1t Looks like Patent-Right swinslle.

During the past week much interest has been manifested in the case of the state against Kendrick and Thompson, T T Kendrick of Washington, D c, and Frank Thompson of Colebrook, came to this place July and by persuasive. talking induced one of our citizens to invest in a "patent invalid attachment for bedsteads of which they had model on exhibition. Other parties in Colebrook and Winsted were also in- duced to purchase among them an ex- representative of Colebrook and man of more than ordinary ability.
 The attachment was highly recom- mended by several parties among them Dr H Steele of Winsted and is undoubt- ly useful article.
 The notes given as payment for the attachment did not comply with stat ue passed in 1877, therefore the parties taking them laid themselves liable to Imprisonment not over five years. All the acts of the parties after procuring the notes tends to show that fraud was intended as they promised to extend the notes if at their maturity sufficient money had not been made out of the business to pay them, but immediately upon receiving them they procured the money on them of private parties in Winsted whom they allowed large discount. Those parties had them cash ed at the bank dollar for dollar.
 Kendrick and Thompson were brought before Justice Bennett July IA and by consent of the counsel the hearing was adjourned to July 23, the prisoners to furnish bonds to the amount of $500O The prisoners remained in the hands of Sheriff Van Deusen until Monday morn ing when the case was settled and with drawn. The defendant or defendants gave up all the notes and paid all the costs. A T Roraback appeared for the prosecution, B Hardenbergh for the defense.

Alnsley Scott'a jubilee Singers. COM
prise the very best travelling conabina
ton that has ever visited this section.
Their entertainments on "Wednesday
and Thursday evenings drew crowded
houses and vast audiences went home
delighted, feeling that they had re-
ceived much more than their money S
worth in the way of amusement and
entertainments Where all did so well,
it would be manifestly out Of order to
draw comparisons. To our northern
noiehhors we would say, if you can APP
preciate real good show, such as sell
dom travels, do not fail to patronize
the Jubilee Singers and you will surely
get value received. The program pre-
sented by this excellent company is en-
tirely new, refined and of the highest
order, the vocal and instrumental mn-
sic being of high standard. The
choruses were rendered in q manner
which shows much practice and high
order of ability, while the funny bust
ness is enough to break man all UP
Mr.. Scott not only deserves praise, but
the laost liberal patronage for his efforts
to please the public. The Brass Band
is notable feature and deserves great
praise.

THAT GROUSE EuET-A reporter
of this paper interviewed Jones, of
mineral water fame, and he (Jones)
does not deny that he went hunting
without ammunition, buo says when he
made the discovery his feelings must
have been akin to those of Mr. Conn
(the athlete) when he first drank the
mineral water. During last summer
and before Conn had sold his wool, he
went to the spring, and after drinking
of the water for the first time he said
everything seemed to look brighter, and
1t appeared to him that about dozen
wool buyers were standing around bid
ding on his wool. By the time they
had run it up to 40 cents per pound,
the mirage vanished and those wool
buyers went from his gaze, like beau
tiful dream, and Conn looked upon his
ulsold wool with about the same feel
ings that Jones did upoh his empty
$50 gun. We suppose this accounts
for The imputation in his item that
there Is some witchery about the spring.
The effects Of the water are truly won
derful and we would advise all athletes
to avoid wrestling with patients who
have been drinking it.
