FAIRFIBLD eouu'rr ITEMS.
, WINNIPAUK.
The Festival given by the Mechanic’s
Library Association last week, was much
enjoyed'by those who participated in its
pleasures, and their presence was the cause
Of a pecuniary remuneration quite satisfac-
torily to the Association. The net proceeds
are not up to the average proceeds of other
years for which we hold,“hard times” ac-
countable. The interest in the festivalnever
flagged from its commencement to its close.
The speaking and singing were highly cn-
joyed. The song “Jennie and Jamie” by
Miss Ida Crowther and Miss Sarah Hull,
was particularly pleasing. The cane, which
was a beautiful one, was voted to Mr. J. C.
Handle, a token of the admiration of his
friends ;“Jingles” ought to be happy in the
possession of such friends and such a cane.
_ One feature of the occasion was the pre-
sentation of an elegant silver caster, to Mr.
John Bragg, as a testimony of their appre
ciation of his services as librarian during
the past year. The Association are indebt-
ed to their friends in Norwalk, for their
contribution, and we trust that they will
always thusremember us.
The Library has now been in successful
operation for three years, we have now
536 volumes on our shelves, and with dona-
tions and with what we intend to purchase
we hope to make the number of volumes in
the library, Jan. lst, 1875, seven hundred.
Our memberships are constantly on the in-
crease, showing that its work is being more
appreciated every year, and it cannot fail to
be so. We venture to assert that there is
not in this State a public library of its size
where there is a better collection of the
very best authors. Much interest was
manifested at the annual meeting which
was held on the evening of the 5th inst, the
old “board of otIicers were re-elected with
the exception of the Librarian who declined
a rte-election.
We are indebted to Mrs. E. C. Bissell, for
a generous donation of be oks. N.

The large barn belonging to Taylor An-
dreWs, in Bethel, was destroyed, with four-
teen cows and twenty-live tons of hay, about
twelve O’clock, Wednesday night. The fire
is supposed to have been the work of an in-
cendiary. The loss is estimated at $3,000;
insured for $700.

The bridge recently impaired by the fresh-
et, has been temporarily repaired, so that
vehicles may cross. The work was accom-
plished under difficulties, and the public will
appreciate the fact when they learn that
nearly a week, between tides, was required to
adjust what the angry elements tore away in
a few short hours. The two sections of the
bridge which fell into the water at the time
of the rise, now rests on upright timbers and
piles of blocking. It is thought these will
serve till spring, unless accumulated ice and
another great rain visits us, when the stone-
workgwill be laid up anew. Little of any-
thing has been done with the upper bridge-
As in primitive times, people can take ad-
vantage ot the water when low, and cross
the stream at pleasure.
The funeral of Mr. Randolph Bradley,
who died on Sunday, Jan. 111b, took place
at Memorial church, Wednesday afternoon.
The weather was inclement, a recent snow
having fallen, but many friends assembled
in the sacred edifice to pay a last tribute to
one well-known and respected. .Rev. Mr.
Stevens conducted the services, and the bu-
rial took place in the Congregational ceme-
tery.
The new house at Saugatuck, built by
order of the Selectmen, for the use of Mr. S.
Denmead, draw-tender, was appropriately
inaugurated or warmed, on Monday evening
of last week. The structure stands at the
west end of the bridge, and commands
through windows of fine French plate glass,
views of the river abovennd below. It is
ample for the requirements of one man, but
hardly large enough for a public demonstra-
tion, nevertheless, in accondance with the
formal invitations, Mr. J. E. Wheeler, Pat-
rick Murphy, James E. Hubbell, Noah W.
Bradley, Daniel Bradley, Jesse Bradley, Ru-
fus Wakeman, E. S. Wheeler, and others to
the number of eight, crowded into the apart-
ment, and were entertained by Mr. Denmead
in a. manner becoming the overseer of a
$21,000 bridge. 'NO speeches-were made,
but some toasts were given expressive of the
general wish for Mr. D.’s success and long
life. From a glass of plain lemonade, made
by Mr. N. W. Bradley, Mr. Murphy drank
“Champaignto all our tirends, and pain to
all our sham friends”—-a feat we had before
supposedto be impossible. The bridge is
capital condition, grows popular, and since
the accident to both bridges above, has been
constantly in use.
All fear as to the failure of the ice map
this winter, in this vicinity, are at an end.
Five successive cold nights have tended to
make a beginning in ice thickness which

A few evenings ago as Mr. S. Miller,
whom everybody knows as a truthful ‘man
and good citizen, was driving a yoke of
oxen, a runaway horse, attached to a
apartments on the second and third floors.
A committee {of gentlemen from the parish
volunteered on Saturday to,dig a drain by
way of relief. The drain is two hundred
wagon, came galloping up behind him. feet long, passes through a rye field, and
The horse, in passing, run so near one of
the oxen that Mr. Miller thought the latter
had been hit, but noting no appearance of
injury he drove along eight miles to his
place of destination. It was dark when the
runaway passed, and no light was used in
the barn when the oxen were turned out.
Next morning Mr. Miller, going out to at-
tend his cattle, found the shaft of a. wagon
lodged in the body of one Of the oxen to
the depth Of three feet, and the animal,
though evidently somewhat inconvenienced,
did not seem to mind it much at all.
The body of George Weed, the young
- man who, with his horse and wagon, was
swept away by the treshet on Thursday Of
last week, was found on Saturday about a
mile below the scene of the accident.

est ell’o'rt was in’ Plumtrees, where it remov-
ed the railroad bridge'so it could not be
passed for some days. It then went after
the bridge over the town read; next it
swept away the old Ambler dam which has
stood many years, clearing it out, leaving a
pole sticking up aboutvtwenty feet. Next
came tl‘-, dam and factory known as the
Laughton place, where it took the dam and
all the lower part of the factory, including
the machinery. The loss will tall heavy on
the present owner, Mr. Amza Wheeler, of

and his mill and dam received their share
of attention. In the village, Mr. John B.

considerable aid from the selectmen. It
