DAMAGES AND BENEFITS EVEN UP
Verdict By sheriffs Jury in MontviIIe cass--ew= Wins By Re-estimate-A lpha Mills Were Damaged $1O0 Eut Benefited Equal Amount.

which was occasioned by surface water which flowed into the gutter of the highway from the adjoining premises of the same company. They find that the Alpha Mills company received spe- ciaI benefits to the amount of S100. and also sustained special damages to the amount of $100. and accordingly make no assessment either way.
 The finding is signed by the six members of the jury. George o. Stead, foreman. Reuben s. Bartlett, clerk, Daniel Preston, all of Norwich, Elmer E. Vincent of Stonington and George A. Haskell of Griswold. The ease grew out of a change in grade in the highway by which the Alpha Mills company sued for damages and were awarded $1,000 by a commission con sisting of Cyrus G. Beckwith of New London. A. A. Beckwith and Ebenezer Allen of Norwich. On an appeal by tine selectmen of the town of Montvilie the verdict was set aside by a judge oi the superior. court, who ordered the dama ages/to be .re-estimated by a sher- if's jury. They held their first hearing on July 18th.

Try Hokara, a pure and simple skin food, that is guaran . teed to contain no grease or acids and which is so cleanly that it does not soil the linen.
 Its power to instantly relieve any irritation of the skin and make 1t soui white and beautiful. is almost mirac- ulous.
 Not only are minor skin troubles like pimples. blackheads. acne, bar ber's itch. etc. quickly cured. but the worst ulcers or cases of salt rheum or eczema are cleansed and healed by this wonderful skin food.
 In order that any one may try Ho- kara at small expense, The Lee & Os- good Co. are selling a liberal sized jar at 25c and in addition guarantee to refund the money if the treatment does not do all that is claimed for it Larger size 50 cents.

Unreliable Prophets.

Two years ago, the opponents of Mr.
Davenport said his election would near
a wide open town." ga saloon on ev.
cry corner, and that crime and law.
lessness would reign supreme. On the
contrary, Cresco is now more free from
the disreputable element and illegal
liquor selling than for many years past,
and lawbreakers brought before the
mayor have been shown no favors but
have been treated with exact justice.
This year Mr.. Davenport's opponents
make another prediction and claim that
his election means an extravagant ad-
ministration of the city's affairs and q
larger debt. Is it not reasonable to
assume that this years predictions are
as incorrect as those of last year, es-
.pecially when we take into considera-
ton the fact that Mr.. Davenport's ad-
ministration of two years paid off one
water bond while it took his predeces-
sors (Wm. Kellow and Dave Evans
among them) ten years to pay two.
