 The Hartford postofice advertised letter addressed to Dr. O. B. Adams of this place and 1t was afterwards forwarded to it's desti- nation. As Dr. Adams is 50 we'll known in | Hartford as an agent of the Connecticut Humane society it would seem that even in the Hartford postofice his address would be known without advertising his letters in the papers.
 ] Loyal council, Knights of Columbus, has not had death in it's membership in year. ! Sc nooQ0 0fv ot,oro fhn | age age being twenty. eight years. Eighteen new members have been initiated the past year, making 100 in all. It is popular society and is doing good work. Oar Irish American citizens were partly we'll represented at the banquet in honor of St. Patrick given Monday evening. Fair Haven has members both in the Knights of St. Patrick and the Friendly Sons, the former having the largest contingent. The services at St. Francis church in the evening, with the sermon on the life of St. Patrick, were very interesting.
 The reviving business at the rubber shop has greatly pleased the large number of workers who live here. The shoemakers. who have been making only a set per day for many weeks, are now allowed the option of making @ set and half or two sets, and bootmakers can make sixteen pairs per day. The reviving business does not mean the | operatives may have all the work they choose. | The cause of this spurt is the advent of the spring orders, which have been coming in unusually fast.

 The award by one of the superior court judges of $50 for the death of young Albert Holden by drowning at the Quinnipiac draw. bridge last October is not thought much of by Fair Haven public sentiment. This same sentiment ayers that the drowning of boy Is quite as much damage as the biting by ( dog of policeman's hand, yet for the latter $350 was awarded in the same court. Before the trial the Holden plaintiff was offered $500 to settle the case, but refused. Int award of $50 is considered pretty light estimate for life.
