led his state ticket to success in the
election, Tuesday, by a plurality of
1908 over Melbert B. Cary of Ridge
field, the democratic candidate for
governor. With every town in the
state heard from, the total vote for
governor stood: Chamberlain, S5,357,
Cary, SO, 1904. Two years ago the plur-
ality OF Gov Mclean over Mr. Bronson,
his democratic rival, was IA, 4O1. The
feature Of the election for governor

New Haven city where the republican
ticket was elected by plurality of 718,
overcoming the democratic plurality
of two wears ago of 4,1S9. Following

LOCAL AFFAIRS.
A WINTER COURSE OF LECTURES.
THOSE WHO HAVE ATTENDED THE
CLERGYMEN's COURSE IN OTHER
YEARS WILL BE GLAD TO KNOW THAT
IT IS PROPOSED TO CONTINUE THEM.
THE SCHEDULE OF DATES.


A. NJ, Tibbetts, principal of the
Newtown High school, met with the
local clergymen on Monday afternoO n
of this week at the Congregational
parsonage, and a course of lectures
was arranged to be given during the
coming winter. Without something
of this sort the winter evenings would
drag their long and weary length
through the dull months, and there
would be little to relieve the monotony.
These lectures in the last three years
that they have been given have been
a means for getting the people out and
getting them together; and it has been
a pleasure to see the gatherings in the
various districts giving attentive hear
aing to the discussion OF great themes.
1t Is hoped that the SERVICES Of these
OuSly may meet with large response
from the public, and so this worthy
effort may be woven as a conspicuous
feature In NeWtOWn'S higher life.
The following is the schedule of dates
and districts: December 9, 1902, A. M.
