How About DivertinE the Water of Ban
 tam and QuassapauR.
 BRIDGEPORT, Dec 9.-It is @ tremen- dous scheme which the Hartford and local capitalists have in mind in procur- ing possession of the water power on the Housatonic river in the town of Oxford. There are about dozen of them, headed by Robert s. Hinman of Oxford. When the plan was first spoken of it was said that the idea was to build up manu- featuring village but it is learned now that they intend to initiate the capital ists who are chaining Niagara.
 The place chosen for their grand dam is just above the pond of the OusatoniC Water company, at the rapids near the Jackson place and about on the line be tween Monroe and Newoown in Fairfield county and Oxford in New Haven county. They propose to construct res ervoirs, canals, aqueducts, wheel pits and races and take advantage of :, ,00( horse power now running to water. IT order that they may get full legal posses sion of the land they will present pc tition to the general assembly. Witt this tremendous horse power they pro pose to generate enough electricity tC supply New Haven, Bridgeport anC Ansonia and possibly other towns late on. Their petition to the legislature will include request for power to establish the necessary lines to any towns, citie or boroughs in the state. Some very in l fluential men are behind the project ant capital is abundant.

Shop Lifted Goods R.turned.

NEW HAVEN, Dec 9-Charles Nj. Walker, of the firm of Monson & Go, who lost large amount of goods at the hands of two shoplifters, was at police headquarters this morning with a re- quest that two of the most valuable pieces which have been recovered, be restored at once. The pieces in question are fine mink cape and an imported silk waist. The firm would not be able to realize on those articles if they could not have them at this season. The police finally allowed the goods to be marked and sent to the superior court officials to be used as evidence wher the trials come up in the next term oi that court. There is absolutely no es cape for the women and it is the gen eral feeling that they will receive { heavy sentence.

WORLD or SPORTS.

Harvard has sent challenge to Yale for mile relay running race, to be con tested at the annual winter meeting of the Boston Athletic club. Each college is to send four contestants, who will re- lieve one another at each quarter mile. This is an entire ly new departure in college sports and it may inaugurate a new series of contests between the old rivals, as Yale is bound to accept. The colleges have never developed team racing, although the amateur athletic clubs throughout the country have had such races for years.

1ncendiary Fires at Fair Haven.

NEW HAVEN, Dec 9.-The people of Fair Haven are wrought up to great degree. The town has been suffering of late from what the citizens fear is an epidemic of incendiary fires. The night before last two alarms were rung in and last night the people were again frightened by another fire. It was at the premises of Woodward's coal sheds and had it not been discovered in time a serious conflagration might have de- veloped. Beyond a doubt the recent fires are the work of firebugs and the citizens are to provide night patrol to assist the police in catching the incendi- aries,

Sitting around on chairs were some seven boys laughing and applauding the fitted up.

CAN I ASSIST YOU.
 This is what KELLY says to the God dess of Liberty on the Em'grant question. I know the assistance you want and am in a position to give it to you. If you will move castle garden to the west bank of the Mississippi River there you will find great land almost undiscovered and lots of room for honest labor ,and let every emigrant become farmer, because all wealth comes from the Flow and Hoe. Who ever heard of 8 nation with such rich soil as the great West to-day possesses to be overrun with farmers Do this and the necessities of life will be purchased for one.half the price that you pay to day. IS THIS SOMETHING NEW It is something new for Waterbury when one man buys 2,0O0 barrels of Flour in one day. Remember, when you buy flour from this man you buy direct from the mill for $5 30 if you will give my man an empty barrel.
