ssSassacl1s Park.''
The old Indian Chieftain-A Sugges-
 tiOn from Citizens.

The Old Indian Chieftafn-A Sugges-
 ton from Citizens.
 Now that it has become settled thing that the city is to have large public park at East Rock, the idea of christening it has already occurred to some of our citizens. The idea emanated from the impression that some name ought to be bestowed which would be more poetic and historical than East Rock. No combination has been entered into to dic- tate @ name for the future park. Nor is there any sinister motive underlying the suggestion. It is allowed also that it is yet premature to think seriously of christening what does not yet exist except in the same chaotic but never theless picturesque and romantic state in which nature left it, far back in those periods which the geologists have established for the enlightenment of the student. The name already mentioned as very suitable is ''Sassa- cus." The old sachem Sassacus was man of such note and prominence in the early colonial times that no reference need be made to the old chieftain save that he was a much nearer approach to the statuesque and picturesque ideal Indian portrayed in the novels of Fen nimore Cooper than is ''Lo! the poor Indian" of these degenerate days. The poet Hillhouse gave him place in his realms of fancy, and the name is preserved with the sanction of other authorities. The name strikes certain citizens as happy one. and the city fathers may take it into consideration when christen- ing time comes.

Spiritual and Material Prosperity.
The Annual Securing of FeVvs ina the Churches

The Annual Securing of FeVys in the
 Churches.
 Next Monday will be pew renting day in large number of the churches. The pews of Trinity will be rented on different plan from that heretofore pursued; the pews will be given a new valuation, and present holders can retain them at such valuation upon com pliance with certain prescribed terms. The committee will be in attendance at the church on Monday from 10 to 12 a. m. and to 10 p. In. to rent such pews as shall not have been disposed of under the new arrangement.
 St. Pauls church pews will be rented in the evening; the North church pews in the after noon from to o'clock and evening from o9; the Third Congregational church pews in the evening at o'clock; the pews of the St. John street Methodist Episcopal church in the evening, commencing at 7:3O; at St. James church, Fair Haven, in the evening at 7:3O o'clock; at Calvary Bap- tist church in the evening at 7:3O; at the Church of the Messiah in the evening at 7:3O. The late s'business boom" leads some to think that the prices of pews will touch Q higher point this year than for several years past, though some doubt it and claim that money is still ''tight." It is held unquestionable by some that more money will be realized than in past years, and they point to busy factories, forces of hands working twelve hours per day for months past, to the enlargement of manu- factories and the almost unprecedented manu- featuring business which some of our estab- lishments are doing. They point to great 1nanufacturinc establishm snts in other rJaces of the country. Up in Waterbury the ''boom'' is tremendous. Large establishments employ ing four hundred or five hundred hands are driven to the utmost. This is cited es an evil denee of general increase of prosperity.

NIGHT CAPs.-A we'll known London doctor writes as follows to morning paper, in re- ply to an American physician, who, in order to induce sleep, recommends half tumbler full of one of the lighter French red wines either CIaret or Burgundy, before going to bed. 1T am quite willing to allow that such night cap,' should it effect the desired end, is better than any drug or chemical, and yet is not without objection. I have been in the habit of using for some time as sporifc, a most admirable and successful night cap, against which no objection can be raised, and which in large number of cases effects the desired end. Immediately before getting into bed, or better still, when in bed, take break fast cup of hot beef tea, that made from half 8 teaspoonful of Liebig's Extract (Liebig Companys Extract of Meat) find to be the best. This soothes and settles the stomach, allays brain excitement and induces sleep."- Morning Post.

Naugatuck Happy.
Thirty-Five Thousand Dollars to Build Connecting Link Between the Two Railroads

Thirty-Five Thousand Dollars to Build
 & Connecting Link Between the Two
 Railroads.
 For some months Naugatuck capitalists and others have been interested in a project to build railroad from that village to intersect the New York and New England road at point known as Osbornetown. Numerous business men of Naugatuck contributed sum sufficient to pay the expenses of survey of the contemplated route, and through the in- strumentality of George W. Cram. con- tractor on the main line, the services of the New York and New Eng land road surveyors were secured in performance of the desired work. The estimates give $16,74O as the entire probable cost of putting the road bed in shape for laying the iron. The entire distance ac- cording to survey is 8 little over two miles. It will require POS tons of iron rails to iron the road, at $7O per ton; add to this the cost of 6, 500 ties, expense of laying same with rails, the requisite spikes and joints, and the sum figures SIS, ,0OO, which, added to the cost of building, foots $35, $40, the entire cost of putting the road in shape for rolling stock. Naugatuck people anticipate that ev erything will be booming as it never boomed before in the town, when the Ettls branch is built and running.
