Then what Will you dO!
.'I1i go TO a house agent. I ought to
have Thought of that in the first place"
| called on an agent the next day,
and had some conversation with him.
IF you viii tell me about what sum
you wish to pay for a house, Mr.. ="
wilkins is my name"
Mr. Wilkins, / have no doubt 1 can
suit you To a I.
| named sum a little in advance of
what have paid the past year for the
house l now occupy; and the agent re-
piled:
There is house in one of the best
neigh borhoods in town which is to be
vacated in about ten days. which | can
let you have at the price you name, and
it is really n treasure at that figure. 1t
has ten large rooms, large yard porch
es and all modern convenicnces. / can
recommend it in every respect, sir. Its
advantages are such as to admit of no
criticism, and l promise you, and |
stake my reputation on the event, that
you will find it quite to your liking
The rent is not low, to be sure, as
things go. but the location is one of the
choicest in the city. 1t has been occu-
pied by a very careful tenant to whom
no objection is entertained that / can
learn except that he has children
$50 have | children, ] said very de
cisively; -four of them, and / intend
that they shall occupy the same house
with me during the next twelve
months, at all hazards. SO if that is
the objection I believe we can drop the
subject where it is"
''Ah, yes" said the agent, blandly.
1T is only an objection of principle,
however. The owner is opposed TO
renting his houses to families with
children on principle. The house TO
which | refer forms the only exception
to his rule. j have no doubt he could
be induced to make the same exception
in your favor sir"
But if for me, why not for his pres
ent tenant?" / asked.
''Oh, he would for his present tenant,
he told me; but the party refuses to
pay the increased rental, / am told,
and has found another house"
Some further conversation followed
was shown plan of the house. and
It's various eXcellences were explained

a Dog THAT Catch.. suckers.

Lost River Gap has a dog that pays
for his keep by catching suckers for his
master, says the San Francisco Call.
The intelligent canine catches the fish
IN his teeth, and it is Immediately a
gone sucker, as with a toss of his head
he hings II high and dry. Each sucker
yields nearly pint of oil, which sells
readily at eighty cents to one dollar a
gallon, so that dog that can catch a
thousand or more in season is worth
owning.

How Mr.. Wilkins Was Fooled
When House Hunting.

Eureka! I have found it!' / shouted

''Oh! have you?" exclaimed my wife,

Nichols Nichols.

One of the prettiest marriages and one that called together the largest congre- gation of relatives and friends in many years was that of Dr Henry $. Nichols to Miss Harriett G., daughter of Mrs Ad- die Nichols, Wednesday evening, at Trin- ity church, Rev MT Linsley performing the ceremony. The church had been elaborately decorated by friends of the bride with wild flowers and presented an enchanting appearance; golden rod, hy- drangeas and other wild and cut flowers being artistically arranged in great pro- fusion. The bride was attired in an im- ported travelling gown of cadet blue Hen rietta cloth and presented charming ap- pearance. The ushers were Dr c. A. Peck of Grandview, N. Y., Dr Robert Merwin of Kinderhook, N. Y., Robert H . Beers and Frank Wright of this place. The ceremony over, Dr and Mrs Nichols were driven to the B p m train, for New York, leaving there, Wednesday morning, for wedding tour that takes in Niagara and other points of interest in northern New York. The wedding gifts were numerous, beautiful and costly. Dr and Mrs Nichols will make their home in Amenia, N. r., and the best wishes of their host of friends go with them for their future happiness and pros perity in their new home. The guests from out of town present at the ceremony included Will T. Nichols, Philo Nichols, New York; Mir and Mrs P. H. Skidmore, Jr, Miss Nellie Skidmore, Miss Stella Nichols, Mrs J. w. Skidmore, Mr and Mrs W. H. Russell, Bridgeport; Mrs s. N. Beers, Waterbury; Walter M. Smith, Brooklyn; Miss Florence Beard, Cam bridge, Mass; Miss A. Teresa Driggs, Elliott Driggs, Jr. Brooklyn; Walter Nichols, Wilton.
The Newtown bee., 1891-09-18

Of the foals of 1887, there were only two entries, Birmingham, l.. M. Johnson, Newtown; Pomperaug, W. F. Curtiss, WOodburY. Five remarkably close heats were trotted, the horses being often neck and neck, or almost so, while more than once at the finish the admirably matched stallions went under the wire at almost the same time. Birmingham came in first on second heat, but was awarded second position because the driver, who was not we'll versed in the rules, cut ahead of the other horse, driving the first half mile in such a way as to check Pomperaug's speed. The rules are that until the horses have made three quart CTS of the distance around the track, a driver can take the course of rival by driving ahead of him, provided he does it without checking the speed of the oth- CT horse; but, during the race over the list quarter of the distance to the finish, all horses must keep their own positions. The summary of the race is as follows, mile heats:
 Birmingham, l l; Pomperaug,2 ? ?. Time, 3 Ol, - 8, 5s, 57I-2.
 The Newtown people were greatly pleased by the triumph of their favorite and the air was rent with cheers at the close of this hotly contested race.-[ New Milford Gazette.
