TIE "Jihboon Club" of New London,
Conn, is planning to man n small
schooner, such rs Connecticut has en-
ployed for many years in the West
Indian trade, run it to the bahamas
and load it with a collection OF sea
shells, which in great variety, size and
beauty are found strewn upon the shores
Of those islands. The crew will then
sail the craft to Chicago by way of the
st, Lawrence, and will sell the shells
from the deck of the vessel. The mem
beers of the club believe they can make
enough to pay the expense of the trip
and also of their own entertainment at
Chicago.

NEW YORK, Nov. s. Both camps of
the national parties are now figuring on
what States they expect to carry. The
lines are now definitely drawn, and there
will be very little fighting between now
and next Tuesday. The main thing will
be to perfect the plans already made.
The following is said to be the table of
Republican expectations:
Alabama, II; California, 8; Colorado,
4; Idaho, 8; Illinois, 24; Indiana, 10;
Iowa, ID; Massachusetts,, 10; Michigan.
s; Minnesota, 8; Nebraska, s; New Hamp-

Ohio, %; Oregon, 4; Pennsylvania, 30;
Rhode Island, i; South Dlkot., B; Va.
mont, 1; Washington, 4; West Virginia
6; Wisconsin, IL; total, 254.
1t will be noticed that the States OF
Nevada and Montana do not ,N.lpcar in
this list.
Chairman Carter says he is conf lat
of the result. Joseph H. Nh llev says
the Solid South is sure to be hrolcn.
y member of the Democratic y It!olal
Committee said this morning:
1--WE expect to carry the Solid South
with its l59 votes, New York 81 Woes
Indiana 10, New Jersey 10, Connect
cut 6, Michigan 6, Wisconsin II. Total
244"
The Democrats likewise Leave out of
their table Nevada and Montana. Thus
both of the parties consider that those
States are doubtful ones, This is about
all they will admit. Their united claims,
it will be seen, amount to i9S votes, 81
more than there are in the college.
The Democratic Committeeman said
they were prepared to stand by the table
they issued. lie said the entire commit
tee had confidence in the result rs there
laid down.

THE STATE TICKET.

The issues of this campaign as far as
they relate to state officers have been
clearly, carefully and definitely laid be-
fore the people of this city by the cam
paign orators and in the press. In fact
they have been before the people of the
whole state during the past twenty-five
months. There is but little doubt that
the minds of all voters are made up as
to how they shall cast their ballots and
the only thing that remains is to be sure
and cast them. The necessity for
change in our stage. coach era constitu-
ton is admitted on all sides. Even
staunch republicans on national ques-
tons say there is no doubt that re-
vision is necessary. They frankly say
we should keep in line with our sister
states of tie union and not be held up
to ridicule. To effect these changes.
however, it is necessary to elect the
democratic state officers, or rather to re-
elect them. To make certain that
where they are elected they will be
allowed to take their seats, the demo-
cratic senators and representatives
should also be elected. Judge Morris
deserves to be indicated, and Messrs
Sanger and Phelan likewise deserve
vindication and ask for it. The politi-
cal machine of the republican party that
has kept up the turmoil and disturbance
during the past two years should re-
ceive a well merited rebuke from the
electors of Connecticut on next Tuesday
and we believe it will. Vote the whole
democratic ticket. 1t is necessary that
everyone whose name is on it should be
elected

PROBABLY TIN LIVES LosN


The oil Laden Bark Norcross Burned In
the Seine,
PARIS, Nov. 5-The British bark, Nor
cross, which left Philadelphia on Octo-
Der I'd for Rouen, France. with load Of
petroleum, has been burned in the Seine,
with a loss of certainly three and proba-
bly, ten lives.
Captain Roop, who was in command of
the Norcross, had his wife on board with
him, and both were saved
How the fire originated is not known.
When it was discovered it had gained
considerable Roadway and every effort to
prevent it from spreading to the petro-
leum was in vain.
As soon rs the petroleum caught fire
a series of explosions followed, and a
bright flame shot up in the air, while
dense smoke almost hid the bark from
those on shore.
The crew who escaped the flames
rushed to the side and leaped into the
river. The Captains wife WAS saved
chiefly by her husbands eXertions. Five
others were also saved.
The remains of three horribly burned
were found in the river, and seven others
are missing and it is thought they have
gone to the bottom. Several of the sur
vivors We're injured by the burning petrol
cum, which hoated on the water in a
fiery state some distance about the vessel,
making approach to the scene of the
wreck dangerous.

LITTLE LoTTlE MAY CoTTRELL,
remedy

Cured when the doctors could not.
This is the record which we publish
every day about this wonderful medi-
cine, DIR Greene's Nervura blood and
nerve remedy. 1t is certainly the mos
remarkable curer of diseases, and all
sufferers should use it. 1t can be pro-
cured at any druggist for 81, and it is
purely vegetable and harmless.
1t should not for moment be classed
with ordinary patent medicines, for it is
the discovery of atgreat!!physicion the
prescription, in fact, of the renowned
DIR Greene of 35 w. 14th Street, New
York, the most successful specialist in
the cure of nervous and chronic diseases.
who gives consultation and advice free,

PIGOTT vs. KELLOGG.

The democratic candidate for con-
gress in the second congressional dis
trict, James p. Pigott of New Haven, is
a young man, a graduate of Yale, a
lawyer of recognized ability and pos
sessed of the ambition to make an hon
orable name. He was one of the fore
most friends of labor in the legislature.
He is democrat of the dyed-in-the-
wool stripe; a partisan to the extent of
making enemies on account of his
allegiance to party principles and the
discharge of plain duty to party candi-
dates, and has natural democratic ma
jority back of him of $500. 1t is the
duty of every democrat in the district
to see to it that Mr. Pigott's name is on
his ballot when deposited next Tues
day. Then will the people be repre-
sented by a man who is of them and for
them. The republican candidate for
this office, Mr. Kellogg, on the contrary,
represents the manufacturers of the
Naugatuck valley, who are his friends
and clients. He has been in congress
before and was supposed to have had
his share of political honors. Just why
the store house of republican antiquities
should be rummaged for a candidate is
not apparent. Younger men say it is
because the manufacturers and trusts
will put out more money, in a legitimate
way, for General Kellogg, than for any
o her man. But the latter are piqued
1t matters not why S. W~Kellogg was
nominated by republicans, the duty of
the democrats is to send Mr. Pigott to
Washington as the representative from
this district, that laws may be made fer
the benefit of the people and not for the
purpose of enslaving them.
