While one of Mir Hoaford,s horses, with harness on but unattached to wagon, was drinking from 8 trough, the snap to pole strap became fastened to rod which holds the trough together and as the horse stepped back, he took the trough with him. This sudden ap- bondage to his harness 80 alarmed the horse that he ran beyond the iron bridge at the foot of Lake Waramaug, nearly

THE REPUBLICAN CAUCUS.

Hon H. O. Averill and G. T. Sperry from this part of Washington attend as delegates, this week, the Republican State convention in New Haven. If the gubernatorial choice rested on these gen. tlemen's votes we fear the chairman would still have to cast the deciding ballot, for one is justly called a''Warner'' man as is tbe other for Mclean. The lines political have been drawn closely here, this year, and had it not been for the magnanimity of Hon H. o. Averill in caucus, last week, the bitterness be- tween factions might be more intensely felt.

WARREN.

THE LATE MRS CATHARINE FOREsTELLE.
 A lady of rare sweetness of character and life passed away in the death of Mrs Catharine Forestelle, mother of Repre- sentative William Forestelle, early in August. She was an especial favorite with the children, always having sunny smile and word for each one. For over 50 years she had resided in Warren. In her own home she will be especially missed, where her noble qualities of mind and heart were better appreciated. She is survived by two sons, Representa- tive William Forestelle of Warren and Patrick Forestelle of Shelton, and three daughters, Mrs M. Fl. Rodgers and Mrs M. Fitch of Bridgeport and Mrs Lizzie Fay of Sharon. Mrs Forestelle was a loyal member of the Catholic church and in recent years her home had been the headquarters of the various priests who came to Warren to instruct the children. In her last hours the saeraments of the church were administered to her by her pastor, Rev John Lee, of Sharon. Sure. iy the memory of such a woman is blessed.
