 the Proper Location.
 The Committee on Bath Houses held @ meeting last evening to hear parties interest ed in the location of bath house at some point on Quinnipiac river in Fair Haven. One thing developed at this meeting and that was that every one who appeared was de- cidedly opposed to the location of bath house at the foot of Lombard street, which has been talked of as the proper place for such public sanitarium.
 Charles H. Webb appeared in opposition to the bath house at the foot of Lombard street. He said he owned the water front at that point and the city had no right to take the land for this or any other purpose.
 Mir. Luddington said it did not seem to him that Lombard street was the place for the bath house. The channel was shallow and narrow. If the bath house was built there it would cause a sand bar to form across the channel which would obstruct navigation. He thought Lewis bridge was the best place for the bath house, if one was to be erected anywhere He thought bath house would not stand the pressure of float ing ice in the spring of the year, but that it would be broken up by the large cakes of ice that float down the river.
 Alderman Bradley remarked that they did not intend to go within twenty feet of the channel.
 Then you won't get twenty cents worth Of water, remarked MT. Luddington.
 Colonel Charles T. Morse told the commit tee that if the city extended Lombard street to the channel they certainly had no right to put building on the street, as they then de- stroyed the purposes for which the street was laid out as highway.
 James H. Goodsen said that bath house located at the foot of Lombard street would surely be broken to pieces by floating ice.
 Henry w. Crawford said there was not one in thousand that lived on the east side of Ferry street that would ever use the bath house if it was located at Lombard street. He thought living on the west side of Ferry street would be as we'll or better accommo- dated at Lewis bridge than at Lombard street.
 The committee went into executive session, and after considerable discussion voted to locate the bath house at the northwest cor ner of Lewis bridge provided the consent of the property owners could be secured and the corporation counsel saw no legal objec- tiop to locating it at that point.

The pleasant face of Joe Murphy made it's appearance at this house last evening in the presence of large number of admirers. There is quaint originality about Shaun Rhue which finds a most happy expression in this delineator of the Irish character. While it is true that the play is exceedingly conven- tional, there is spirit of veracity about the persons in the drama which appeals most pleasantly to the authors sense of fairness. The cast is an excellent one and play their parts commendably. Tonight fKerry Gow' will be revived. The star has made himself famous in this play, which, by the way, em- ploys not little scenic effect. And in the famous steeple chase no fewer than three live horses will be used.
