-30ARD OF ALDERMEN;
Mayor Kilduff Will Represent
the
City in.,CkarIeston, .;, . .
The loard of aldernjeu met Jast
night, there being .present Chairman
Hall, and Aldermen . White, I Blukeslee,
Gosh. Cross; , Walker, Callan; Chessou,
Phelan, Mahaney. Bovlan and Morris.
A few petitions for abatement on
city tuxes were read and referred to
the committee on abatements.
The claim of Robert Somers for dam
age to horse and harness on Riverside
street was referred to the committee
on law. Similar action was taken on
the claim of Archie L. Stanton for dam
age caused by falling over a retaining
wall near Rock street. '
The communication from the city en
gineer in reference to the completion
of piiving'in certain streets was re
ceived and placed on file.
At this juncture Mr (Joss asked if
any order is observed regarding the
levying of paving assessments. The
clerk stated that there will be a com
munication submitted to the next meet
ing of the board on this subject, the
Idea being to wait until they get all of
them together and act upon them in
a block.
A communication was received from
the board of public safety, stating
there is not money enough on hand to
meet the cost of fire alarm boxes this
season. On motion of Mr Gosa the pe
titions were referred back for consid
eration in January.
On suggestion of Mr Goss. the rec
ommendation of the board of publ'e
works that the square on North Main
street at Bishop street be designated
as North square, was laid on the table,
pending action in reference to the- pro
posed change of name for a portion
cf Cherry street at that point.
' The recommendation of the board of
public works that Mayer Kilduff be
delegated to represent the city at tli.'
convention of the League of American
Municipalities in Charleston on Decem
ber 13. 14 and 15, was unanimously
adopted.
The recommendation of the board of
prblie works in reference to the grade
and layout of Pino street, from Hill
side avenue to Cooke street, was read
and referred to the bureau of assess
ment. Similar action was taken re
garding a lavout and grade for Grant
street and Branch street, two small
streets at Roger & Hamilton's, in the
north end.
The report of the bureau of assess
ment in reference to the lavout of the
Plank road was read and adopted.
The report of the board of finance
that live new policemen lie appointed
was laid over until the next meeting,
but Mr Goss was willing to have it
-. tl imnii fnvorablv then and there.
The recommendation of the board of
finance that bonds to the amount of
$-JliO.!00 be issued to meet lloatlng in
debtedness of the Center district was
tabled for a week. Chairman Hall
spoke in favor of this proposition and
stated that he knew of no better way
of meeting the debt than by bonding
the eitv. for at least one new school
will have to lie built every year. Mr
Cross believed that ir we issue bonds
a Pinking fund should be established
to meet, the bonds, according as they
matured. Mr Goss thought that if
this debt had been contracted h.v ex
ceeding appropriations, it was a ques
tion whether the city could be held
responsible for it. ' I have nothing to
suggest." said the alderman, "but it
milit be well to ask the city attorney
about it. I have a little curiosity my
self "
Mr Cross: ''If it were shown that
it had been contracted illegally could
the citv repudiate it?"
Mr Goss: "Not all. but it is but a
short time ago when we were called
upon to make an appropriation of
$n.(KK) that had already been expend
ed on the Washington school. I think
there should be some check on that
board. If the appropriation was ex
ceeded, as I understand, the board that.
allowed it should lie held responsible
for it. I understand that the bonds is
sued bv the Center school district a
short time ago were intended to meet
tills floating debt, as well as to meet
current expenses. I think we cugnt.
to- know a little more about tnis mat
ter."
THERE ARE SO MANY REASONS
WHY YOU SHOULD HAVE A
RANGE.
, In the first place, the iron used in
the construction throughout is only and
strictly the purest pig iron. Not an
ounce of old iron whatever goes into
it.
The perfect manner in which they
are fitted together by the most skiUed
labor makes them economical. f ew
repairs are ever needed for the Quaker
Ranges. '
Hie system of drafts and dampers
makes it possible for you to- start up
a hot fire or to check it indefinitely for
future .use. . a
Because it's a range to make you
feel proud of your kitchen.
Because we're making' very low
prices to the first thousand buyers of
Quaker, Ranges. . ' -
Will you be one of the first thousand
to take advantage of this opportunity?

rue report of the board of . public r
woiks in reference to the grade and
layout of Howard street was read, and
referred back to- the board, with in
structions to designate such laud as. is
to be taken for said purpose.
The report of the city attorney rt
gardifig the petition or John G. Luuuy
for abatement of city taxes amounting
to about $127 on list of 18!7 and on u
similar petition from Mrs Hannah Cass
for abatement of about $"U school tax
es was substantially as follows: That
Mr Lunny's taxes had been legally lev
ied and ought to be paid and that in
asmuch as Mr Cass has but a life in
terest in the property, which is heavily
mortgaged, he did not think that there
was enough there to pay the costs of
a suit. The report nvas accepted and
Mr Lunny given leave to withdraw and
the petition of Mr Cass granted. .The
report' of the board of finance in ref
erence to the building of a retaining
wall on Mill street, along the edge of
the Mad river, was laid on the table
until after the estimates have been
acted upon.
A communication was received from
Mayor Kilduff asking to be excused
from acting on the consolidation com
mittee. The request was granted and
John O'Neill appointed to till the va
cancy. Alderman Cross wanted to
know what the consolidation commit
tee was doing. He bad heard, he said
that the committee thought it would
be time enough to report back about
March 1. "But." he continued, "this
committee" should remember that the
bill is not going to Hartford out of
their bauds. If we don't get tint
bill in time to show it to the people
before sending it to the legislature it
won't pass, for the people on the out
side will tight it tooth and nail. I
don't know, but I heard it noised
around that the town money can be
used to oppose the measure. Mv
idea is to get the draft of the bill
from ihe committee and show it to
these people and see if we can come
to an understanding with them about
This nettled Attorney Kellogg, who
is a member of the committee, and lie
emerged from the ante-rocm in a light
ing attitude. He wanted to say a
few words, "in view of what had beeu
said," and he did it in a manner that
brought forth a graceful apology from
Mr ("loss. He said that while no for
mal meeting had been held, consider
able work bad been done on the draft,
and that it would lie ready and pre
sented to the board in time to give
them ample opportunity to discuss it
and make such changes as they saw
fit.' He emphasized' the statement that
there was no intention on the part of
the committee to ignore the aldermen
by sending the bill to Hartford with
out their knowledge. He also re
minded tlie board that this is a busy
time for the lawyers and that no at
torney could afford to neglect his of
fice practice and give the matter his
whole attention. Mr Kellogg said that
if given a show, the committee would
do its work and that if the aldermen
did not have confidence in the commit
tee it was their duty to discharge them
and appoint a new one.
Mr Cross said that perhaps his re
marks were a little too sham, but that
after listening to Mr Kellogg's re
marks lie was satisfied that the com
mittee was doing all right.
The clerk was instructed to publish
l notice regarding proposed state leg
slat ion for Waterbury at the next ses
sion of the general assembly.
Alderman Goss started in to make
a big tuss about the lailure to report.
of a committee appointed some time
go to prepare a draft of an ordinance
relating to abatements and was waxing
hot at it when he learned that the com
mittee was composed of himself and
the city attorney. He took the joke
all right, and after all had indulged
in a laugh. Air Goss said that if he
got squelched on that that there was
another matter he wanted to call at
tention to. He moved that the board ;
of public works be requested to report
a new name for the Plank road. The
motion was carried.
The estimates for 1901. as prepared
by the board of finance, were read
and ordered printed.
Tlie board adjourned for one week.
TRAVELING MEN'S SESSION.
Delegates from All Over the Country
Will Discuss the Mileage Book.
Chicago. Dec "4. Scores of delegates.
and members of the Northwestern
Traveling Men's association, residents
of tliis state and various parts of the
country, will attend the annual con
vention of the organization to be held
in this city December 27. All the
northwestern and north central states
of the Union will be represented at
the gathering, also New Jersey, Penn
sylvania and Massachusetts.
Probably the most important topic
for the delegates and travelers to dis
cuss will be the railroad mileage book.
The various passenger associations
have, it Is said, proposed that an In
crease of from "2.000 to 4.000 miles be
made before a rebate be allowed. The
travelers now receive their rebate
when a 2.000 mile book is used and
will not object to the increase to 4.000
mile?. AVith the present rate of 2.000
miles the traveler is paying a sum of
2 cents per mile after his rebate is
paid. The proposed increase of mile
age will make a longer time elaps? be
fore the traveler is entitled to a re
bate. .
