Case Of Dlphtheria-AD Imposing Ger
emony Personal Notes.

Persons living on High and Central
streets, near the Postoftice, were kept up
till an early hour Sunday morning bya
quarrel between some of their neighbors.
II was hard to ascertain the origin OF
the midnight fracas, but quarrelsome
wife and a drunken husband were the
principal participants. During the melee
the mans violin, worth over 800, was
smashed to pieces, the wife and the young
children were driven out half naked, and
finally, about 2 a. m., the unvanquished
hero departed.
A second edition OF Saturday evenings
pandemonium was fairly started last
night, but a good neighbor stepped In
and the man being somewhat sober,
quiet was soon established.
An Imposing Ceremony.
The grand novenns In honor OF st. Ann
st the Church of Our Lady OF the Sacred
Heart was brought to a close yesterday
by very imposing ceremony.
In the morning, at the Z o'clock mass,
the church was filled by the married wo-
men of the congregation and all ap-
preached the Holy Table. After Vespers,
In the afternoon, the closing ceremony
was held. A sermon was made by Rev.
Father Beaudet and a great number of
new members were admitted with the st.
AIMS Society.
Home Again.
Rev. A. n. Mongenais has returned
from Canada, where he had gone to spend
his annual vacation. He visited his

Weather Too Warm.
The feast OF the Assumption of the
Blessed Virgin Mary takes place on the
18th of August. Yesterday Ii was an
nounced In the French Church that the
ordinary novenna preparatory to this
feast would be dispensed with this year,
the weather being too warm for the young
ladies.
Assessment Completed.
The Assessors for the ire district have
completed their work and Collector Rey-
nolds has commenced his task. The as
| sessment this year is f5, 095, ,325 real and
| 81 ,37S, 400 personal; this is an increase of
fl70, ,S35 In real estate and a decrease of
~ 800 In personal property, making the
tc.sl Increase I'm the valuation fl61 ,035.
The tax OF the Fsrwell Worsted Co. is ac-
countsole for part OF this. The Assessors
In the fre district have to take the last
figures of the Assessors of the town, and
they reduce the tax Of this company from
tSs 900 real and $4,000 personal, to $4,000
real and s25, 900 personal. This reduction
was obligatory upon the part of the fire
district, for they followed the figures of
the town by law, but the town Assessors
will probably raise on the taxes of this
firm this year.
One Case OF Diphtheris.
Health Officer Mslo has quarantined
a house at Saylesville where there Is a
ease OF dipbtheria. This is the first case
that has been reported In some time and

all four houses now under quarantine.

tagious diseases. All nuisanoes are being
abated ss soon as reported.
