There was lively trotting contest
in Long Hill Hast Monday. Mrs John
Frank drove her favorite horse, "Huck
Penney" from Bridgeport, when a
Long Hill citizen tried to pass her
with his speedy bay. Chuck Penney
was determined that no horse should
pass him, so buckling down to business
he went flying. Mrs Frank having a
lame side was somewhat scared but
drove the horse under the Long Hill
church sheds and brought him to a
standstill, giving the Long Hill man
the road. ''Huck Penney" after
breathing satisfaction over his victory,
went home in good order.

his assistant took position in the
shade of the trees near brigade head
quarters, the lists prepared by the var
lous companies were revealed, and
the work OF paying off the members of
the Guard commenced. Privates re-
eelyed pay for ten days service at the
rate of dollar day. Companies that
were required to move first in order to
make railroad connections, were first
to receive their pay. Considerable time
was consumed. necessarily, in dealing
with neariy one thousand men. but il
was one occasion during the encamp-
ment when there were few, If any, alb
sentees.
The guards were removed and guard
lines abolished about o'clock. From
every company came the complaint of
missing articles but this was not unus-
ual. No very serious losses were re-
ported, as the men did not carry with
them any articles of great value

Several local people have endeavored
to have her deliver a lecture here, but
it is not known whether she will speak

here to talk. Just what she means by
busy is not clear. but from what has
been intimated there may be some live
