To the Editor:

I think it my duty to inform
your readers of a remedy that
should be in every household.

I was a martyr to Dyspepsia
and Constipation and tried
everything in vain. In despair I
bought a ten cent package of the
U. S. Army & Navy Tablets, 17

East 14th St.,. New York, and
in three days I felt better and

afterwards I bought a twenty-
five cent package and now I am
completely cured. . Your druggist
can and must get it for you.
Yours truly,
A READER.

Mayor Glover called an adjourned

Wednesday night with all the mem-

bers present.
The clerk’s report was read and ap-

’ proved.

Bills to the amount of $1,774.64 dis-
tributed among the departments as fol-
lows were read and ordered paid:

Administrative, $525.30.

Library, 116.34.
Police, 157.00.
Fire, 165.16. .
Highway, 158.40.

Sewer, 84.20.

Mayor Glover then referred to the
bills rendered ' by the Connecticut
Lighting and Power company to the
city for lights in the Town House and
at the city polls on election day. He
said he thought these were properly
town bills. The matter was referred
to the committee on lights.

Councilman Meeker of the highway
committee recommended that the coun-
cil accept Lincoln avenue from the
eastern end to the newly-named Mon-
roe street. ‘

Water commissioner Hyatt being
present, the Mayor solicited informa-
tion in regard to the propoSed accept-
ance of Lincoln avenue. Mr. Hyatt
said that he had been interviewed up-
on the subject but nothing in the way
of water improvements could be made
until it was accepted by the city. Mr.
Hyatt could give no estimate of the
cost of furnishing water.

The matter was discussed at length
by the councilmen and finally put to a
vote. It was carried, there being five
yeas and one nay.

Goold Hoyt brought up the matter
of selecting a policeman to fill the va-
cancy occurring on the resignation of
Capt. Wallace E. Dann. _.

He read the names of the applicants
and moved an informal ballot be taken.

The applicants were:

Thomas Hunt, John H. Valieant,
John H. Gormley, Gilbert Seymour,
A. D. Parker and Summerfield Tooker.

On the informal ballot Valieant re-
ceived3 votes, Hunt 2 and Horton 1. A
formal ballot was then taken with the
result that Hunt received 4 ballots and
Valieant 2. Hunt was declared elected.

Mrs. Mira Meader petitioned for
permission to move a frame house from
a point on Harbor avenue to 104 Har-
bor avenue. The petition was granted.

The police report showed eight are
rests during the month, 2 for assault, 5
for drunkenness and 1 for insanity.

The matter of the salary due to the
estate of the late Councilman W. N.
Simons was brought up. Councilman
Hoyt moved that $20 be paid to the
estate, which was voted.

The council then adjourned to Octo-

ber 16th.

HDMESIIAIIBUHNEIJ.

The Miller homestead in Redding
Center, owned by County Commission-
er James E. Miller. was totally de-
stroyed by fire late Tuesday night.
The loss is about $2,500 and the insur-
ance $1,600. The cause of the fire is
not known but it is believed to have
started in the kitchen.

Commissioner Miller has not lived in
the old homestead for some time. Dur-
ing the past two years he has made his

 

- home in Danbury, although he still

keeps his legal residence in the cld
town. Since he removed to Danbury
the homestead and the fine farm that
goes with it have been in charge of a
keeper.

Tuesday evening the keeper, who
sleeps in the house, retired about the
usual hour. About ten o’clock he was
aroused by the crackling of the flames
and the smell of smoke.

Hastily dressing himself he ran
down stairs and found the fire in the
rear, burning fiercely. It appeared
to have started in a small addition
which was used as a kitchen.

The keeper aroused the neighbors
and an efiort was made to get some of
the things out of the house. but it
was not of much use to try as the
flames spred rapidly and soon drove
the men out. ‘

There is absolutely nothing at Red
ding Centre to fight fire and the neigh-
bors could only stand around and
watch the flames eat up the building
and its contents.

There are three large barns not far
from the house and when the blaze
was the brightest it was feared that
they might go too. Fortunately the
wind was not in the direction of the
barns. Had it been, nothing could
have saved them and the loss would
have been tripled. I

Commissioner Miller was informed
of the fire by telephone and he drove
down to the center in a carriage as
fast as his best horse could take him.
But there was nothing for him to do
and he arrived only to see the home of
his childhood go up- in smoke. and
ashes.

The old homestead was not of any
great value other than for its associa-
tions. It has been in the Miller family
for over half a century and Mr. Miller
has owned it for many years. In its
destruction the commissioner feels as
though he has lost an old friend. His
many friends in this city will sym-
pathize with him in his loss.

.THE DAN BU RY FAIR.

An Exciting Incident in a Perilous Adventure
of an Aeronaut.

 

 

 

An exciting incident of Wednesday
at the Danbury Fair was the perilous
adventure of a female aeronaut, who is
making parachute jumps. At3 O’clock
Miss Laura Hashrook made a balloon
ascension from the fair grounds. The
balloon rose to an immense height.
Miss Hashrook was unable to free the
parachute from the big bag and was
compelled to ride out the flight of the
balloon which ascended far above the
height which hot air balloons common-
ly reach. The spectators were firmly
convinced that the daring young wo-
man would lose her life.

The balloon floated over the city toa
point four miles from the fair grounds
before it settled to the earth. It landed
in a tree and Miss Hashrook was taken
from its branches none the worse for
her misadventure save for the result of
the nervous strain. She will make an-
other ascension to-day.

A man snatched a pocketbook from
Mss. Mary Foster, of Somers, N. Y.,
on the fair grounds and bolted, pur-
sued by a great crowd. He was caught
on the grounds and arrested after giv-
ing the'*ofiiccrs as good a fight as he
was capable of, which was a pretty
good one. He said he was William
Malcolm, of Macon, Ga.

The fields in the racing events were
large and the sport fairly good.
