was no truor Democrat in Connecticut
than Mr.. Kennedy, and all the members
had the highest personal respect for him.
Mr. Davis then announced his resignation

Especial. 1.-The recent rain was one Of the
heaviest that has fallen I'm our section

pour was great enough to result in car

mills.
The fishing season has begun in this

the markets from our watercourse. The
behring's appear to be In excellent condi-
ton, and the fishermen are In hopes OF
successful catch.
The local-option movement in Northum-
berland seems to have met with general
public favor. and enough signatures have
been obtained to the petition TO order
the election on the question. few OF
our most prominent colored voters are
favoring the movement and VIII cast
their votes In favor of II. While the ma
iority OF the colored voters Will oppose

to carry the election. The election Will
