Consolidated road were reduced to twp
cents per mile that it is impossible to
tell how the reduction will affect the,

He Is of the Ollllltfll that thus far
there has been a s ight falling off in the
receipts, as had been expected. The
directors. however. think that during
Iliesprim: and summer the passenger
tratlic will be so much heavier than fog;

for the evening'was converted into a ball
room. Four large tables were set in the
curling room. They were loaded with
the most tempting viands which were
made specially inviting by the good
taste with which they were arranged.
Dancing commenced about half past

A Fair Haven man who is largely in-
terested in the cultivation of oysters
says that with many large owners of
territory the trouble is they hold too
many acres which they are not able to
cultivate, and which. therefore, are not
so profitable as smaller tracts thoroughly
attended to. He predicts that when the
question of taxation shall come to be
seriously consider-edit will belikely that
the large and unprofitable holdings will
be cut up Ind. disposed of among a
grater number of owners. The cultiva-
tion will then be I more snug business

Death of Ella Jourdan.
The young lady referred to in the fol—
lowing notice taken from the Brooklyn
Standard was known toanumberin this
city and a frequent visitor at Mrs. Burr
Knapp’s : ‘ '
The death of the eldest daughter of
Gen. James Jourdan has removed from a
large circle of friends and acquaintances
one of tho noblest and purest natures
that ever found lodgement in the form
of woman. Romantically beautiful
physically. Ella Jourdan possemed a soul
as clear and transparent as the crystal.
Her disposition was a loving one. and
every action of her young life testified
to the goodness of heart that gave birth
to the generous qualitiesof mind and
manner that; won the love of all who
knew her. Under the care of a noble
mother. a naturally beautiful character
early developed into splendid woman
hood, and both at. home and in society
at large her bright intellect held loving
away. The sad manner of the ending of
this perfect life will bring tears to the
eyes of many who never know it. On
the day set apart for her wedding she
dies. An old friend of her parents was
the choice of her on; heart. and It
future destined to one of happiness
was apparently, in store for them when

It is a number of vears since sleighing
has been as good here :Is for the past ten
days. and never has it been better in all
respects. During the latter part of last;
Week there was only a coating of ice
over the roads, but it was enough to
make the sleping good. and the owners
of horses which are [rollers and those
which are not. used “Pudding Lane“
for a race course, and everybody with a
horse and sleigh raced with somebody
else. and beat or got be: ten. Up to Sat-
urday last. Wm. Saunders “Rickie“ was
the boss of the path, beating all the trot
ters and all the pacers. too, which he
raced with. This was considerable glory
for the horse, for he had some mighty
good ones against him. “Rookie" is a
sure horse. lIe trots very fast. and is
thoroughly honest and level-headed.
His owner is perfectly justified in feel-
ing proud of him. He was out the fore
part of this week. but only for exercIse.
After Sunday‘s snow fall the track was
changed to first Avenue, and the atten-
dance and interest has increased until
everybody who can gets there in the life
ternoon to participate in or witness the
sport.
\Vednesday was a very livery day. \V.
R. )IcCready was over from Compo with
his pet pacer "Primrose." and “downed"
everything he could getto go with him,
except S. \V. Gregory s pacer “Pearl.“
who divided the honors with him. Both
these horses were in line condition, and
they went up and down the‘coume at, a
firing pace.
'Arthur Sherwood of \Vestport was
over with the pacer “Engineer,” who
won in the pacing race at the County
fair last. fall, but “Primrose" could plav
with him on the snow. The horse did
not seem to act well. and it is early in
the season yet to decide whether or not
he or “Primrose" is the best. There was
considerable anxiety to have “Rookie”
and “Primrose” have a brush, but Mr.
Saunders went home too early in the
da . -
£0019! Foote drove hi white horse,
which is a fast one, and a ded much to
the excitement by making a; good race
with the pacers. He Was the best trot-
ter on the th that day. Mr. Hoyt was
out with “ opsy,” but did not drive with
any of the boys. ' .
Frank Stevens was out with hrs fath-
er‘s gray pacer, but did not. attempt to
beat the fast ones. Frank contented him-
self with occasional spurts, during which
his companiou,Gil Bogart, was kept busy
protecting his eyes from the flying
snow-balls which the pacer threw Into
the sleigh. /
Hr. Bumham of Compo drove a pretty
mousecolored trotter, but not so fast as
the large horse with which be generally

beating Cbarlig St. John and all but the
pacer-s and fastest trotters. Ho rather
surprised the boys. Manus and B.
Lockwood were out with their old fav-
orites, and had their share of the fun.
\Viu. Bouto came on the path rather
late. llis “I. n“ was as guy as a a-
cock, and trotted very fast. Be as
several tussles with “Engineer,“ and
though he was not able to get by thd
“sidewhecler.” he would force him to
the top of his speed. and cause him to
uleave his feet." 0. E. Remsnn had hi0
young mare on the path, and she was
better than a good many of the older
horses. Fred. Lauder had a good many
Iriols with Reinsou. but he had to take
second place. lie had the satisfaction,
however, of beating] Charley Knapp.
Tom “'ard was out With his young horse
which has improved very much in ap-
pearance and admit since he came into
Mr. \Vard‘s pinsession.

team, composed of his and Col. Mat~
thewsou‘s trotu‘rs. Charles Lowndcs til
so drove a pttlrluf lively suppers.
The general display of fine turnouts
was very large, and as they passed up
and down the avenue, made a very live-
ly winter scene: ‘
