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. 1:- 1:- - 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. , .- »——.———4~o .1 1' BARN 131's.

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. cossrrs 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 and bottom. and it can‘t be worked out with any ordin- ary wear. 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 breakingvof a corset lace with those loop eyelets. We take the risk in selling the Kabo corset. buy and sell under this guarantee: “lffor any reason whaleoer l/ze corset 2’s aizsalzlgfaclory to the wearer it may be returned to as, and flu: money paid will be cheerfully rofimdal wit/tout guoslz'orz.
