Many New Cottages Being Erected
 at This Popular Summer Resort
 Many Improvements There This
 Summer-Sale of Property by MT.
 Payne. s..
 The opening of the summer at Short Beach on the east shore has been charac- terized by a season of unparalleled activi- ty. As is we'll known 1t is one of the new est resorts on the sound, yet within the short period since it's establishment it has attained wonderful degree of popularity. And this year it has been improved more than ever before, large number of cot tages having been erected. There has also just been considerable exchange of real estate, about $1O,O0O worth having changed hands. Recently several New York gentlemen bought quite tract of land and propose to improve it in the most elegant manner possible. This will add materially to the attractiveness of the beach.
 Edward Russell, the State street butter dealer, has erected two cottages of rather a superior type and has also made an ad- dition to his other cottage, besides other improvements. Mrs. Churchill of New Britain is very much taken with the beauties of the place and is erecting another fine cottage. She has moved off her old cottage and~ put the new one on it's site. Mir. Crawford, the Fair Hsven undertaken, has completed another very nice cottage. MT. Burr Johnson of New Britain, who is the con- tractor ia g large factory there, is building another cottage. He has spent one or two summers at this beach and likes it very | much. Edward Knowles, the grocery
 man, who, by the way, is the only one at the beach, has added considerably to his store, and West Haven gentleman is building nice cottage right opposite him Bishop Daniel Goodsell has built an addi- tion to his place near that of MT. David Corey of this city. MT. Corey was one of the pioneer cottage builders at Short has built 8 new house. Mir. Killam, the New Haven carriage manufacturer, who | has a large tract of land on the east side | of the bay, is building a nice cottage, te cost over $6, ,0OO, for his own occupation He is also building two others, to cos l about $2, 900 each.
 The entire property owned by T.B Payne was transferred this week to the possession | of B. R. Kelsey of Clinton. The estate in cludes four houses, several outbuilding l and three thousand feet of water front. is valued at $9,000. MT. Kelsey will mak
 various improvements upon the propert.
 and assume possession later in the season
 MT. Payne was one of the earliest resident of the beach and has occupied the propert,
 he has just sold for ten years. He vii
 rent one of the buildings on his former es
 tate for the present, but eontemp1ates re f moving to California during the fall.
 The sea wall here is about 2,000 fee
 long, and is very nicely graded and leveled
 sloping back gradually so that it made al
 elegant place for landing as we'll as flu,
 nishing excellent protection against tn
 waves. Many of the owners of propert

THE COMIC PARADE.

Extensive Preparations for This Uniaue Event TO-night-C1ubs That Will be Represented-mayor Sar- gent and City officials at the Tour nament-The Hartford Club Will Decorate the TOntine.
 Extensive preparations are being made by the New Haven Bicycle club for the coming parades and tournament. The comic parade tonight is attracting more general and widespread attention in local circles than the tournament even. The wheels will be fantastically decorated and the costumes of the riders will be ridicul- ous in the extreme. As comic parade on wheels has never before been given by any club, the ingenuity and the imagina- tion of the participants will have free scope The costuming is kept as silent as the grave, but the grotesaue and pict- uresque will both appear in the various mske-ups. Two prizes will be given for the best appearance and two for the worst.
 The fifty members of the Hartford club will have drum corps and dump carts.
 In one of the carts the band will side, in
 
 fireworks will be carried. The New Haven club will have red fire placed along the line of march. The Hartford wheel men will have their headquarters at the Tontine and will decorate the hotel in gala style..
 Tho president of the league, Colonel Charles l.. Burdett of Hartford, will arrive from Chicago this afternoon and stay at the New Haven house, where the board of directors will also stay while in this city. Delegations are expected at the tourna- ment from the Riverside wheelmen, the Manhattan Athletic club, the Centaur Bi- l cycle club and the Harlem wheelmen, of New York city. the Brooklyn bicyclista and the Queen's County wheelmen, of Brooklyn, the New Jersey Athletic club, | Elizabeth Cycle club and Passaic wheel 1 men, of New Jersey, the Montauk wheel men, the Bay State wheelmen of Worces- ter. the Springfield Bicycle club, the Press Cycle club of Boston, the Rhode Island Bi- 1 cycle club of Providence, the Narragansstt club, and delegations from nearly every 1 club in this state.
 On Sunday afternoon the club and visit ors will have a run to the Pequot house and East Haven. Several hundred will | probably be in line. The Hartford Wheel | club will take dinner at Mansfield park and and the Colts club of Hartford will put up at the Sea View house, Savin Rock. | For the tournament Monday large crowd is expected and exciting races are probable. The report has been circulated that if it rained Monday the races could not be postponed, as some of the contest ants had engagements in New Jersey on | Tuesday and consequently there would be l no tournament This is entirely wrong f as the next bicycle event is on Wednesday at the Manhattan Athletic club meet and if the contestants should stay over til Tuesday plenty of time would remain fol the meet in New York on Wednesday Mayor Sargent and Mrs. Sargent will bt 1 present at the tournament and large number of the city officials also. The Sec ond regiment band will give concert iron one to two, when the races will begin.
