Great Excitement.

Weakly and Son have created an eI-
citement iu local merchantile circles by
the statement that they are selling off
their large stock of store goods. and
large stock Of shoes, at cost, and below
cost, with the object of retiring from
business. Now is the time to secure
bargains By calling at the Palace where
they are doing business.
The national tickets will both be in
the field by the time mid summer
comes around, and by that time the
county primary elections should be
held and tickets formed, for the local
campaign. If the primary elections are
not held before hay making large per
ceutage of the voters will be reluctant
about attending the primary election,
until after the wheat has been harvest

of Steck, at Robison's, TO secure his
clients property. Officer Funk had a
warran. which had been gotten out by
Steck, himself, at Port Royal, charging
Mrs. Steck with having uniawfully TAX
en- his property, and Mr. Stone accom-
panied the officer TO Robison's TO see
that the execution was properly made.
When Richason saw the officer aud law
yer coming be gave leg bail, and ran
away as fast as be could across the
fields and IN that way got himsel: out
of the case. Stone paid the 500
house rent and horse feed bill that Mrs.
Steck and Richason had incurred at
Robison's and then he aud Funk
brought the horse and buggy to town.
If officer Rollman and justice Beidler
we're shocked when they learned that
Steck had neither legs or arms, Stone,
upon returning to his Office was aston
ished upon the information that his cli-
ent had been put IN Jail. He visited
his client and in truly philosophical
way quieted the excitement OF his Gil
ept. and satisfied him that the cheape
and least exciting way was for him to
remain in Jail till properly released by
the law which could at most be, after
the lapse of few days, aud at the same
time he received an order from Steck
to sell the horse and buggy, which be
did, Sheriff Shivery becoming the pur'
chaser. He was also authorized BY

First Selectman Cyrus Cheney has been
quite sick for several days with pIeurisy.
The comfortable sold by ticket at the st.
Johns church oyster supper on Thursday
evening was drawn by Mrs. sMaltby Fowler.
AS on the previous evening, dancing was q
prominent feature of the entertainment until
o late hour.
Mr.. L. Button, former resident of North
Haven, has been in town on visit, looking
up his old friends. He finds the buildings
much changed and the heople more SO, very
few remaining of those he once knew. Mr.
Button is superintendent of the Button Fire
Engine works at Waterford, New York,
formerly under the firm name of L. Button
& Son, and for nearly 40 years has averaged
fifteen thousaud miles of travel in the inter-
est of the company. For many years he has
been elder of the Presbyterian church at
Waterford, and staunch advocate of the
cause of temperance, having signed the
pledge in 1929 and never violated it, Mr..
Button has in his possession silver watch
once the property of his grandfather, said by
some to be the first watch owned in North
Haven. 1t is of the make called the bulls
eye. The father of Mr.. Button lived in the
house now occupied by Mr.. Wales Bucking-
ham. Mr.. Button left on Friday morning
for Winchester, Va.
Last summer a swarm of bees entered the
house of j. W. Tuttls in the sixth district
and commenced operations under the floor
of the sitting room, much to the annoyance
of the family, and although various methods
were resorted to in order to drive them out,
the bees were victorious and kept the field.
Yesterday Mr.. s. F. Linsley was called in
and removed numerous portions of the floor,
clapbosrds, cellar wall &C., and succeeded in
obtaining several pounds Of nice honey. It
is estimated that if the work had been done
early in the season before the bees had
feasted on the honey through the winter.
there would have been twenty-five or thirty
pounds of the article in good condition.

Yesterday afternoon DR.. Dennen preached
from the 9th psalm, LIST verse-'The Lord
reicnetb: let the earth rejoice" He intro
duced his subject most happily by comparing
the recurrence of this thought again and
again throughout the psalms to the tones of
a sweet bell Two theories, said the preach
or, are prevalent with regard to the origin of
this world. One is the evolution theory that
everything is governed by blind, unfeeling
ibIe. The other is that We are governed by
being supremsly wise, absolutely powerful
and infinitely good David evidently held
the latter theory-"He is merciful
and gracious, long suffering and
abundant in goodness" DIR. Dennen
alluded to the fact that there was sense OF
aneasiness and uncertainty abroad. "The
times are out of joint" Nihilism, commun-
ism. socialism, like the destructive forces
in q volcano, are ready to burst forth at the
opportune moment. Destruction and the
overthrow of all government is boldly pro-
claimed. It may be admitted, however, that
all this dissatisfaction and threatenings are
not without some foundation, when monopo-
lies and corporations are so managed as to
squeeze out the largest profits and reduce
wages to the lowest minimum. 1t is
natural that human beings will assert
their rights. These men not only
pocket the wages of the poor, but they pocket
our Legislators. Not few of our Legislators
are members of these corporations. It is
only as the great principles of Christianity
are brought to bear on human governments
that there can be any real unity of feeling,
mutual concession, and consequent prosper
ity. 1t is simply justice to DR.. Dennen to
say that this is a very imperfect outline.
Gospel truth could not be presented in Ian
guage more appropriate or powerful.

about mile from the center of the town
His farm joins that of one johnson, his
brother-in-law. There has been a feud of
long standing between the two regarding
boundary lines. One morning last week
Farmer Curtiss went to his well and found
quantities of Paris green scattered in and
about the we'll, indicating that it had been
hurriedly dashed into it with the evident in
tent of poisoning the family. The town
authorities were notified and an investigation
is in progress. A clRirvoyant in this city

DIR. DenRem breaches Two Excellent
sermOns-The Duty of Attending to
Small Things and the Safety of the
Present Age.
DIR. Dement'S morning sermon yesterday
was upon the necessity of attending to the
little things the small duties. He said that
from our ewn habit Of constantly using su-
perlatives in speech we were in great meas
ure incompetent to judge of what is really
great. We are apt, too, to judge from ex-
ternals as to the real value of things and do
not think of their potencies and possibilities.
But broad, deep and slow-moving forces are
always hidden and unseen. We see the flow
ers and trees grow and the rays of sunlight
falling upon them, but we do not consider
that in the sunlight is the force that causes
the flower and tree to develop into their full
maturity. So events that are comparatively
small in themselves have tremendous effect
Il was a small matter for Hooker to refuse to
wear the Episcopal gown, but what conse-
quence that action had. Luther reached out
his hand and took down the Pope's bull; it
was slight movement, but the effects of 1t
have traversed the ages. God looks after the
small things. He watches for little develop
ments of character. Christ's whole ministry
was q web woven of innumerable small
items. Many of his little deeds touch us
more than his great miracles. Every great
character has been built up by additions of a
little here and little there We are apt to
long for great things. for great achievements
that shall attract the notice of the world
and forget small duties and graces. Such q
policy is wrong. Wait not for some grea.
occasion. Attend to the details of goodness
That is the way character is acquired.
Character may be lost by a SINH
lar neglect of details. Loss of chars
aster begins in the small things Tit
disciple does net sink into disrepute by
single step. He neglects private prayer,
he ceases to read the Bible, does some ques
tionable deed when he Is where others will
not see him and then lapses into state of
open wrong doing. Somewhere there is the
first small sin of omission or commission
Watch carefully these little things.

it has ever been the lot OF the writer to see

grain, ripe for the sickle, could be seen
stretching away in all directions, Of which
not stalk remained standing; garden growth
OF all kinds utterly destroyed; hardly pane
of glass was left in the village; the foliage
of the trees was so cut and mangled that the

length was entirely cleared of vegetation.
