 The first excursion from this city to the popular summer resort, Glen Island, was largely patronized yesterday. About three hundred and fifty people came down from
 Hartford and way stations on a special train.
 Many of our townspeople enjoyed the trip

Fireworks Again Postponed.

 eFs
 In consequence of bad wetting that the fireworks upon the Green received yesterday afternoon in a shower which came up sud- denly just after they had been put up ready for firing, the display had to be postponed. It Is hoped that the weather to-day will per- init of their being put of. If it is not, the first fair day will be the day. Many people stopped yesterday to witness the work Of erecting the pieces, and great inquiry was made all about town to learn if the display would not take place last evening. As the skies frightened up toward dusk, giving prom ise of pleasant evening, many people came into the center, half expecting that the dis play would occur, but as the pieces had been dampened another drying process is necessa- ry. Some dismay was created about town by a report circulated by 6 wsg that owing to the second postponement May or Lewis and the Common Council had sold the l fireworks to Middletown for that city's cen 1 tennial celebration that takes place on the I 14th. This report was believed by some. and the course was reprobated and condemned vigorously until the joke was exposed. The l horse car conductors, the policemen and all l supposed to have information as to whether the display would take place or not were but \ tonholed for information in all quarters of 1 the city. Not few, deceived by the fact that the pyrotechnic pieces were being erected, l came down to the Green with their families. Evidently money spent for fireworks once in

Local PoiitinaI Talk.

The talk among local politicians last even- ing on the street corners and in the club rooms was the probabilities of the nomina- ton at Chicago. A few bets were offered ot five to one that Cleveland would be the nomi- nee, but the takers were scarce. The more eau tious were inclined to the belief that Thur man or Bayard would win the prize, although there were but few, if any, ready to stake their surplus change on such 8 result. There were stalwart Republicans who offered to bet even that Blaine would carry New York State against anyone whom the Democrats might nominate at Chicago. So far as as- certained, however, but few bets were made on any of the propositions

The Housatonic Bridge.

The New Temporary Structure-The New
 Draw of the Iron Bridge.
 The new temporary bridge over the Housa- tonic river is doing it's work well. Trains of heavy weight have been used to test it. and it has been equal to the test. The temporary draw is of the ''jack-knife'' pattern. like those in use near Boston, so called because it swings open from a sort of timber handle
 This draw is one half the length of it's mon- ster iron neighbor. It's hinge rests on tenn porary pier at the west end of the draw open ing. It is so contrived that it's east end must be raised couple of inches when it is desired to allow vessel to pass. The rais- ing will be done by immense pulley blocks and ropes forming fall After the raising
 the drop swings eastward from the main draw At the same moment the latter swings
 westward, thus leaving 8 passage adequate
 for any vessel. The draw has been well con- trived, and from it's look will answer all re. quirements so long as the temporary bridge
 is in use.
 The draw is of wrought iron, POS feet long and weighs 300 tons. It is not revol.
 yer, so called, but return draw, by which is
 meant it opens to certain point, and retra-
 ces when the machinery is reversed, the same
 as all draws on the Consolidated road. The
 Edgemore works of Philadelphia have the contract for this bridge. The bridge from
 shore to shore is about 1, 100 feet, and taking the draws weight basis for estimate the whole bridge will when done weigh about ?, 500 tons It will cost nearly $200, O00 As an investment, the money will pay good in- terest, and in addition aid the company in doing what the travelling public wish, cause trains to move quicker than ever between New York and New Haven.
 As factor aiding to b1ing this about, it is | whispered trains may pass each other on | this bridge, when done, running at 35 miles an hour. The temporary bridge is curious | thing-the victim of circumstances, as il
 were. It may be called a spoon-back bridge | for the reason that the center is lowest and must be approached by an inclined plane. A 1 train from the east draws near the bridge by ! considerable down grade, but the grade is more than considerable when the end of the | bridge is struck. A stranger seeing this | movement might fear for the safety oi | those ln the car; but the train rises | is of towards Bridgeport in a second | On Sunday gangs of men were at work ad- | justing the tracks forming the approaches to | the temporary bridge. and when these are ir readiness all trains will cross. Monday the work of taking down the old structure be- gan and the parts of a new bridge will be | put in place as fast as the old ones disappear | At the end of four months, as is now be- | lieved, the completed structure will begin tc fulfill the duties required of it. It is justice 1 to those doing this work to say that the op
 eration of pulling down and rebuilding be- | gan, has continued and will end without l stopping passenger train.
