Fighting the San Jose Workers: Pt N Judge Christopher M. Lee of the Sixth district court was unamnimously elected in grand committee to succeed Judge Charles C. Mumford on the su- perior court bench of Rhode Island. The name of Judge John W. Sweenéy of ‘Westerly was not presented. Judge Sweeney withdrew, thereby making the election unanimous. In seconding the nomination of Judge Lee, Senator Louls W. Arnold of Weset- erly said: “It affords me a great pleas- ure to second the nomination of Chris- topher M. Lee. He is well qualified to fill the office for which he has been nominated. His experience has given him added qualifications for the new office. It is a pleasuype for me to second the nomination of £ man with so many qualifications as Judge Lee to the high office of associate justice of the supe- rior court.” * There were aboutiforty present at the spraying demonstration given at the O. R. Smith farm, Westerly, under direction of the state board of agricul- ture. A. B. Wilkinson gave & short ad- dress 68 to the most effective way of combatting the San.Fose scale.

It was reported In Westerly Thurs day that the Booth Brothers’ company, of New London and New York, with quarries at Waterford, Conn., Hurri- cane Island and Fox Island, Me., have just landed a contract to furnish cut granite for the Northwestern rallway station to be constructed in Chicago. It is said that the Booth Brothers’ com- pany contract will be for about $7,000,- 000, and that the gramite to be used will be from the Hurricane and Fox Island quarries. There is probability that the will of Miss Ellen Burke will be admitted to probate without contest, and that ail opposition will be withdrawn, it being understood that the misunderstanding between parties in interest has been explained and amicably adjusted.

A true philosopher once said there was no such thing as bad weather. As far as the fire sale is cbncerned, that is true. It may be disagreeable out-of- doors. It may be snowy and slushy underfoot; but in the store the spirit of the Fire Sale makes everything glow and sparkle. As a matter of fact, it was far more comfortable at the sale early than it usually is, The bad traveling kept some folks home--those who came bought in greater comfort. But soon the scene changed--the store was thronged as usual. Eager folks hurried to share in the Fire Sale offerings. And today will be such another day, and Saturday. There is more room for you to get at them. There is a greater and fuller satisfaction for every Fire Sale shopper. The harvést is ready. Women will reap from the economy harvest and find that they gather greater and better shleaves than ever they gathered before. - (MAIN FLOOR) ; Bmmense assortment of Fancy Buttons that were 25¢ to 50c, per dozen at 1lc. % Owing to the scarcity of space we were prevented from offer- ing the balance of our Pyrography Articles, worth 10c to $3.00, for 1c tq 50c edch.
