A Teaeher's Resignation Asked For. Considerable discussion and interest is astir in the Dixwen avenue school district over the fact that Superintendent Dutton has asked for the resignation of Mise Annie G. Kennedy, teacher in room No. 5 of the Dixwell school. She has always been consid- cred as good teacher and very popular with scholars and parents. The reason assigned for the superintendent's act is that she does not sufficiently understand and practice the modern idea of teaching as set up by MT. Dutton. On the contrary, according to re- ports, George B. Hurd, principal of the Win chester district of which the Dixwe1l school is part, states that he has always thought Miss Kennedy was one of his best teachers, and that if she was unqualified by the reason given for her resignation many other teach CTS in the district must likewise be asked to resign. A petition has been circulated through the district for the purpose of urging Miss Kennedy's retention by the board of ed- ucation. It has been signed by many parents of scholars. Members of the board have also been personally approached and the case bids fair to be an interesting one when it is finally discussed. Miss Kennedy's case has been re- ported to the committee on schools. A slight was given to this teacher not many months ago. One of the customs of the board of ed- ucation is that the period of engagement shall be for year. The last time Miss Ken nedy was only hired for one term. Since then she has been continued on the stals Of teach CTS in the Dixwell avenue school without the formality of regular engagement This cir- cumstance, it is thought, may have had some influence in the turn that things have taken. Superintendent Dutton's action seems to be disapproved of by many and his justification will be looked for with interest at the board meeting.

CATARRHAL DANeERS.

To be freed from the dangers of sufrocation while lying down; to breathe freely. sleep soundy and undsturbed; to rise refreshed, head clear brain ac tive and free from pain or ache; to know that no poisonous puLrid matter defies the breath and rots away the delicate machinery of smell, taste and hearing; to feel that the system does not through It's veins and arteries, suck up the poison that is sure to undermine and destroy, is indeed bleising beyond all other humau enjoyments. To purchase immunity from such fate should be the object of all afflicted. But those who have tried many reme- dies and physicians despair of relief or cure.
 Sanford's Radical Cure meets every phase of Catarrh, from simple head cold to the most loath- and destructive stages. It is local and consti- tutional. Instant in relieving, permanent in cur ing safe, economical and never-failing

Indigestion

IS not only distressing complaint, or itself, but, by causing the blood to become depraved and the system en- feebled, is the parent of innumerable maladies. That Ayers SarsapariI1a is the best cure for Indigestion, even when complicated with Liver Complaint, is proved by the following testimony from Mrs. Joseph Lake, of Broadway Centre, Mich.:-
 "Liver complaint and indigestion ending my existence. For more than four years I suffered untold agony, was reduced almost to a skeleton, and hardly had strength to drag myself about. All kinds of food distressed me, and only the most delicate could be digested at all. Within the time mentioned several physicians treated me without giving re- lief. Nothing that took seemed to do any permanent good until commenced the use of Ayers Sarsaparilla, which has produced wonderful results. Soon after commencing to take the Sarsapa- condition. My appetite began to return and with it came the ability to digest all the food taken, my strength im- proved each day, and after a few months of faithful attention to your directions, I found myself a well woman, able to attend to all household duties. The medicine has given me a new lease of Ife.''

 Gentlemen-For the past five years have been afflicted with Scrofulous Humor, which appeared in the form of unsghtly eruptions on the face and affected my general health so badly that was obliged to leave my place of employment, and in fact give up labor altogether for the last two years I was under the care, successively, of at least a dozen skillful physicians but their efforts gave me no permanent benefit Various patent medicines were also tried, but to no effect. tn May last a friend called my attention to Dr. R. W. Lougee's vitalizing Compound. began to take it at once, but it was not until had used nearly twolbottes that any good results were noticeable From that time, however, began to gain and have continued to improve ever since. The blothes that so disfig- ured my face have now largely disappeared, my strength has returned in great measure, and my weakened nervous system Is repaired In fact. l have so greatly improved in every sense, by means of the vitalizing Compound, that I shall continue it's use in the fullest confidence that it will com pletely restore me to health.

Supreme Court of ErroFs -JAnuarI
 TerFsn.


 The Supreme court on Saturday handed down three important decisions. In the case of the President and Fellows of Yale college vs. the city of New Haven, the Supreme court sustains the decision of the Superior court fin deciding the case in favor of the city. The college was ordered te repair the sss wall on Chapel street, near the boat house, 50 sidewalk could be properly laid. This cost the college eight hundred dollars and the city refused to pay this sum or any part of it. The demurrer that the Superior court sustained was that the walk adjoined the plaintiffs land, and hence were in duty bound to construct the walk.
 In the case of Samuel L. Bronson ct al. vs. Isaac Strouse, the court finds no error and sustains the will of the late Mrs. Esther UIlman. The case came to the court upon 8 reservation as the validity of the second and fortieth clauses of the will. The second clause relates to the investment of one thou sand dollars, the interest of which shall pay the necessary annual expenses of keeping the cemetery lot, and, if there is any sur plus, it shall be given to some poor Jewish family. The fortieth clause relates to the appliance of any moneys left over after the legaeies and bequests are paid to the main- tenance of such of her heirs ss are needy.
 In the case of Horace c. Wilcox ct al. vs. the city of Meriden the court finds no error. Mir. Wilcox appealed to the Superior court from the decision of the board of compenea- tion, allowing him $1 ,00o damages for the injury done to his property by the layout of Church street.
