ed yesterday, when Thcopliile Eil-
plirt, the well-known real estate fin-
ancier, disposed of his handsome
property in West Horwalk to The
Holy Ghost iI‘atliers. This is a reli-
glous order which has had its head-
quarters in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania.

pose now to movo the institution to
the recently acquired property in
West Nor-walk, where the work of ed-
ucating young men for the priesthood
will continue. There are about eighty
students and several professors and
other iiiciubcrs of the household.

place is the halidsomcst for
miles around, including one hundred
acres of Well kept and cultivated
grounds. a house containing twenty
rooms, with every modern conven-
ience, barns. outbuildings. etc.; in
fact, everything necessary for the. con-
duct of a well equipped farming estab-
lishment. Mr. Euphrut several years
ago purchased tho property of Frank
Green, and since that time he has re-
biiilt the house and expended large
sums of money in other improvements,
making the place iip-to-dato in every
respect.

The new owners propose to corn-
iiience at once the construction of a
dormitory 100 by 150 feet. three stories
in height, which will contain apart-
ments for the students. This will al—
so have till the latest improvements.
The property is only two and one-half
miles from South Norwalk. and can
be easily rreathed in a ten minute ride
it is on high ground and is admirably
located for the purpose to which It is
to be put Mr. Euphrat was instrii
mental in having a telephone line con-
structed to the. place, and the house
is equipped with a long distance iii-
strumerit. There Is no doubt but that
the new institution will prove of great
benefit to the merchants of The Nor-

walks as Mr Euphrat lnforrned a Son-
tinel representative that all supplies
would be purchased here. and cIery-
tliing possible done by the new own-
ers to advance the interests of the
town. which, through having such a
large number of [students from all
parts of the world. will naturally be-
come widely known.

Mr. EIupliIiit has been instrumental
in getting a large number of wealthy
llllil desirable citizens to locate in
ltowaytoii. and other places in the
loan He is not ready Just at present
to make known his plans for the im—
mediate future bilt that he wrll con-
tinue in the field in Wlllih he. has
iiade such a success, Is a foregone
conclusion. it is possible that his
building operations may extend to
other portions of The Norwalks short~
ly. it will be gratifying news to his
many friends and the business world
generally to know that he will con-
tiiiiie, his residence hero. and do all
in his power to assist in building up
the place

the front of the office. but saw nothing
to attract his attention and heard no
unusual sounds.

Rebuilding
Oyster l’lont

Improvements on a large
Scale Oontempleted by the
Radel Oyster company——
New Dock and Coal bins Are
Being Planned

improvements on a large scale are
to be made at the plant of the llatlel
Oyster Company during the next few
months and the plant will be re 'illllI
tioriized in some respects. The I 'lIII
cipul work will be the filling iii of the,
wharf with oyster shells so that a solid
bcd may be had for the storing of
shells. To do this necessitates the
driving of a large number of piles as a
retaining wall. At‘i‘OSs the from of
the wharf, driven at an tingle of about
forty-five degrees, will be a row of fit.
ty-flve piles or more, each of which
will have it retaining strength of thirty
tons. These will be properly reIiu—
forced so that the shells and mud can—
not be driven out into the channel.
flack of this row twenty foot will be a
secondary row of piles driven perpen-
dicularly into the sllt‘ll bed and mud.
The wharf will tiieii be raised to the
level of high water so that next season
the men will be able to load shells on
the barges at all tides, thus avoiding an
unnecessary and expensive delay, i’tlea
will be driven and side walls placed
on a portion of the wharf for the slim
age of coal. The company has hither-
to been in the habit of cooling its
boats anywhere and everywhere but as
soon us the coal frills are coliipleted
the boats will be supplied with coal at
their own wharf.

iii sortie blaces the big building used
for the opening plant will be repaired.
as it has settled where piles were pine.
ed in particularly soft mud. This
will be remedied and a new floor and
considerable piling will be pill Iii anti
under the smaller opening shop. which
Is now in a rather bad strife of repair.
Many other minor improvements are
to be made about the plant. .

The opening of oysters for the. ship
ping market will ciIiniiIeiii-n on August
:39 and preparations are being made.
for It. The steamers Medea. florid
i‘dil'l‘iel‘ and Active are being overhaul-
ed at Cold Spring Harbor. while the
llsirea, Jessie Clayton and Dread-
iiuuglit are being overhauled in Bridge
‘)()l'[. A number of the life boats are
being overhauled here in South Nor-
walk.
