CHIEF EGAN AGAIN.
Got His Bumps From Christian En
deavorers Last Night.
Chief Bgan was denounced, Sunday
ball playing wa condemned and a
general attack was made up "on the
desecration of the Sabbath day at the
annual mass meeting . and convention
of the - Waterbury Christian Endeavor
union, which was held In the, Second
Congregational church iast night! The
ivosltion of H. M. Scott, superintendent
of the Sunday school at the Bunker
Hill chapel, who is being sued ' by.
Ceorge Knapp for alleged! slanderous
remarks in regard, to Knapp's saloon
at the Driving park, was endorsed, and
confidence was expressed in the truth
and Integrity of his statements.
Last night's meeting was one of the
most Interesting and inxportant held
by the local Christian Endeavor union
in a long time. Ten of the fourteen
churches in the union were 'represent
ed. The churches represented were
the First Congregational, Second Con
gregational, First Methodist, First Bap
tist, Second Baptist and the A. M. E.
Zion of this city, the Watertown Con
gregational, the Middlebnry Congrega
tional, the Union City Baptist and the
Oakville Congregational.
Tha fniifywinc set nf resolutions de
nouncing Sunday base ball was read
and adopted:
Resolved, First, that as repreSenta-i-poa
nt tli "Vrtnnff Prfwnla's societies of
Christian Endeavor of the city of Wa:
twhnTv in convention assembled we
do pledge our unequivocal support to
every movement making here and else
where for the better observance and
more rigid enforcement of laws
designed for tne protection or tne puu
lic peace on the Sabbath day, and that
we are aetermmea ny gopa ewmiiiB
rtA nlons Admonition to use our influ
ence as individuals to encourage in the
public mind a reverence ror mat tmy
which has from the beginning been
deemed a sacred heritage to Protes
tants In America.
Resolved, Second, that we particu
Inrlir evrvress our indorsement of the
nroAB mnrla hv th citizens Of the
city who live near and adjacent to tue
Driving park against tne piaymg oi
base ball on ' Sunday, on: property
owned by the city. . That we believe
Hiifli rmrnes are a menace to the public
peace, that they disturb public worship
and turn tne day set apart uy iaw n
rest into dissipation, wantonness and
tumult. . - '
Resolved. Third, , that this conven
tion through these resolutions petition
tiio Vionrr? nt rnb1ir safetv to vleilantly
enforce the statutes safeguarding the
public vpeace on Sunday, assuring the
board of our unqualified sympathy and
support. ,.
Resolved, Fotirth, that we do now
nsure our brother, H. M. Scott, of our
confidence .In the; integrity of his state
ments recently made before the city
officials in ; which he bore testimony
against open and flagrant violations of
law, and that we call upon all friends
of good order to sustain him against
the effort of law breakers to intimi
date nd embarrass .him. .
Resolved, Fifth, that a copy of these
resolutions be given to each of the city
papers for publication, that a copy of
the first. Second and third be presented
to the board of public safety, and that
they be spi-ead on our minutes; and
that the pastors whose churches are
represented In the Waterbury Christian
Endeavor4 union , be requested to read
them to their congregations on the
coming Sabbath.
The resolutions were read by E. H.
Thomas. The Rev Oscar Haywood
spoke in favor f their adoption. He
was emphatic in hlg protest against the
desecration of the Sabbath day and
said "the time has come for some one
to take a decided stand In this matter,
and as'thls Is, the only representative
church gathering held in this clty.'it IS
right and proper that these resolutions
should be presented and adopted here.
I do not wish to encroach upon the per
sonal liberties of any memberi of this
community, and the persons who wisn
to play ball on Sunday have a right to
do so, providing they do not interfere
with or encroach upon the personal lib
erties of any otuer person; but this and
more they do do, when the street cars
going to and from the places where
they play are-,loaded with : drunken
men, making it unsafe" for a respecta
ble woman to be out, and the day
turned into a day of tumult, and dissi
pation instead of a holy day of rest."
The speech of the Rev Mr Brooks of
Simonsville was' of a-more sensational
nature. Chief Egan was the object of
his attack, for he looks upon the chief-of-poliee
as the primary cause' of Sun
day being desecrated by the playing of
base ball. In the opinion, of the rev
erend divine the present chief must be
removed before the good law abiding
citizens can hope for anything better
in regard to the. enforcement Of the
laws against Sunday base ball. 'Mr
Brookg said: , "Everybody knows- who
is responsible for the present condition
of affairs. It is the present chief -of-police,
and I would like to tell him so
to his face, and if there is a reporter
present I hope he will quote me as say
ing so. There will never be a change
for the better until -we oust him from
his; job. I would like an amendment to
that effect." .Though his remarks were
.received with applause,- Mr Brooks's
amendment .was not adopted.
- An offeVtory was rendered by, A. .T.
Blakesley and "Onward Christian Solr
cllers" was sung ;by the congregation.
The RevAllyn H. Foster of Cornwall
delivered an, eloquent address on "Faith
in Christ'',' and "Personal Conduct."

WATERTOWN JOTTINGS
More Light Needed On Our Dark
Streets Every Night.
The traveling about town is anything
but pleasant just at present, owing to
tne torn up condition of the highways.
In spite of all these necessary 'condi
tions more lanterns should be placed
just north of the brick store, or some
one will have a suit for damages on
their hands. ' '; ' '

der the management of J. M. Kielty,
will open the season at Naugatuck on

counts Vwlll be a fast one. An out of
town pitcher will be secureu.
Young Hinman has secured a posi
tion at Kielty's grocery store.
Many complaints are heard daily
concerning the tri-weekly entrance oi
a beer wagon into town. That a beer
wagon enters the town each week is
known to almost, everyone, but anyone
who. wishes to do any downright hard
kicking should see the proper authori
ties Instead of to those who are getting
the beer. . -". ; .
Friday evening of this week the
third of the series of dances given l y
the Watertown fire department wn.
take place at the town hall. These
dances have been popular from the
start and the management look for a
continuation of the liberal patronage
given them by the public both here
Land also by the people of Oakville.
I Gymnasium drills have formed a
good hare of the fun In the meetings
of the Knights of King Arthur, Win
nemaug Castle, and now these have
been' worked up for several weeks
with reference to an entertainment
which "will be given next Tuesday
evening In the town: hall. The Knights
will be assisted by the Young Men's
club of the Methodist church, who have
kindly" consented to , render some of
their glee club muaic. The boys take
v- this work with enthusiasm, since If
they succeed they can go off on a
camping trip this summer. ;
oakville Happenings
For the last few weeks the weather
has been exceptionally favorable for
all vegetation. The country,, which
only a short time ago,' appeared lonely
and bare, is becoming rapidly clad in
all the beauties of spring. Every
where now there is music in ' the air
pleasing to the ear, beautiful flowers at
each step gratifying to the eye, and an
indescribable appearance in all nature
capable of filling, the most delicate
soul with delight. The birds seem
more happy and tame because they
can easily hide themselves and their
nests in the leafy trees and their vari
ed colors more beautifully tinged for
being surrounded with blossoms. But
to all this only the poet can do justice,
and therefore we wish to make only a
short reference to it.
