It is made of alternate layers of wrought iron and steel, with combination lock and fastenings, on the latest and most improved plans. Inside is second compartment with equally se- cure fastenings, so that even if the outer compartment could be blown open with | powder, there would still be an inner door to force. There is no key hole, and it does not seem possible that any crack could be wedged in the door sufficiently large to introduce an effective charge of 1 powder. z | Tine Shepaug Railroad Milk Train is being quite extensively availed of by our dairymen, and it's business is rapidly in- reasing. We learn that the shipments at this Station alone, for August, amounted to 1903 Cans. The Refrigerator Cars, owned by this Company, are the best in the State, having double sides and roofs, filled in with charcoal and saw-dnst, and thoroughly ventilated They are so ad- mirably constructed that the ice is ire quently found to be remaining in the cars, on the1r return here from New York, the following morning. Issa 9z.jS %alb999d ], Our new Milk Association is getting we'll under way. They put on 20 more cans on the 1st inst. ,and have orders for 28 cans, they cannot fill at present. besides an opening that will take any surplus that may be offered. MT. Hart begins at the l bottom, determined to make the milk he I handles second to none in market. He visits every dairy offered before taking it in, to make sure thatproper facilities for a paying article are provided; he also insists on pure article as the stlrest' road to success More milk is wanted, and Mfr. Hart can be addressed at Litchfield, and will visit any farmer who wishes to em- bark in the business. sal .as 5ass .

 One of your Cornwall Correspondents in last weeks issue is mistaken in his fstatement that it was under the pastorate of the Rev. Wm B. Clark that the young folks prayer meeting was originated in Cornwall. The first meeting was held in 1 March or April, 1888, during a revivallun- der the labors of the Rev. S. J: Tracey and was continued with more or less of 1 interest under the pastorate of the Rev. iJ.TL Maynard. After his dismissior there was short time that it was discon- tinued. But, on MT, Clark s settlement. t was revived, and continued through his ministry with great interest and useful ness, as it also was under the Rev. Mr. l Wetherby. But under the pastofate of the Rev. Mir. Brush the attendance and interest waned. It is an interesting fact t 4 = sksS f~t.z LII
