BRIDGEPORT.

The new front in HOllOways old ware
house is about completed and is nearly
uniform with the front OF his other
building adjoining it on the corner. A
tObacconist has already taken possession
of one of the rooms.
John Woodfeld who sometime ago
opened cigar factory here and sold out
TO the Robinson brothers, has again
opened up at his old stand, from which
the RObinsOns had moved.
The two stOrerooms in the new Helm
lein building, are already rented and are
being rapidly fitted for occupation. The
one nearest TO Kirkwood is to be a res
taurant and the other drug store.
Yesterday morning at nine o'clock
the marriage of Miss Lizzie Branum and
Mr.. Frank Robinson came off as an
nounced, at the house of the brides
parents. The ceremony was performed
by Rev. Mr.. Edgell, assisted by Rev.
Mr.. Smith. There was a large attend
anCe of relatives of the bride and groom,
who have an extensive relationship in
this place and neighborhood. The
happy couple left on the IL o'clock
train for the East.
Monday night the serenaders were
out and rendered some delicious music.
They visited the residence of the BRIDE
to-be and the house of the schOolmaster.
The Heinlein brothers bring beautiful
music from the flute and violin, and are
natural musicians of excellent taste.
Archie McCaren is devOting himself
to his brick yard, and paying less atten-
ton 10 gardening than formerly. He
is turning out large quantities OF excel
lent brick.
Capt. John Baggs, who for a year or
two devoted his time and talents to the
temperance cause, is again carrying on
the plastering business. He gets on his
working harness and goes into it just as
heartily as he did into the temperance
work.
Several years ago, during the cru
sade, Adam Eberly was fined
fifty dollars, for which he gave
his note. When this came due, it was
not paid, and suit was brought on it.
At the last meeting of Council on
Eberly's petition and promise 10 pay all
the costs and attorneys fees, the COun-
Gil passed an order to withdraw the case
and take no further action. As the case
was stated to us, judgment had already
been rendered on the note against the
maker, and we cannot see how it is pos
sible that Council could have any juris-
diction in the matter from a legal stand
point. There may be extenuating cir
cumstances of which we know nothing
but if the idea is simply TO save ex-
pense, il is bad principle 10 60 on.
The heavy showers OF yesterday in
terfered but slightly with the railroad
work. The fill is growing rapidly. A
small tressel is to be put in just in front
OF the saw-mill, so that logs may still be
hauled up from the creek.
The street sprinkler rather enjoys the
showery days, as he lies off during and
after the showers. II he could get up a
little patent to make it shower at the
right time every day he would enjoy it,
We notice that subscribers TO the
American Reprint OF the Encyclopedia
Britannica have received their ninth
volume, Certain lying agents
OF rival works were around
some months ago endeavoring TO per-
suade subscribers that this volume
would never come out. They can now
come around and lie about the next
volume in the same way until it makes
its appearance in due time. This is one
of the finest books OF reference in the
world, and the American Reprint is
fully equal to the original and sells for a
little more than half its price. Any
one desiring to examine it can DO 50 by
dropping card TO 'B. c., REGISTER Of
fee.
