WESTPORT.
THE NEW WATER WORKS.

For nearly generation certain promi- nent gentlemen have been diligently at work with a view of raising the neces- sary funds for building water works in Westport, but it was not until a year ago last spring that their effort were successful. In June, 1891, meeting of the stockholders was held when William l.. Cooley was elected president and the capital stock, which had previously been $50, ,000, was doubled, and plans for the work were prepared. In the sum- mer active operations were commenced and the contracts were awarded. Nearly all the work connected with introducing the water has been completed and act ual service began this week. The im- mense we'll on the Newell property, east of the old bridge, is not completed, and until 1t is, water for fire purposes will be supplied from the river. About 12 miles of mains have been laid and scores of hydrants are all in place. Last week the pipes were flushed and thoroughly cleaned and on Monday the huge stand pipe, it's top being l25 feet above the lev el of the village, was partially filled and thoroughly tested. Everything prov ed eminently satisfactory. When the pipe is full it is estimated that the pres sure in this village will be about 70 pounds to the square inch which will be sufficient to throw stream of water over the tallest building in town I Weekly Record.

LIEUT. wADHAM's LECTURE

The next entertainment in the Y. r. 5. c. F. course of the Congregational church will be the lecture on December 2l by Lieut. Albion W. Wadhams of the United States navy on Life on board a man of war" Lieut. Wadhams entered the navy in 1864. He has served on all stations and visited more than 30 coun- tries. His lecture consists of descrip- tion of the new ships, the duties, drills, discipline, and routine of man-of-War. The lecturer begins with a brief state- ment in regard to the rank of this coun- try as a naval power. A comparison be- tween the old and new ships is made, ,giv- ing such facts in regard to the new ships and their guns as to show what modern warship is like. Commencing with the ties of the officers and men are explained during a cruise on the home and foreign stations. The descriptions of the rou- tine, discipline, drills and amusements are interspersed with thrilling and anus ing incidents. The burial at sea, the su- perstitions of the sailors, the haunted ship, the etiquette at foreign ports, the duties on foreign stations, the rescuing of American citizens, the services rem dered by the United States navy when the English fleet bombarded Alexandria, Egypt, Cat which time Lieutenant Wad- hams was present), will be vividly de- scribed.

RECENTLY KNOWN AS DANBURY
THAT NEW RAILROAD.

Perhaps this looks little like a new short railroad. First steps towards a road from Danbury to point on the New York state line on the west side of Ridgefield have been taken. Articles of association have been drawn. The dis tance is about six miles. The capita stock is named at $550, ,0OO. It is to con- meet eventually with the Harlem road, shortening the distance to New York and hence diminish the time. The derectors named are Samuel H. Rundle, I. W. Ives, D. E. Loewe, William Beck erie, E. Nj. Barnum, c. H. Wilcox of this city, with others of New York. The stockholders named make long list of substantial Danbury buisness men and capitalists. The cost, even, has been es- timated by competent civil engineer. His figures are $575, ,00O,n early. A short cut across the country from Danbury to the Harlem has been much talked of and will eventually be accomplished.
