 GhostIy Five.
 The bicycle race yesterday drew out an immense crowd on Main street, and at 10 o'clock, the hour set for the race, the streets were crowded; but owing to the excavation for the new water mains the opening of Fair street was blockaded, and it was 12 o'clock before the ditch was filled sufficient for passage of the bicyclists. Hallenbeck, Futile and Brogden were started three minutes before 12 o'clock. Brogden on the start ran into dog and lost several feet, but was soon with the leaders. Collett, Hall and Cotbrill started at 12 o'clock, and as they turned the cor ner of Center street the three who had three minutes' start were speeding down Main street, having made nearly one lap. After the first lap it was evident to sll that
 the scratch men were not in the race, as far as the first prize was concern
 ed, and the relative positions were maintained throughout the entire race.
 Tuttle was in the lead and kept it except ing on one lap, when Brogden made spurt
 and passed him on the turn at Center
 street. Brogden was second, and Hallen- beck, althoug gh after the second lap he was far behind the leaders, was in third place. Collett had the lead of the scratch men, Hall second and Cottriu third, and they
 made pretty race throughout all, turning the corners close together. At the finish Futile came in a-fying, closely followed by Brogden, with Hallenbeck in the rear | still third in the race. Collett was fourth Hall fifth, with Cottrell, the winner of tn. last race, we'll in the rear, nearly exhaust ed. He had to bs carried up into the clut rooms.

FAIR HAVEN NEWS.

How the Day Was Observed-Union
 Reli2 tous Services-R emarks by
 Rev. MT. WestOn-The Home Cheer
 of Thanksgiving Entertainment
 Last Evening.
 Thanksgiving day passed off quietly, amid home cheer. There were many fam fly gatherings, and not few visitors from out of town increased the numbers about the festal board. A good many gunners in the afternoon went up to the shoot of Elm City Gun club to participate in the turkey shoot. Up on Fair Haven Heights grand pig contest was the means of ere ating great hilarity for big crowd. There were few games of base and football, in which juveniles figured. Business was generally suspended and the the advice of the president was followed.
 The entertainment given under the au- spices of East Rock lodge A. O. U. A. at Central hall was largely attended last evening and was great success. 'The Farmers Glen," musical and vocal farce, was presented, also "The Mock Iai- tiation," the latter creating great deal of mirth.
 Union Thanksgiving services were held at the Ferry street church yesterday morn ing, the Fair Haven pastors participating in the exercises. Rev. Dr. Hart read the presidents proclamation. The proclama- tion by the governor was not read. Rev. Dr. Sage read the scripture and Rev. D. M. James offered prayer. The sermon was Pearl street M. E. church. His text was: sLet the people praise thee, O God. Let all the people praise thee. Then shall the earth yield her increase and all the ends of the earth shall fear him."
 The preacher said:
 "This is an inspired proclamation by the great king to all the people to praise him. The proclamation also contains promise of the earth's increase and all temporal good. It also contains prophecy. 'The ends of the earth shall fear him. Tho proclamation of the president of the United States and of the governor of the commonwealth are in happy accord with the divine proclamation. They scknowl- edge that tho promised blessings of the earth's increase have been received. The inspired proclamation exceeds the human, as it's promise is good to all nations for all time.
 The earth, according to the promise, has yielded her increase. The year has been crowned with abundant harvest. Man has scattered the seed, but tho scattering would have only the sooner brought him to poverty; but he who slumbersth not has not only seen the movement of kings, but has watched over and caused to germinate each tiny seed, sending the sunshine and the rain, protecting from frosts and storms the baby grain as tsnderly as the mother her child; and the kernels scattered broad cast have produced one hundred fold. The earth has not refused to yield her accus- toned treasures. The old mines still con- tinue to yield the gold and silver and iron, and the new mines have been discovered containing tini And this manufacture of the products of new mine has first besn placed on building to roof in ConnscH-

Fast Progressinx,

The State Street Horse Railroad company had a large force of men at work yesterday at double tracking the road. Double tracks are now laid on State street from Pearl street to Elm street. This work will be extended along the latter street to the cor ner of Church street. There are already two tracks, used by the three railroad com panies, on Church street. As soon as this part of the work is completed a new switch seven hundred feet long will be laid on State street near the establishment of the Forsyth Laundry company. When this is accomplished there will be only 8 short distance of the entire road with the single track. The weather has been remarkably favorable for the work and if the good weather continues the company will com plete all their intended improvements be- fore the severe weather comes
 The double tracking improvement will be much appreciated by the many patrons of the line.
