Club Forming 10 Introduce the Jolly
 Sport Into This City.
 The recent snow has inspired some of New Haven's energetic young society people with the idea that this city ought to have tobog- gan slide and they immediately started to carry out the plan, with good prospect of success. This sbort has proved very popular in many of the northern cities and New direction. Messrs. Joseph T. Whittlesey, w. P. Trowbridge, E. c. Bennett and W. H. Hale have the affair in hand and have al- ready obtained over one hundred suscribers. It is proposed to form club, charging $5 to gentlemen and $2. 50 to ladies as an admission fee. This will entitle the member to all the privileges of the slide and the use of the club toboggans. It is intended to have a New York expert superintend the construction and equipment in order to insure that it is properly done to insure safety, speed and sport.
 P. T. Barnum is erecting a slide on the Bridgeport base ball grounds for the use ot children, old and young, and Dr. Warner, of Bridgeport, is to have one built for his fam fly and their friends. Hartford has already swung into line, and will open their slide to- night if the weather is favorable. w. M. Frisbie & Co.,, of this city, have secured the agency of A. L. Spaulding's goods, and will keep full line of toboggans, etc. It is the intention of the local club to have the slide located somewhere on Whitney avenue, and to have it ready for operation on Christmas day. It will not be long before we shall see Whitney avenue dotted with the picturesque costumes of the tobogganers, which looks something like 8 cross between a dressing gown and horse blanket.
