Incendiary Fire In Naugatuck-Nar-
 

The building occupied by the Naugatuck Enterprise was on fire yesterday morning at 2:30 The factory whistle gave the alarm, and in less than eight minutes the Glove company's fire department had stream of water playing on the fire, which was quickly subdued: Investigation showed that the building had been broken open and various articles of furniture and printing material scattered about both inside and outside the building, which had then been set on fire in several places. The inside of the building is a complete wreck, and but for the prompt action of the fire department much damage to other property must have been caused, as the building is in close proximity to the bottling works of May & Richards and to the works of the Glove company

Reopening of The Public schools.

There was marked change about town yesterday only to be accounted for by the fact that the public schools had reopened. The thousands of children who had grown sun-burned and vigorous by life in the open air were away from the base ball lots, back from the sea shore, returned from camping out and the small army was once more en- gagged in climbing the hill of knowledge. The principals report the attendance as at about the usual figures for this time of the year. The places of four teachers belong ing respectively in the Dwight, Skinner, Fair street and Eaton schools were filled yes- terday by substitutes from the training school, owing to the illness of the regular teachers.
 The evening schools open at about the mid dle of October

 The New Haven Opera House was opened
 for the season last evening under it's new
 management. The Wilbur Opera company, which has often given many pleasant enter tainments in this city, was the one to hold
 the boards. The new comic opera ''Estre1la, D by Messrs. Parke & Searelle, was the mu- sical comedy presented and proved quite en- tertaining to the audience. The opera con- tains some very pretty music, which was well rendered by the company last evening, some of the members receiving triple encore. The audience was gradually aroused to considerable enthusiasm toward the last and from the expression were evidently very much pleased with the performance. The company though not large nor comprising great number of talented artists are well drilled and act with pleasing spirit and vim. The performance was one which, considering the earliness of the season, argues well for the future and without doubt before the season is over some of the finest travelling organizations will visit this house. Fans were distributed through out the house last evening for the use of the audience and it is the managers (Mr. WalD intention to see that the comforts of the audience are in every way carefully looked after.

The steamer Philadelphia has carried a very large number of passengers this season, and has proved great accommodation to the public. A pleasanter trip than this to the Thimbles and return it would be hard to devise one more replete with attractive scenery by sea and land People from distance taking the trip for the first time are loud in praise of it, and think that New Haven people are fortunate in this opportunity, and many are the city people who coincide. The few more trips yet to be made this season will no doubt be well patronized, and they now are particu- larly desirable for family parties.

Tea-Growing in the United States.

Victor NJ Hollingsworth, late Divis-
ional Manager ofthe Assam Doom-dooma
Tea Company, has written to the Indus-
trial RerieW letter upon the cultivation
of tea in the Southern States. Where
ever the tea plant has been planted in
suitable situations, even as far north as
New Jersey, it has fiourished. in
Georgia it grows wild from plants set out
by the Department of Agriculture in
1S50-55. Mr. Hollingsworth states that
even if tea were worth no more per pound
than cotton it would still pay better than
the latter, since cotton must be cleared
for, fenced, planted, cultivated, picked
and grubbed out every year while tea
is perennial and needs only pruning and
the manufacturing of the leaf after it has
come into bearing. AS for temperature,
the State of Mississippi stands midway
between Assam and Darjeeling, the two
finest tea-growing distrscts of India. The
rainfall in Mississippi is less than that
of either of the Indian districts, but our
authority assures us that rainfall we'll
ditfussd over the year, and most ample
in the growing months, in fact, little and
often, is preferable to duluge in any
one month. The object of the want of
cheap labor is met by the proof that
labor in Assam is dearer than in the
Southern States. The Bengalese coolie
may be cheap in Bengal, but he has to
be imported into Assam to gather the tea
crop, and costs about $50 per head before
he does a days work. The writer makes
the assertion that one Southern negro is
worth three Hindu coolies. The natural
ization of the tea plant is an object worthy
the expenditure of some little time and
capital, and Mr.. Hollingsworth S
arguments seem to prove that good re-
turn may be looked for.

She nibbled her chicken bone.

She pouted her lips, 81 sweet;

she showed the stripes OF her brilliant hose,
And patted the floor with her feet.
Greasy and brown with her finger tips
She brought the bone to her lovely lips,
With sly glance sidewArd thrown
