THAT INJUNCTION AGAIN.
1t is Now in the Hands of City Attorney
 Terry.

ACAAS'
 People should not be misled into the belief that the railroad commissioners have ,rtiered the dlscontinuance of South River ,4oe street. They have done nothing ex ;ert order the dlscontinuance of the New fork and N w England crossing at South Riverside street and the city has appealed .ne order to the superior court Inc ma.- ter of dlScOntinulng the street rests with the city government. The raill oa1 com ,nissioners have no more power to discon tinue street ill Waterbury than the keeper of the town clock. The injunction gotten cut by Holmes, Booth x Haydens is now i'll the hands of the city attorney, who Is preparing to fight the case. The lnJunc- ton, stripped of it's legal vertlage, cl e. chat the plaintiff Is the owner of d piece of .aud situated i'll Waterbury on the wester- " side of the Naugatuck river, and that .or several years past there has been a street known as South Riverside street, ,..rossing said railroad at grade and crossing the vacnnt part of said track of land to Durnham street. It resists the order of the railroad commissioners and says that the city of Waterbury now threatens to lay !. sewer through said street across the land uf plaintiff here the location of the street Jas been so changed by order of the rail road commissioners for the purpose of emptyiny sewage into the Naugatuck river at another point from where it is HOW discharged, although it now has q discharge into the river at q point above where the city now proposes to discharge it.
 It says that there is not a single dwelling on either side of the street between the railroad and Burnham street and that the ,and on both S:des of the street Is owned by the plain if The rest of the complaint is as follows: The common council has heretofore voted to discontinue that part of South Riverside street, between the railroad and Burnham street and public convenience and necessity does not require the longer continuance of the same. Under the charter of the city the plaintiff will be subject to great and irreparable damage if the sewer is constructed through that part of South Riverside street. and if the same s constructed before the final disposition of the appeal from the order of the railroad commissioners changing the location ot 1 that part of the street the plaintiff may be compelled to pay under the charter, s large stun of money, to wit $3 per foot fol it's whole distance through plaintiffs land although there Is not a house on either side of the street. The city now tl I atens construct the sewer before the decision o1 said appeal, and is proposing to make 6 co tract therefor.
 This was 1e,,d by the city clerk to the board of road commissioners at their special meeting yesterday afternoon and turned over to City Attorney Terry.
 | The statement yesterday that the layout 1 of South Riverside street was acquired by simple fee was erroneous. It was acquired ill the usual way.

The Cu'u and His Wives.

The work of Zulu woman is about twice as hard as that of American farm laborer, and she gets no pay for it. The best thing shc can do is to persuade her husband to buy another wife. When man takes his first wife, as long as she behaves herself and is not divorced, all the COWS he possesses are re- gardcd as her property, and after the birth of the first son, they become his property, and if the husband wishes to take second wife, he must obtain his drst wife's consent and tho necessary cows. Tho succeeding wives become her wives, and the work is divided among them. The second wife may talle a third wifc, or tho third wife fourth, etc, but tho right of veto rests in each case with tho first, or queen wife.
 When the other wives daughters are sold for COWS, the cattle become hers, but tho price of her own daughters belongs to tho husband; naturally a very complicated, but very adequate system of bequcathing prop. erty prevails. Each wifo inhabits separate hut which shc builds herself; this is to mini mizo quarrels, and the queen wifes hut is always at tho right hand of the chiefs house. The fact that sho is bought and sold, is no degradation to tho Zulu woman, but is rather proof of her worth, and tho moro cattle she costs tho more proud she becomes.-WiH. P. Pond in Drakes Magazine

The railroad comm ssune1s' report for 1887 is out. It shows the only railroad building of the year to have been that 0" the Meriden and Waterbury, except short piece way down at Hawleyville to connect the Housatonic main line with tide water at Wilson's Point. The completion of the branches of the Housatonic and Derby vii. bring New Haven into direct communica ton with the New England system.

Orders have been issued for the elimination of 32 grade crossings, and petitions on 37 were pending at the time of closing the report. Some 1,215 grade crossings still remain, of which the town of New Haven has the greatest num- ber-74-and Hartford comes next with 50.
