STOVE EXPLODED
 ON BEACON STREET
Some Damage Done in the Kitchen But Nobody
 Seriously Injured
THE FIREMEN CALLED

A gas stove in the home of Mrs Elizabeth Mango of "A Beacon street exploded yesterday noon and resulted in an alarm being regis- tered at fire headquarters. The blast wrecked the stove and caused considerable damage to the kitchen. Mrs Mango escaped ser- ious injury. Several companies of apparatus responded to the alarm, which was registered at 12:43 o'clock. There was no fire to com bat. Bremen assisted the Man. go family in picking up the debris.
 The one-family dwelling of Michael Giordano on Warner street in the Long Hill section of the city was destroyed by fire yes terday morning. The fire had ap- parently been burning some time before neighbors discovered 1t. No one was at home at the time and the cause of the blaze was un- known to fire officials. The dwell ling located in sparsely settled neighborhood was too far removed from the nearest hydrant to make the presence of fire men of any great value. An alarm from Box 252 was sent in at 12:25 a. m. fo. this blaze.
 A false alarm was registered from Box 552 at 9:55 o'clock last evening. The box is located near the corner of Baldwin and Luke streets.

CROWDS VISITED
 THE CITY PARKS
Labor Day Brought a Large Attendance to
 See Ball Games
THE WEATHER IDEAL

Yesterday was an ideal day for an outing and many took advan- tage of it to spend a few hours in the country. A very large num- Der spent the day out of town, but this did not interfere with large crowds in the city parks. Pass ing the highways abutting on these places one would think that all the people in Waterbury had remained in their home town and were join- ed by thousands from other towns.
 The shouts of men, women and children at the ball games when somebody made a good catch or a home run showed how we'll the crowds enjoyed the sport. The city officials deserve much credit for furnishing an opportunity to all the people to spend few hours in the public parks. It is not the good fortune of everybody te be able to go to the shore or.fhe noun tains, but all can reach the parks and enjoy a few hours in good company and under excellent management.
