The fine weather of yesterday was CON-
duoive to church going and there was a
large attendance at all the churches. Rev.

service the communion was celebrated and

Rev. D. NJ. James addressed the meeting
of the Y. M. O. A. yesterday afternoon
upon the rather unique subject: Sunday
| in Chicago-Take Your Choice and Pay as
You Co." Like ell of Mr.. James' talks, it
was interesting and Instructive.
Two especially fine entertainments are to
be given in Fair Haven during the next
| few days, and all who can find the time
should attend both. On Thursday evening
appear at the Second Congregational
church in one of their most interesting pro-
grams of songs, and Miss Avice Boxall, q
celebrated harpist, will assist. The
tickets for this superb entertain
mont are only fifty cents. On Mon
day evening of next week Judge l..
P. Deming will appear at the Grand ave-
nue. Baptist church and will give his cele-
brated lecture on 1.-TWO Months In Central
America" with 100 magnificent stereopti-
con pictures from photographs taken by
himself during recent tonr in that coun-
try. This Ia highly interesting and in
struetive lecture and the tickets are only
% cents.
henry Barnes, Burton W. Bradley and
Henry I. Barnes made q very successful
duoking trip to the Thimble islands, re-
turning with forty birds This is one of
most successful trips to the islands this
season.
In few days politics will be pretty live
ly in the Quinnipiac wards. To be sure 1t
is only the town and couneilmanic else
tions that are pending, but there is enough
material for plenty of excitement, which
can be got up at very short notice in Fair
Haven politics. Major T. F. Callahan an
nounces that he will not be q candidate for
alderman again. James Lsnders, who has
been elected to that Office once, is likely to
| be the democratic candidate. He would
made strong vote, but the republicans
| ought to be able to nominate a candidate tt
win in this republican Eleventh ward
In the Twelfth, where the republi
cans seldom have a fighting show
Alderman Conner would be a candidate
but isssnot at all anxious. Councilman A
K. Brown thinks he should be named fol-
| promotion. The Cedar Hill section arr
talking about putting up Councilman Nc
Ginty, and James Toole, contractor, hs
also been mentioned. AS there are sc
many candidates very likely the democrats
will deem it expedient to renominate Mr.
Connor. The Twelfth ward demccrat
also think that they ought to have a mar
on the board of selectmen to look after tn
interests of that part of the town.
