NEW HAVEN DISTRICT
Camp Ground minus
Camp Meeting.

Camp Ground AssociatIon-Annu
Camp Meeting.
The following circular has just been is
sued:
The New Haven district srnual camp
meeting will be held upon the delightful
grounds at Plsinville, commencing Mon
day, August 81, and closing Saturday of
the game week. This Plainville camp
meeting has had steady and prosperous
growth for more than twenty years and
has become a great factor In the life and
work of New Haven district Methodism.
1t is genuine Methodist csmp-ms-ting of
the very best type, conducted on princi-
pies that commend it to the support of all
our people. Year by year the attendance
increases. The attractions of the place
and the spirit of the meeting readily trans
form the casual visitor of one year into the
regular camper of the next.
Arrangements are making for larger
meeting this season than ever before. Sew
ersl churches are projecting new society
buildings upon the grounds, and doubtless
the number of private cottages and tents
will be increased.
To further the wishes of the many desir-
ing to remain longer than q single camp
week, a committee Is srrangins for an at
tractive program of services, lectures, con
VsntlOn WORK. exc IN Inc week following
the regular camp meeting 1t Is hoped TO
make this an important extention of the
benefits of our annual district encsmp.

fore, and the assembly meeting will open
ON the following Monday. The Sabbath
intervening will be quietly spent in home
worship by those upon the grounds, with
out invitation to others from abroad. The
singing will be conducted by Prof. L W
Harvey of Bristol, who has had charge for 4
few years. He will have large chorus

AHarmIess Man Prosecuted.

To the Editor OF the JOURNAL AND COURIER.
Poor old Jos-Joe," alias Mr.. F. Daley,
of Hsmden, seems to have been the victim
of legal persecution. He Is looked upon
by the people where he lives as somewhat
odd and even irresponsible, but as quiet,
hard working citizen, greatly annoyed and
ridiculed by boys and girls in his vicinity.
Two girls were on his premises fort
night since, although he had posted mo
trespass" sign, and being asked to get off
they refused to do 80. "Joe joe" quietly
led them off without, however, hurting
them. They made no complaint. Their
parents did not. But he was arrested and
the officers got $50 ont of 1t Chat amount
being the fines and costs) for which the
town has to pay. "Joe-Joe" having no
counsel, and the trial being with closed
doors, was sent to jail for twenty days.
This was not a Law and Order persecu-
ton In fact 1t was members of the Law
and Order league who were instrumental
in giving Mr.. Daily his liberty. He lie now
enjoying his freedom. ]. E ANDREWS

the five other members of tbs board did
not appear at the meeting, as 1t ia report

A NEW DISEASE

working Havoc Among the Horses
of Bridgeport-One Hundred Horses
Have Died oft There Recently.
One hundred horses in Bridgeport have
died recently of violent distemper, which
runs usually into lung trouble. 1t attacks
the older horses usually, but young ones
are also its victims. One centrally located
liveryman has lost four horses by the dis
ease in the last two weeks Said the liv-
eryman to a Farmer reporter yesterday:
"The peculiar feature about the disease"
said he, els the effect 1t produces upon the
animals in its incipient stages. A horse
that may be to all outward appearances In
the best of health at o'clock in the even
ing is found dead in his stall the next
morning. 80 you see it is impossible to
discover the disease in time to combat
1t effectively. The only thing left to do
is to pay particular attention to sanitary
regulations, and also regulate the diet.
In this manner you may ward off
the disease, but even then 1t ia largely a
matter of chance. Friday evening drove
one of my best ..roadsters to Birmingham
and back. I arrived home about 8 O'Clock
in the evening and after personally seeing
that he was properly bedded and fed, went
to my home. When I got around next
morning the animal was dead, he having
died In great agony during the early hours
of the morning"
Mr.. P. W. Kelley the East Side truck
man, has suffered the loss of a fine team
from this new and peculiar ailment Sun
day morning when he went to the stable to
feed his horses one of them was dead, al
though it appeared in fine spirits the night
previous. Sunday afternoon his other
horse also died. Mr.. Kelley said:
''It is the most remarkable silment that
has yet set in among horses. Sometimes
it strikes q horse during the night and q
few hours after he is dead. The disease in
all cases so far heard from is sure death.
Yet Its symptoms are not always the
same"
One horse owner who lost three horses
in month said that each of them plainly
showed the sufferings which they expert
enced. while others say that their animals
have died without kick.
Last week Michael London, the east side
horse owner, lost one of his animals that
had eaten a hearty meal and had been
driven a few miles at a slow gait Just three |
hours after it was returned in its stall.
During the past month 1t is said that no /
less than 100 horses have died in this CITY |
from the malady. Not one case has been
reported yet where any owner was certain
that one of his animals revealing symp-
toms of the disease was known TO recover,
