 A big sleigh full of people took ride to Milford, Monday evening, and had jolly time. Fortunately they went before the January thaw set in, as now it is too late for such winter sports. The team belonged to Alfred w. Stacey, who is spending the win ter in Providence. At Milford the party partook of refreshments. The gentlemen of the party were Vernon Bristol, Donald Sammis, Radford B.. Smith, Jr., Vincent Sexton. Ario Walk CT, Charles Desch, Henry Meachen' Harold Lowell, Roger Beers and. Stan ley Meachen. The ladies of the party included Bessie, Ethel and Josephine Houghton, Marjorie Sammis, Mar jorie Haven, Marjorie Silliman, Evelyn Florence and Claribel Lewis, Arlene Curtis, Juinata Hines, Nina Aufford and many others.
 The sidewalks and streets of the town are in a fearful condltlon-flood- ed with water, and in some places an kle deep. No attempt has been made to clear the gutters on Main street, so that the water can run off, and the result is it backs up into frlghttul ponds. The condition of the side walks on Church street and Bruce's s avenue, alongside some Of the not able estates, is simply dlsgraceful. Neither snow plough or shovel has been used.

FAIRFIELD

Complaints having been made that parties were selling liquors without a license search warrants were placed in the hands of Constables Pratt and KoWalskie, who went to the house Of Charles Tyler in the eastern part of the town, near the Easton line of boundary, and just beyond the resi- dence of Frank L. Sherwood The constables, upon making known their errand, were shown into room where quantity of liquor was found, and seized and brought to the center of the town. In the court room where the case was tried yesterday after noon, there was an array of ten bottles and flasks of rum, and five gallon jug of whiskey. MT. Tyler pleaded guiItX and appeared without counsel.
 He claimed that he had orders for the liquors he had been dispensing from various of his neighbors and there were exhibited to Justice Wakeman. It was believed that the orders had been written by Tyler. He also claimed
 that he simply delivered the liquors
 as a mere matter of accommodation,
 and had no further interest in them.
 The inspiration" in the five gallon
 jug was for his own benefit, for he
 admitted that he takes a drink now
 and then himself. He has been in the
 habit of going up to Bridgeport once or twice a week to buy meat and gro- ceries and to fill orders for liquid re- treatments Prosecuting Attorney
 King thought Mr. Tyler was either very foolish or else he told an un- truthful story. The court took the same view of the matter and imposed a fine of $50 and costs, the whole amounting to $71.S5. The father of the young man was present and at ! once paid the f1ne.

Well, after waiting two
weeks, it is finally known who
all the nominees are on the
republican state ticket, which
is another one of the "beau-
ties of the direct primary
law. The two places that
have been in doubt for the
past week were attorney gen.
eral and secretary of state.
After the canvassing boards
in the various counties spent
MANY weary hours in their en-
deavors to arrive at intelli-
gent conclusions from the
muddled up poll books, owing
to the discrepancies between
the totals of first and second
choice votes4 and other
causes, it was finally determ-
ined that ". L. Clifford OF
Lewiston, was nominated fol
secretary of state, beating E.

man, by 553plurality. Tt was

For the first few days after

For the first few days after
the primary election it looked
as though the Boise candi-
dates on the republican state
ticket were going to land all
of the best Offices, but the
final results show that the
nominees are fairly we'll dis
tributed over the state. Boise
gets the treasurer, justice of
the supreme court and state
superintendent of schools. Pc
catello gets the governor,
while the lieutenant governor
halls from Cassia county.
The north gets the con-
gresham, secretary of state,
and auditor. In the event of
republican victory in Noyem-
Der, and there is really no
doubt of that, the north will
have member of all the i'm
portant state boards. Should
the proposed amendment to
the constitution carry in Nov
ember, making the auditor a
member of the state land
board, the north will no long
err have cause to kick about
taxation without representa-
tion." BY the denomination
of McDougal the southeast
retains prominent represent
tation in state affairs. The
southwestern part of the state
is represented by the nominal
ton of Robt. Bell for mine

The staid old state of Maine
has given the nation some
thing to talk about for awhile,
by not only electing a demo-
cratic governor, but two out
of four congressman, and a
democratic Legislature, which
will elect a United States
senator this winter. This is
the first time in % years that
a democratic governor has
been elected in Maine and the
Lord only knows when the
state ever before had a demo-
cratic legislature. The re-
suit of Mondays election
simply paralyzed the leaders
of both parties of that state.
The democrats, as usual, had
been claiming that they would
elect their governor, but they
little dreamed of electing two
congressman and a majority of
the members of the legisla
ture. A rather strange coin :
cidence of the election is,
that Fred W. Plaisted, the
governor-elect, is a son of
Harris M. Plaisted. who was
the last democratic governor
elected in 1882.
The democrats everywhere
are, of course, feeling jubilant
over their victory, and they
are entitled to. The result
also gives them hope of carry
ing other republican strong
holds in November for there
is an old saying, las goes
Maine, so goes the nation. y
Whether or not this will hold
true this year, remains to be
seen. While the democrats
are struggling for victory
this fall, yet deep down in
their hearts, the leaders are
really hoping that it will not
come. This is especially true
regarding the lower house Of
congress. They realize thai
it is a most inopportune time
for them to gain control o.
that body, as it would almost
surely mean that they woulC
lose it again in 1912. To gair
control of the lower house
this year would mean thai
the democrats would be OF
the defensive in the coming
presidential campaign, ano
that is just the position il
(which they do not wish to bt
placed. However, if the PEG
pie have decided that they
want to give the democrat
another chance, we real,
hope they give it to them thi
year, for just as sure as the.
do, they will be ready t.
change back again in 1912.

Most Awkward.

An old, steady going farmer was ac- customed to ride to the market town upon rather bad tempered horse.
 One day his man Bob brought the animal which was especially vicious that morning, to the door, the horse trying to bite and kick and giving a good deal of trouble.
 The farmer mounted the horse with some difficulty and began to walk it out of the yard when Bob, who still entertained ill feeling against the ani- nal, picked up a stone and flung it at him with all his force; out, alas, his aim was cratic, and the missile struck his master on the head.
 Half dazed for moment, the farmer turned slowly in his saddle, and, not suspectng the real cause of the blow, he measured with his eye the horses $ hind hoofs and his own head and, set ting himself in the saddle again, started off with the remark. "Wel}, he allus was an okard beggar. r.'-London ScraDS

An Ancient Industry.

It would be difficult to say where exactly and at what date the manufac- ture of cotton fabrics began. In con- paratively modern times, says Country Life, it has become an industry of i'm portance ill Europe, but 1t has four ished in the east from period too re mote to admit of calculation. The Egyptians certainly used both cotton and linen materials, for fragments of such stuffs have been preserved among the other relics of their ancient civi- lization, and there is much reason to believe that the elaborate draperies of the Assyrians were cotton or muslins finely woven and of delicate texture. In China, too, and India the same kinds of material have been the com, mon wear of the people from time Im memorial. Ii fact, everywhere through out the eas cotton fabrics were pro- duced and used long before the primi- tive Europeans had begun to develop any of the eraces of civilization or in- deed had ceased to be anything but skin clad savages.

SMOKING A PIPE.
1t Is Said to Give the Face a Square
 Jawed Effect.

SaNSo -iSSS'
 .'There is one question l always ask a man who wants a job," remarked the business man who has to hire sev- eral hundred men for different posi- tions each year.
 "The question 1 always ask them is, Do you smoke a pipe much" or course the answers are various. Some of them smoke a pipe a great deal and others not at all.
 .Why do ! ask about the pipe? Well. sot that l have the least interest in their habits or that I have any preju- lice one way or another in the mat Der The reason is that l want to know whether the formation of their lower jaws is natural or acquired.
 "A man with firm lower jaw is al. ways a man of parts and of will. I say always'-anyway, most always. If he does not smoke pipe his square jaw, back near where it hinges on to the upper one, Is natural. If he is pipe smoker the looks are deceiving and l have to judge his caliber some other way.
