General Remley will continue in office
for another year the present incum
bents, In all about 2.000 of state,
county and township officials to which
successors were chosen at the elec

the officers so elected can assume their
offices at tlie expiration of the year
as they were elected for the teVm to
begin the first Monday inn January,

'ABOUT COXSOLIDATIOX.
Principal Matter" to Be Adjusted Is
Question of Taxation.
It' is hoped that the committee ap
pointed by the board of. aldermen to
draft a bill pertaining to consolidation
will get together and report back to
the aldermen not later than December
15. The principal matter to be adjust
ed in the meusure Is the question of
taxation and if the committee can hit
upon a system of taxation that will
be equitable they will confer a great
blessing upon the people who live in
the rural districts, as well as on those
whose homes are situated inside the
old city lines. If a bill should be
passed that would be as unsatisfac
tory as the one making the city line
co-terminal with that of the Center
district has turned out to be, there
will be no end of trouble over it. The
people on the outskirts might just as
well make up their minds now, ns lat
er, that if they' want to get public im
provements they will have to pay for
them. Look at the condition of peo
ple in ' the added district. They re
ceive little or nothing from the city,
and the town will not turn a hand for
them, and, in consequence, they are
worse off to-day than they were before
they were "taken in." Xo administra
tion wants to give them anything.
When the republicans were at the helm
they ridiculed the idea of giving the
"outsiders'' water, sewers, lights and
sidewalks, on the same condition as
petitioners in the old city limits, so
long as the latter were paying twice
the amount of taxes as the former.
The present administration has done
a little better than this, but it has not
gone far enoughto suit the demands
of people who thought that once they
got inside the line all they had to do
was ask for improvements and they
would be forthcoming, no matter how
manifestly unfair the rate of taxation
lnigut nave neon. Ao ilouut tlie com
mittee will give this phase of the bill
the attention it requires, and endeavor
to fix things so as to lay proportion
al loads on each. It is all well
enough to talk about the political as
pect of the case, but in the opinion
of a vast majority of the owners of
property in the town aud city the po
litical end of the game is a small af
fair compared with the financial side
of it. the question of taxation, that
concerns every man who owns a foot
of property, no matter what his poli
tics may be. Let us have no advan
tage of each other politically and an
equitable adjustment of the matter of
taxation and then all will be well, no
matter which party happens to be in
the ascendency.
E0AED OF PUBLIC SAFETY
Met and Approved the Half Monthly
Payroll.
The board of public safety met last
night and approved tlie half monthly
payrolls, as follows: Fire department,
$809.22; police department. $1,277.81.
John C. Thompson, foreman of Hose
company Xo 5. was heard in reference
to the purchase of bed clothes for
bunkers at the house. The chief was
without authority to purchase such
supplies as are needed for Xo a's and
the other volunteer companies. The
petitions for a lire alarm box at the
corner of Xorth Main and Ludlow
strets and at the corner of Welton and
East Main streets, referred to the
board by the aldermen, were consid
ered, and a vote passed instructing the
clerk to inform the aldermen that the
funds on hand would not warrant the
outlay. The application of the Brass
City "Athletic club for permission to
give a sparring exhibition, no date
mentioned, was received and laid on
the table, the board being of the opin
ion that It would not be well to grant
more than one such petition each'
month. Licenses have already been
granted for the months of November
and December. Certificates were re
ceived from the Connecticut Steam
Boiler. Insurance and Inspection Co.
stating that the boiler of Engine Xo
1 is in good condition, aud that the
boiler of Engine Xo 2 is in such condi
tion that after this year a new boiler
will have to be procured. Michael
Mansfield appeared before the board
and signed his application for appoint
ment as a supernumerary policeman.
The board adjourned until the regular
meeting in December.

' THE CADET GIRL."
Dan Daly and the Big Production at
Poli's.
Tlie local management announces
the production of "The Cadet Girl" on
Wednesday evening of next week at
Poli's. and those who know anything
of the show business will realize the
importance of tlie announcement.
"The Cadet Girl'' is the musical com
edy which A. H.Chamberlyn, manager
of the Columbian theater In Boston,
brought out at the Herald Square the
ater. Xew York, last summer. It en
joyed the most tremendous success in
spite of most innumerable obstacles
thrown in its way by jealous rival
managers and their sympathetic critics,
packing the theater to overflowing dur
ing seven weeks of the hottest weath
er and wringing from unfriendly crit
ics the admission that it was the "great
est tiling in the way of musical com
edy ever attempted iu America. The
salary list of the company is nearly
S4.000 a week, there being actually
eighty-three people in the'organization,
aud Mr Charmbeiiyn promises to bring
every one cf them here. He does not
expect to ' make a dollar during his
week's tour of Connecticut, his pur
pose in making the tour being ta show
our people the character of the at
tractions he presents at his Columbia
theater in Boston.
In the company, in addtition to the
world renowned Dan Daly, are George
A. Schiller, William Cameron. W. P.
Carleton. Charles Dnnby, Charlie Dox,
Harry Dodd, Charles M. Bowers,
Adele Ritchie, Toby Claude, Catherine
Lewis, Edna Floyd. Maude Thomas
and many others, including the re
nowned chorus which the press of Xew
York. Boston and Philadelphia have
pronounced the most beautiful ever
seen in this country.
Waterbury is specially fortunate in
being included in Mr Chamberlyn'3
itinerary of Connecticut.
TEACHER OF TRAINING SCHOOL
Removed to the Hospitau Yesterday
With Typhoid Fever.
It is said a great amount of sickness
prevails among the pupils of the Wa
terbury training school. Every other
day at least one or more of the young
ladies are detained home by sickness.
Miss Catherine Hennessey, of Wall
street, has been absent from school
about six weeks, on account of an at
tack of typhoid fever. She is still at
home. Last week Miss Olive M. Ly
ford, assistant principal of the school,
was also seized with an attack of ty
phoid fever, and yesterday was re
moved from her residence, 119 Cen
tral avenue, to the hospital. Miss
Lyford's sickness is a cause of much
regret, not only to tlie principal. Miss
Finch, and he second assistant. Miss
Bolian, but also the young ladies of
the training school, with whom she
has become a favorite on account of
her desire to aid and assist them in
every manner. Miss Lyford will not
be able to resume her duties for at
least four weeks, during which time
her place will be filled by Miss Finch
and Miss Bohan. Besides, this, affairs
at the training school are progressing
most favorably. During the past
week a change has been effected. The
young ladies who have belonged to the
model department have been changed
to the practice department, and vice
versa. Miss Finch is highly satisfied
with the work of the members of both
departments thus far. and as the
young ladies are exceedingly pleased
with the methods which have been em
ployed by Miss Finch and her assist
ants, there can be no doubt that the
first year of the training school will
be a gala success.
