The resignation of Anna McDon- aid, assistant kindergartner in the Bunker Hill and Russell schools, was accepted at yesterdays meeting of the board of education. This resig- nation will become effective at the close of the session on Jan. IT. To fill Miss McDonald's place the board transferred Bernice M. Harper, as- sistant kindergartner at Barnard and Mulcahy schools. It was also voted that Barnard and Mulcahy kindergartens, because of their small enrolment, will function with only one kindergarten teacher ia the future.
 No Increases
 The board took exception to state ments recently published in the Waterbury American to the ef- feet that regular salaries of janitors had been increased. President John J. Walsh, .Supt. T. J. Condon, Comsrs. Harry B. Post and Louis E. Bria, declared that the only in- creases were mandatory, either eff fective because of length of service, or due to promotions to fill vacan- cies caused by death or resignations. The erroneous impression given was to the effect that more than $2,0OO in salary increases were put through last week for school department janitors. The increase in salary real ly affected employees of the city engineering department and em- ployes of several city departments, not school janitors.
 Amendments Voted
 The board, on recommendation of the committee on finance, asked that the board of finance and the board of alderman change the word- ing of the following items in the printed budget for the year 1889 to conform to the wording in the bud- get estimates as submitted by the board of education. The committee on finance stated that the present wording is either not inclusive or is erroneous.
 The changes recommended are as follows:
 From Extra pay for school enumeration at five cents a name"

Special to The Democrat)


 Ridgefield, Conn.,, Jan. 17-Vic- tins of burglaries which netted loot amounting to S150000, of which about two thirds have been recov- cred and stored in the barracks of the Connecticut State Police at Gov- ernor street and High Ridge in Ridgefield, inspected the recovered property today in the hope of iden- tifying their own. All day yester- day trucks and automobiles drew up before the barracks until about eight rooms of the building were filled with the recovered loot.
 The caches of stolen property were discovered by the police in New York city with the help of AL fred Findlay, one of the prisoners who was arrested recently. Oriental rugs worth in all at least $50,00O were among the property recovered, and they filled all five rooms on the third floor of the barracks. The rifle range in the basement became storeroom for 200 garments, and the motorcycle garage was filled with other garments and dozens of blankes, among them many Hudson Rays.
 Mrs. Ezra Fitch, of Watertown, was among the victims of the plundering. It is estimated that she lost about $3,00O in old silver.
 The four prisoners in the burg laries, who pleaded guilty at pre- liminary arraignment last Saturday night, are in jail in Bridgeport, awaiting further hearing in Dan- bury Town court Friday.

Sponsors Bill to Award Services of Doctors,
 Nurses, Druggists
By RAYMOND J. FITZPATRICK Democrat Legislative RepOrter)

Democrat Legislative Reporter)
 State Capitol, Hartford, Jan. IT, A bill removing the limit of $100 now placed on the expense of the last illness of Old Age Pension bene- ficiaries was introduced in the legis- lature today by Senator Edward P. Egan of Waterbury. The measure would eliminate the restriction of $100 that can now be paid to hos pitals, doctors, nurses, druggists and others for services in the last illness of one receiving old age pension. It would also end the present $100 limit for funeral expenses.
 Under the present law, the state is given preference in its claim against the estate of an old age pension beneficiary. Senator Egans bill would have the state claims hold priority, except for administrative expenses of the estate, medical, hos pital, and other expenses of the pen- sioner's last illness, and expenses for the funeral and purchase of a burial plot.
 MT. Egan says: "The hospitals nurses, doctors, druggists and others have all suffered under the present Act by rendering service and then finding that the state has a prior claim in certain cases even though these doctors, druggists and nurses have rendered services in good faith and without knowledge of the state claim. Senator Egan's bill removes the limitation on the expense of last illness and raises it from $100 tc $250 for funeral expenses which latter amount he claims is the minimum required for proper burial"
