Some Stray Leaves From A Reporter's
Note Book. ,
A colored gentleman, a resident of
Bishop street, says that people needn't
De in any hurry about getting ready
their cutters 1 his season, for he feels
satisfied that, there, will be mighty

more of t he white Hakes came down,
and this lie regards 'as an unfailing
"sign that there will be very little snow
this winter, though there may be lots
of cold weather. It snowed Thanks-,
giving morning, but it was all gone
- before night so that if there be any
thing in The colored gentleman's con
tention the boys and girls will not
nave many sieigmng parties miring
the present winter.
Some time ago Acting Medical Ex
aminer Graves spiked the bell on his
.office door and had an artist print the
words '"Walk In"' in large letters on
the plate glass, just a little above the
.lutauwii ii ine ut-n. mi n 1:1 eiui in
its old place although it refuses to
speak during the day time. Since the
change was made a reporter wanted
to see the physician at his office, and
being accustomed to the bell lie never
dreamed of looking at Hie new "Walk
, In" sign, but kept trying to compel
the instrument to perform its accus
tomed functions until the doctor open
ed the door and pointing to the sign
said. "Don't you see that':" apparently

reporter took ill the situation and re
plied in an apologetic tone "I can't
read, doctor." The tiling worked like
a charm and instantly the medical ex
aminer's face was wreathed in smiles.
,and the scribe was ushered to the soft
est couch in the waiting room where
the doctor imparteu to him such infor
mation as he desired in his usual good
natured way. Another proof in sup
port of the old adage. "A soft answer
turmjfh away -wrath."
, "I wanted io give you people a good
Item yesterday." said a clerk in one of
the stores to the As You Like If Man.
to-day, "and having an idea that the
office call was oo I rung up central
and was answered by ih.mi. which is no
other place than the police station, in
this fashion. "Oil. you're 1.0O0 miles
off." I tried if again and of course got
the same number and central being
alert, heard ine explain my predica
ment to tii.Ht. and sent this shot at me
over the wire: "Six hundred isn't the
Democrat!" 'Oh!' I replied, gently,
thinking the fair hello girl was coin
ing to my rescue: 'what is it. please?'
'Look in the book and see!' were the
woijds that came rushing into my ear.
I was a stranger to the few people
who happened to be in the office wliero
I sought to make connections with the
paper, and it being close onto press
hour and not caring to expose my ig
norance of the telephone directory. I
put back the trumpet on the hook and
walked away, satisfied that the hello
girl could have done no worse. It is
against the rules of the company for
operators to instruct people regarding
numbers, but I have a faint idea that
bunglers from abroad should be made
to feel that while the rules are rigid,
the operators are courteous, for it
makes a world of difference the way
one 13 informed of a mistake."
' . .
What a rebuke to the fathers of
this country to hear Balfour stanJ up
in the British house of commons and
justify the barbarous treatment the
Boers are being subjected to in S;jntli
Africa by quotations from the military
rules of the United States. There
was something significant in Tim
Healey's query to Balfour's renuirkson
ihis subject as well as in the reply
thereto, which was substantially as fol
lows: Healey: , "What date do these
regulations bear?" Balfour: "Thev
are dated 1S99." Mr Healey: "Aha.
They were'made to fit t lie ca.se. They
were framed after America got into
the same stew Kngl.and now finds'her
sell" in in South Africa."" No wonder the
radicals expressed amazement that
the American republic should have
sanctioned rules of war which virtual
ly deprive small nationalities of the
rights of belligerents. Judging
by the way the government is
being scored right at their own door
for their South African policy it would
seem that the Orange Free State and
Transvaal republics, who are battling
for their homes and their firesides,
have more friends in the house ;f
commons than in the congress of the
Vnltd States. The average English
man has a pretty keen conception of
right and wrong and were it not for
the power the aristocracy wiolds over

John Moriarty of the Waterbury
Furniture Co. was in a reminiscent
mood the other day and talked inter
estingly to a few citizens about his
old time friend and associate. Coil;
tractor Michael . Cady of New York"'
whose name has lieen mentioned so
frequently in the papers the past few
weeks in connection witli his big sewer
contract in Havana, involving some
thing in the neighborhood of 13.1MX.
I00. Cady and Moriarty worked to
gether when they were boys making
1 wo-cent bundles of wood in the Brook
lyn navy yard and although both- have
since traveled in - widely different
fields, still they have managed to keep
ill) an acquaintance and when they
meet they rarely ever part without
reverting to the time .when they work
ed in the navy yard putting up bundles
of wood such as are sold iu the stores
for the modest sum -. of two cents.
Moriarty's father, Eugene, an aforetime
Irish schoolmaster, . who could
talk Latin and Greek as readily as
English, was weigh master at the
navy yard for several years and Cady's
father was a carpenter at -the-same
place and the two youngsters used to
Take great delight rushing each other
at the business of bundling the wood
And. If one happened to be a trifle
ahead of the other at quitting time,
which was often the case, he invaria
bly madeufor-his dad to tell him alxntt
it. 'Twenty years' after this, . when
Cady and Moriarty were skilled -stone
cutters, they met as workmen, at the
. the post .office building in Ne.w Yqrk
And while there often indulged in a
chat over the time when they turned
Jionest pennies out of the wood busi
ness. The world has used both men
fairly well since the time of their boy
hood, but it is doubtful if.. either. c.ver
knew as happy moments as when he'
found himself a . - two-cent . . bundle
ahead of bis pompetitor In tiie 'Brook-

Talking Up a Gubernatorial .Candidate
".'" for 1 Situ:.. .. , ; s - v
... Chairman Thayer, of the. democratic
State central committee, was in New
Haven yesterday afternoon for the pur
pose of finishing iip the lmsiness of the J
last campaigu and consulting with lo
cal leaders Iii "regard" fo the" future of
tlie'jiarty in this state. 'He Had,-a long
conference with Judge Blydenburg,
who had the management of Judge
Bronson's campaign for the governor
ship. - Mr Thayer told a - Register re
porter that it hadn't, been decided
whether the party would establish per
manent headquarters In this state,- but
he was of the impression that no other
rooms 'would be engaged for. the pres
ent. He will remain at the head of the
committee arid. will be accessible at all
times at Norwich, It was learned
from another source-that Judge Bron
son's candidacy two years hence was
discussed bv Chairman - Thayer and
others. It is said that Judge Bron
scn is inclined to permit' the use of his
name in the gubernatorial race again,
but hasn't - definitely decided, . Some
of the leaders hope he will stand again
and give an early decision on the mat
ter, that the campaign for the elec
tion in 1H02 may be got under way
comparatively early. tt is thought
that such 'early 'action is advisable as
Hie republicans practically start on a
new campaigu as .soon as the old is
finished.

An important step toward the build
ing of a new trans-continental railroad
line was taken .to-day in the presenta
tion to the attorney-general of Texas
for approval of the charter of the Chi
cago, Rock Island and Mexico Rail
road company, which road is to be a

ater for the remainder o'f the evening.
. - A CONVERTED' TRAMP. ,
On Sunday night at. 8 o'clock at the
Salvation army hall in the rink a con
verted tramp will lead the meeting.
The Individual in question has trav
eled thousands- of miles and passed
through about two-thirds of the states
in the Union, on one occasion making
a trip from Chicago to Southern Cali
fornia without the formality of pay
ing fare. While not being exactly able
to be classed among tlie "tales of ex
tanks" yet his experience'-.' will no
doubt be full of interest .and oil are
welcome to hear the same. "As be is
nt present Hying in Waterbury, for
obvious reasons his name is not men
tioned here, but for the good of the
work, lie has ' consented to relate in
public some of his past experience.

POLICE COURT DOINGS
Michael Kennedy Fined for Theft of a
''' . '" 'i' 'Carriage Robe,. .: .
, , Michael Kmuedv w.ts before' the"Vlt y
court, to-day !vhargedMwith i-oinpllcitv
in. the crime of theft, of acarrluge robe,
for which , his brother James was- lined
?7 aiid costs yesterday and sentenced
to thirty days in jail. The owner or
the property, John L. Saxe, testified
in tbe same strain as he did yesterday,
that. he threw the robe ;over'hls horse
while, he was in Ids house on Clay
street for a few minutes, and when he
came out the robe was gone. Later
Detective Caliey saw tlie accused .and
his brother with the robe in their pos
session on Chatfield avenue. Kennedy
insisted that he was. Innocent and
called upon James Corr. his friend, to
bear him out. but Corr declined to say
anything and Kennedy was given the
panie sentence as his brother got, $7
and costs and thirty days in jail.
Frank McMorrow was charged with
intoxication and disorderly conduct,
and Mrs Margaret Lynch was charged
with intoxication also. Both were ar
rested together. Officer Noouan testi
fied that last evening he was given in
formation to the effect that his pres
ence was necessary in tlie woman's
apartments. AVheti he went there the
place was enveloped in darkness and
this, combined with his hearing noises
inside, convinced him that his informant-was
not misinformed. A few min
utes later McMorrow tried to get out
of tlie place. A light was struck and
a- most miserable picture was revealed.
Want and negligence was apparent and
two small children were sitting and
shivering on tlie lino;-. .There was no
lire in the stove and the stove-pipe was
disconnected. Mrs Lynch v.'iis intox
icated ami unable to do anything. The
neighbors down stairs took the children
for the night and a search was made
for- the others that were playing on
the street.
The court was in a quandary what
to do. The last time the woman was
in court litr relatives promised to take
the children, and as one of them is a
baby in arms it would not do to send
the woman to prison. .The court com
promised by sentencing her to thirty
days in the almshouse, and if thfc'chil
dren are not taken care of meanwhile
they will lie handed over to soiih in
stitution. Selevtman Dovau said the
woman's relatives would takp them.
