 Big Welcome for Girl of My Dreams. After a weekend visit to Woon- socket, the Girl of My Dreams com pany, which played with such favor at the Bradley theatre in Putnam, came evening as the largest musical show that has ever appeared there and won instant favor from the large audience. There were times when the company crowded the rather small stage but this detracted little from the clever
 presentation of the piece. Recovered from a recent cold Miss Viola Cain as Lucy Medders, the demure an,S winsome Quaker girl, gave even !. more charming interpretation of her song numbers than she did at Put nam. Quaker Talk, The Girl Who Wouldn't Spoon, The Girl of My Dreams, and best of all, Dr. Tinkle Tinker, were numbers in which the ap-
 plause she received was very generous.

BROOKLYN REPUBLICAN
Except That John M. Bessette, Demo. crat, Was Re-eIeeted Tax Collector.

Brooklyn republicans were victorious at the annual town meeting Monday, electing their entire ticket excepting William Touchette, candidate for tax collector, who was defeated 151 to 124 by John M Bessette, democratic holder of the office for the past decade. There was special effort made to defeat BesSette for the office, but he not only held his own party strength, but drew from the republicans as well, getting more votes than any man on either ticket
 The result of the balloting follows, the candidates elected being starred:
 Democratic--Assesso Daniel Smith 120; board of relief, Nelson Gauthier 122, Hugh German 126*; selectmen, AL bert B. Webb 130, John Fitzgerald 133". auditor, Henry M.

RHEUMATISM
Physician Believes a Genuine Remedy for the Disease
 Has Been Found.

Rheuma, the wonderful rheumatism remedy sold by Lee Sz Osgood and all druggists, gives quicker and moru lasting relief than other remedies cost ing many times as much.
 Rheuma gets at once into the blood and puriffes it, allowing it to feed freely into the veins and arteries and passes the deadly poisonous secre- ions into the bowels and kidneys from which they are quickly thrown off in a natural. healthy way.
 Read what q reputable physician says about Rheumas T have made a most careful investigation of the form ula employed in the manufacture of Rheuma, and I heartily recommend ii as remedy for all forms of rheurna- tism, sout, and complications arising from neglect of these diseases in their early stages. On the basis of the formula used alone. I find Rheuma far in advance of the methods gener- ally employed in the treatment ot rheumatism, and altogether different in composition from the remedies us. ually prescribed"
 This should give any sufferer from | rheumatism confidence in trying Rheurna. It is so inexpensive yo1 cannot afford to do without it.

DEMOCRATIC WATERLOO.
Town of kiIlinsdy Gives Them Worst Defeat in History-Prosressive Did t-ToWn Goes No License,

Democratic candidates were about
 totally annihilated in the political rev
 olution that Killingly voters enacted
 at the polls Monday. Out of a whole
 list Of democratic candidates only two
 were elected, George M. Filling and AL
 colt D. Sayles,l both constables The
 party lost all of it's candidates for se-
 lectmen and will not be represented on
 the board during the coming year and
 all other candidates on the list. The
 party has never been so badly defeat
 ed in the history of Killingly
 This was due to the triumphant rise
 of the progressive party, the candi-
 dates of which will replace them on
 the various boards of the town. The
 progressives get two out of the board
 of five selectmen and elected other of f1cers as indicated by stars in the de- tailed vote. Their victory came as a great surprise and knocks the demo- cratic and republican leaders off their feet. The progresSiveS cast 239 votes against 283 for the republicans and 1SS for the democrats. Elation does not begin to describe the feelings of the progressives Monday night and they celebrated by spending some of their good money for a serenade here by the East Killingly drum corps led by
 King George Jacques.
 Another big surprise in Mondays election was on the license question Killingly changing from license to mo- | license after three years by vote ot 591 to 562. This also proved a shock to a great many of the voters who had figured the town to remain in the license column. The town tickets were the worst split in years and eight hours were required to conclude the work ot the counters. Alcott D. Sayles, dem- ocratic candidate for selectman may ask for a recount as he was only two votes behind Burns, who won on the progressive ticket. The result of the vote throughout the town is a.s fol- lows the winning candidates indicated by stars:

The election was featured by Mrs. Elvira Barbers candidacy for the school committee, she receiving 270 votes, which. how ever, was not enough to win.
