 Grateful testimony for Doan's Kid ney Pills, published everywhere is of itself convincing evidence of merit. Confirmed testimony forms still stronger evidence. Years ago, citizen of this locality gratefully ao- knowledged the benefit derived from Doan's Kidney Pills. The statement is now confirmed-the proof more convincing. Gases of this kind are plentiful in the work of Doan's Kid ney Pills the record is unique.
 G. B. Storey, "A Spring St., Willi- mantic, Conn.,. says: T was so bad as the result of kidney complaint that I was unable to work. A dull pain across my kidneys annoyed me con- stantly and I couldn't stoop or straight en without sharp twinges darting through me. The kidney secretions were also unnatural and caused me annoyance. Doan's Kidney Pills rid me of the trouble. willingly con firm all that was said in their praise by one of my family some years ago. 7

 Joseph Ettor. one of the organizers for the Independent Workers of the World, has been with us. Ettor attained notoriety in connection with the Lawrence strike. He spoke in English to fair sized audience at the Italians hall near the fair grounds Saturday evening. A larger number of people attended meeting at the same place Sunday afternoon when he talked to them in Italian. The real purpose of his visit does not appear, but many are of the opinion that he came to size up the situation and ascertain the sentiment of the people relative to forming local branch of the organization he represents. No demonstrations attended his coming, and his speeches were not received with any great amount of enthusiasm. At the close of his remarks he invited questions from any in his audiences desiring to be enlightened upon labor matters, but very few of his hearers asked for information. Industrial conditions are unusually good, here at present, and there appears to be no particular dissatisfaction among the employees in any of the mills. The town has never experienced any seri- ous labor troubles, and a large per- centage of the people are property owners. This is especially true of the Italians, who have been the most active in the acquisition of real estate of any of the foreign born residents.

 The ball game last Saturday with the Trumps of Manchester broke up in the ninth inning owing to decision of the umpire which the visitors took exceptions to. The score was 5 to 4 at the time, but as the locals had three on it looked a little cloudy. The difference of opinion arose over an attempt of Webber to bunt on the thid strike. Umpire Miller was firm in his opinion and declared the game forfeited, Up to the point where trouble occurred the game had been good contest, and regret is felt that the game could not have been finished.
 Many Connecticut postmasters have had their salaries changed by order of the post office department, in the annual adjustment of postmasters' compensation, which has just been announced. Usually there are great many more increases of such salaries than are decreases, but this year, owing to the falling off in postal business and the revenues from the postal service, there are about as many decreases as there arc increases. The adjustment affects only post masters of the presidential classes. The salary of the local postmaster is increased from $2,OOO to $2, 100. The salary at Eagleville was increased from $1, 200 to $1 400.
