposition to the com pany's petition when it is heard hv

the Public Utilities commission.
 At the present time the Hamilton avenue bus goes as far as Pearl Lake road and there 1t turns around and comes back. It does not proceed up East Mountain. The new route represents nothing more than, an extension of the Hamilton bus route. It is likely that with the bus route extended to the reservoir proptrty, which is located partly in the town of Prospect, residents of Prospect will make efforts later to have the service carried into the center of their village.
 On Monday morning, also the Connecticut company's petition for permission to extend its bus service on the Meriden-Cheshire line will be heard by the commission.

He then brought suit against the Aid association, claim ing he was entitled to compensa- ton as full fledged member of the association.
 According to the terms of the set- clement reached between counsel yesterday, the check for $103 covers the number of days he was laid up, with the exception of the first four days, which are not compensab1e &C., cording to the association's charter. The defendant also will pay court costs under the agreement.

whether the poison would prove ia tai.
 Both the boys smiled when told they must wait so long for death if 1t was to come at all by their own hands. Waiting, they said, was all they had done for years, so they wouldn't mind it now.
 But 1t will be better if we die," said Thomas. Then they won't have to lock at us anymore"
 Their mother, Mrs Eleanor Hall, and their father, Joseph, were di- vorced a year ago. With the ex- ception of William, all the chill dren are younger than the twins, ranging in age from 10 to 18.

Shamrocks Arrive
 For St. Patrick s Day
Post Offce Officials Report Appearance of Annual
 Fiarbinger

Little boxes of shamrocks, re- ninders of the Emerald Isle, are being received daily by Water burians who have kinsfolk in Ire- land. These little representatives of Ireland are sent each year around St. Patrick's day and can be classified as messages of good will and re- membrance.
 Post office officials stated to-day that the shamrocks are commencing
The Waterbury Democrat., 1931-03-14

to come in and have been coming in the latter part of the week in great numbers.
 The first part of next week will see the little green plants flooding the post office waiting for delivery.
 There is no more descriptive symbol of Ireland than the sham rock and those in Waterbury who came to this country from across the sea are glad to see the little re- minders of their homeland.
