Hunters CareIessness May Have Caused Woodland Fires - Death of Charles Packer.

The MIMI. girls met with Miss Mar guerite Chapman Monday evening. There was a social hour with refresh ments, etc.
 Damaging Fires.
 The scarcity of water and the forest fires are the principal items of inter est now. One of the fires broke out Tuesday south of the home Of Napo- leon Dufresne and but for his ener- getic efforts there would have been a big loss of wood. The fire burned all the afternoon. The Flat Rock fire kept burning stubbornly all day Tuesday h spite of the fact that Charles Hopkins and Charles Phillips both carried au- totruck loads of men to fight it. Fire Warden Mathewson was kept busy and Selectman J. c. Gal1Gp also had, his hands full. There was a big fire n the north part of the town the same day. Jason Lathrop and George c. Dean are among the heavy losers in the Flat Rock fire. Either hunters are unusually careless this fall or there is something strange about so many fires starting at the same time
 Misdireeted Energy. An old resident of Flat Rock said in the years gone by that the best way some men could help at fire was by ergetic they scattered the fire and set new ones as fast as the others could put 1t out.
 Death of Charles Packer,
 Charles Packer, a son of the late Daniel Packer, of Packerville, died in Brooklyn, N. Y- of Brights disease Monday.
 There was a number of railroad fires the first of the week. but they were put out before much damage was done.

NO REASON FOR IT
When Norwich Citizens Show a Way.

There can be no reason why any reader of this who suffers the tor lures of an aching back, the annoy ance of urinary disorders, the pains and dangers of kidney ills will fail to heed the words of 6. neighbor who has founds relief. Read what a Nor wich citizen says: n.
 Mrs. Mary Nef. 465 Main St., Nor wich. says: For many years one of my family was subject to attacks of kidney complaint He suffered from pains across his loins and at times could scarcely get about on account Of his back being so stiff and lame. The kidney secretions were irregular in passage and often contained sed- iment. Deans Kidney Pills, procured at N D. Sevin & Sons Drug Store, proved of benef1tI from the first and soon every symptom of kidney com- piaint disappeared. I willingly con- firm all said in praise of Doan's Kid ney Pills in the statemene I gave a few years ago. Nothing has occurred to change. my high opinion of this remedy"

The council called to consider the ordination, or reordinstion, of Rev. Andrew J. Morris, acting pastor of the Union Baptist church, adjourned with out taking definite action, by reason of the absence of Q majority of the gen. eral council attending the Baptist con- vention in Providence. Mir. Morris was ordained, so he says, in 1882, in North Carolina, and he gives the names of some members of the council. but since then the church in which he was or dained has gone out of business, and he has been unable to get into con1- munication with any of the council. He was advised to make special effort to secure a duplicate of his ordina> ton papers and if he could not do this to get a certificate from some mem Der of the council to the effect that he had been regularly ordained.
 Mir. Morris desires to be recognized as an ordained Baptist minister, but he is unable to provide the required ere dentials. He has been in the employ of the Anderson family, of the Watch Hill section for seventeen years, and the certificate of his ordination was burned when the Anderson cottage was destroyed by fire several years ago. He has preached to the colored Bap- lists of Westerly during the summer season for many years, and during the winters, since he assumed charge Of the Union Baptist church. he has returned to Westerly once 8 month to ofdciate at communion service.

STAFFORD SPRINGS
Closing Day of Agricultural Fair Was ChiIdren's Day-Democrats Nomi- nate WaIbridge and o'connelI for Representatives.


 The 45th annual lair of the Stafford Springs Agricultural society closed on Wednesday after a successful three days run. Although the attendance Wednesday was not as large as on either of the two previous days, 1t was sufficient to swell the receipts far beyond the expenses incurred, and when the bills are all paid there will be nice balance in favor of the asso- citation. The weatherman handed out the best he had and 1t was good enouEn-just right for a fair. not too hot nor too cold. There was just enough chill in the air Wednesday to be bracing.
 America was out in fuii force. The public schools opened Wednesday morning, but the attendance was so slim that it was deemed advisable to have but one session, so the schools closed at noon.
 Busy Midway.
 The track was kept we'll watered with a four-horse watering cart, but the midway was very dusty. It was as busy a midway as ever seen at a Stafford fair, and this is going some considering what has been here in for mer years The games of chance were unusually numerous, but the chance was usually on the side of the ope.- ators. Many of the fakirs pulled up stakes and got out early Wednesday morning, but there were enough left to make things interesting.
 The exhibit of cattle this year was considerably larger than usual, and there was more competition in the va rious classes than there has been for several years.
