the young ladies realized their highest
expectations in regard to the success of
the affair. The toilettee of many of the
ladies were strikingly handsome, and in
conventional harmony with the swell
evening dress of the gentlemen. Ilia-

the gas light, all combining to make the
scene one of rare beauty. Music for
dancing was furnished by the Jerome

secreted behind a wealth of palms. ferns
and other exotics on a platform at one
end of the hall. Their music was parti-
cularly sweet and harmonious, and add-

Council of Norwalk, last night.
l'pon the petition of D. A. Newcomb,
the writer commissioners recommended
that the water main on Ward street.
where Mr. r'ewcomb is erecting new
houses, be extended 200 feet. It was
stated that the expense would be about
875. and that the income from the water
rent would be .12. The Council approv-
ed the recommendation and granted the
petition.
'llie monthly report of the chief of
police was received and placed on file.
E. 1’. ll. Cuprun and S. W. Gregory
petitioned for a crosswalk across Knight
street. from the horse car stables to the
entrance to 'Mr. Cspron's carpet cleaning
works. The petition went to the high-
way committee.
The fire department matter then came
up for discussion. Councilman Chinery,
chairman of the committee, said he had
no special report or rmommendations to
make, further than that the captain of
Hope Hose company thought he had
now got his men under control and
would make agood company of them.
Chief Engineer Prowilt, who was pres-
ent. said he had taken no action in the
matter; the meeting of the committee
had not been altogether satisfactory. on
acmunt oi the action of the captain when
he appeared before them. Councilman
Osborn thought ihli. as the committee
had never made my report or recom-
mendations, the Council could not act
uotilthey had something to act upon.
He suggested that the committee be
continued; that they call the captain of
the company belon- them again if they
considered such course necessary, and
that they submit. a written report.
Such being the sense of the discussion.
Mr. Osborn‘s suggestion was pill as a
motion by Councilman l‘iunoo and
carried.

near the Earle residencemhere the Tramv
way company had cut down the reed
way. He said he had every reason to
believe theta proposition lands to Mr.
Earle by the city would result in his giv-
ing enough of his property to widen the
street at that point. and that it would
lead the way to others giving land. lie
suggested that the Council give the mat—
ter consideration, and [that ‘a committee
be appoinled to confer with Mr. Earle.
This met the approval of the other mem
bers of the Council, who thought that
the work should be done at once. Upon
motion of Councilman Boyer, the 'hlgh'
way committee were directed to confer
with Mr. Earle and report at a special
meeting to be held next Monday night
at 7 o'clock.
Councilman Adams reported his action
in discontinuing the gathering of gar-
bage in the business portion of the city.
He said this work had cost the city about
$225 a year. He had sent around to the
business men to see if they would be
willing to contribute ten or fifteen cents
a w k for this purpose, and had, in
many insurance, been roundly abused.
The Council approved of , all Mr. Adams
had done in the premises. In the mat-
ter of giving the highway work out by
contract, Mr. Adams said he had given
the subject considerable thought, and
had concluded that the city could do the
workascheaplyflasitmuld be done by
contract. lie thought he could get' the
team work done for about 2.51) a day.
On motion of Councilman Osborn the
highway committee were given purer to
RC! as they deemed beet.
Councilman Wheeler said he was .still
in communication with the Noraalk and
South Nero'itlk Electric Light company
relative to a contract for lighting the city
streets. The company, he said. Would
like to make a contract for only one
year. but he was not prepired to report
just what terms they would make. The
members of the Council favored a one-
year contract, on the ground that elec-
tricity was likely to become cheaper
from year to year.
Councilman \\ healer introducm a
resolution that a city meeting be called
to authorize the laying ‘of a sewer
through Butler street. The reaction was
laid on the table one week to allow the
corporation coune-il to determine some
legal aspects of the question touching
