MISSIONARY DAY.-Sunday morning
opened bright and clear, in beautiful con,

members and attendants on the NJ. E.

OF the day in his usual easy manner, ad-
dressing the congregations morning and

The old adage that the course of true
love ne'er runs smooth was exempliiied

Pectant bride had turned over TO the
OBJECT OF her affection the sum of $3.50
with which he was to purchase a mercan-
tile Quilt; Upon arriving at Clayton the
would-be groom told his fair one that il
was necessary for him to go to Smyrna ON
business and that he would take the next
train for Philadelphia and arrive there in
time to be married in the evening. The
gulleless maiden drank in his fair promi-
ses and continued upon her Journey all
unconscious OF the dark clouds that were
overshadowing her matrimonial dreams
Inc shades of night came on apace. The

SMALL POX.-The middle of last week
our community was considerably disturb
ed Oy the announcement of several eases
OF smallpox, among the cOlorcd popula-
tlon III the outer limits of the town. The
Board OF Health took the matter in hand
at once by isolating the families as far as
possible, and employing a messenger to
keep them supplied with all nCcessaries.
A yellow flag was also ordered TO be
piaced wherever there was cUntagion. As
IN additional security, the town was divi-
dea INTO 1lVe districts and physician ap-
pointed TO each to see that every Derson
should be Vaccinated-thosc not able ot
the expense of the town. The yaccinn-
ton has, however been mostly voluntary
ana SO thorough that Smallpox can find
very few subjects in our town. At the
best 1T can Onl Y take the form of Nariol0id
Circulars were also issued giving informa-
ton III regard to the disease and the
proper sanitary measures to meet and
counteract it. This prompt action of the
Board of Health is justified by the result
\ week has elapsed without the deyelop-
ment OF any new cases, and the four las
before stated i'll the outskirts Of the town
are rapidly cOnvalescing. The scare has
suDslded. We understand that very cx-
agerated reports are in circulation in
other PLACES in regard to the SmaII-pox in
TINS town. The above is true state Of
the iactS as they are. Our citizens move
around without any feeling of fear, as the
cases, with one exception we believe Va
rloloidl are strictly quarentined and the
desease will doubtless soon be extinct

At Calvary Baptist church Sunday the pas
tor, Rev. Mr.. Samson, at the close of the
morning sermon asked his people to free the
church from debt in time for the rededica-
ton services to be held in a fortnight. 1t
was necessary that Sc, 900 be raised and he
proposed that the church committee pass
through the congregation and secure sub
scriptions. The subscriptions began to pour
in and were announced in sums of s., $40,
800 and $25. The audience began to be
excited with feeling of lberality. Large
sums were put down and fifties and
hundreds were added to the list. When one
lady swelled the list with 81, 900 subscrip-
ton she was quickly followed by another
lady who gave $500. The audience was
pleased and enthusiastic. In ten minutes the
sum of $5,800-only 5000 less than the re-
quired sum-was raised. The balance will
undoubtedly be raised without any difficulty
before the time of rededication.
When s., 500 had been subscribed there
was little lull Mr.. Samson made another
appeal and $500 more were given, making the
total as stated above

About Horses.
The oldest horse in Litchfeld county, per-
haps, is that owned by z. Winton, of Hotoh-
kissville. The animal has reached the ma
ture age of 80 years. and is in the harness
about every day.
A horse fell dead very suddenly in front of
the Temple of Fashion on South Main street,
Waterbury, Saturday evening, probably from
heart disease. The animal was owned by
Henry L. Durand, was something of trot-
ter and was valued at about $3.50. Five min
utes before the horse fell dead Mr. Durand
had not the least idea that there was any
thing the matter with it,
Milo Holabird, of South Canaan, lost q
valuable horse recently by strange acci-
dent. The horse was turned loose into lot
and in his frolic ran against the limb of a
cherry tree and dropped down dead. 1t is
supposed that he must have broken his neck,
as be gave no signs of life after he fell.

Sullivan Anxious to Spar Allen.
New YORK, Nov. 27.-About two thousand
persons attended the sparring exhibition
given in Madison Square Garden toll night by
Tom Allen, the ex-champion of America,
After a number of set-tos had taken place
Allen and George Rookie mounted the stage
in full ring costume to wind up, but before
they could put up their hands John L. Sulli-
van amid the cheers of the spectators mount
ed the stage and as soon as order could be
restored said 81 came here night to spar
Mr.. Allen, but find that cannot have the
opportunity as the police have decided not to
allow any more knocking out in New York.
[ wanted the opportunity of sparring with
one or two more champions before 1 retired
and 1 am sorry I have not the chance"
Allen in response said he had not made any
offer to spar Sullivan, if he had he would
have made it good. The wind up then took
place between Allen and Rookie and resulted
in one of the tamest exhibitions ever wit
messed in this city.
