 Mrs. N. H. Marks has been quite ill sev- eral weeks.
 Jared Cooper is on the sick list and his condition is such as to cause some alarm.
 The condition of local politics is becom- ing exceedingly interesting-to some. A chest of carpenters tools was stolen from Hemingway's new house, near the meadows on the turnpike, few nights ago. Oct. 16.-The village was entertained on Saturday by the visit of about thirty lads and lasses belonging to the Hartford high school in bus drawn by six fine horses, intent upon chestnut outing, or jolly time anyway The merry laughter and high school cheer of ':High, High, High School, High," was evidence to people on the street of the success of the excursion. A meeting was called at the village hall Saturday evening to organize choral so- ciety for the winter. Very little enthu- siasm was awakened, so a committee was appointed consisting of MT. Erastus Gay and Mir. Charles w. Lewis to canvass for the cause. Male voices are somewhat linn ited in the village this season, and there is a bare possibility of it's settling down to 6 ssDove Choral, :" which would be o novelty, | to say the least. Wouldn't it be wise to give "Chorals" and t'Old Folks Concerts | rest this winter and have some other variety of entertainment for change. The Pennington grange started in with an unusual number of members present l on Monday evening and very pleasant | time was experienced.
 Saturday the little folks of the Center district school went on picnic to Hook
 CTS grove, spending the entire day. Miss Rosa Klauser went along to look after
 them and see that they had good time | without breaking their necks. Little Miss Jeanette Vorce, Grace and Flossie Clark, Daisy Hart, Hattie Darlington, Elliott and Webster Clark were among the num- l Der.
 John Reynolds, farm hand of MT. | Adrian R. Wadsworth, twas arrested Friday | by Constable William H. Bronson for | using obscene language while intoxicated l to Postmaster E. H. Deming in the post office. He was tried Saturday morning by l Justice Taft of Unionville and fined $8 and costs, which amounted to $20.S Mir. Wadsworth paid it for him and MT. Reynolds has had something to think about ever since and we predict that the
 "growler" and Reynolds" have parted
 company for some time to come. 1 Mr. Thomas Scott and Henry N. Whit 1 telsey delegates to the Fourth district sena- 1 torial convention, went to Plainsville, Mon day afternoon to the meeting. MT. Bras
 tus Gay of Pennington was nominated,
 capturing all the votes on the formal bal l lot. This district includes New Britain, Bristol, Burlington, West Hartford, Avon and Pennington, Speeches were made by
 delegates, all predicting victory for Mir. l Gay and a. promise of faithful work by each one in their respective locations Mir. 1 Gay is a member of the state central com
 mittee, which will be no disadvantage to
 him in the race for honor.

 the third change of this nature in the vil-
 lage within a few months, and is bound to increase.
 The young men that have gone out from
 this village to the different colleges this l fall are all connected with the athletic l teams, which speaks well for the brawn 1 and muscle of this locality.

 ton School of Technology.
