Dr. G. F. Lewis, treasurer of the Bridge port hospital fund, received the $50, 900 ap- propriated by the State toward the building of the hospital from Hartford yesterday morning. The hospital fund amounts now to $1oO,00O, and the success of the hospital project is assured. The site for the new hospital has been secured, and nothing now remains to be done except to decide upon the plans, award the contracts and start the builders. The Standard says: The com mittee will probably decide to erect cen tral building two or three stories in height to be occupied by the admin istrative force of the hospital. It will contain the physicians offices the parlors, kitchens, laundries, drug room and other rooms of that character. The other build ings will probably be one story. The site is something over 500 feet front, and by plac- ing the buildings seventy five feet apart there will be ample room for all the accommoda- tions required. It is proposed to put up buildings enough at the start to accommodate forty or fifty patients, and then add new
 buildings as the city grows and they are re. quired. It is thought that room for forty or fifty patients will be all the city will require until it has about doubled in size. The re-
 mainder of the ground will bs used for gar dens and ornamental purposes until 1t is re. quired for more buildings. The building committee will finish their work as soon as practicable and the work of erecting the buildings will then be pushed forward

State Correspondence.
MT1fnrH.

The position of your paper on the subject of temperance is very gratifying to many in this town. The courage of the Republican convention in placing boldly in it's platform 8 plank favoring constitutional prohibition will gain the party votes here and every where. It is far better for any party to con-
 ide in the good sense of the people on any question than to seek to lead the people against their own will In the end the peo- pie will compel party to do what they will
 Another matter of public interest you are asked to notice: The second crossing west of our railroad station is 8 very dangerous one, both to parties crossing the tracks and to the trains. A short curve to the west bides all trains from New York from view, while a whistle may be mistaken for one from an eastern train. Already several trains have at that point destroyed lives. Why cannot the New York and New Haven Railroad company put gates each side of the tracks, with man to close them in advance of each train, as in other street crossings along the line?> It would be economy and mercy combined.

Why Kerosene Lamps Explode. |.
 From the Toronto Globe.1

lFrom rhe Ioronto dlobe]
 Kerosene is not explosive A lighted taper l may be thrust into it, or flame applied in any way, and it does not explode. On the con trary, it extinguishes flame, if experimented with at the usual temperatures of our rooms Kerosene accidents occur from tive causes !: First, imperfect manufacture Of the article ; second, adulterations. An imperfectly man ufactured oil is that which results when the distillation has been carried on at too low a temperature, and part of the naptha re- mained in it. Adulterations are largely
 made by unprincipled dealers, who add twen- ty or thirty per cent. of naptha, after it leaves the manufacturers hands. The light ! naptha which has been spoken of as known in commerce, under the name of benzine bensoline, gasoline etc, are very volatile, inaammable and dangerous. They, however in themselves are not explosive; neither are they, when placed in lamps, capable of fur nishing any gas which is explosive.
 Accidents of this nature are due entirely to the facility with which vapor is produced from them at low temperatures. But the vapor by itself is inexplosive; to render it so it must be mixed with air. A lamp may be filled with bad kerosene, or with the vapor even, and in no possible way can it detonate or explode. unless atmospheric air has some how got mixed with the vapor. lamp, therefore, full, or nearly full, of the liquid is l safe. and also one full of pure, warm vapor | is safe. Explosions generally occur when the ! lamp is first lighted without being filled, and also late in the evening when the fluid is | nearly exhausted
 The reason of this will readily be seen. In l using imperfect adulterated kerosene, the | space above the line of oil is always filled 1 with vapors, and so long as it is warm an i | rising freely, no air can reach it, and it is | safe At bed time, when the family retire, l the light is extinguished, the lamp cools. and
 portion of the vapor is condensed this
 creates partial vacuum in the space, which is instantly filled with air. The mixture is no w
 more or less explosive, and when, upon the ! next evening, the lamp is lighted without re- ] plenishing with oil, as is often done, an ex- I plosion is liable to take place. Late in the
 evening, when the oil is nearly consumed and ! the space above filled with vapor, the lamp
 cannot explode so long as it remains at rest upon the table. But take it in hand, agitate 1 it. carry it into cool room, the vapor is
 cooled, air passes in, and the mixture be- l comes explosive.

Preparing Plants for Winter. From the American AgricultEriat ]


 It is great mistake to delay the work of by cool nights warning given by blight ing frosts When plant has been taken from 8 pot and planted in open ground it usually out-grows it's former place and is too large for any vessel of convenient size. The root should be cut away to a considerable extent and likewise the top or foliage must be cor respondingly reduced Novices often fail at this point, for they dislike to part with any of the new growth, and set the plant in a pot unpruned and expect, what is not possible that it will flourish. Gut back root system and branch system equally is the rule. Plants when thus transplanted need to be favor ed by being kept in the shade and shelter ed from the drying winds until they have made 8 good start in the pots. Many of the house plants are kept in their pots during the sum- mer and they will need repotting, or the pot washed and the surface soil replaced by fresh, rich earth. larger pot is needed by those plants whose roots have formed a mat along the inner surface. The ball of earth can be examined quickly by spreading the left hand on the vessel-the stem passing be- tween the fingers, and with the other hand on the bottom invert the pot and give the edge downward tap against some object If this does not succeed, pour some water around the edge, and after short time re- peat the operation. All old pots should be clean, and if new ones are used soak them in water until the pores are filled. piece of broken vessel is placed over the bottom hole before filling in the potting earth. All the necessary pots, soil, etc., should be obtained now, that they may be at hand when needed at any time during the winter.
