Last evening the Board of Public Works
was in executive session with Corporation
Counsel Driscoll in regard to the dispute be-
tween the city and the Consolidated Railroad
company as to whether jackson street in
Fair Haven was laid out before the railroad
and vice versa. The railroad company think
they own the land where the street intercepts

city owns it and wants to test the matter in
the courts. This was what the secret session
was held for last evening, to decide if it was
best to go to law on the subject.

more of their popular winter trips to the Pa

Towns Going Backward.

Heavy OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Country
Towns Going Backward.
In Canton, CT, there has been a marked
depreciation in the value of real estate in the
past few years. The assessors let the old
assessments stand in the hope of restora-
ton of the old values, but the hope has
proved delusive and the assessed valuations
will have to take a drop.
Similar, only worse, is the case of Croy-
den, once thriving town in New Hamp-
shire, where Rev Mr. Putnam, the old and
much esteemed pastor of the Whitneyyille
congregational church, was born In this
town the value of real estate has greatly de-
preciated and many old places are going to
ruin and decay.
In not a few Connecticut towns, so it is
said, the value of farms has deprecated in
the last generation.
Nash Street Mission.
In order to raise funds to continue the
preaching service at the Nash street mission
(now conducted by Rev. E. M. Jerome) the
ladies of the mission will hold an entertain
ment this evening. Supper will be served
from 6 to 10 O'Clock atlow prices. Recita-
tions are expected from the children and
music from quartette under the direction
of DR.. G. NJ. Bush.
The Nash street mission Sunday school is
a very fourishing organization. It was
started only few years ago and now has
upon its roll of membership $40 names, and
it has an average attendance of about 100
There has been some talk that, owing to the
growth of the mission, it would before long
require a larger meeting room, and the
building of church has been talked of, but
that is still matter for the indefinite flu
ture.
The Fair Haven Pottery Burned.
The stone-ware pottery of Samuel L. Pew
tress, No. II Chatham street, Fair Haven,
was badly damaged by fire yesterday morn
ing between six and seven o'clock The
building was of wood three stories high and
had a long tapering roof, about fifty feet
long and fifty wide, and was about ten years
old. The fire originated, it is thought, from
hot fire in stove on the first floor, which
heated wooden wall until it took fire. The
building was full of stock, which was also
greatly damaged. The building was insured
with Dudley & Son in the Etna of Hartford
for 81 900 and for similar amount in the
for Mr. Pewtress he renewed the policy last
Saturday when the old policy expired He
estimates the loss on the building at $500
and on the stock at 81 800 He said that
the concern would resume manufacturing in
