poLITIcs IN ENGLAND.

In letter received by DR.. G. III.
Hare this week Col. Swain, u. 8. Con.
sui at Southampton, tells OF his OK
periences in the recent English cam
paign, and we wager he fairly itched
TO have part in the fun. He says:
Dear Dr. Hare:--We have been out
TO several political meetings here the
past ten days, and as reminder OF
the good and busy past In the OLD
town, when the political song work Of
the only really good party ON earth
was 80 largely in your direction,
send you some song sheets. The
Johnny Comes Marching Home" one
was used at a 5000 meeting, and they
did make that and all other songs"go.
A college choir of fifty led the sing.
ing and It was the first best treat on
such lines we have mad since leaving
the shores OF good old America. II
brought up so many Of the grand meet
ings Of the past, in the days OF red
hot campaigning, land we were happy
we have taken in all sorts OF meet
ings in England Ut zee how the thing
was done.
with kindest regards 10 Mrs. Hare
I am, yours very truly,

HINMAN.--Ailen Lorenzo Human
was born IN the village OF Rlchland,
oswego county, New York, Sept ~,
1927. He belonged to long.liyed
family, his father and grandfather
having lived To the good old age OF
almost one hundred years, as men
measure time. His younger life was
spent on New York farm November
4, 1862, he was married TO Lucinda
Eaton. Three years later they came
10 Livingston county, Ills, to make a
home. At that time the country In
Illinois was not as promising as IL IL
today, and In 1864 they Joined col.
ony Of hundred families from their
old home In New York who we're NOV.
ing TO Yankton, Dakota. AT that time
most OF the state was still the native
home OF the buffalo and the Indian,
who did not hesitate to make known
TO the white settlers that they we're
Welcome intruders. Mrs. Human
says that what Is now the fair city OF
Yankton was then but village Of
log cabins, with the exception OF a
few state buildings. II was then far
on the western frontier, pioneer
town, where two or more families
found comfort and plenty under the
same roof. Mr.. Human took claim
two and one.half miles from Yank'
ton and lived on II for Ave years, I'M
I'll he had received a complete title
TO II. He remained In Yankton in the
real estate and collection business
until 1896. when himself and wife
paid visit on Christmas day TO theii
daughter, Mrs. w. J.. Ennis, In oska
Iooga. They were both 30 pleased
with this city that they determined
TO make their home here. Mr.. Hin
man has been employed most Of thu
time as a salesman and collector foi
the g. w. Bollinger music store II
this city. He was a quiet man, and
loved his home so much that he sci
dom allowed mis- business affairs u
keep him long away from his family
Internal troubles developed in his
last sickness that would not yield Y
medical skin, and on January a.
! 1906, after short illness, his spiri
went back to God, who gave II, cloa
ing an earthly life OF more than Y
years. In 1902 Mr.. and Mrs. HinmaI
celebrated their golden wedding
One Of the doubIy valued presents 0
that occasion which the faithful wifi
and mother now exhibits is gol'
watch and chain, a present from he
appreciatiye husband, after ift,
! years OF companionship and servic
together. When their Dakota horn
was unbroken II consisted Of fou

CAUGHT MAPPING.

The payment of $5,O0O to Lawyers Percy s. Bryant and Arthur P. Egg gleston for services as counsel for the East Hartford fire district in the dam age hearing before the committee of the superior court on the defiection of water from the Salmon brook to the districts reservoir, has stirred Up Q storm of protest among the taxpayers of the town.
 At a special meeting of the voters of the fire district held last Monday even- ing, Mir. Bryant, a member of the com mission, offered typewritten motion authorizing the fire district commits sion to borrow a sum not exceeding $20,000 to pay the award of the com mittee and the expenses incurred. At that time the amount of the damage award was known to be $10,165, but no information of the other bills was giv- en at the time,
 A meeting was held Tuesday but MT. Bryant refrained from saying anything about his own bill. Commissioner Bryant was asked to hold up s1,874 of his bill until the regular meeting on August 8, but he preferred not to.
 Many East Hartford citizens feel that the lawyers bill is exorbitant, and recall former incident when the late Henry L. Goodwin applied for an in- junction when Case, Bryant & Case presented a bill for $5,OOO fer services in the toll bridge case. The injunction was afterwards made permanent. Cit- izens regret their failure to compel the present bill to be presented to the vot- CTS for consideration, and say they have been taught lesson.
 P. s. Bryant and Arthur F. Eggles- ton are not business partners and the bill, which was receipted by MT. Bry- ant, does not show the division of the amount between them.
