The Little RIueaah Coming.

People at Savin Rock are on the lookout for the arrival of the little blue6sh and are getting their fishing tackle ready. As yet none have appeared. Some of these gamy fish have been caught off Bridgeport The Farmer says:
 The earliest of the real, genuine, old-fash- toned ''darbor bluefsh," known among de- voices of piscatorial sport as "snappers," were caught here yesterday. Now this statement must not be misunderstood. While it is fact that for several weeks there have been in the local markets the large size of "harbor blues,'' this is 8 rare occurrence; in fact, it is said to be the first time in eight cen years that those sizes of bluefsh have been taken here previous to the latter part of August. It is ordinarily the rule that the little ones-the 'tsnappers"-appear before the others, and this has been the infallible sign that the larger ones were to follow. It is the earliest of these indications that have been found. In short, the order is reversed this season; the large ones have arrived first.

SOuth1ngtOn.

SoUTH1NeToN, Aug. 13.-some years ago building near the postofice, which is now a meat market and owned by 0. A. Lister. At that time the store robbed of two hun dred dollars worth of goods. The panel of the back door had been partly cut away and the bolt thrown back and entrance made. In place of putting in 8 new panel the hole was stopped up by a board. This board was knocked off the other night and the door opened again in the same manner. There was no money left in the place over night and nothing was stolen. There is evidence that the young boy who stole the cigars recently out of OK ley's news office is guilty of this later at' tempt at burglary The authorities have taken no decided steps in the matter.

Result of The Wheelmakers' COnven.
 tiOn-A Visit TO Saratoga.
 Mayor Holcomb has returned from his trip to Niagara Falls where he went to at tend the convention of the leading wheel makers of the country. General E. E. Bradley also attended the convention as rep resentative of the New Haven Wheel con- pany, and returned to the city yesterday One of the principal objects of the meeting was to establish rate of prices for wheels both in the East and in the West. For eral yeors these two sections have been cut ting into each others prices, resulting in a considerable slaughtering of rates. A divi- ding line has been established between the East and West, it being the eastern line of
 the State of Ohio. Eastern wheelmakers will receive certain price for their goods sold east of that line, and if any of the western manufacturers come into this sec tion they cannot sell below those figures. Neither can the eastern wheelmakers go into the district west of the boundary agreed up on and sell under the rates that the western CTS are receiving there.
 The Mayor spent Wednesday afternoon and evening at Saratoga, and not few of the faces he saw there were those of well known New Haveners, such as Lieutenant Wrinn, M. Zunder, MT. Chat6eld, of the firm of Chatfield 6 Grant, Captain Thomas O'Brien, George H. Sutton, w. H. Warren and Selectman Feldman.
