EAGLES $3O,OO0
 SUIT TO JURY

In the important $30,0O0 action of the Eagles against the New Haven road, the testimony was concluded yesterday before Judge Bennett in the New Haven Superior court. The case will go to the jury on Tuesday. The defense took up much of the time yesterday in showing that in the matter of disposing of the so-called : Eagles Island," near Chapel street, at the time the "Cut'' work was go- ing on, it acted under the authority of the railroad commissioners, that there was no malice in the railroads s course, as claimed, and the greatest amount of precaution was taken against annoying the plaintiff while the "Cut" work was going on. On the other hand the plaintiffs have shown a complete bill of costs, and damages claimed to have been suf- fered in consequence of the railroad imDrOVement

JANUARY WARM
 BUT VERY WET
Total Precipitation Was 3.80 Inches More Than
 the Average for 36 Years.

The maximum was 50 above and the minimum one below zero. A January day has been known to show a temperature of 14 below.

Stuck In the Mud.

A few days ago, so runs the story,
M. M. Stroeter phoned from Cam
bridge to S. S. Peterson at this place
saying the clutch of his machine had
burned out and asking Swan to come
with all possible speed to his assis-
lance. Mr.. Peterson hurried to the
scene in his touring car and there
upon discovered that not a con-
founded thing was the matter with the
machine, but it had become stuck in
a mud hole and a farmers team
which Mr.. Stroeter had hired was
unable to pull it out. "That's Joke
on me-" said Swan, "but you don't
catch me again, Mark. !" And Mark
laughed so uproariously at the joke
he had perpetrated that his feet
slipped and he sat down in the mud.

The POTATO MARKET 4
Movement of Murphys Slow at This
Point Twenty Cars Shipped
Out During the Week.
Farmers Taking Advantage of Fine
Weather to Get the Potatoes
Out of the Ground.

During the past week the local po-
tato market has shown signs of more
life, although many farmers are hold
ing their stock for higher prices. The
warehouses are receiving stock daily
but not in large quantities. AS to
the shipments they are light, not more
than 20 cars having left this point
during the week ending yesterday.
The light demand, say the buyers, is
the result of the big crops in the
eastern states-potatoes from there
are being shipped to Chicago and
Kansas City in large quantities.
Prices have fuctuated during the
week from go cents up to IS cents
80 to IS cents being the ruling
prices today. These prices are fairly
good for this part of the year.
The crop of late potatoes in this
vicinity, while below the average,
promises to be fairly good one and
the quality in many of the fields is ex-
cellent. Farmers are at this time
busily engaged in digging their pota-
toes-taking advantage of the favor
able weather which prevails.

UNITED IN WEDL0CK

ton, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. O. B.
Newton. Rev. j. o. Fisher of the Con-
.gregational church was the officiating

About 40 guests witnessed the cere-
mony.
The young people were married
beneath an arch of evergreens, golden
rod and autumn leaves, Mrs. o. M.
Radeke playing a wedding march and
Mildred Newton acting in the capacity
of ring bearer, carrying the ring in
the heart of a large red rose. Pre-.

Miss Newton wore a gown of cream
colored Lansdowne with silk lace and

Big Profits in Northern Minnesota Farms.
The success of Charles N. Howe of
Aitkin, winner of numerous prizes at
the Minnesota state fair, is an un-
answerable argument in favor of
better farming methods. He won the
sweepstakes on all kinds of corn, first
premium on the best ten ears of white
cap dent corn, first premium on yell
low dent corn, first place among the
Aitkin county exhibitors, took premi-
ums on bundle grains and third place
with lbs exhibit of varieties of bundle
and sheaf grains. And his success,
he maintains, was all due to cultiva-
ton.
"You can use all the long-drawn-
names you want to, but they mean
plain cultivation, he said. "I own
and work thirty-two acres in Aitkin
county and I make just as good a
living as the farmers around me who
own 100 acres or more. I make a
good living for a family of five, 60 to
all your conservation congresses and
state fairs, and have all the money I
want. I cultivated that field of corn
that won the prize thirty-two times,
and even cultivate my hay"
Could anything show more plainly
the value OF intelligent, systematic
and persistent effort on the farm:
Mr.. Howe, owning small farm in
Aitkin county, district chat many
supposed too far north to be best
adapted to raising prize-winniug
corn, by attention to business and in
telligent effort distanced all competi-
tors. He not only has demonstrated
the prime Importance of thorough cul.
tivation, but has called attention to
the possibilities of northern Minneso.
ia as an agricultural district. There
are thousands of forty-acre tracts that
are ready to yield good living and
a substantial cash surplus to those
who will settle in Northern Minnesota
and follow Mr.. Howe's example,

NIoravian Mission Services.

Sunday and Monday, October
and 3, the Moravian church will hold
it's third annual mission festival.
Services on Sunday will be held in
the Sellhorn school house, north OF
town, beginning at 10 o'clock in the
morning, and at 2:3O O'Clock in the
afternoon. The morning service will
be in German, while that of the after.
noon will be in English. At these ser.
vices Rev. Theodore Rienke, for six
years missionary among the Mulattos
and Indians of the Mosquito coast OF
Nicaragua, Central America, will tell
of the mission work of the Moravian
church in various parts of the world,
and will also relate some of his per.
sonal experiences in the tropics.
Special offerings for missions will be
taken up. Every one is cordially
invited.
On Monday evening, October, 3, at
1870 O'Clock, there will be an illustrat-
ed lecture on Moravian mission work
in Nyassaland, German East Central
Africa. This lecture will be given in
the Swedish Lutheran church in
Princeton, and, while the object will
be to tell of Gods work in an inter-
esting way, the service will be for
divine worship to the glory of God,
and not merely for amusement or en-.
tertainment. All who are interested
in the work of foreign missions should
avail themselves of this opportunity
to hear and see what God is doing
for the African heathen. Almost
one hundred lantern slides will be
exhibited, showing types of natives,
modes of travel, equatorial Africa
scenery, native arts and crafts, and
the progress made thus far in external
surroundings. There will be no
charge for admission and all are
cordially invited. A voluntary Offer
ing will be taken up to cover expenses
and to increase the funds of the mis-
sion board.
