The weather now in circulation among the
Assumptonites is strictly tirst-class for the
agricultural portion, and no serious aver

is exhibited by either the colored top rails

for me, individually, was brought up to
believe in seasonable weather March should

expected to tote around an umbrella to pro-

And May-oh, gentle, pleasant and rhyme

1t seems to me that March has been run
ming the weather business pretty near all
the way through since 1885 advent, and
right now, when almost every body is think
ing it time for the old fellow to let up on
bellows biz, a perfect miniature hurricane is
scattering my paper around the room, and
raising hjinks everywhere; so, between
the time lost in collecting my loose manu-
script and watching that pretty maiden
holding on to her switch, across the way, the
chances are against my finishing this epistle

 ter the Settlement of All CIGt~s in Full
 A meeting of the directors of the old steam boat company, Hartford, was held Tuesday in that city, at which were present of the board, Charles Benton and Elisha T. Smith, of Hartford; Captain Richard Peck, of New Haven, and Henry Gildersleeve, of Portland. There were present also the trustees of the estate, E. W. Parsons and Allen w. Warner, together with Hon. R. D. Hubbard as coun- sel. The trustees reported that the estate had been wound up, the accounts ac- oepted by the probate court and that $12,212 remained to be turned over to the company. It was voted to call Q meeting of the stockholders to take action for applying to the Superior court to dissolve the compa- ny. vote of thanks to the trustees was passed and the meeting adjourned. The suc- cessful management of this estate by the trustees was noted at the time the final divi- dend to creditors was declared. The claims allowed by the commissioners were paid in full with interest from the time they were allowed Since that time the closing up of affairs leaves, as above stated, over SIP, ,OOo to return to the company. The result was accomplished with an estate from which most of the creditors at the time of the assignment did not expect more than 20 per cent, so complicated was 1t with old lawsuits and heavy unadjusted claims, besides having just incurred very heavy losses on it's boats and buildings by wreck and fire.

The Cooler Veather-The Fire at the
 Shore = HsspItaIitiea Supplied = The
 Prospect Regarding Hose Cart
 Business at the shore is quiet. The cool weather has Iessened the number of summer boarders at the hotels, but the cottagers are there in full force and good many of them intend to remain for weeks yet as they say the nice part of the season is yet to come.
 The bluefshing draws many to Kelsey's wharf every day.
 The fire Tuesday night created quite an excitement. Mrs. Cochrane, who occupied the burned dwelling as boarding house, moved into house near by which chanced to be unoccupied. By dint of pull all to- gether nearly all the portable property in the house was saved. The boarders were Mrs. Updike's family and two others. Two Wa terbury ladies had just left for home that morning. Mrs Updike lost trunk Mrs. Cochrane thinks the fire must have started from the explosion of kerosene lamp in an upper room. She had been up there reading little while before with her son. Landlord Bieelow of the Sea View House generously gave the fremen and others supply of hot
 coffee and oysters to refresh them after theil
 Iabors. Mr. 0. Howes entertained the peo ple burned out at his restaurant yesterday There was no hose at hand to use when tho
 fire broke ont except the street washer al Baldwin's market and this was placed in ger vice This was the first use of the fire hy drants at West Haven for 8 fire. The city
 water, as is well known, was introduced into West Haven this summer. Now that the
 borough has city water and now that there it so much valuable property at the shore the
 movement already started in West Haven tc
 purchase hose cart has received a decided impetus. Had it not been for the ald ron tbe city furnished at the fire there might
 have been a large destruction Of property as the wind was blowing briskly. The city fire
 department of course gives it's aid outside
 the city only through courtesy. A hose cart
 could now do good service with the help oi the city water, there being five inch main with fair pressure.
