MacLennans political status may be doubtful but not

An eastern declares that the heavy Kansas mule
teams bring $500 and the price OF the little army

been considered dear S45 has advanced to $3.50 and
over Perhaps the complaints Of Missouri miners and
Louisiana sugar planters who employ these animals in
considerable numbers and who feel the competition Of

NEWSPAPER FOOTBALLISTS.

Held Banquet at Savin Rock Last
acknowledgements by Many.
A. commotion was created at Savin
Rock last evening when the football
PLAYERS from the New Haven Union
and the Evening Register jointly at
tackled a sumptuous ,repast provided for
them at Times hotel, the repast being
arranged at the expense of the Register
eleven and substitutes as a result of
their losing the Thanksgiving game to
the Union team. The substantial por-
ton of the banquet was thoroughly ap-
preciated by all, as were the "fixins"
and other accessories, served later.
The ost-prandial exercises were re-
plete with enthusiasm. William Young
presided as POSTMASTER and acclaimed
in a loud voice the reasons for the gath
ering and the results of such gatherings.
Alexander Troup, jr., was the next
speaker. He was accorded a great ova-
ton. He requested that his remarks
be not printed. Frank Kenna delivered
rousing speech, thanking the Union
team for not rolling up a larger score
Philip Troup told of the gentleness OF
the recent game and Walter DoWnes
discussed the effect of holding" neal
| Heublein's corner. P. Barnett. ST., was
called upon. but was found among the
missing Others spoke and the event
ended amidst a ''downpour of gooG

THE BRONSON & PLATT co.

Have an Excellent Line Of Goods for
Sale at Low Prices.
The Bronson & Platt Co. are carry
ing one of the finest lines of groceries
in this city and the prices are very rea-
sonable This popular firm sells the
best goods at prices which would only
procure an inferior quality at many
other stores Their motto is not to make
one sale but many, and if the first is
not satisfactory that patronage is lost
on account Of it.
1t would be a wise plan for Christmas
purchasers to visit this store and make
an inspection before going elsewhere.
They can always be assured they will
get fair dealings and their moneys
worth. AS an example of the low prices
prevailing, the price at which the fol-
lowing liquors are sold by the bottle is
cited: Eighty-nine cents will buy bot
tie of any of the following: Hunter Rye
whiskey, Wilson rye whislzey, Usher s
Scotch whiskey Dewar's Scotch whis-
key. Burkes Irish whiskey, Jameson's
/ Dublin whiskey, Golden Wedding whis-
key Heublein's cocktails, Oporto port
Pemartin sherry, Jules Leraux cognac,
| st. Croix rum, Plymouth gin, Sloe gin'
! and Geneva gin.

CHRISTMAS HELP
For Neighbors Through the City Mis-
sion House.

For Neighbors Through the City Mis-
sion House.
The word "neighbor," by its deriva-
ton, means next" The next one
nearest to you is your neighbor The
gift of Christmas time, which is an
expression of kindly feeling between
relatives and friends, may we'll be ex-
tended to reach those who lack the
very friendliness that goes with these
gifts. And if some do not have such
neighbors there are others who know Of
them.
At the City Mission House, No. POI
Orange street, there are known to Rev.
Mr.. Mossman, the missionary pastor,
many to whom he would gladly give a
christmas card marked with a larg-
or smaller amount to be exchanged at
any time during the winter for food,
fuel, clothing. etc, as may be needed.
Those who send funds for this purpose
at any time during the holiday week
can have Christmas card sent in their
name to some of these "neighbors' at
the City Mission, or an order on ones
own marketman or grocer, for any
amount can be given to the City Mis-
sion to be used for destitute people
known there, when most needed.
