HORACE JOHNSON
 IS HANDICAPPED
Middle Haddam Weather Prophet Had
 Announced an Arctic Winter.

To be a prophet with honor at 8S is the felicity of Uncle Horace Johnson of Middle Haddam on the Connecticut river, says the New York bosom. Skat- CTS have fitted by on its sheeted bos om from Windsor. above Hartford, slear to Saybrook Point, distance of sixty miles. Voluntown, over near the Rhode Island line, has had a tenn perature of 26 degrees below zero; Canton, up in the Pennington valley has reported 20 degrees below; and memories of old fashioned winters are ingloriously mute.
 It may be that Uncle Horaee's planetary method of forecasting wealth CT by judicious mingling of asuon- omy, meteorology and mathematics, from the top of his barn is not con vincins, but when he is right the cred it is his, and when he is wrong no body cares. Did he not predict the blizzard of 1888; also the great Con ne2ticut earthquake that wound up all the eight-day clocks in the state2 He added measurably to his fame by an noUncing as long ago as last Septem- Der an Arctic winter this year fer New England.
 The returns from New England for the month Of January are now in, and if the modest frame house in which Uncle Horace Johnson makes the weather does not become a shrine there's no spell in genius. He is Yindicated from Fort Kent to Noank.

As the Hartford auxiliary towns committee had not succeeded in get ting the Willimantdc churches to take up the movement, the Norwich com n.4ttee was now at work and hoped te report results soon.
 Nothing Startling Expected.
 On social service, Rev. c. A. Nor throp reported returns received from ii out of the IS churches. No one need wait with bated breath for the re- turns, as nothing of a shocking nature had been shown yet in the statistics received.
 On missions, Rev G. H. Ewing re- ported the coming of Rev. James Nor cross at the Central Baptist church on the afternoon of the last Sunday this month, to speak upon Baptist Missions.
 Principal TirreiI to Lead Discussion.
 Chairman Stanton also gave notice of boys conference to be held Feb 23 at Trinity Methodist Episcopal church, at which Principal Tirrell of the Academy will lead the discussion. He also laid emphasis upon the coming here Friday night of Ernest K. Coul- ter, clerk of the children's court, New York.
 After the singing of the hymn, The Son of God Goes Forth to War, Chair man Browning introduced General Sec retary Hubert, who is to be one of the five men to come here at the time of the three day campaign in March.
 General Secretary Hubert Speaks.
 AIr. Hubert said he was glad to come to Norwich, fors it seemed to be the place that did things, and the success attained just now in 8 big business en- terprise agugued wei l for the big things that are ahead in the Men and Religion Movement. It is more than three day campaign, for ti lays out work for the churches for ike years to come, and is a different think from an old-time revival Its purpose is to enlist men in a vital. definite, particu lar service for men in extending the 1 kingdom of God. It is a movement founded on sane common sense, and ] like a physician, it is first to make a 1 diagnosis of the case through the So- ciaI survey committee and then to ap- ply the sremedy. The survey will l show where men can work. The inn portant thing now Is to see that the
 men in large numbers are enlisted to i attend the institutes of the three day campaign, and the churches should get | to work on this at once. The church | best represented in attendance will be i the one to experience the best re- wards
 | IJo oJ,-;aoJ 4ha r,,a,, to hold tbapo- | selves open minded towards the things ! which are to be presented, and to 1 stand by each other in prayer, with i out which all the effort would be
 fruitless. He predicted great blessings l to come from the metings.
 MT. Hubert answered several induir- 1 ies after his talk, and the meeting con- i cluded with the benediction pro- l nounced bby Rev. H. T. Arnold

TO TEST PACKAGES.
New Office Gives County SeaIer Pow CT to Enter Stores and Examine Bundle Goods.

Much local discussion has been heard regarding the fact that the new county sealer of weights and measures who is to be appointed by the county com missioners will, if the reading of the law as passed by the last session of the legislature be carried out, be com pelled to trundle ton weight of par aphernalia around the county on his back, or by some means of conveyance, while on his regular tour of inspec- tion, says the Middletown Sun.
 Although this fact has proven of un- usual interest to many, another DOT tiOn of the new law will cause still greater comment when it becomes known that the powers of the new county sealer entitle him to enter any store whatsoever where bundles are sold or where goods are disposed of in package form.
 This means that the new county official may enter any butter store where this article of food is on sale in pound prints. and examine the pack age to ascertain whether the weight is as stated He may also enter a package store and seize a wine bottle labeled a quart, and measure the con tents to ascertain possible fraud. Al though these are only few instances of the powers that he will be invested with, it may be said that his powers will be almost unlimited, so far as entering a place of business and ex- amining the stock is concerned.
 The creation of this new office, il
 will be remembered, was the outcome of the reform movement in which il
 was asserted that the present day
 high cost of living is due in meas ure to the fact that the people have ! been receiving less in their purchase: of package goods than was represent. ed to them and it is with 8 view tC
 curtailing this alleged fraud, that th' office of county sealer of weights ana 1 measures was instituted.
 Many persons have expressed th' | opinion of the city and town sealers of weights and measures cover tn, | field sufficiently satisfactory, and tn, newly created office Is an unnecessary i expense. The persons who advOcat, | the new office say that this will brinl 1 revenue to the state from towns Wh, | have no sealer of weights and meas | ures and who would be reached onl! | through the new official The power | of the new office are invested in tn
 chief of the state police who is em | powered to appoint deputy in eacl 1 county.

BOARD OF RELIEF NOT
 VER9URDENED THIS YEAR.
A Number of Taxpayers Have Called Upon Them, But There Have Been Few Strenuous Kicks.

is having a much easier time than the New London board, and thus far, while there have been quite a number of taxpayers before them to inquire about their lists and values, there have been no very strenuous kicks. The board will have 10 make some changes, 1t is thought, in behalf of some of the non residents in bbusiness here, as they claim they are in the list too high, the average amount carried in business being much lower than they are as sessed for.
 It is probable, however, that when the board of relief completes it's work that the grand list will not show any greet change, oen way or the other.
