Our dress goods are getting very low,

Buttons and fringes, gimps and Jets,
And any novelties this season brings.
A the days grow short and windy and cold,
People will need warmer hannels and hose,
And our stock ID sadly In need OF more,
For this year we haven't bought those.
Our blankets too arc almost oil gone,
And our stock Of shswls Il small,
Cottons and crashes and 6anuels and ticks,
Oh, yes, we are needing them III.
Ribbons and ruches too, and gloves,
Corsets and neckties, light and gay
Spool cotton and silk, needles and pins,
And such things you use every day.
All these and very much more We need,
And this we think good reason,
Why Miss Prince went to Boston herself, to select
New goods for our friends this season.

MORRIS COVE ROAD.

Extending the Road to the Forbe.
House - Rebuilding Where the
Track was Torn up at the Cove.
Work was commenced yesterday for the
extension of the Morris Cove Electric rail
road, from Morris Cove to the Forbes
House. After the long and bitter struggle
with few property owners at the cove
which resulted in the courts giving per.
mission to the railroad company to relay
their tracks in front of the summer cot.
tsges, the railroad company began the
work yesterday with a large force of men.
1t is expected that the road will be COM
pleted in about two weeks, and, possibly,
the cars will run to the Forbes House by
New Years day. About rs men are at
work on the job. The new track will be
nearer the center of the street in front of
the cottages than the old one which was
torn up. Its location will be on the side
of the street nearest the water. Thus, af-
ter long litigation the cars will again bs
running over this territory which was 80
long the subject of dispute.

the Uaion depot, continues to burn, and
the efforts of the railroad employees to
extinguish it seem to be useless. The
fire started at the bottom of the coal
pile and has eaten its way to the top, where
the flames pour out. The railroad COM
pany has not yet called upon the FIRE de-
partment for assistance and they have all
the available men in the yards fighting

A DOG FIGHT
In a Barn in Orange Yesterday-A Cry
Of POlice-Sports Disappointed.

In a Barn in Orange Yesterday-A Cry
of POlice-Sports Disappointed.
A number Of sports from this city went
out to witness dog fight early yesterday
morning in barn in Orange between dogs
owned by New Haven and Bridgeport par
ties, but when the sports had only got
comfortably seated to witness the sport
some one among the spectators caused con-
siderable excitement in shouting ''Policel''
The dogs were all ready for the fight, and
when the alarm was given there was wild
scramble for the door. It afterwards
turned out that the party who shouted the
arrival of the police did so to break up the
fight, for there were no officers about the
building. An attempt was made to have
the fight go on, but the owners of the dogs
would not allow the dogs to go in again
and the sports came back to this city early
Yesterday morning greatly disappointed.
