In connection with an item about
the young man Knapp being incapac-
iated, from work, his father says the fit
he had the other evening was the first
he has had in eight months, and that
he is able to engage in any light em-
ployment. The GAZETTE is glad to
correct any ignession its item may
have caused to the contrary.

A skull fished up by oysternien on
one of H. C. Rowe’soystei steamers,
engaged in dredging near the New
Haven light-house Monday, has been
identified as the skull of Jim Curtiss,
an oysterman, who thirty years ago,
while out on a sharpie with Philander
Robinson: now a ship carpenter, was
knocked overboard by the boom strik-
ing him, and drowned. Robinson has

identified the skull owing to a peculiar

protrusion of the bones just over the
eye sockets, and the peculiar condition

‘ of the teeth -

Writes an East Norwalk reader of
the GAZETTE: “Mr. J. S. Randall 1s
widening the street at the east end of
East avenue. ‘Mr. Randall gives some
six or eight feet of his land and is hav-
ing the work done at his own expense.
Would it not be the square thing for
the town, through its agents, the
Selectmen, to share the expense of the
improvement, which will be to the
convenience of all ? The road is very
narrow at this point, from the top of
the hill to the old mill, and ought to
have been widened long ere this.”

Gen. Manager. Lucius Tuttle, and
Supt. O. M. Shepherd, 0f the Consoli-
dated road, were in consultation, this
morning, with ex—Mayor Christian
Swartz, Selectman Nelson J. Craw and
ex-Representative John H. Ferris, a
committee appointed by Mayor Reed,
to see what could be done in the mat-
ter of changing the location of the loco-
motive water supply pipe on Wedge
Park. As now located it is near the
Washington street crossing, and the
steam from locomotives while getting
a supply of water, which. is of frequent
occurrence, frightens passing teams.
The matter was fully considered and
Manager Tuttle has promised to give
his decision in a few days. It was sug-
gested that the supply pipe be placed at
the west end of the park.

Your reporter understands that
Messrs. [Lowndes & Raymond propose

making decided improvements about
their Roton Point property. The lead-
ing ones are a three-story building on
the site of the ones recently burned,
the ground floor to be open andused as
a pavilion; the upper stories to be fin-

ished up in rooms, two high towers

being added, at either end 'of the. build-
ing, which will be 25x60. At Pine
Point, or near where the boats now
land, a large hotel will be built. It
will be two stories high with mansard
roof, the ground floor being. 36x100
feet. Architect Knapp is 0w at work
on the plans for both buil ings. With
these improvements added to the
natural beauties of the place it is'be-
lieved that Roton Point can be made
the most popular resort 011 the Sound.

NEW DRESS FABRICS.

Never in our recollection has there been a more fruitful season in
Dress Fabrics, and never before had we such a variety. Our buyers set out
early in the search of Novelties, with instructions to gather liberally and to

make sure of the fullest representation. . That they have done so no longer

admits of a doubt. This Spring Exhibit ofkours excites the admiration of
all who look upon it. Experts pronounce it the fullest and finest display
ever opened. For a time we were a little puzzled to give it sufl‘icient
counter room, or rather how to place it so as ,to fill the eye most easily—
the harvest was so exceedingly abundant above what anybody had calcu-
lated. But we have now accomplished the, feat successfully, and under the
floods .of light which fill our spacious store, the view is most comprehensive
and pleasing. Among the Elegant High Novelties is a very choice
collection of BLOCK PLAIDS on Melange Grounds, Grays, Tans and
Blues, with White Cross-Bars. OtherS'in Frosted and Snowflake Effects
on French Serge. Others in contrasting colors on Bourette Grounds, and
a great many in fine light weight Rough Shaggy Cheviots.

Right by the side of these are BROKEN PLAIDS on the same sort of
These are very effective, beginning with faint SHADOW PLAIDS

and running up into more and more decided patterns until they culminate

fabrics.

in a rich display of the broadest designs and very boldest colorings.

CHECKS abound in seemingly every, possible variation, developing
beauties of which one can scarcely believe them capable, weaving out
compound problems of Stripes and Plaids, and winning the favor of all who
look upon them. I /

A STRIPES also multiply themselves in tiny threads, broadening by
degrees up to the largest, and running also from the most subdued
colorings to the brightest. ' I I

PLAIN FRENCH SERGES AND ALL WOOL AND SILK
HENRIETTAS meet more perfectly the demands of quieter tastes. The
color line of these includes FORTY-SIX SHADES, made. 11p most exclusively of

variations in the pretty Grays, Tans and Blues now so much in vogue.

Is this what the women want?

Here's news for every woman who goes ab0ut with
broken corset bones. Thereis a material that’ll neither
break nor roll up, and it’s guaranteed. A year is not too
short-a time to wear out that warranty. If it does, here’s
your money without a word—bu! it zom’z‘.

The material is Kabo. '

And more.11’s stitched in. double-stitched in, top

The Kabo corset is more than a common blessing
to the average woman. There’ s no wearing out of corset
lacers by the sharp edge of the eyelet; there’s nothing to
rust, no eyelet visible through a thin dress; never a
