DAVID TuRKINGToN's DEATH.

DAVID TURKINGTON'S s DEATH.
 Morris, Conn, April 18.-The many summer visitors from New Haven, who come to this place for their summer outing, will remember with pleasure David Turkington, whose neighborly greeting and acquaintance aided in n2 small way to their happiness. Uncle David,' as so many loved to call him, was wrested from bed of yearly pain on Wednesday, morning, the 11th. MT. Burlington was taken i'll early in the fall, but only for a few weeks was he confined to the house and but short time to his bed. In the month of March he suffered from shock which para lyzed his tongue and the pathetic part of it was his utter inability to utter syllable to his family, only by motion ing.
 MT. Turkington was born in the town of Bedding and was seventy seven years of age There was family of twelve children; U. these there are now living but three brothers, John Turking ton of Stamford, Richard and William Huntington of this town. David Tur kington leaves a widow and two sons, Frank and Arthur. A daughter, Mrs. Ella Judd, died but few years ago. MT Turkington was an extensive dealer in cattle for many years and was wide ly known in business circles. As citi. zen he held many local offices. As a friend and neighbor the sorrow is deep and universal at his death He was buried on Friday, the 18th. There was a large concourse of not only relatives, Nut friends from near and far who came as true mourners.

NEWS ABOUT STAMPS.

An innovation in the postal service
which is sure to be of great conven-
ience is plan lately adopted of fur
nishing stamps in little books, with
wax sheets between them. The gov
ernment is to charge one cent addi-
tional to the amount Of stamps con-
tanned therein. and it is now estimat-
ed that the profit on these books will
amount to 100000 per annum. 1t is also
estimated that the sum paid for the
Private Revenue Stamps placed over
the top Of the bottles containing Hos
letters Bitters very nearly equals this.
The Bltters is reliable remedy for
constipation. indigestion, dyspepsia,
biliousness, liver and kidney troubles.
1t may be depended upon to cure stom-
ach disorders, having done so for the
past fifty years.

Within a few days the contract Of the
o. r. & N. Co.. with Dodwell & Co.
for the maintenance Of a line OF steam
ers between Portland and the Orient
win expire. says the Journal of Com
merce OF San Francisco. The company
has been negotiating for steamers to
take the place Of those now on the
line. but owing to the big demand for
steamers for transport service, has
been delayed in securing vessels, so
that the new line win not be ready to
take up the business before October.
Three steamers have already been se-
cured. but as they will not be available
in time to prevent break in the SER
vice Dodwell & Co. will operate the
line for at least sixty days longer, both
the Monmouthshire and the Braemar
coming back again in the old line. The
new steamers which will replace the
old line will be 5O00-ton carriers. newly
built and equipped with the latest i'm
provements FOR rapid and economical
handling Of freight. While slightly
larger than the Braemar and Mogul
and other vessels Of that class, they are
so constructed that they will draw no
more water than those vessels. and ac-
cordingly no delay will be experienced
in getting up and down the river.
