Providence, r. April 3.-The annual
spring state campaign ends tomorrow,
when the voters will have the opportunl-
ty of deciding which of the five candi-
dates for the Gubernatorial chair will
be made happy. man. This campaign
has, in some respects been remarkable
one. For years and years Rhode Island
has supported only three parties. Two
new ones have sprung up in existence.
Their ad herents call themselves Socia-
list Lab orers and Populists.
The Republicans claim and the
Democrats are inclined to concede that
the legislature will be Republican in
grand committee. This will practically
insure the selection of George Pea body
Wetmore as senator next June. There
is talk of vote purchasing in the coun-
try and the districts will be carefully
watched. The Prohibitionists will un-
dou btedly poll larger vote than last
year. The Populists and Socialists
favor parties will cut no figure.

RuTlAND'S NEW MAYOR.

Success, Says Mayor Kingsley.

Success, Says Mayor Kingsley.
RUTLAND, March 10.-Gen. J.. G. Kings
ley, second mayor Of this city, was inaugur-
ated this evening. In his inaugural the
new mayor says in part:
1t is but one short year since Rutland be
came city. The change from town to city
did not receive the unanimous approval of
our citizens Some thought the change too
radical and might result i'll increased taxa
ton; many had sentimental feeling for the
old town Of Rutland and were not in favor
of departing from it, Others thought it an
experiment that might prove disastrous TO
onr future prosperity; all were honest and
sincere in their convictions.
Notwithstanding these objections, ! be
lieve there are few, if any, who would now
recommend returning TO the old dual system
of town and village government. Our new
municipal government has proved success
beyond the expectations of its most sanguine
advocates The thanks of every taxpayer
in this city are due the mayor and'noard Of
aldermen for the year past for the interest
they have taken and time given to
make it IA success. But few under
stand what was required to put the
new municipal government in operation or
how much has been accomplished in SO short
space of time. | approve of everything
that has been commenced in the line OF
permanent improvements, and shall most
heartily cooperate with YOU in carrying for
ward all advanced ideas in this direction.
Concerning the financial condition of the
city Mayor Kingsley says;
The financial question is generally very
difficult one to solve and may prove 50 il

ate figures for all the statements herein con

recommend the employment on our pub

tax payers of this city. If any contract
work be done | would have the contractor,
as far as possible and practicable, agree to
employ our laboring men and mechanics. I
favor fair wages and payments weekly. BF
taking this course we snail all receive nutu-
al benefit and protect our home industry.
Mayor Kingsley speaks rs follows III re-
gard to the fire department: y radical
change has been made iii this department.
! The old volunteer force has been abolished
and a paid system has taken its place. rs
Rutland was always prond of its splendid

Rehearsing the Wedding Ceremony.

One of the oldest customs in modern so
ciety is that of conducting rehearsal of
the wedding ceremony in church. 1t gives
a curiously theatrical air to the event and
surely does something to lessen the So
lemnity Of what should be the most sacred
moment in two lives. This preliminary
practice no doubt causes the actual cere-
mony to proceed with smartness sug-
gestive of machinery, but there Is loss
In sentiment and in religious feeling. A
little more simplicity in the arrangements
would obviate the necessity of rehearsals.
What with maids of honor and flower
girls, to say nothing of bridesmaids and
all the other adjuncts some modern we'd
iings arc more like stage functions than
anything else.
A. recent bride, it is said, who carefully
rehearsed the ceremony forgot that the
ring had been left upon her finger, and
when the moment arrived for the final
gift of the golden circlet it refused to
come off without violent effort, during
which the officiating clergyman looked
Mortified and the congregation laughed.

Friday, Dec. 28.
City of Augusta VS.. town of Randolph
F. j. c. Little for plaintiffs; Spear, An
drews Whitney for defendants. This is
an action to recover tor pauper supplies
amounting to S149, alleged to have been
furnished to Dennis Parent and family of
wife and five children, in the winter of
1893. The family supplied resided on
Cushnoc Heights in this city, and on the
night of Feb. 20, 1898, the house in which
they lived was consumed by fire and the
inmates escaped, part of them with only
their night clothes, losing all their house
hold goods and saving but meagre per-
tion Of clothing.
The plaintiffs claim that they were ap-
piled to for aid, by Mr.. Parent and upon
Investigating, found the family in distress
and in immediate need of relief; that they
furnished clothing, bedding, and some
household furniture which it is claimed
was necessary.
The defendants in the first place deny
that there was any application for sup
plies as pauper supplies, to the overseers
of the poor of the plaintiff city, and there
fore plaintiffs cannot recover. They also
say that if there was such application,
then proper investigation would have
disclosed that Parent and family were not
in such condition as warranted the furn-
ishing of goods by plaintiffs, because, as
they say, Parent WIS an able-bodied man
and his credit good, even then running a
grocery account; that three of his children
were more than 15 years of age and two of
them at least at work at that time; that
their more pressing needs were relieved
by the neighbors, the next morning after
the fire But that if it were found that
plaintiffs were justified in furnishing any
supplies, then they had far exceeded the
legal limit, both as to quantity and price.
The defendants admit that the family
had its pauper settlement in their town
and that they are liable to pay whatever
the plaintiffs were justified in furnishing
The case was tried before the judge with
out the Intervention of a jury. The
judge reserved his decision.
Adjourned until morning at $50.
