VALUABLE MAPS,

THE BEE has been favored by George H. Walker & Co.,, of Boston, Mass, pub fishers of atlases and maps, with new map of Connecticut. These maps show all the city and town names and boun- diaries, railroads and railroad stations, all the public roads, postoffiees and vil- lage names, all streams, ponds, hills, swamps, coast names, etc. The maps are printed in sections. The eastern section shows Hartford and the town of Guilford, all of the Connecticut river which is in Connecticut, and all east of the Rhode Island line. The west ern section shows the remainder of the state. A carefully compiled index of the entire state will be published with each section, so that any town, railroad station, pond, stream, shore name or hill can be found at once on the map, thus saving long and vexatious delays and possible disappointment. Each section will be issued, with all the index, in coy CTS for pocket use, and the two sections will be mounted together, making a complete wall map. The western sec tion is particularly clear and valuable. These maps will doubtless have large sale in the state.

A PILGRIMAGE TO wARAMAUG LAKE.

4 party of eight Eewtown young peo- pie, chaperoned by Mrs A. P. Smith, wis tied Lake Waramaug on Saturdar, re- turning Monday morning. They were entertained at the home of Prof E. A. Hayes on the north side of the lake which is situated at one of the most slightly points. The entire party were enthusiastic over the beauty of the re- zion, the fine drive of eight miles round the lake being much enjoyed. The par ty had the first sail on the lake for the season, on a small steam launch. A trip was taken of 10 on 12 miles on the lake, which was not the least enjoyed feature of the trip. The party went via Hawleyville and the Shepaug to New Preston station, where they were met by a team by Prof Hayes, and drive of five miles was enjoyed. The ladies of the party, while enjoying the romantic scenery of the Shepaug valley, could not appreciate the sudden curves and turns, which makes the little road so fa- nous. Twas too much like an ocean voyage.

Story of Gratitude.
Six Physicians, Two Clairvoyants
 and One Christian Scientist
Fail to Help Mrs N. K. Whitney of
 Hillsboro Bridge, N. H.

HILLsBORo BRIDGE, N.H.-There is nc better known nor more highly respected resident of this village than Mrs N. k.
 Whitney. Her long and serious illness and her remarkable recovery of health through the aid of Dr David Kennedy's favorite remedy, has made that medicine a he ,essity in every New Hampshire household.
 Mrs Whitney, in speaking about her sickn ass, said, 'I have been gradually failing in health for number of years, and was told by my physicians that was in the last stages of Bright's disease. l had been under the treatment at various times, of six physicians, two clairvoy- ants and one Christian scientist, but re. ceived no benefit from any of them. l had given up all hope of ever being cured. had no faith in the advertised medi- cines, and it seemed to me that every means of ever being cured had been tried except to use Dr kennedy's s favorite rem edy, which had been recommended. As a last resort 1 purchased a bottle; when I had used it I felt no better, but contin- ued it's use, and by the time 1 had used the second bottle was greatly improved, and from that on l improved daily. and it was not long belong I was able to be about the house, doing my regular house. hold duties.
 No tongue can tell how I suffered for the three years before I used Favorite Remedy, My agr is 56, and I now weigh 5 pounds more than ever did. Favorl" Remedy restored m" tn health and strength, ard if any one wi-hrs to call upon or write ne 1 will gladly tell them what this great medicine will do for them if afflicted as l vas
 As q prominent physician recently said: Any one suffering from kidney or urinary troubles, rheumatism, dyspepsia or any uric or tactic acid disease, it will cure them if their disease is within the reach of medicine"

TASHUA.

Mrs Venie Bradley has returned to Bridgeport from visit with her cousin, Mrs l.. w. Searles in New York. While there she had the pleasure of witnessing from the windows of l.. G. Burnham's, Fifth avenue, the review of the 7th regi- ment by the Infauta Eulalia on the plaza
 in front of the hotel, which was truly a fine sight. Then she had thrilling eX- perience of New York fire about mid- night, June g.. The household was awakened by cries of fire and directly two men came rushing down from the roof, bursting open the doors and calling ''the whole place is going and you will all have to get out of the house." For about two hours intense excitement, with valuables packed ready to fly at an in stant's warning, then, when the flames were subdued, all were mortified to learn that five people had lost their lives, all the people sleeping on the top floor, had perished. Taking it all in all the coun- try people are to be congratulated on their safe homes and quiet lives. The country seems very lovely in contrast with the heat, dust and other inconven- fences of a large city.
