A pleasant evenings entertainment took place at Village church, consisting of recitals by Miss Birdsall, elocutionist of Meriden and Miss Grace Judson, yo- calist of Newtown. They had given a similar entertainment at the Weantinaug hotel New Milford, the evening previ- ous and through the efforts of H. A. Bennett of New Haven, who is here for a short time, they were influenced to come here. We hope they will remem- Der this place again with their presence
 in the future. Part of the proceeds of the entertainment will go into the public library fund, which was started by the Bernard Peter's lecture. Our only re- gret is that the audience was so small to hear them.- New Preston letter.

 A BEE reporter, while visiting Water bury this week, happened in on D. B. Wilson & Co.,, hardware dealers, and en- quiring for Mir Wilson was directed to the back yard. He was found there with a crowd of farmers and mrchants and newspaper men engaged in building a large bonfire. It is the custom of this firm to yearly bonfire the seeds and bulbs left over after the seasons sales and this year, this firm destroyed bush- els of all kinds of seeds, such as beets, peas, cabbage, turnips, onion, lettuce, etc., with over 1000 packages of paper seeds, aggregating some $l00 worth, and the majority of them would have been just as good another year. They follow this custom so that each year they can guarantee their customers fresh and reliable seeds and no doubt they are well rewarded for their honesty.

The Derby Extension.

When BEE reporter inspected the Derby extension, Wednesday, he found that much remained to be done Ill q short time. From the Shelton end, the rails had advanced six or seven miles to Round Hill brook, where the trestle was incomplete. This, however, would be finished in day or two and Mulhall x Harrison's men would finish their section at the same time, leaving everything clear until the trestle near Zoar Bridge was reached. The last bent of the $50 foot trestle was i'll position and raising begun. Wednesday morning. Workmen say that this ought to be done by Satur- day night. if no delays occur. The bridge under which the highway will mass. at W. s. Bradley's, was not begun. Sullivan S Nugent had sent away their men and stored most of their tools at Nil Bradlev,s. Trestles west of this are about completed and the roadbed is ready for the ties, save where the heavy rains have washed it, in some places quite badly.
 Jerry Nolan and his gang of 60 track layers were little more than thre' miles east of Botsford, Wednesday nool and advancing rapidly onward. The. had been hindered by fall of stone il d rock cut just east of Botsford, Tues day morning. The track was somewha
 torn up and several hours elapsed befor
 the construction train could pass. Trout le was also experienced at the permaneI
 trestle at Sherman Botsford's old mi The east end was put up as makeshi1
 until it could be filled solidly and two ! three bents sank couple of feet, Tue : day. While raising the sunken track,
 jack slipped and Tom Barry of Brldg r port, who was working it, fell over bac
 ward. Twenty feet below, he struck o rock, bruising his side, cutting his le e arm and severely wounding his rig
 leg It was feared that the leg "
 fractured and that internal injurl
 would result n Trackmen say that, if kept hard
 Iwork. they can lay rails over the ,d main;ng three or four miles by Saturd at night; workmen on the big trestle s
 that it will be completed then. The C N tractors have had their time extended . rs til the 25th and seem to have no doubt
 completing their task on time.

The Old Homestead.

When skies are growing warm and bright
 And in the woodland bowers. The Spring time in her pale, ftlnt ropes
 Is calling up the flowers; When all with naked little 1ect,
 The children in the morn Go forth and in the furrows drop
 The seeds of yellow corn What a beautiful embodiment
 Of ease devoid of pride Is the good old fashioned homestead,
 With its doors set open Wide! But when the happiest time is come
 That to the year belongs, When all the vale is filled With gold
 And all the air with songs; When fields of yet unripened grain
 And vet ungarnered stores
 Remind the thrifty husbandman Ot ampler threshin9-hoors
 How pleasant, from the dinand dust Of the thoroughfare aloof, Stands the old-fashioned homestead, With steep and messy roof! When home the woodman plods With axe Upon his shoulder swung And in the knotted apple tree Are scythe and sickle hung; When low about her clay-bu1lt nest The mother swallow trlllS, And decorousIy slow, the cows Are vending down the hills; 1 What 8 blessed picture of comfort, l In the evening shadows red, l Is the good old-fashioned homestead, | And it's bounteouS table spread! l And when the wind means wildly, I When the woods are bare and brown, And when the swallows clay-bulf nest l From the rafter crumbles down; When all the untrod garden paths | Are heaped with frozen leaves, | And icicles, like silver spikes, T Are set along the caves | Then when the book from the shelf brougl l And the firelights shine and play, I In the good old-fashioned homestead,
 Is the farmers holiday!
