W ments ever given in Ninita by
home talent will be presented tOmor-
row night at the academy chapel and
everybody should attend. You will
enjoy pleasant evening at small
cost. 1t was hoped the entertainment
could have been given down town, but
owing to the court house being at pres
ent occupied by the U. S. court, it was
impossible to get a suitable place.
The academy chapel can be better ar
ranged for the tableaux than any 9TH
er hall and better entertainment can
be given there. Don't let the short
walk keep you away: everybody come.

five thousand now and if we can't get
as many more in three years with the
prospective changes we best move and

For your Protection. Catarrh "Cures" or
Tonics for Catarrh in liquid form to be taken
internally, usually contain either Mercury or
Iodide Of Potassa, or both, which are injur-
ious if too long taken. Catarrh is local, not
blood disease, caused by sudden change to
cold or damp weather. 1t starts in the nasal
passages, affecting eyes, ears and throat.
Cold in the head causes excessive flow of
mucus, and, if repeatedly neglected, the re-
suits of catarrh will follow; severe pain in
the head, a roaring sound in the ears, bad
breath, and oftentimes an offensive dis
charge. Theremedy should be quick to allay
Inflammation and heal the membrane. Ely's
Cream Balm is the acknowledged cure for
these troubles and contains no mercury
nor any injurious drug. Price, so cents.

A Double Drowning.

One Of the saddest drowning acct
dents Of the season occurred Wednes-
day evening OF last week, when Mr..
and Mrs. Edward A. Tyler, the host
and hostess OF the Brooks House, Brat.
tleboro, were drowned in the Con-
necticut. They left the Brooks House
at 3 O'Clock Wednesday afternoon and
drove TO their cottage, which is stu.
ated upon an elevation on the river
bank about so feet above the river.
They did not return the next morning
and a message was sent, and it was
learned that nothing had been seen Of
the missing people. A search was
Immediately begun and it resulted in
the finding Of the horse hitched at the
cottage and Mr.. and Mrs. Tyler's
clothes inside. Graphing irons were
at once brought and the river was
dragged but without avail. A diver
from Springfield, Mass, arrived at
5:45 the next night but was able to
work but few minutes on account of
darkness The next morning thor
ough search was made by the diver,
but finally, about noon, the bodies
rose to the surface, at about the same
time and quite distance apart. The
cause OF the drowning is mystery
as both were expert swimmers. The
only explanation that suggests itself is
that one Of them might have been
seized with cramps and the other, in
the work OF rescue, might have been
overcome by over-exertion so both
lost their lives. Mr.. Tyler had been
proprietor Of the Brooks House since
1892 and was married to Miss Leila
Williamson, formerly Of New York,
just six months ago Thursday. Mr..
Tyler was % years old and Mrs. Ty-
Ter was 26.

The shop is located near the saw

About nine o'clock Friday morning
an unsuccessful attempt was made on
the life OF George Webster OF Fletch.
Ell by VIM. Doodey Of Canada, and
Webster is now suffering from two
bullet wounds, either one OF which,
with slight variation, would have
been instantly fatal. His condition,
however, is not considered critical.
The shooting occurred on the Peter
McGettrick place on the shore OF Met.
calf pond, about three and one-half
miles from East Fairfield.
About year ago Webster left ABB
ercorn, P. c., and went to Fletcher, to
live, and the wife Of VIM. Doodey
went with him and has made her
home with him since. Webster's wife
left him some time ago and recently
got bill of divorce.
Two weeks ago Doodey turned up
in East Fairfield and announced that
he had found his runaway wife living
with Geo. Webster and endeavored to
persuade States Attorney Chase to
take some action in the matter. The
latter, however, could find no legal
ground for moving in the case just
then, and did not begin any action.
1t is understood also that Lawyer
Il. S. Upper was bcsought by Doodcy
10 bring suit against Webster for the
alienation of his wife's affections and
that such action was to be brought
Several days ago Webster told the
states attorney that he probably
should not live much longer as he had
heard that Doodey had come down
from Canada, found his wife living
with him, and had threatened to kill
him.
That morning Doodey came to the
Peter McGettrick place, walked coolly
into the shed and there met Webster.
According to one story he deliberately
opened fire upon him with revolver;
according to Doodey's explanation,
Webster kicked him and he shot in
sef-defence.
Two shots were fired, one bullet
striking Webster in the left breast
little above the heart, and the other
striking him in the forehead between
the eyes and glancing to the left I'M
der the skin few inches.
Webster's wounds are not serious
and it is expected that he will recov-
err
As soon as Deputy Sheriff Croft Of
East Fairfield arrived, Doodey was
arrested and taken to the village.
There he was taken to photogra-
piers and kept under guard until
Saturday morning.
He appeared unconcerned and talk
ed freely about the affair while he in
dustrionsly chewed tobacco.
William Doodey had a preliminary
examination before Justice w. II.
Morey at half past ten Saturday morn.
ing. +. S. Upper appeared as his
counsel.
Doodey was bound over for the
county court in the sum Of 81, 900 and,
failing to get bail, was brought to ST.
Adams for confinement in the county
Jail by Deputy Sheriff Croft.
