 The closeness with which the Y. M. c. A. sticks to it's budget is shown by the fact that the total expendi- lures of $144,910 for Il months is just $332 more than was budgeted. Likewise, the receipts were $45O more than estimated for the Il months.
 The budget for the year May 1st, 1888 to 1889, was $161,966 of which $38,125 is needed in subscriptions. The directors voted that the $l,401 which the campaign fell short of securing must be secured, in order

Minimum Legal Fees
 Get Much Support
Action By Hartford County Bar Association Wins
 Favor Among Waterbury Lawyers

Adoption of set of minimum fees for legal work by the Hartford County Bar association finds favor with Waterbury lawyers who were questioned by The Democrat, Several lawyers were called and each expressed the wish that similar system could be put into ef- feet here.
 None of the barristers was willing to be quoted, however, if his name was used. Said one of them: Here in Waterbury people with legal work to be done shop around before they make up their minds. They get prices from five or six lawyers and give their business to the one who charges the least.'
 Shopping Around"
 Prevention of shopping around" was one of the principal reasons for the adoption of the minimums by the upstate lawyers. The minimuns voted last month, have been publish ed in phamphlet form.
 No punishment is provided for lawyers who offer lower prices than the minimums. The committee which drew up the schedule of fees. however, believes that all lawyers will follow it for their own protect ion.
 The schedule of minimum fees adopted in Hartford is as follows:
 Assignment of mortage and note conference, $5; simple bill of sale, $5; bond for deed (ordinary) per party, $5; ordinary building contract per party, $10; ordinary conditional bill of sale, $5; ordinary short form lease (W. o. search) per party, $5; mechanics lien (requiring examina- ton of record), $1O, and with notice of intent to claim, $l5; mortage deed and note (W. O. search), $1O; simple partnership agreement, $1O; ordinary power of attorney, $5; sum- mary process, first notice (including conference and sheriff's feel, $3.5O; summary process writ (not including disbursements), $5; completion Of judgment (including all disburse-

eral weeks ago. Reports of various teams last evening at the final meetingf of the campaign showed donations and subscriptions amount inging to $36,599.
 AS number of pledges are be- iieved forthcoming the full quota is expected to be realized and perhaps oversubscribed to make up for any unexpected delinquincies on the part of several who have made pledfges in good faith.
 Voices Appreciation
 Herbert s. Smith, general secre- tary, voiced the Y. M. c. As appre- ciation of the public's generosity at last evenings meeting when nearly $11,000 in pledges were officially reported. Special committees re- ported liberal donations. The small industries group reported $516 and the Scovill Manufacturing team $500. The commercial committee, $1,807.90 and the industrial team $2O5.
 The American Brass Go. team came through with $196 in the in- dustrial division and the Chase Co. group reported $147.50 in it's final report.
 Of the individual teams, that led by William J. Latimer was the highest for the night with $201. Close second was $200 reported by Idris Aldersons team. Other teams figures were reported by their cap- tains as follows: Thomas P. Ash ton, $7S.50; Joseph DiPietro, $155: Irwin w. Davis, $153; Samuel P. Williams, 3d, $98; Alex Bryan, $66.5O; George w.

 The April meeting of the board of directors of the Y. M. c. A. was held immediately following the close of the financial canvass. John B. Goss, chairman of the executive committee, presided in the absence of President Dr. Charles L. Larkin.
 Plans were made for the annual meeting of the Y. M. c. A.. The nominating committee was named as follows: From the board, Levi Will COX and E. Rowland Chase, and from the membership, Joseph F. Kenny, president of the Inter-Club council; Francis W. LeveSque, pres ldenut-elect of the Young Mems

Standings of the entries in THE MOST POPULAR BABY CONTEST will appear in THE DEMOCRAT Monday, the CONTEST MANAGER assured us today.
 All of the entries are registered and most of the pictures have been prepared for publication in THE DEMOCRAT. All that remains now is for the candidates to show their stuff" and make progress towards the valuable goal of the first grand prize, $1OO CASH, besides a beautiful loving cup and the title, MOST POPULAR BABY"
 800 Votes At Once Every entry was credited with 800 votes immediately after entering. Now, every subscription to THE DEMOCRAT, under the rules of the CONTEST, will count as 200 more votes.
 Thus, if you obtain 10 subscrip- tions to THE DEMOCRAT, it will mean 2,OOO votes plus the 500 your candidate already has, or 2,500 votes, which is very good for the start of the CONTEST. Getting sub- scriptions is the easiest thing lm- aginable.
 All you'll have to do is to get your friends who are not now receiving THE DEMOCRAT, and who have not been subscribers within 30 days, to take THE DEMOCRAT by the regular carrier service. The carrier collects IS cents weekly. YOU DON'T HAVE TO COLLECT ANY MONEY OR DO ANY WORK.
 Here's something IMPORTANT! You parents who have not received the fine gift for the BABY which THE DEMOCRAT has for you, are requested to call in at THE DEMO- GRAF office, ask for the CONTEST MANAGER, and get this present. Many of the entries have received the gifts. A few have not been reached and the gifts are held here tor them.
 Today we have pictures of eight youngsters, of varying ages, all oftl- cially entered in THE MOST POP ULAR BABY CONTEST.

 Next: Joan Kennedy. 21 months old daughter of MT. and Mrs. C.. Kennedy of 96 Giles street. Here's a cute youngsters who has that wist- full expression around the mouth and a laughter in the eyes which might be the makings, later, of some young man calling to ask: "Terem pogue." (The spelling is of the phonetic variety)
 Joseph Petrozio
 Number three is of a young man man named Joseph Pietrozio, Il months old son of Mrs. Theresa Pietrozio, of Davis street, Oakville. Joseph said to Signor Leonardo, the camera artist: Mon posse parlari Italiano pero mi piache multi la lingua de mi madre." He remarked that it won't be long until he can sing % Sole Mio' with the best of them.
 Joan Pedan
 Another little girl, this time one with great big blue eyes. if the pic ture tells us rightly. Her name is Joan Pedan and she is the 2-year- old daughter of MT. and Mrs. Alex Pedan, of Is Simsbury street. Per- haps she said to the cameraman when he had finished taking the picture: "Tak sa mykert", which, when properly spelled and with a symbol like an "o' over the "a" in "sa'', might mean, Thanks so much. She looks very polite and dignified too.
 Anna Marie CurtO
 Anna Marie Curto, 19 months old daughter of MT. and Mrs. Angelo Curto, 289 South Leonard street, was all ready to tell the cameraman something when he snapped her picture. That's why her mouth is open, perhaps. Or maybe her mo- ther was holding a lollypop right in front of Anna Marie, telling her to watch the birdie"

 And Donald Robert Triano, 10 months old son of MT. and Mrs. Charles Triano, of 371 High street. Naugatuck, also wanted to say some thing, if the picture tells the truth.
