upon his right side, and as the injury was
so painful it was at first thonght his ribs
ware broken, and after reaching home and

A Vealy Adventurc.
Last Wednesday afternoon as the day
in ight train going north on the Dunbury
and Norwnik Railroad was approaching
Cnnnon‘s Station, three calves were dis-
covered on' the track, who seemed dis-
posed to dispute the right of way with
the train. The engineer whistled 9 shrill
warning to them, but they heeded it not.
The train being heavy it was impossible
to make a quick stop, and 9 bnkeman
named Gilbert jumped 08 and ran ahead
to “shoe" them into the ditch. They
didn’t “shoo” worth 9. snap, ind Gilbert
grabbed 'one of them by the tall with the
intention of throwing him over into the
lot, whereupon theafirighted animal start.
ed on a run ‘up the track, ‘ with Gilbert
clutching its tail. If you've ever tried it
you know it's no fool of a job to maintain
a close connection with a frightened calf,
especially when you’re obliged to run
straddle-legged to avoid being kicked by
the flying hind hoofs of the critter. And
that’s what Gilbert thought as he danced
rapidly along trying to make up his mind
whether he had the calf, or the calf had
him. Meantime tha engine was gal ing
on them, and just as it seemed" probable
that the cowcatcher would overhaul the
calf catcher, Gilbert by a stroke of good
fortune, succeeded in rolling himself and
the calf head over heels and hoofs down
the bank, and the train whizzed by within
a hair’s breadth of them.

A number of the citizans of Huntington,
L I., believe it important to the interests
of the people of that town to 9stablish 9‘

To that end a company has been organized
under the statutes of the state of New
York in accordance with the limited lia-
bility act to be entitled the Huntington,
Bridgeport and Norwalk Ferry company,
with 9. cash capital of $6,000 to be divided
into 940 shares at a. par value of 825 each,
for the purpose of conveying passengers
and freight between the village of Hunt-
ington and.the cities of Bridgeport and ‘
South Nor-walk in the state of Connecticut.
The entire amount has been subscribed
and negotiations are now pending for a
boat. ’
The Long blunder says: “ E. S. Hall,
of South Norwalk, 9 member of the com-
mittee he's taken a very active interest in
thc enterprise and has tutor-viewed the
leading business men of Norwalk and,
thinks they will take hold of the enterprise
9ctively. The superintendent of the N or-
walk and Danbury R. R. Co. will take an
active interest in the enterprise and will
enable the ferry company to furnish low
through rates to and from N. Y. city for
passengers and freight by way of their
steamers from Wilson's Point.
