 Perhaps we are justified in saying that the village of Somers never received such shock as it did last Saturday, when the sad words were passed from one to anoth- er-"Carrie l.. Kibbe has passed away r Yet such was the fact. After an illness of only two days her spirit took it's flight, and she has gone where there will be no more sickness, no more parting. By the young people this death is more keenly felt, be- cause she was so widely known, always having been associated with them in their pleasures and their efforts to secure g higher standard of religion and morality. Amongst her schoolmatss in Somers, Will braham and Springfield her memory will be kept in fond remembrance. Her funeral was held at her fathers (J. Munroe Kib- be) last Tuesday afternoon, Rev. 0. H. Rieketts officiating. And, as she lay in her casket covered with gray cloth and with choice flowers, she looked as if she was asleep. And the grave had been rob- bed of it's dreariness, for kind hands had been there and placed laurels upon it's face. Thus are we again reminded that life is uncertain, and that God moves in a mysterious way"
 Warren O. Kibbe celebrated his S7th birthday last Wednesday, March 4th, by driving to Springfield in the snow.storu,.

Harris and wife, which was celebrated at their residence on the afternoon and even- ing of last day of February, eighty per sons were present and there seemed no end of good things for. the inner man.. Re marks were made by Wm. Reynolds, and George H. Reynolds of Spring Manor read an interesting from Rev. Henry Bromley, Brooklyn, N. r., who married the couple
 fifty years ago. He congratulated them on their pleasant half century matrimonial journey and wished them continued joy to the end. Ex Senator Merrow read a paper written for the occasion by Wm. Reynolds, after which music, singing and social chat made the occasion one most enjoyable
 The table spread was mostly furnished by guests, and purse of $110 in lieu of the usual presents made on such occasions, was presented by Wm. Reynolds in behalf of the generous donors, for which the groom of fifty summers thanked them for their kindness.
 Agent Eaton, with his deputy; called on James Costello a few days since and searched his premises for contraband liquor James was taken before waiting court at Eagleville, Justice Turner from Stafford Springs. James plead guilty to the charge of selling the "critter" without license and paid $65 to mend the broken law. Before he had time to leave the court room he was again arrested for frescoing. or practicing his art at midnight painting on the outside of the church near the state farm. To this complaint he said not guilty and asked for few days time to obtain counsel. He gave $40O bond and appeared the follow ing Friday with E. B. Sumner and Huber Clark as legal advisers. J. l.. Hunter and Lawyer King appeared for prosecution. The case was only partly finished, and an other adjournment taken to Saturday, March 7th, at 10 o'clock &. m. James had just reached home when he was again ar- rested, this time for running moonlight distillery or something of the kind. He
 was taken to Hartford and gave bonds of 5000 for his appearance three weeks later. Thus for few days the officers of the law made it quite lively for him and the end is not yet. The adjourned court came in Saturday, 7th, at 10 8. m., Justice Turner on the bench. The evidence was decided ly against the prisoner and the court re- quired hlm to give bond of $4O0 to ap-
 pear before the superior court at Holland.
 Another complaint charging Costello with painting the church and daubing monu-
 msnts And head stones in the cemetery
 near by will be tried before Justice Turner
 March 18th. The reason, it may be ex-
 plained, for calling a justice of peace out of town to try cases is that Mansfield is practically without a justice.

Engineer Hayden of the New England road had been upon his train 27 hours when he reached Sandy Hook Saturday night, says the Danbury News. There he received an order to do some extra work, and promptly telegraphed that he was ex- hausted, being hardly able to finish his trip. "You must" was the answer that came from Hartford. Engineer Hayden stepped down from his cab, bought tick ct and took the next up train, and this was the dispatch that was posted at the Dan bury station that night:-
 Conductors-Do not allow Engineer Hay den to ride away from Sandy Hook unless he pays his fare. R.B.w. SMr. Hayden was one of the oldest engi- neers on the road, but he is now looking for job where Is or 20 hours will pass for days work.
 Chief Train Dispatcher J. F. Russ says in regard to the matter: Engineer Hay den was running with orders to meet train 701 at Pomperaug Valley. About the time he reached Sandy Hook, word was received that it was necessary to have some coal cars shifted there at once. Or ders were sent to the conductor of Hay den's train to have Hayden shift the cars and to wait at Sandy Hook for 7O1, instead of meeting it further along the road. The conductor wired back that Hayden refused to moved the coal and also refused to sign the order to meet 701 at Sandy Hook. Word was then sent to him in that case to side track his train. Instead of this Hay. den left his engine and train standing on the main track and blocking the road. It was then that the above dispatch was sent. Hayden, Mir. Russ said, did not ask for a rest. If he had done so he would have been granted one. In regard to his hay ing been on the road twenty seven hours, he said that Hayden had been on duty at that time about twenty-five hours, bat during that time he had been at Hawley- vile for about six hours and at Waterbury for about four, during which time he had had very little. to do The road at the present is full of business, and every one is being worked as much as possible.
