The Masons.
The Knights Templar and the New York
 Edfct,

A
 Edtct.
 The edict of New York's grand master, prohibiting further intercourse between New York and Connecticut brethren, does not, it appears have any effect as to the Knights Templar of the two States.
 Eminent Commander Cunningham, of Utica Commandery, recently addressed to the Grand Commander of the State the inquiries !: "Does the State edict of the Grand Lodge af- feet in any way the Knights Templar of New York and of Connecticut in their purely ehivalric character? Is member of com- mandery in this jurisdiction at liberty to visit a commandery in the jurisdiction of Con- necticut, and vice versa ?' Grand Com mander Thomas c. Crittenden, of Water town, N., Y., wrote 8 reply in which, expressing approval of the course pur- sued by the Grand Master, he said :: 'In reply to the inquiry as to the effect of their action upon the order of Knights Templar, would say that the order is in no way affected by it. Our relations with the Grand Commandery of Connecticut are en- tirely peaceful and harmonious, and see no reason why they should net remain so. Lodges, chapters and communicates are each practically separate and distinct bodies, although in many respects closely related, as you readily understand, but hold that they are not so closely allied as to require our order to take up the quarrels of the other bodies Suppose for moment that this condition of things were reversed-that our grand commandery had suspended fraternal intercourse with Connecticut-do you think that the other grand bodies of this State would take the same action I apprehend not Our relations with the grand command cry of Connecticut will continue as hereto fore, and trust that nothing will occur to disturb the friendship that now exists, and that the grand characteristics of our order Charity and Hospitality-wilI continue Eto prevail in both jurisdictions.

Depot Improvements at Bridgeport.

The depot improvements at Bridgeport have been decided upon. The Standard says: 1.-The frogs and switches at the upper end of the depot will be removed about seventy feet farther north, and it is possible that the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad tracks will be removed few feet further east between the depot and the end of the bridge thus giving more room for the Housatonic tracks, and at the same time partially strengthening the present sharp curve. The water tank now located at the upper end of the depot will be removed to the present site of Hawley $ Beecher's office, and the Housa- tonic main tracks will be moved east to form a junction at the new location of the switches. This will make room enough for a new side track running from the Housatonic main track, south to the north end of the baggage room through the center of the present de- pot. This track will run east of Folansbees building and between it and the main tracks The intention is to run outgoing Housatonic trains upon this side track while waiting to start, and do away with the present practice of keeping the trains standing on the side track opposite the depot. To reach them now passengers must cross the main tracks and run the risk of crossing ahead of pass ing trains, but under the new plan passen- gers will step on board from the depot plat form with safety and with much more con- venience. The present depot platform will be extended further north between this side track and the improvements include other matters.

RunaWmYa.

Yesterday noon Dr. Dorman's horse and carriage created a runaway excitement on Howard avenue. The doctor had gone into a house at the junction of South and Park streets, leaving his team with his boy and an other boy. Up came the nondescript cart or wheelbarrow covered with old carpets and rags, propelled by a colored man named Free man. The horse, like a sensible animal, not at all relishing the appearance of the fright full looking concern, started off on @ run One of the boys had leaped out; the other, the doctors boy, manfully held the reins. The horse was skipping at lively gait when carman, driving cart, seeing the crisis, leaped of his load and skillfully stopped the runaway, though it was g tight rub.
 Last evening at about o'clock Dr. Ames' carriage, of West Haven, was run into on Church street by lumber wagon and the doctor and lady with him were thrown out They fortunately escaped serious injuries. The lumber wagon went on at rapid rate.
