Luther Fowler, the mason, is busy laying the foun- dation for cottage on Beach street for Johnson, the clothier of NewHaven. Charles Clark is to do the joiner work. It is under stood that there are several more under con- temptation to be built this spring, and it is not thought that the West Haven shore will lose any of it's popularity because of the an- nexation scheme which is agitsting the city.
 The ladies of the M E. church desire to thank MT. Gamble, the gentlemanly superin- tendent of Malley's dry goods emporium, for kindly loaning the draping for fitting up the stage on the occasion of the late concert Miss Mary Hughes deserves great praise in her successful venture, for she was mainly in strumental in getting up the concert, and she worked zealously to make 1t a success.
 The Congregational folks are getting upan entertainment which will be good, for the young ladies and gentlemen of the church are famous for making a success in getting up concerts and festivals.
 The Masonic brethren will have musical and literary entertainment in their lodge room next Thursday evening, which promises to be an excellent one Besides the local talent they will be assisted by some shining lights from other places. Our little hamlet is not behind any outlying village of the City of Films in giving her citizens musical and literary treats.

 MIR. AND MRS. cHANFRAU.
 A large audience greeted the ''Chanfraus" at the New Haven Opera House last evening, and the play ''Sam" gave general satisfaction. It is long time since Mir. and Mrs. Chan frau have appeared together before New Haven audience, and it is no wonder that they received such a hearty welcome. This afternoon in matinee the company will pre- sent 'sEast Lynne," and this evening 'cKit, the Arkansas Traveller, will be presented. The house will be crowded at both perform ances and seats should be secured at Loomis' this morning.
