the formation of Taft club here, but for some reason or other the matter has not been definitely decided upon. The republicans of Wallingford, or majority of them, believe that Will liam H. Taft is the best available can didate for president and several in- formal conferences have been held regarding the organization of local Taft c = All the neighboring cities, New 1.~ en, Meriden, Hartford, and many others have these clubs. and it is hoped that before long Wallingford will have joined the ranks. One of the things which is said to stand in the way of this club is the present re- publican club having headquarters in Wallace block. This seems to be much of an obstacle as the the two which are of kindred spirit could easily, by the the consent of the members of both clubs, occupy the same rooms. Mir. Taft's wide exper- fence, strength of character, rever- ence for law and knowledge of nation al and international affairs mark him particularly as the man to succeed Mir. Roosevelt, and throughout the land clubs, are being formed to aid in bringing about his nomination. Let Wallingfofd get in line.

MILFORD.
Special Journal Courier News Service,


 Milford, Feb s.--The Parish house was crowded to its doors last Thursday evening, il being the closing of the Rain Bow bszar
 The entertainment was by far the best of the series There were more people present. The entertainment went far ahead of any thing in this line seen at any fair in Milford in many years.
 There were piano solos by Miss Der tha Beach Cornwall: vocal solos by Miss Maude Wilcox: a character sketch in black face by Mrs Cora Lockwood of West Haven, whose singing and dancing showed a vast amount of training. She was in excellent voice, and her every move was full of grace. She made decided hit and was the recipient of large bouquet of carne- tions at the end of her act.
 The real show of ,he evening was the appearance of The Comedy Four" which was made up of the Hon. James "A. Perry as Aunt Mandy Johnson. MT. W. H. Chadderton as Uncle Daniel Johnson; EX-sheriff George F. Mallory as Alexander Green and Mir. George Watt as Eliza Green. The scene open ed showing Uncle Daniel in his log cabin home, surrounded by his fam fly. To make the scene more reaIis- tic, they had the assistance. of six bright colored children ranging in age from six to ten years. The make up" of the Comedy Four was true to life in every detail No colored act has ever been seen on any stage here in years, iH sucn true to life Southern character and costumes. Their songs. dances and jokes were arranged bv Mir. Chadderton, and were not only bright and up to date, but well rendered. Mir. Perry and Mr. Mallory made a great hit in their characters. and Mr. Watt chowed his agility as a dancer. They closed their act with one of the old time walk grounds, which included the song Carry the News to Mary" In this act Mr. Chadderton dances one of the old timers. Good Bye, my Honey am gone. The whole act of the four was so much enjoyed that it was with regret that they let them conclude their part of the entertainment. Miss Rose Tibbals conducted the music for all the plantation songs and dances The fair closed late in the evening with dancing.
