 Considerable local interest is shown in the city election in New Haven, which takes place to-day The candi- dates for mayor are Studley, the pres ent mayor, and Kinney, democrat. The latter is a retired glass manufactures. On account of the great Harmony pre- vailing in the democratic forces that party expects it's candidate to win. | Mayor Studley has not the backing he had in the last election, not because of any particular cause or disunion in his party. but circumstances took many of his leading followers and strong work CTS away from town when he most needed them. The prospect is decided ly favorable to the democratic candi- date. Messrs Troup and Osborne,
 who have not been very good political friends for twenty years, have been stumping the wards hand in hand and all the democratic forces seem united. A young man named Oarbine, resi- dent of Naugatuck, applied for his final papers of citizenship from Judge Cowell in the district court to-day. He ! was accompanied by Fred Walsh, a democratic deputy registrar of voters. Carbine has been in the country since
 he was il years of age, yet he had no one to testify to this except an uncle living in Meriden. But he had papers
 showing that he went to school in this country. These would not suffice, however, and judgment was reserved
 in the case. The political parties in the rubber town are buckling on their armor for the annual election, which takes place on the first Monday in May. The nominations for warden have not yet been made. but it is said they will be Schaffer, republican, the present holder of that office, and James Kin ney, democratic burgess.
 The Upson Jewelry Go would suggest to all the young men who took their ad- vice about the engagement ring. that
 when they get ready to furnish the
 home they should pay them another visit and select their tableware, etc.
 and save something to put into the wedding present, which we shall be glad to furnish. It will be just like finding the latter.
