But there are other heroes than
those who get the medals.
There are countless thousands OF the

These are heroes and heroines just
the same. They do not whine. They
expect no medals. They ask for neith-

Many woman goes thru life un-

Accident

Pete Christensen, who was in
jured last week, is out of the hos
pital and has nearly recovered.
While attempting to adjust some
part of the harness while on his
way to town with a load of grain,
he was kicked by one of the
horses and thrown down in front
of the wheel which struck him on
the forehead. He was rendered
unconscious and lay in the road
until found by a passerby some
time later. When brought to the
hospital it looked as though he
were badly hurt, but his recovery
was very rapid and he was soon
out of the hospital.

Took Own Life

J. J. Merry, who lived in this
city few years ago and moved
from here to Wahpeton and from
there to Fargo, committed sui
eide at Medina in the western
part .of the state Wednesday,
October 3rd. The cause OF the
rash act is a mystery. About a
year ago Mr.. Merry took the
liquor cure and it might have
been that he had gone back to
drinking, which caused him to
take the step which he did. The
remains were taken to James
town for burial.
Mr.. Merry has been employed
for number of years as agent
for the German Insurance Co.
Mrs. Merry is a daughter OF
Mr.. Wilcox, of the Broadlawn
Farm, east of this city.

Death By Typhoid.

Miss Sadie Trinborn, who came
here from Randall, Mimi, and
who was employed at the Palace
Hotel, died Saturday morning,
Oct. 9th, of typhoid fever. The
young lady had been here but
three weeks when she was taken
with the fever. Her sister, Miss
Lizzie, was the only relative pres
ent at the time of her death, ar
rived Friday night and was at
her bedside when death came.
All that medical skill and kind
and willing hands could do was
done, and Mr.. and Mrs. Loney
are certainly deserving of much
credit for the interest taken in
caring for this homeless girl.
The body was taken to Ran
dali, MINI, Monday morning for
interment.

in honor of Mr.. and Mrs. J. @.

was composed Of the pioneer

furnished entertainment and it
would seem, from the enthusiasm
displayed and the various stunts
performed, that Father Time had
really turned backward in his
flight. A delicious luncheon was
served, after which the guests
departed for their homes, all
agreeing that Mr.. and Mrs.
Lang were royal entertainers.
The out of town guests were

Their programmes were very interesting and consisted of legerdemain, perform ing canaries, farces, and, Us chief attraction, Mrs. Vail in what is termed "somniloquism. While in this hypnotic state she did some startling, mysterious and marvellous things, chief among which was the calling of the names of people ill the audience and reading their thoughts or reading questions they had written on pieces of paper and placed in their pockets.
 Among the questions prepared Friday evening was one by Allyn Fuller of Ca- naan, reading "will it be Hughes or Hearst?' Quick as flash came the answer, Hearst by all means" The announcement was greeted by misses by the republicans. MT. Vail announced that 15 per cent. of Mrs. Vail's pre- dctions are incorrect and the republicans contend that this prediction is one which goes to make up that percentage. The democrats believe 1t true because she answered a large number of other questions with unfailing accuracy and told of many things that have happened in and near Canaan in recent years, things that those in the audience were cognizant of but which Mrs. Vail could not have known about.

FALLS VILLAGE WATER POWER

Will Probably be Utilized to Operate
 Electric Railroads in the Naugatuck
 Valley. 5
 The Connecticut Power company, the purchasers of the water water privileges at Falls Village, is an allied company of the Connecticut Railway and Lighting Company, which company has lines, railways and power plants in different parts of the state. It is understood to be the intention of this company to erect a plant at Falls Village and transmit the power to different points in the Nauga- tuck valley where it will be used for the operation of trolley cars. It is not ex- pected that Falls Village will, in the near future, at any rate, reap much benefit from the location of this plant, as in all probability not more than five or six men will be employedi in it's operation. The company will use the power for its own purposes and will have none for sale to industries that might locate near it.

SOME LARGE, PUMPKINS.
Reports From Various Parts of the County Indicate that We have had Remarkably Favorable Weather for Them This Season.


 County Indicate that We have had
 Remarkably Favorable Weather for
 Them This Season.
 This season appears to have been n particularly favorable one for the growth of pumpkins. Grocer Roth of Falls Village boaght one day before yes terday, that his using as boudoir for his dog while the rabies scare is on.
 On Monday s. B. Jewett of sharon found he was one COW short when he rounded up the herd at milking time. He and the hired man hunted for her for an hour and finally found her in tho cornfield where she had eaten her way into pumpkin and stood inside con- tentedly chewing her cud.
 E. s. Roberts of East Canaan has one SO large that he had to put sideboards on his garden to prevent it's growing over into his neighbors' yards. He's going to have it made into pies and distributed among the voters in all parts of the county on election day. He's a candi- date for county treasurer, you know.
 Will Stone over in Salisbury had one so large that he had to call on his neigh bors to load it onto stone boat and borrowed a pair of oxen to draw it in doors.
 Gibson Gillette of Lime Rock was in town yesterday, buying giant powder. He says pumpkins are so large down on his farm that he has to blast 'em to pieces before he and "Harve" can get them through the barn doors.
 These don't compare much, though, with those on Hon. l.. J. Nickerson's farm at West Cornwall. They're build. ing a new house, you know, and they have pumpkin they are thinking of moving into and staying until the house is done.
 Uncle Ezra Perkins says this is the best year for pumpkins he remembers since the time back in the 70's when the Pompoonick town hall burned. They couldn't build another one and get 1t ready in time for election so they just scooped the insides out of two pumpkins put them together and had plenty of room.
 Will Kasson of Southfield is thinking some of placing one on runners, putting a stone inside it and using 1t for stage between Southfield, Mill River and Ga naan this winter.

Returns 1t to Owner Who lntimates
 That he Intended to Steal It.
 The other day a brakeman oL the Central New England railroad, while passing through car, noticed hand bag in onr of the seats. On opening it he found it contained nearly $500 in bills and other valuab&es- A lady who had just alighted from the train. came rush. ing into the car and surmizing that she might be the owner of the bag, the brakeman inqshred what she was in search of. Ske sand she had lost hand bag and after assuring himself that 1t was really the property of the lady, he gave 1t to her.
 The f.lady~ grabbed the bag, inti- mated that he intended to steal it and, without a word of thanks, left the car while the brakeman listened to the swish of silk, watched the sparkle of the diamonds and tried to remember what he once heard someone say about virtue being its own reward.
