them are coached by All-America

doubt that the majority Of them
are as receptive as we were.
And Rock, fresh on the Job,

was doing things in new ways.
He was first TO send decoys

 So Waterbury Republican Hangs Out Sale Notice

with its plank 'Toujours pret" for another epidenmic: come out to Watertown avenue and see what you'll be paying for until 1874.
 Such sly humor as mixing oi similies of dead horses and ele- phants with Architectural arteric sclerosis" and proud pachyderm' covers the meat of the matter by the Republican account. The fact is that in isolation hospital dwells proof of the lengths to which the Republicans went in their imperil- ling of the city's financial future long before more recent regimes floundered in the morass of debt out of proportion with even depres- sion doldrums.
 The isolation hospital never wal a pet project of the board of health under which 1t became hopeless expense through the years, a Re- publican white elephant" The Republican planes the Waterbury Medical Association, neglects tc explain the political phases of all area of such rugged individualism as Waterbury is unlikely to know again.
 Financial Statistics
 The original loans for building the hospital, given as $375, 900, will require interest payments of $409,- 500. And MT. Pape's Republican, reciting "Thest almost unbelievable figures are from records in the con- troller's office," finds, at long last that part of Waterbury's immense debt, around $18,000,000, is blood kin to Republican sporting at ducks and drakes with the city's coffers almost 20 years ago.
 Presently, the isolation hospital houses WPA sewing and other projects, Its roof repaired tempo rarily." There are about 75 to 100 men and women working there and, while the expense of upkeep no longer occupies budget space provision has been made under the welfare department to heat the building so that its work-day ten- ants may labor instead of becoming again clients or the welfare depart ment.

Two Rescuers Standing By--Leaking Badly at

New York, Jan. 23.-(UP)-Two re scue ships neared the stricken Dutch freighter s. s. Parklaan, early today as 1t made for the Azores - 1000 miles away after sending an sos in mid-Atlantic It was leaking badly at the water line.
 The British passenger ship Carare also was going to the Parklaan's as- sistance. The New York weather bureau reported that the forecast was for fair weather and calm sea in the vicinity of the stricken vessel. The first sos from the 2,807 ton ship was intercepted by MacKay radio. The Parklaan gave her posi- tion as 36.45 degrees north latitude, 49 degrees west longitude-about midway between the Azores and the United States.
 The Parklaan had told the Hah- seer she was proceeding to the Azores for repairs. Four hours la ter she sent out her first sos. It was picked up by the Italian pas senger steamer Vulcania. Radiomarine at Chatham, Mass, picked up message from the Vul- cania which read:
 sos from S. s. Parklaan 37.22 north 49.14 west. Also the s. s, California Standard (panamanian freighter) reports that the s. S. Deerpool expected to arrive at posi- ton given for s. s. Parklaan at day light.

Coolest weather of 1899 swept down on Waterbury early today, part of the general cold wave enveloping the north and northwest of this country and Canada.
 Between the hours of and 6 o'clock, the mercury of the official thermometer of Plumbing Inspector James. R. Walker read 6 degrees above Aero. This represented 34- degree drop from the maximum of 40 degrees ystrday noon.

surprise nominee for the post or state labor commissioner, to suc- ceed Joseph A. Tone. The two So- cialist senators are opposed to the appointment, but whether they will take their opposition to the point of voting against confirmation is debaable. The two Socialists, whose votes enabled the l6 Republicans to gain control of the Senate despite the fact that the Democrats have l7 members, want the Republicans to support legislation for them and may be unwilling to oppose the gov- ernor this early in the session.
 In the Republican house there will be much opposition to Cover nor Baldwin's plan for single-type of liquor license. Rural legislators, in many cases, feel that this would mean a return of the saloon.
 The governors fiscal proposals will also be strongly opposed. A number of Democrats and Repub- licans alike will oppose closing of the state teachers colleges at New Haven and Willimantic and two SLdJe IraQe SCHOOLS.
 Diversion of highway funds into other channels will also find voluble opposition in both senate and house. Factions of both major par ties fear this would make necessary the practice of issuing bonds for state highway construction.
 The reform of the minor courts proposed by the governor will also be opposed. Small-town Republicans will not like the idea of having their courts eliminated, and num- erous biennial appointment "plums" taken away.
 Similarly, . number of other pro- posals by the Republican governor will be battled in committee and on the floors of the house and senate.
