VICTORY FOR THE DEMOCRATS.

Judge Thayer Says That G. A. Boughton
 Was Not Legally Elected Second Select
 man.
 In the contested election case of Moritz Grelle against E. w. Pinney and G. A. Boughton, Judge Thayer has reached Attorney c. G. Root yesterday afternoon. It is as follows:
 E.. w. Pinney, Moritz Grelle and John McElligott are elected selectmen, for the following reasons: The votes cast in the fourth voting district for George A. Boughton for selectman should not be counted for him, as he took part in the count. He was city counter and it was his duty as a city counter to handle town ballots and throw out unsealed envelopes and those having marks or devices. Judge Thayer finds Tn the case of E. w. Pinney that the votes cast for him in the third voting district should not be thrown out, as he merely cut off the ends of the envelopes at the request | of the counters, did not see the ballots and had no voice in the count.
 In accordance with the judges order Attorney Root made out a decree on the above finding and took it to New Haven this morning for signature. Attorney Root had not returned at press hour. He is quoted as saying to a | TepOTGSE ldSO OLAoO OhO OANSA OA Judge Thayer is final until the supreme court decides the matter and that, there fore, MT Grelle is now selectman in- stead of MT Boughton, and is entitled to take office immediately. The attorneys for the defense, Messrs Kellogg & Kel- logg, will carry the case immediately to the supreme court, and pending. the final decision, claim that Mir Boughton will hold the office under the provisions of Section 59 of the general statutes,
 which is as follows:
 "Upon such reservation or appeal said | judge shall make the necessary findings and lodge the same and the files in such cause with the clerk of the superior court of the county wherein the peti
 tioner resides, who shall cause the same
 to be entered upon the docket of the SUI. preme court of errors to be proceeded
 with as in other cases and the same
 shall be privileged in the order of tria
 and final judgment shall be rendered
 thereon by said judge of the superior court or in case of his death, absence ol
 inability by some other judge of the SUI perior court, as the supreme court oi errors shall advise"

A Popu1tst Attacks Catholics.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, October 26.-Rev T. H. c. Birmingham, local minister, who is the peoples party candidate for congress and who had good chance to defeat the democratic candidate, has created sensation by an address which he has issued in which he denounces the Roman Catholic church and it's mem bers in very bitter terms. w. l.. Terry, the democratic nominee, is a Catholic and Rev Mir Birmingham asks in his letter if such a man is fit to go to con- gress. He says that the Catholic church is already grasping after power in this country and that the people should know the effects of Romanism in any country it has ever controlled. The address has caused much indignation and the republicans, both Protestants and Catholics, who have been support, ing Birmingham, say that they will not vote for him.

MAKING VOTERS.
The First Days Work About Up to the
 Average.

The E1rSt pays "Ork ADOut Op LO lhc
 Average.
 Both court rooms were crowded this morning with prospective voters and vet the work of naturalization and making voters is proceeding slowly. Up to noon seventy had been natural ized and about one hundred admitted to the electors oath. Considerable delay was caused by errors in the lists. The out of town people predominate and in the corridor of City hall could be seen each leader with his followers of ten and twelve. There seems to be lack of enthusiasm on the side of the demo- cratic leaders, It is not good policy to wait until the last moment. With over 200 applications more than the opposing party a move should be made at once to see that all become voters. At the hour of going to press the number naturalized was 143 and 24O had been given the,- electors oath. To -day's session will continue until 8 o'clock this evening and as many as can should avail themselves of the opportunity afforded of being made electors.

A writer claims that camp meetings
originated in Kentucky in the year 1900,
at Casper River Church, in Logan
County, and became established during
the great Kentucky revival early in the
century. 1t is claimed that both Pres
byterians aud Methodists participated
ia the earlier meetings, though the
camp meeting is DOW looked upon as
distinctly a Methodist institution. The
great revival is one of the curious things
IN Kentucky history, and lis effects are
still visible in other things nesides camp
meetings, granting these religious open
air gatherings t have had the origin At
