Attorney Hamilton retained 5 per which the law allows, of the money collected from ex-Sheriff Scott on the Ed Boss iudgment. If C3 c3 the commissioners are so particularly anxious that exact right should be done about that matter they might institute an inquiry and find out how it came that ex-County Attorney Powell received about S30 for collecting the same money and reconcile it with the fact Men's Sack Suits worth $7.00.

Think of it! a little more than six months ago the state of Kansas became parent of the movement, and can in that short time show a membership of more than 100,000. Tennessee and North Carolina show a membership equal to that of our own state, while Missouri can double it and Texas can triple it, and this is not all thousands AND ALL OTHER GOODS EQUALLY AS LOW. LOCAL NOTES.

The bust of Shakespeary after bavins occupied a conspicuous position in Fox's front window, being the wonder and admiration of passers-by and equaling in appearance the bust of the young woman who, made of the same material, wears an advertising corset for Beach Putt, was removed from its resting place at the dead hour of night one evening last week, and placed on a shelf over the stage where it now camly surveys the empty chairs. It cost $11 cold cash, and although the immoital bard of Avon has no advantage in point of cost over the busts of Wagner and Goethe, which also adorn the opera house, we are glad our late manager gave Bill the advantage over the other two in point of location. He sits high and drj over all competitors for the literary honors of the world, and it must have been some such thought as this which determined our late manager in giving him so advantageous a location with respect to the other two galoots. There were twenty seven very long faces visible on the streets Tuesday morning when it was announced that Tom Correll had been appointed marshal and Henry Benne street commissioner. Ben is going to be mayor himself this year and run things to suit himself, and has made such appointments, as he thinks will best serve the City interests, notwithstanding the state law says that old soldiers shall be given the preference by the appointing power.

The boys ought to be content with the appointment of Comrade Smith as city attorney.

Let the good work go on. While in Haddam last Friday we were informed that Buck Campbell would issue the regular monthly edition of the "Haddam City Weekly Times'' this week. Buck is taking things easy since he sold the Clipper, and thinks one issue in a month is sufficient for a second paper in Haddam. The "Haddam City Weekly Times'y is issued once a month, and the Haddam Clipper once a week the last named paper seems to be on top. -J.
