One of the neatest contrived and most brilliantly executed society affairs of the season was the “At Home,” held last evening at the residence of Mrs. George Jennings.

A meeting was held in East Norwalk last evening for the purpose of institut- ing a Sons of Temperance Division, but on account of many not knowing it was to be held, the attendance was light. The organization was partly ef- fected, however, and will be completed by an election of officers at an adjourn- ed meeting to be 'held next Tuesday. evening. The new Division will start in its laudable career with thirty char- ter members. Contractor Bach commenced work on the widening of Fort Point road yester- day. By order Of one of .the select- men, himself present, 'the Groeschner railing was razed and placed on the Claimant’s property.

WASHINGTON, April 14—The Wash- ington team put up a great game to- day, fielding'perfectly, batting heavily and running bases in clever style. Bakely was very effective against the Boston Sluggers for five innings, but in the sixth they landed on his delivery for a couple of three baggers, two two base hits and a' single, which netted them four runs. Keefe relieved Bake- ly in the seventh and was untouchable. Hatfield led his side in batting, while the base running of Brown was the fea- ture of the visitors’ work. The score : Washingtons 1 1 1 3 0 O 1 0—7 Boston 01000400-6 Batteries—Bakely, Keefe and McGuire Buflington, O’Brien and Farrell. Umpire—Mr. Jones. LOUISVILLE, April 14—About 2,500 people saw the Louisville team defeat their old rivals—the Cincinnatis—to- day. Ehret pitched very effectively and kept the hits scattered. Cincinnati was very weak in the box, both McGill and Mains being wild and ineffective. The score: ' Louisville 0 0 0 1 0 3 2 2 x—8 Cincinnati 0 0 2 O 0 1 0 0 0—3 Batteries—Ehret and Ryan; McGill.

Among the gentlemen who took the first degree in Odd Fellowship on Mon- day night and found themselves in the hands of the worthy brethren of Our Brothers’ Lodge. was Mr. R. K. Fitch, of Weston, who was piloted to the 10- cal'habitation of the three-link gentle- men by Brother Charles Gregory. Shortly after leaving Norwalk on then way home, Messrs. Fitch and Gregory had occasion to leave their vehicle for a business call, and when they return- ed, like the Irishman’s flea, it wasn’t there, and they were clearly “not in it.” Guided by the stars and a small per- centage of moonlight, they had a fourl miles’ walk home, reaching there just before daylight. P1 ecisely what they thOught and said would not be the sort of matei ial for a family newspaper like the DAILY GAZETTE, but Brother Fitch is of the opinion that even if degrees come high he’s bound to have them. Cycling Directory.
