Charles Bartholdus played in bad
luck day before yesterday. He traded
horses with Lee Smith, paying diff
ference in money. Yesterday John
SelSor came to town, saw the animal
and proved the same to be his prop
erty, thus leaving Mr.. Bartholdus
minus his horse and the money. Mr..
Smith had recently traded for the
horse from man named Watkins
and Mr.. Bartholdus feels sure that
both he and Smith will not be any the
loser. rs Watkins will undoubtedly
protect them.

THE CHRISTMAS FESTIVITIES.

 The Christmas service entitled Christ
 mas Bells, ; will be held in the church, Christmas eve, or Monday evening. Ac- tive preparations are in progress to make 1t grand entertainment. It will doubt less be go. The angels and the shep-
 herds kept the Saviour's birthday. Why should not we, for whom the Wonderful came to our earth as little babe and laid in the manager at Bethlehem? He was raised at Nazareth. and grew to man. hood, increasing in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man. About the person of Jesus of Nazareth the hot test of the battle between the champions
 and the opponents of Christianity has ragged. This very hour, millions would die for him. Let us exa1t the Christ of God. His words and His death have, from the first, been like leaven cast into
 the man of humanity. He alone has made religion spiritual instead of cere- monial and external, universal instead of
 local. He confirmed the doctrine of i'm.
 mortality and scattered abroad the germs
 of heavenly life. Let us make much of ! Christmas, which the Christian world agree to call the birth day of the Saviour
 of the world.

BURGLARS WILL KEEP OUT OF WOOD
 BURY.
 Burglars are about our village again. Several suspicious characters were watched and preparations to receive them were made in various places. One night during the week they broke into the North church, endeavored to kindle a fire, scattered matches and made prep arations for sojourn. Some time dur ing the night they tried to break into F. R. Smith's blacksmith shop, probably to get tools with which to assail Mir Daw- sons safe, but were interrupted by MT Srnith, when pistol shots were fired by them. They then took themselves away. It will hardly be safe for them to pursue l their vocation about here any longer: Messrs Huntington, Warner and L. P, Eastman were at Winsted, last week, iu the case of Bradley vs. Dakin.
 The ladies of St Paul's parish had 8 very pleasant supper and tableaux at the residence of Dr l.. Y. Ketcham, last Thursday evening. After the supper the program prepared by the committee on entertainments was carried out in the large garret with credit to all concerned Receipts were about $25.

 GET SOME PAINT AND NEW BOARDS.
 We find that some of our school dis tricts are growing patriotic and demand ing flag. Let the good work go on. But before too much patriotism is wasted let them make sure that their schoolhouses are in good repair and will not shame "Old Glory" when she un- furls her stars and stripes to the breezes, over their badly battered and weather stained outsides. When you get that flag, my brothers, get some paint and new boards.

The Congregational Sunday school hold service Christmas eve and will have stereopticon show at the same time instead of Christmas tree. THE TOBACCO CROP. The recent warm, damp weather has enabled the tobacco men to get most of 1 this years crop ready for the buyers. It is splendid crop and ought to bring good prices.
 The tobacco packed in Watson's shoI by three of our busy and enterprisinR farmers has all been sold at what are considered fair prices for this season. l Rents new sewers has had it's first fair trial and it was 8 decided success during the first hard rain and genera thaw.
 The trouble about the water rates is set tied. A committee of conference met the water company's directors and it wal agreed that the old rates were to remain Iexcept for family use, which was in creased from $6 to $7 a year.
 The farmers are again thinking O packing their tobacco, because. the prices offered by the buyers seem al together too small for the crop raised I this year.
