 NewtOwn is so near Bridgeport that our ladies, when they go there shopping, do not need more than one days notice of any unusual occurrence in the dry goods line. Therefore the BEES an- nouncement that on Thursday, April 10, the fourth excursion train over the Hous- atomic to Bridgeport managed by w. B. Hall S Co.,, to give everybody a chance to make early choice from their Easter and general stock of dry goods, should be in ample time. The train will leave here at a convenient hour in the morning and eXcursiOnists, as in previous cases, can find their way back at hours which suit them. Arriving at Hall & Co.'S store they will find an array of lovely goods, the like of which never was before seen in Connecticut store, and the prices will be such as to convince the most eco nomical that money can be saved by in- vesting. The main floor of the store is not more replete with novelties than the basement, which has been arranged to display the curtain resources of the store. or the apartments above on the second floor. As stated, this train is to be under the direct management and control of W. B. Hall & Co. and each eXcursionist will be, for all practical purposes, their spec ial guests.
