City-Attorney Lasster. who went over
to Richmond Yesterday, had a consultation

that property. He also made formal demand
on the authorities of the road for the pay

bonds held by the city and received in eG-
change for the citys bond.
UNSATISFACTORY.
II is understood that in both respects
Captain Lassiter's visit was unsatisfactory.

A NOVELTY
In the Way of Road Repatriation
a Road Leading Through Ham,

In the Way of Road Repairing-On
a Road Leading Through Ham,
den.
That part Of State street which lies be-
tween the New Haven city line and the
North Haven line has been repaired by the
Hamden authorities in whose town it lies.
The road has been commented upon by all
the brick men in North Haven, and all
said was favorable. A Telford pavement
has been laid the whole length of the road
with the exception of a few hundred feet
which lies in front Of the Quinnipiac
Brick company's property. This portion
of the road is rather unique and is about
heap of broken brick lying in the yard of
the Quinnipiac Brick company. This was
donated by the company to the town free
of cost by Captain Crafts, under whose
able and energetic supervision the work
has been prosecuted, and the bricks were
dumped into the road and leveled
around. The effect is such that some
brickmen who looked at it say it makes as
nice piece of road as there is in the state
Of Connecticut. The bricks soak up the
water and moisture and keep the road free
from puddles. The repairing of this road
has not all been done this summer. large
portion having been topdressed last sum
mer.
This road is used by q large number Of
the brick teams. These teams can give
any road hard service about as quick as
any kind of wheeling can. The repairing
of this road will make travel from this
city to North Haven much more pleasant
for those who drive out.
The expense of the repairs is borne by
the town OF Hamden and the action Of the
Quinnipiac Brick company saved quite an
item of expense in the way of cartinp and
buying broken stone, and this kind of
street repairing besides being novelty
seems to be pretty effective and desirable.

its goods away, and it was believed for
the purpose Of defrauding creditors. The
company owed the United Growers COM
pany large amount Of money, and the
latter, learning of the matter, brought the
present suit to protect themselves.
Mr. Zacher says that the suit brought by
him for the United Brewers. company

BUSY SUMMERS
For Stoddard, the Noted Lecturer

For Stoddard, the Noted Lecturer.
1t is popular idea that John L. Stod-
dard spends his summers in elegant leisure
when he concludes his lecture season and
repairs to his country home in New Hamp
shire. Nothing could be farther from the
fact. Before the close of each season he is
under way with the work of the next, and
so careful are his preparations that pretty
nearly his entire summer has to be devoted
to hard work. This is particularly the
case this year. Directly at the conclusion
of last seasons lecturing he made trip
to Mexico, accompanied by Mr.. North and
his photographer, over route previously
travelled by Mr.. Burditt, and returned
laden with material which will develop
richly in the lectures on that land, which
will be important features of next seasons
course. The preparation of them will in
volve many weeks of arduous toll, but Mr..
Stoddard finds the theme very promising,
and his patrons will be interested to hear
from him for the first time something about
the new world,
