Woodruff officiated, assisted by Rev Mr Potter of Bantam, both making ap propriate remarks. William G. Brins- made conducted the singing. The school children attended in a body, bringing a beautiful pillow of flowers bearing the words, "Our Schoolmate." Many other handsome flowers were laid upon and abont the casket. The following verses were read : WRITTEN AT THE DEATH OF HARRY J. KIL BORN, OCTOBER 27, 1896, BY HIS BROTHER. Asleep in death, dear brother Oh ! God. Thou knowest best. Have mercy on lather and mother, May they, by Thee, he blessed. Teach us to say, as our Saviour did, Thy will, not mine, be done." Help us to respond to Thy bid. That we may meet Harry beyond. Always in life his home he loved, And close to his mother was ever lound. In death his soul ascends above Where joy and love abound. Harry, dear Harry, forever gone To partake ol eternal reward. May we ever remember the good he has done And with God's help govern ourselves in accord. Among those present from out of town were D. P. Kilborn and Mr and Mrs M. Tracy of Waterbury, Mr and Mrs Robert Holcomb of Southington, Miss Minnie E. Marsh cf Torrington and Mr and Mrs W. Pendleton of Winsted. The remains were interred in .the ceme tery here. GRANGE INTERESTS. The program for the lecturer's hour for the next regular Grange meeting,No vember 13, will consist of "humorous readings and recitations in response to roll call" and every member is especially requested to be present, provided with a humorous selection, to assist in making the evening as funny as possible.

The Btranger who visits the fine old town of Litchfield, is sure before leaving to have his attention drawn to the jewelry establishment of E. L. Pratt, as it is in deed the finest store the village boasts, Mr Pratt may be called a hustler, for no slow-going man would have thought it possible that Litchfield should have jewelry store, larger and more elegantly stocked than anything In the Naugatnck valley. Mr Pratt bad the store arrang ed to perfection, when along came the fire of last winter, and laid the block he oc cupied in ashes, while the many beauti ful goods in bis store helped to add fuel to the flames, or melted and added to the pile of debris in the cellar. But not dis heartened, he engaged a store in the new and Improved block erected by his uncle and in the spring time opened up again. His quarters are now handsomer even than before. - The cases are of rich de sign, and everything is as a live business man of to-day would wish it. A repre sentative of The Bee who dropped in the other day, was shown some ot the beau. tiful goods carried. Here was a tray, 10x12 inches, which contained $1000 worth of diamond rings. Here was an other tray filled with solid gold rings, worth a $1000 or more. In fact, when you come to fine jewelry it doesn't take long to run up into the thousands. Mr Pratt's Idea is to have the best. He calculates to have so fine a stock that any visitor to bis store can be made happy without a tedious journey to Waterbury or Torrington. Tbe city guests also fird his store a good place to trade. Just now ; Mr Pratt is preparing for Christmas, and he proposes to give bis patrons such a feast of bargains in beautiful goods that they are bound to buy in large quantities. He has an im mense repair trade and is called on to doctor anything in the time-keeping line from a granddaddies' cloak to the finest waich. WEST MORRIS- THE FAMOUS ORCHESTRA OF - SMOKE HOLLOW.

With the falling of the leaves, attend ed Dy tne cniii irost of tne air, comes the groups abont tbe stoves in shop and store, and while "tobaker" is not the crop it has been here, and consequently the discussion in reference to that weed baa seemed to wane, we are obliged to listen to the same old tales of fishing and hunting and cooning as of yore and a little later a vast amount of cordwood and stove wood will be the principal theme of inspiration. We enjoy each year to hear "the lives of great men" so thoroughly warranted by the "great men" themselves and only wish our birthday had commenced under such planet as we know some of theirs did to result in deeds so appalling and un excelled. "Solomon in all his glory" never could have contrived the' gigantic operations like some of those and the greatest wonder seems to be that such exploits and labor snouid not nave re sounded to tbe farthereat shore. There Is nothing which brings out some men's life work and achievements equal to good fire in a public sitting place, and it is such a satisfaction seemingly to these old warriors to narrate over and over their past deeds we truly envy them the satisfaction consequent and the re flection of tbeir life's work and successes Long may all live to enjoy it in retro spect, and how fortunate the winters are so long that we may enioy often and re peatedly a narration of past time and olden time experiences and exploits, May we all live too, so as to realize and profit if possible by present day oppor tunities. - AT THE VILLAGE CHURCH. Rev Even Evans delivered a sermon at tine v mage cnurcn, last Sunday morn ing, upon "Christ showing his wounds," after which the sacrement of the Lord's bupper was observed and George Mc- Can, Miss Bertha Schultz, Miss Maud Bolles and Master Clarence Jones were received, by profession of their faith into the membership of tbe church.
