AN INTERESTING GROUP OF MEN.
 There was an interesting group of law. yers (includipg some of the most prom. inent in the county, by the way), around one of the dinneE. tables at the popula1 New! EngAnd house, on Monday. At the head of the table sat States Attor. ney "Don" Warner, not looking in the least cast down because the prefix o1 Governor is not before his name. The next man to him was energetic and able Jndge of Probate. Huntington of Wood. bury, of the legalfirm of. Huntington < Warner. and who was .stats's attorney for Litchdeld county for 50 many years. His neighbor was. Attorney L. y. Nick erson of Went Cornwall, one of the busi. est of the Litohfield county lawyers. The company also included two we'll known New Milford attorneys, Williams and Mchahon. and Judge George c. Harri. son, the able probate judge of Cornwall, and John ". Brooks of 4Torrington. It was no special gathering, the different men happening to meet as they were in town on court matters.
 \ vERITABLE KLONDIKE.
 Are you . stoakholder or member of the New Milford Anti-Hofse Thief and Burglar Association? If you are, you are indeed . fortunate person, for the association has just cut ar other melon at the rate of $5 share, while last year they declared dividend of $lO . share. And they say 1t only costs soc year for dues! Is 1t any wonder that this asseci. ation is popular with the stockholders ? It is certainly veritable Klondike to the fortunate members of the society If they will only keep this dividend rate up, your correspondents can promise them . good batch of new members.
