 The New Haven Yacht club enters upon the yachting season with prospects never finer or more hattering.

The club will have three ladies' days this year, one each in June, July and August. These always interesting society events promise to equal if not surpass any of the past records for success and bril- liancy. The time of the annual cruise has not been determined, but special pressure will be brought to bear upon all the yacht owners to have them all turn out into line with their boats for the occasicn, in order that the sail will be one of the best on record. In all probability the cruise will be made in the latter part of July or in early August MT. c.

Comm1rrKE on srRRErs.
What That Committee Did Last Might.

Night.
 At the meeting of the committee on streets last night ex-Alderman Frank s. Plett sp- peared in favor of the petition for curb on the east side of Hotchkiss street between Chapel and Martin streets. This was op- posed by Philo Chatfeld, Thomas Acker- man and MT. Curtiss.
 Charles H. Goodrich, L. L. Robin, Lester J. Nichols and J. Csssarego appeared in fa- vor of the petition for a walk and the curb- ing and grading on the north side of Hazel street from Shelton avenue to Winchester avenue, and on Newhall street between Ar gyle and Ivy streets. Francis MeKiernan op- posed the petition on the ground that it would improve those streets and would be of no benefit to the residents there.
 W. J. Atwater favored walk on the west eide of Mill River street between State and Beach streets. He said it was almost impos- sible to get through the street on a bad day. Patrick Mccarthy opposed the petition on the ground that it would seriously interfere with his building two or three houses on va cant lots on that street.
 Matthew Kiernan thought it an outrage to the citizens of Mill River street that that street was not extended. Ex-Governor Eng- fish said that he would Tot really oppose it, but he hoped the committee would take into consideration his property that the street would have to go through. He had bought the land with an idea of selling it to some manufacturing concern; and although he had many offers to sell by the piece he didn't want to sell it that way. He was willing to sell at loss of $5, 600 if it could be sold to manufacturing concern and ben eft the city. If the cutting up of this prop erty for the extension of the street would benefit the public he would offer no objec- tions.
 In executive session the committee voted to recommend the following orders:
 For walk and curbing and grading of north side of Hazel street from Shelton ave- nue to Winchester avenue; for 8 walk and curbing and grading west side of Newhall street from Argyle to Ivy street; extension of Mill street between Saltonstall avenue and Chapel street; for crosswalk on the corner of Frank and Lines streets; for a crosswalk on the south side of Clay street; for cross walk on the east side of Maltby street, for a walk on Edwards street from No. 56 to Or ange street; for a walk on east side of Hsl- lock street; for curbing and grading on Hotchkiss street between Chapel and Martin streets; for the curbing and grading of both sides of Gibbs street.
 The following petitions were tabled until the next meeting: For walk on the north side of Lawrence street, between Whitney avenue and Orange street; for @ walk on the west side of Mill River street; for walk on the south of Beach street.
 Signers of the following petitions were given leave to withdraw: For @ concrete walk on First street, for the extension o1 Minor street to Lafayette street.
