That Unfortunate Mistake.

4 It has been discovered where the
mistake was made by which George
Lynn was deprived Of the nomination
that had been voted him by the re-
cent republican county convention.
held at HazeltOn. It will be remem-
-bered that the reballot was taken be-
cause Of the fact that u half-vOte tO,,
much appeared In the total. The bal
lots were kept after each vote. Those
used In voting for state's-attorney
candidate are In the possession OF IS
well-known Braddock gentleman. An
examination Of them has shown that
the mistake occurred by some one Of
those voting half-ticket marking
the fraction ON the back .instead Of
on the face Of his ticket. twill thus
be seen that the ballot was legal. and
correct In every way, and that Mg.
Lynn was really the nominee, the er-
ror being III the count. There Is no
ground, however, for believing that .

PAWTUXET.

The gypsy bazaar and lawn festival OF
the Mission Workers OF Trinity chapel
was opened last night on the lawn at the
corner OF Commercial and Sheldon streets
and proved very pretty affair. Most of
the "gypsies" were from Pawturet and
Edgewood and they occupied the tents
and booths that were placed on the lawn
and drove bargains with the skill OF the
rowing gypsies that live In vans.
The attendance was excellent and the
occasion was enlivened with music that
proved very enjoyable.
There are four oanoeists who started
from here on Tuesday somewhere near
the headwaters Of the Pswcatuck river
now unless their plans have miscarried
considerably. The party comprised
Messrs Hicks. Roth and Lord OF the
Pawtuxet Canoe club and Mr.. Brown OF
the NarraGansett Boat club and they
were we'll supplied with camp utensils
and baggage when they went up the river
to Norwood last Tuesday. The party went
by train from there 20 Kingston and
then went up the southern river. II Is in
tended by them to explore the Queens
river also.
Tonight a meeting OF the executive
committee OF the Pawtuxet Old Home
and Improvement association will be held
in the church at 9 o'clock
