CharlesJ J, Minor and Arthur w. Harrison were unanimously nominated for justices of the peace. Mir Wilson in accepting the nomination said:
 '-Gentlemen. it seems to be customary on these occasions to express great surprise and say that you had better nominate someone else, I cannot take it, and I don't wan. it. and SO on. But I shall say nothing of the kind for I am proud to think that while have been but a few years with you have sufficiently gained your esteem to do,me. this honor. I have been told that I am appointed. That is true, and I thank heaven that have the courage to express and stand up for my opinions. Some of these are. that we should have better schooling and more of 1t, for our children. Another is that We should have our town reports printed, for although vote to that effect was passed over year ago, the powers that be do not, have not. or can not have them printed (Cries of. They are afraid to: they dare not) So. gentlemen. if you think I am the right kind of metal to make a wedge to split this twenty-year old log of penuriousness and greed. then am willing to be that wedge. But the wedge is nse- less without hammers. and you, gentle men. are the hammers to drive the wedge home. Gentlemen. I thank you heartily tor your kindness, and this nomination. and thank you again in behalf of the new corners of this town. for tonight show: that you possess the true democratic prIn cirle tn take the stranger by the hand and welcome him. and if he proves a good citi- zen. give bim equal rights and privileges with yourselves"

Cruelty to Animals.

MYSTIC. Oct 30-J. Abner Geer. local agent of the humane society. has just re- ported to State Agent ThralI fearful case of cruelty to animals. A horse belonging. it is said, to Charles Brockaway. was found in a lot in the western part of this town. which hsd evidently suffered i'm tensely before death One of its eyes was hanging out, part of its .braips had been spilled, and there was big gash in the head. A sharp rocK near by showed what had caused death. It Is stated that Brockaway had the horse tied in the barn by its neck and feet for a week. Finally it broke away into the lot where it was found. Here it had nothing to eat or drink. and it is supposed the ami nal ended its own life by beating its brains out on the rock. Neighbors added the fact that while tied in the barn the horse had for food. hay which was most all dirt. Charles H. Lamb of Groton has procured the necessary papers. and Brock away V i'll be prosecuted.

WORTH REMEMBERING.

The fool thinks his death would leave a hole in the world.
 Let love govern your worship. Fear is too closely allied to hate.
 Society may adulate fool, but 1t wishes he was dead just the same.
 The woman who tries to be masculine shows a pitiable degree of ignorance.
 Many n man surveys his head and won ders at wisdom's power of condensation.
 When you have nothing else to worry over, you may Dc sorry that somebody else is hypocrito.
 The nearer a man thinks he is getting to perfection. somehow, the greater the con- tempt he has for himself. Cleveland Plain Dealer
