SEYMOUR.

Quite considerable deal of factorizing was done last week, in the interest of Jo- seph Reigel, so he might collect pay in this way for beer bills. If men are foolish as to contract such bills they should be willing to pay the same. By the way, it is said part of these bills are for beer sold on Sunday.
 As the new tower to the plush mill ap- breaches completion it makes quite an or nament to the same, and with an electric clock in place where all can see the time, both night and day, it will, no doubt, be highly appreciated.
 The first annual ball of the K of l.. is to be given this evening, and judging from the number of tickets reported sold, here and in other places, 1t will be a success fi- nancially, and we hope it will be enjoyed by all who attend.

 Chas. H. Litchman of Marblehead, Mass is to speak in Nichols Hall, on We'd nesday evening, Dec. 23. MT. Litchman is a very able speaker, and an old veteran in the labor cause.

 The National Leaguers are to have a speaker in Nichols Hall, Sunday night Let every friend of the Irish cause be present.
 The Birmingham Minstrel and Speciality Go. is to give an entertainment at the Gem Opera House Monday evening, Dec. 21. This company is composed principally of Birmingham talent, though they have en- gagged two or three professionals te travel with them. The entire proceeds of the en- tertainment above expenses, is to go to the striking silver workers of Shelton. The company have engagements for all this week and part of next, and all except ono of the fourteen members serve without pay We trust that every member of the K, of l.. will turn out to this play, and take as many of their friends as possible Naugatuck is never behind in a work of this kind, and we are confident that the company will play to full house.
 Mr. Beardsley of Bridgeport, who sup plies the Naugatuck valley with papers each Sunday twas waited upon by the boy colt committee of the K. of l.. of this place a week ago last Sunday. He agreed to comply with their request by disseminating the sale of the Tribune in Naugatuck. Last week, however, statement was pub l lished in several of the state papers that Beardsley had said, that he informed the | committe that he would continue the sale of the Tribune in Naugatuck, and that he insinuated that the committee could not I read the Tribune any other paper. Beardsley was called upon again last Mon | day and asked to retract this statement, there will be trouble in this valley in the near future. The K. of l.. all up and down | the valley will cooperate with those in l Naugatuck in learning this fellow what many others have already learned to their cost. The boycott committee are as capa- ble of reading the Tribune as MT. Beardsley is, and if he had been in reach of them when they first saw the paper containing his statement he would have probably thought they could read. Some complain that we are carrying the thing too far, and say that he has a "right" to sell the Irib- une if he wants to. Of course he has, and we have the same fright" to refuse to buy papers of him while he does so. If he can stand it will try to.

 The result of Tuesdays election shows how the tail again wagged the dog. The names endorsed by the labor party last Sat urday night were most successful in all the wards but one-the third-which had work ingmen on both sides, and one side got left, of course.

 John Cohen, a molder at the Malleable Iron Foundry, met with a very painful ac- cident Wednesday last, accidentally pouring molten iron into his shoe. He will be laid up for several weeks.
 Election day was eclipsed by the annual meeting at City hall next day. Ten o'clock found the old guard on deck, and they opened to see the rush of the "unwashed" which ove1fowed the assessors room, and made 1t necessary to meet in the large hall above. The proceedings were interesting for stupidity, as they strained at gnat and swallowed a camel, driver, and all. It struggled till noon over an item of $15O for Winthrop park and the matter If a new truck for the fire department, and yet swal- lowed with one gulp the item of $44 900 for water bonds, etc., and other items. How ever, the main question that drew the com mon people to look after their own interests the issuing of bonds for the sewerage scheme-was wisely postponed till next Tuesday evening at 7.30 o'clock. Some people would like to know why we should endorse the scheme for sewerage without knowing the plan, which is very moment ous; and some others would like to know why we should be called on to bestow upon any authorities the power to bond the people any longer for any purpose. The people have been bonded for one thing and another till the debt is so great that the taxes paid for interest alone are enough to build two high schools every year. What mockery it is to boast of reduction of the debt ST 1000, when with the same breath they create higk school debt of $50, ,000, and call for $150, ,O00 more for sewerage. Mayor Doolittle declined the $1 ,OO0 voted him for past services in characteristic IA 1c ing reasonable salary. Honest work de- serves honest pay.

A Letter from Michigan.

Editor NelCS:
 Corn planting will commence here abouts early next week, although the ground is not yet warm and little is gained by putting in seed before the soil is in proper condition to receive and nourish it.
 As stated in former communication, our past winter was a very severe one, but at that time We did not fully realize its severity and all the damages sustain ed therefrom, but as the season advances the traces left by the Icy King become more and more apparent. Quince bush es are mostly killed to the ground; cur rent bushes in about the same condition. Raspberries and blackberries, which with us are an important crop, are at least one-half killed; grapes very badly injured; peaches nearly all killed, and many apple trees killed outright and the fruit buds on other trees so injured and destroyed that our apple crop, which has of late years been important and abun- dant, will, the coming season, be nearly a failure.
 Our great staple, wheat i've raise on- ly winter wheat), has come through the winter in good condition, is looking well and gives promise of an abundant yield the coming harvest. If there is big war in Europe prices will be satisfacto- ", so let them fight if they dare. Ru- mors Of war have already advanced the price of wheat and our farmers are now getting $1.03 per bushel, which is fair price. Let the war go on, only confne 1t to the other continent, and we will raise wheat to feed the armies. Hope no one will be hurt, who's afraid ?

HERE AND THERE.

Saturday night, May 3, the house oi
 Jgnes Logan at Waterloo, N. Y, was
 partly destroyed by fire. Mir Logan, his
 wife and their son, Eddie, aged nine years, perished in the flames. The old est daughter, Lottie, aged IA years, was rescued, but died on the following day. Another daughter, Lizzie, aged Il years and her brother, Jeanie, aged 5 years, escaped.
 Alfred Paraf, the notorious swindler, the man who first made oleomTgarine in this country, died recently in poverty at Lima, Peru. His swindling opera tions were conducted on Q mangiicent scale, and within the past 15 years he must have received and squandered at least $500,000. He was born in Null house, Alsace, of reputable family of French manufacturers. In 1874 he mar ried the daughter of a respectable New York lawyer, and when he fled from this country she accompanied him and probably stuck by him to the end. He was about 40 years old.
 The Winsted Press says: Business men of this place complain bitterly of dull times. A look along the street shows that their complaints are well founded. The stores are empty of GUS toners, the clerks lean up against the counters and mediate, the bosses 'go fishing. It is certainly hard times in Winsted."
 It is said that the clock company in Thomaston has been engaged for some time in the manufacture of watch move ments and having made up $30,000 worth of stock, recently began putting the movements together. It was then discovered that all the watches turned their pointers around backward - Win- sted Press. That's not the first instance on record of time going backward.

Knife Business Dull.

According to the Naugatuck Review the pocket knife business is flat in this state. The Review says: ''The fact that pocket knife making is practically dead in Naugatuck, the town that gave the in. dustry it's birth in this country, is to be lamented indeed But few years ago four factories were running to their full est capacity in this place, giving em- ployment to hundreds of men and sup plying the country with thousands of gross of pocket cutlery annually. Now what change! Not single knife is being made to-day, and the chances are far from promising that the industry will ever be revived to any perceptible de- gree" The Southington Phoenix says that many of the cutters in that place 'Fare very much discouraged on account of lack of work" According to the Woodbury Reporter ''the knife makers in Reynolds Bridge have been out of work so long that many cases of extreme poverty and want are said to exist among them. The works of the American knife company are closed for the lack of or ders, and some of the operatives are un- able to go elsewhere in search of em- ployment and are suffering at home for the means of subsistence. - IFiuSted Press.
 The foregoing statement is truly dis couraging, yet it only partially reports the condition of the knife business, for we might add that during the past month the Holley manufacturing company's works at Lakeville have been shut down three days in week. If we only knew the actual condition of the manufactur- ing industries tor all kinds of business} in New England and the Middle states in fact, throughout the whole country, we would not wonder that tramps abound.
