Directors‘ _\ urinal Report ---\\'liy the Four
Tracks Haven‘t Been Laid.
\Ye have already given the aggregate
figures of the annual business of the New
York. New Haven and Hartford Railroad
company during the past year. The
thirteenth annual report of the directors
to be considered at the annual stock-_
holders‘ meeting in New Haven, “'eds
nesday. Jan. l-llh. shows, in addition to
new depots built. stone ballasting com-
pleted and the leasing of theStaruford
and New Canaan road. that “the average
fare per passenger in 1883 was about
fifty~three cents. while this year it is a
little less than fifty~two cents. Four
tracking has made little progress during
the year. rtly because of the great de-
lay in bui ding the new depot at New
Rochelle. which had to be. built before
the old one could be. removed from the
highway bridge. and. of course. before
that bridge could be removed. to give
place to a longer one. that should span
the four tracks—sand partly.'also. be-
cause the outlook for the future has not
been of a kind toencourage expenditures
in enlarging the capacity of railroads
greatly beyond its present needs.” The
new wrought iron bridge over the Hous-
ntouic is in every wav a success. “Trains
run over it as freely as they do over
terra firms—meeting and passing upon
it tlie'zsarne as elsewhere on the road-
whenever the regular routine of trnfiic
furnishes (wcasiou to do so.“ The.Air
Line is now entirely furnished with steel
rails. “The earnings of this division,
for the year ending September 30th last.
were $216,030.22. as a ainst $190,988.79
for the year previous, 11: the rent and
operating expenses together (including
the large expenditures in improving
tracks) still exceed the entire amount of
grass revenue of this division for the
last. fiscal year. It is believed that, ere
long. the Air Line will demonstrate its
right to exist by proving that it is self-
sustaining.”

The flour in their oplne of the 13th
inst. published without credit, on article
stating that “the. New York and Connec-
ticut Air Line railroad scheme was
strongly pushed before the Connecticut
legislature in year or two ago: the man-
agers claiming that two heavy railroad
contractors of large on ital. would take.
hold of the enterprise t e moment the
charter was granted. As one of these
contractors they named Colonel Linn, of
St. I‘etvrsbur“ who had built railroads
in Russia.“ t is ii pity to spoil so good
a story which is now on its travels
through our state newspapers: but the
fact is. there is not one word of truth in
the statement. as the said Colonel Linn
is not 'known by any director in the
Connecticut Air Line Company. The
only approach to the truth is that (‘ol-
onel Linn did accompunv a party in the
interest of the "New York & Boston

the party spent one night in this city at
the .\Ialiakeino hotel. Sept. filth. 1883.

Tue Cumberland and Maurice River rail

expressly to receive this trullic. It and

In Maurice River Cove alone there are

the ovster fleet for miles above and be-
low theriiouth of the Maurice river is
like sailing in the lower part of New
York harbor when a long storm has kept
vessels from going to sea.
Comparatively few Delaware oysters
are now raised. The natural beds are
not allowed to be dredged. except in
April, May, and half of June. and even
with this protection they furnish no rc-
markablc oysters. and only a small part
of the seed oysters needed. The plan~
tcls buy the rest, in Virginia in the
spring. plant them in the Delaware beds.
and take them up ready for market in
the fall. They are not so geod as the
real Delaware‘s. Planters are trying to
increase. the crop of the latter by saving
oyster shells. The experiments have
been very successful. and $40,000 bush-
els of shells bought at the Baltimore
canning factories are now heaped on the
shore to be planted next spring.

A Fort Worth Knowing.
Every winter much annoyance and
expense, is the result of frozen service
pipes connecting with water and gas
mains. A simple and cheap remedy was
discovered some twenty or more years
since. while digging for a leak in the
large. gas main near the gasworks in
the borough. This leak occurred in mid
winter when the earth was frozen to a
depth of at least two feet. “'hile dig~
ging through this frozen earth to find
the leak, they crossed a piece of ground
several feet in length, where Cinders
from the locomotives of the Danbury
and Norwalk railroad had spread over
the pipe line to the depth of eight and
ten inches: and although the frost was
fully two feet deep either side of the cin-
ders. there was none under them. Since
that pipes were laid from the gas works
to the valve house and gas holder act-out
the street, where. owing to the grade,
only ten inches of filling could be used,
and the pipes were covered to that depth .

(‘lergyincn Swllullesl.
For the past two weeks a clever
swindler has been at work among the
Connecticut clergymen. and has neatly
sulil many of them. The man represen-
ted himself as the agent ofanndon
cloth firm. and showed samples of suit;-
ing which he offered for sale. telling
them that P. D. Ryan, a Hartford tailor,
had made a contract with him to make
up the cloth very cheap. Many of the
unsuspecting ministers bought the cloth
and wrote to Mr. Ryan asking him how
much he would charge to make the suits
and telling him the cloth had been pur—
chased from his agent. Mr. Ryan was
greatly surprised when he received the
letters. asihe knewnctliingwhather of the
man or his doings. The cloth which the
“agent“ sold is worth about $1 a yard.
A Curious Story of a Tree.
The Bridgeport Standard has the fol-
lowing: On the premises of Mr. Noah‘".
Bradley, of \Vestport. a willow tree, the
growth of nearly a century, stood until
the latter part of August last. During a
thunder shower many neighboring trees
were broken off. or uprooted, but this
tree withstood the force of the wind.
Mr. Bradley expected to see it succumb.
but to his great pleasure‘it passed through
the ordeal without the loss of a branch.
Shortly after a storm, at noon of a rarely
beautiful day, when he and his people
were at table. crashing sounds as of fall-
ing timber were heard coming from the
direction of the tree. 0n visiting the
spot he found that the tree bad ported
in four sections, falling one each to the
west. north, south, and east with as
much exactness as if placed there by
skilled bands. The eastern branch, the
Iargl-st. fell upon the dwelling. and strik-
ing a chimney. came near demolishing it.
This strange thing occurred soon after
the earthquake, and by chance that din-
turbsnce may have prepared the tree for
its singular and almost mysterious pars
formanoe. ‘
