Lake Is Abed

Matters in baseball can't be
so black as they are sometimes
painted. At least one baseball
club, the Pittsburgh Pirates, is
increasing expenditures instead
OF reducing them. The Waner
boys, Paul and Lloyd, have been
signed for 1888 with increased
salaries.
Their contracts are. supposed
to return to the figures Stipu-
lated for 1881 and in the case
OF Lloyd a little better than he
got season before last. Both
boys took a cut last season.

How many garments Mrs w. J. Slatorss press notices have brought us t1o one ca nestimate. We deeply appreciate her generous service.

The RooseveIt- Cross club of Wa terbury, which came into existence shortly after the selection of the democratic candidate, Franklin D. Roosevelt, at the Chicago conven- ton is to remain intact and to function in the future as a branch of a state and nationwide organ ization, the Young Democratic clubs of America. A petition for a charter has already been granted to the officers of the present Roosevelt Cross club and John F.. Robinson, president, has been au- thorized to take official action in the formation of, similar groups throughout the fifth congressional district. Tentative plans have been discussed for the establishment of clubs at once in Naugatuck, Wa tertown, Seymour, T6rrington and other towns in the district.
 Hartford has a flourishing or ganization, which figured promi- nently in the election campaign. A club also exists in Torrington and it was stated today that the first state convention will be held within a few weeks.
 The Waterbury club on the oc- casion of it's formal organization as unit of the Young Democratic Clubs of America plans to make the event of statewide interest. Prominent state and national leaders will visit Waterbury for the ceremonies.
 The part played by the newly formed club in the past campaign was so .cohspicuous as to win a word of praise from James s. Far ley of New York, chairman of the national democratic committee: Today, John Crary, chairman of the local democratic town com mittee. congratulated MT Robin son and his club on their efforts. sHe voiced the appreciation of the town committed of the Roosevelt clubs efforts and it's willingness to cooperate in any possible manner to place Waterbury among the foreulost democratic communities

ROBINSON ITO PUSH "F. D." CLUBS
JERSEY COAST WAS SWEPT BY
 FIERCE GALES
Caused Trouble Along Long Island Sound Hundred of Families Driven From Homes in New Jersey

New York, Nov 10-CUP)-A heavy northeast gale sweeping the. Jersey coast and along Long Island sound left scores homeless to-day, with traffic snar1ed and many areas damaged by high, tides and waves flashing shore cities.
 one death was attributed direct '1y to the storm at Camden, N. J., where a pedestrian. buffeted by the wind and rain, was run over by a motor bus. He was David Me- Bride, 50, of 1166 Atlantic avenue. One hundred families were driven from their homes in Salem, N. J., when the Delaware river backed up and inundated seven city blocks.
 Police battIed the storm for five hours off Great Kills, Staten Island, to rescue Otto Hem and William Hetzel, two fishermen who had put out in a rowboat to bring in a mo- tor launch and couldn't get back.
 The police attempted to shoot life lines, but the wind blew the lines back in their faces. The boat began to drag anchor. A coast guard cutter from the Rosebank station also attempted to shoot aboard a life line, but without suc--' cess. Finally, in a, cove half Q mile up the shore, line was put aboard and the vessel hauled in. s Sewers on Welfare Island, site of the city penitentiary, were un- able to carry off the downpour of water. The backing water flooded the boiler room of the administra- tion building, which heats the en- tire penitentiary, to a depth of 10 inches, six inches below the dan- ger point. Firemen, manning two. syphon pumps managed to lower

of Connecticut. Shortly after its organization several weeks ago resolutions pledging the clubs support were sent to Mir Crary and also to David Wilson, chairman of the democratic state central committee.
 MT Robinson remarking on the status of the Roosevelt-Cross club stated today it's membership was greatly enthused over the success of the campaign in Waterbury. He paid splendid tribute to the lead- ,ership of Mir Crary and the effic- iency of the democratic town com mittee. "One of the most impress sive features of the campaign in my opinion," Mir Robinson re- marked, today, Twas the public's interest in the election and it's eagerness to vote. Thousands made their way to the polls without waiting to be reminded and with out desiring transportation to be furnished them. This spirit and the splendid democratic victory achieved were to me outstanding features.
 The purpose of the Young Dem ocratic Clubs of America Ifs to instill and preserve in the young people of the United States an interest in governmental affairs and to further the ideals and prin- ciples of the democratic party"
 The organization shall endorse and actively support nominees and policies determined in regular party conventions.
 The organization is strictly non- factiona1 and will not lend itself to the promotion OI hindrance of any pre-convention of pre-primary candidacy for any national or state office.
 The organization, cooperating with the regular party organiza ton shall at all times maintain it's separate identity.
 More detailed information con- cerning the new club will be given later when the various units of the state convene.
