lug Thomas I. Raymond moved the
adoption of the resolution of the Corn-

stated above.
Councilmen Hallock stated that the
time had arrived to do something for the
betterment of the streets of South Nur~

thatanexpresslou of the people in the
matter might be had.~
Wm. B. Rider. having given the mat-
ter of macadamiaing and paving special
study, gave his opinion as to the best
roads, stating that the soil and climate
were important factors in doing such

down unanimously and the following
resolution cfiered by Nelson Taylor was
adopted:

Damage to a Doubt.
A. P. French, assistant to Dentist 0.8.
Watrous of Middletown, was injured
yesterday by the explosion of a vulcan»
izer used in the preparation of india rub-
ber for the dental plates. A plumber
had been in the room early in the morn-
ing and was making an examination of
the pipes to find a p leak. The gas
was turned on in order that he could
make a test and as shutting it off was
forgotten, and the safety valve was shut.
the vulcanizer went to atoms. Dr. French
stood directly in front of the vulcaniser
when it exploded, and a piece of flying
debris struck him just above the hip on
his right side. The force knocked him
to the door, and after be was carried to
the adjoining room it was some time be-
fore be came to. The explosion was of
sufficient force to knock out several win-
dow lights and a portion of a board par-
tition separating the room from another
room. The injured man will be con-
fined to his bed for some days.

influential and rapvmsatstlvsnswspsp-
srshavssgood word for Building and
Loan Annotation; taking pains to con»
mead them to the people and giving res-
scus-fcrtha faith they have in thsm.
These items and rslaraucsa have had an
educative influence, and kindled in In-
telsat in an institution which armed to
be beneficial to working people.
For example, the Boston Herald said:
"The cooperative banks, sometimes
called building associations, although
they never hulld directly, are the very.
ingenious outgrowth of an endeavor to
make the ssviugsof meant moderate
msausyisldsblghsrrsteof lstsrsst
than savings banks pay, and also to dis.
tribute thus savings in small loans
among the rains clam. They have prov-
ad eminently mfe and successful in both
respects. But bere,slso, the borrower
must haves 'msrgln,‘ albeit a smaller
one will pass than in the savings banks.
This is no indication of security, for the
loan iaat its maximum and the ‘rnargiu'
at its minimum only at theoutsst, for
the monthly payments immediame and
constantly increase the latter and de-
crease the former.”
Moreover, for several months I have
bscnarsader of the Public Ledger of
Philadelphia. published by George W.
Childs. A feature of that model paper
is a weekly report of the doings of vari-
ous Building and Loan Associations.
One of its long columns is devoted every
week to this department of human eu-
deavor; and thé pros and cons are dis-
cussed in an ingenious and masterly
manner. I have glanced over these
items and discussions; and the more I
read the greater my interest, and I soon
discovered that the Public Ledger is a
warm friend and believer in wisely mau-
sged building associations. Now, the
Public Ledger means George W. Childs,
and the name of George W. Childs has
become a synonym for one of the wisest
and kindest friends of working people.
While beta the host and companion of
the most eminent people in the world-
welcomed equally in the drawing-mums
of the great sud prosperous at home and
of the nobility abroad—nevertheless his
heart is with the toiling masses of his
fellow men. He studies their interest
and the amelioration of their hardships:
and be devotes his great fortune to their
welfare. A short time ago the home of
one of his employeson the Public [edger
was destroyed by fire. llr. Cb ilds sent
for his unfortunate friend; told him to
rebuild and furnish it as it was before,
and he would pay the bill. And in this
brotherly manner he deals with all his
employee from the highest to the lowest.
Knowing that such a man is the advo-
cate of building associations is a strong
argument in their favor.
Another fact has led me to study the
matter. My associations are mostly with
those who labor and are heavy laden.
They are poor; and some of them are
poor as they were fifteen and twenty
years ago. Rent is their greatest burr
den. The landlord seems to them like a
taskmsater. They are no nearer having
shome than they were years ago—in
fact, as trade is dull, and they are grow-
ing older, they are farther away from
owning a home. And yet, during the
time I have been acquainted with them,
they have expended for the rent of a fist
or shabby tenement enough money to
have paid for a lot, and a cosy home
with all modern improvements. And
when I have examined the dreary facts
and the darkening outlook, I have won-N
dered whether this long lane had no
turning—whether there was no feasible
way for self help. I know that
God had given room enough for every
man to haves piece of land. I asked
whether man wasn't wise and fraternal
enough to devise some easy plan whereby
his brother, however poor and unfortun-
ate, could secure a home of his own; and
putting my boyhood experience together
with my later reading and observations.
I concluded .l found a solution of the
vexed problem in well managed building
associations.
Now the young man knows that he
can quickly and easily procure a home,
and the young woman is more than
resdytoaidhimif sogood ahcusecsn
be placed at her disposal for so little
money. She can even buy and own the
house herself independently of her hus-
band, and both can combine and emct
and own their own roof-tree, that shall
also be their children's home, and the as-
sured shelter for their declining years.
No dreadful boarding house stares them
in the face, and with resaousblscareand
industry they can put away the fear of
the poor house or the asylum forever.

A GOOD BEGINNING.
The city meeting last night tomcaidsr
tbs mattsr of paving scale of the princi-
palstrsrn developed the fact that the
people are fully alive to the uscssslty of
such an improvement and disposed to
make it ssaoonss the best method
ascertained. '
From what was stated last evening it
would appmr that a good McAdam
pavement would best serve the needs of
this city and make the most pleasant
mods.
The committee appointed to investi-
gate the matter is s most excellent one:
and when they report undoubtedly will

Ila Soto [In to Two Moro Buildings.
A few minutes after seven last night a
single stroke of the fire alarm bell start.
led the citizens of Dsnbury.
The alarm had been struck from box
7, corner of Comatock street and Pub-
quoique avenue, and the fire was located
in the old Dsnbury and Norwalk our
shops. It was extinguished before the
department arrived. The fire was dis-
covered by three boys named Charles
Moore, James Rough and Fred Beigler.
They informed Ofilcer Crotty. and while
he was giving the alarm. Switchmen
Murray and Beyers ran to the rear of
the shop. They found the flames run-
ning up between the inner and outer
walls, and the boards were turn of! and
the fire extinguished with a few pails of
water.
An investigation brought to light a
bunch of oily waste which had been
shoved in through a large rat hole near
the ground and ignited. The damage
was very slight. An inquiry was im—
mediately set afioat, and Chief Meyers
ordered the three boys who discovered
the fire detained. They were taken to
the police station by Ofiicer Bette. Then
John Brennan pointed out William Flit-
craft as a man he had seen coming out
of the building before the fire was dis-
covered. Assistant Chief Filzsimmous
ordered his arrest, and Fire Policemen
Treadwell and Scott took him into cus—
lady.
The excitement coobd down for a
while, but just two home afterwards,
while the fire committee were meeting
in the city hall and were talking over the
fire, the alarm sounded again; this time
from box 27, near the New England de-
pot, which has been used so frequently
of late.
George Stutt, who lives on Wildmau
street and always uses the short out
along the track to come to the center,
was passing the New England freight
depot when he saw a blaze under it and
burninlr drops of oil falling from the
floor. He hastened to the signal box and
gave the alarm, and operator Delaney
ands friend ran to the scene. They
found a bunch of burning waste
between the floor rafters, supported on a
beam, and poked it out. The depart-
ment had arrived by this time and Hor-
atio Brown. of the truck company, ran
into the building. They found the flames
coming up through the floor and already
licking the sides of the two barrels of
kerosene oil which were directly over
the place where the waste was placed.
It was the work of a moment to roll the
bowls away and extinguish the flames.
As at the other fire there was not the
slightest clue to the perpetrator of the
crime.
The damage at the depot is slight; but
had the fire been undiscovered for five
minutes more. nothing could have saved Wood
that whole section as the oil barrel!
would have blown up and spresd a river
of flames through the big building. All
around are wooden buildings, Wilcox
elevator, ice houses, the New England
passenger depot and hundreds of loaded
freight cars and nothing could have
saved them. There is not an unusual
amount of infiamable material in the
freight house and the person who light-
ed the fire without doubt knew of the
oilbeing there and picked out the best
spot to start the fire. ~
The damage in either place is fortu-
nately only nominal; but had the fires
been started at midnight, there is no
telling what the loss might have been.
