ANNUAL TOWN MEETING.
A Five Mill Tax Laid and the Treasurers
 Salary Increased.

A Five Mill Tax Laid and the Treasurer's
 Salary Increased.
 The adjourned town meeting was called to order in the district court room last evening by Town Clerk James J. Madden. Samuel Nuttall was elected chairman.
 The meeting voted to levy a tax of five mills on the list of ratable estate of the town of Waterbury for 1899.
 The following was then read by the clerk:
 ''Voted, that the salary of the town treasurer be increased to $500 per annum."
 The motion to pass the vote caused an extended debate in which several gentle men present joined. The point was raised that such action, not being in the call for the meeting, would be illegal, but this was overruled by the chairman, who cited a similar action having been taken in the case of raising selectmen's salaries. The motion was finally put and carried by rising vote of thirty seven to twenty-two.
 The map showing the proposed layout of Chapel street in Simonsville, was not completed, so action on that matter was postponed for four weeks, and the meet ing adjourned to that date,

POLITICAL POINTERS.
Voters to be Made Must Make Applicatio
 Before October 20,

Voters to be Made Must Make Application
 Before October 20.
 The list of voters to be made in Wa terbury for the coming election is very large, but the exact number cannot yet be given, as applications are left in the headquarters, with the registrars and with their deputies, and all have not yet been collected. Every man who wishes to vote should see to it that the registrars get his name before October 20, because, on that day before 5 p. m. all applica- tions must be in the hands of the town clerk. Printed lists will then be placed in conspicuous places so that errors of cOpyists and printers may be corrected.
 All persons, who have been made voters in other states, and desire to vote here in November, having been resident sufficient length of time to vote, must be made the same as new voters. A certificate from another state that the person has been voter will not be suffi cient. This fact ought to be kept in mind by electors who are to exercise the right of suffrage here for the first time this fall. Such electors must be "made', just as though they had never voted anywhere.
 The board for the admission of new voters will hold its first meeting op Wednesday, October 26, sitting from 9 a. m. until 5 p. m. Should it be neces- sary this board can sit for five consecu- tive days. It will also meet on Monday, October 31, the session lasting from a m. until : D. m. Monday, November 7, the board will hold it's last session for this year, meeting at a. m. and con- cluding at , p. m. This meeting will be held solely for the purpose of admitting those whose qualifications mature be- tween October 31 and election day, Tuesday, November 8.
 The delegates to elect delegates to the fifth senatorial democratic convention which will take place at Naugatuck, October F, were called to order by Chairman Hynes in the police court room last evening.

When the report of the committee on credentials had been made and accepted the chair appointed the following gentlemen as tellers, each ward being represented: M. F. Leary, J. s. Neagle, James Wagner and John R. Martin. The following gentlemen were elected delegates: From the first W ard, :, James A. Hynes and J. F. Duncan; from the second ward, Henry Flanagan and Edward Fox; from the third ward William Lawlor and John Early; from the fourth ward, John R. Martin and William Laffin.
 Constable O'Brien went to New Ha- ven to-day in the interest of Attorney Root, on matters pertaining to the pro- posed election contest, to be brought against MeSsrs Pinney and Boughton. It is probable that Judge Thayer will come to this city next week and give hearing on the matter.

Death of Alexander Bonner.

Alexander Bonner, Of Stoneboro,
Mercer county, died on Friday, July
8, 1892, after an illness of but a few
days duration. The funeral took
place on Monday of this week, aud
was largely attended by sorrowing
relatives and friends.
Mr.. Bonuer was son of the late
Jeremiah Bonner, and was born at
Mahoning, Armstrong county, in
September, 1851. In 1872 he moved
to Stoneboro, and engaged with his
father in the mercantile business,
which he continued with success until
his untimely death. He was always
in all public affairs, a good citizen
and neighbor, charitable to the poor
and kind husband and father.
A widow and Eve children, two sons
and three daughters, are left to mourn
his death. He was brother of
Charles Bonner, of Chicago, formerly
Of Tionesta, and Of Mrs. G. w.
Robinson and Miss Mary Bonner.

W. A. Grove has completed a
sample of his newly invented machine
known as "bit elevator" and it is
pronounced success by all who have
seen it and know anything about ma
chinery. 1t is intended more parlicu.
larly for the lower oil field, where the
bits used weigh from 400 to 800
pounds, and require two and three
men to handle one. With Mr.. Groves
machine an ordinary man can handle
the largest bits with ease and alacrity,
and if Albert hasn't got a nice little
fortune right in his fingers it will not
be the fault of his ingenuity in the
construction of muscle.saver that
beats anything placed on the market
for many years. 1t is fully secured
by letters patent.
One Of the recent notable events
occurring in the town Of LeechburR,
Pa, was the marriage, on June 29th,
of Miss Maud Van Giesen, formerly
of this place, and Charles F. Arm.
strong, of Allegheny. The affair was
brilliant one, many guests being
present from distance, among whom
we're Mrs. S. G. Sloan, and DR.. and
Mrs F. T. Mason, of Tionesta, Mrs.
w. r. Dunn and daughter, Louise, ol
Washington, d. G., the latter acting
as one of the bridesmaids. A special
train bore the young couple to Pitts
burg, from whence an extended western
tour was begun. The groom is con.
nected with the Pennsylvania railroad
company and we'll known and popular
in railroad circles.
People somehow cannot or will
not understand that cards of thanks
published in newspapers, expressing
their gratitude to friends for kindness
proffered during their bereavement are
in exceedingly bad taste. Nobody
wants to be thanked publicly for doing
simple little act of humanity anC
decency. We must all die sooner oil
later and will all need the loving min
istrations of friends TO help to smootl
the pillow of death, and nobody de
serves thanks for doing duty which
all owe to their fellows. Editors d.
not like to refuse favor of this kinC
to bereaved friends, but they would b.
doing them a kindness by so doing
for it is utterly and absolutely out o
place. e.-Ptm1. Spirit.

NEWSY NOTES.

One of tho sad and shocking features of
French Creek, near Carlton station, OF
three people Mr.. and Mrs. Arthur Ha-
zetine and Miss Nellie Naramoro, OF
Cochranton, and Mr.. and Mrs. Oscar G..
Hood, of Utica, started i'm boat from
Cochranton at / o'clock that afternoon,
intending to float 10 Utica. In going under
the bridge at Carlton the boat struck ono
of the piers and Immediately capsizod.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hazeltine and Miss Nara
more were swept down stream and
drowned. Mr.. aud Mrs. Hood clung to
the boat and floatod 10 an island, where
they were rescued. All the bodies have
been recovered.
According to the Herald some of the
Titusville sufferers are rather aesthetic
and difficult to please. For instance there
is the man who will not wear Isle thread
socks, because they were darned aud hurt
his feet. Several women have applications
before the Relief Committee for new sets
of faso teeth, none of these articles, un-
fortunately being in the category of con-
tributions. Another has tearfully put in
petition for an enlarged crayon portrait
of her one-year-old child (which perished
i'm tho Hood. Another of the absurd re-
quests is that Of an old lady who is not
long for this life, and who insists that the
committee shall furnish her with a green
silk dress to replace her antiquatod we'd
ding robe Of that hue.

REsotrrIoNs OF RESPECT.

Whoreas, our beloved Comrade, Daniel
b. Eminger, has been removed from the
scenes of life, we deem it fitting that we
should pay tribute to his memory.
He left a good record as a soldier and
was a good citizen. As member of the
Grand Army he was earnest and enthu-
siastic in the cause, and one of the early
members of Stow Post.
We sympathize with the widow and
children of the deceased, who mourn the
loss of a good husband and parent.
Resolved, that our charter be draped in
mourning for 30 days in memory of the
deceased and that these resolutions he
published in the county papers.
