But Of course we are behind ou road making. Our roads are exactly where Adam left them. Water bury has not yet produced road making genius. Road-making is among the lost arts as far as Waterbury is concerned. Who is it that has rot heard of the Wa terbury watch, the Waterbury buttons, the Waterbury buckles. :Ee Waterbury lamps, the Waterbury pins, the Water bury brass interests, and last but always first, the WATERBURY FURNITURE co. 20 GRAND STREET? We head the list with SIC, ,00O as an inducenent. Who will follow our example: Town plot will do to hold the fair, and d little of our machinery will make it accessible.

Benefits of Electric Lighting.

There can be no doubt that the reduction of the fire risk to a minimum by the inven- tion and subdivision of the electric light and it's commercial success has contributed in 8 marked degree both to the business enter prise and social happiness of the present decade. Ocean steamships and smaller crafts are now equipped with the incan- descent light, thus giving increased safety to both passengers and crew. In the homo the health and happiness of the members of the family are increased by the freedom from smoke and unpleasant fumes so com- mon in other methods of illumination, and in libraries the comfort and wholesome ness of the steady electric light is now largely appreciated.

 ANTWERP, Sept. 9.-A dense mass of smoke still rises from the burned quarter and hangs like pail over the whole city. The flames have, however, been subdued, and the efforts of the firemen and the troops to prevent their spread have been successful.
 The ruins of the burned buildings are still too hot to admit of much effective work toward recovering the bodies of the dead. but a few were taken out to- day, and enough have been gathered by the brave explorers among tho smoking ruins to make it certain that the death list will not fall short of 200. if indeed it does not largely exceed that number.
 King Leopold and number of his ministers arrived yesterday, and were taken in carriages to the scene of the fire. After spending over an hour among the firemen and the troops at work on the flames, the party were driven to the hospitals where those injured by the explosions are being cared for. Here the King passed from fort to the poor sufferers, occasionally stopping to smooth the pillow and cool the forehead of one of the little factory girls stretched upon a bed of pain. Be- fore leaving the King ordered every thing possible for the comfort of the patients to be done.
 The arrest of Corvillain, the proprie- tor of the cartridge factory in which the explosions occurred, has been ordered.
