To bring about the consolidation of
the New Haven and Rovers' Wheel
clubs L. D. Griggs of this city, who
owns the lot on State street, opposite
Grand avenue in New Haven, has made
proposition to members of those cy-
cling clubs that is being favorably con.
sidered. He says he will build hand
some club house, after any design they
may choose, and rent it to them at a
nominal price, provided they can form a
good club. Most of the prominent
members of both clubs favor the plan,
which will probably be endorsed at q
united meeting of the clubs to be held
in the near future. Owing to the
rivalry that has existed between the
Rover and the New Haven clubs, these
organizations have not progressed as
well as they might have done.
Rev Henry Mason Baum is wanted in
Waterbury where drafts of his amount
ing to 500 have been returned pro
tested. Mr. Baum, of course, could not
have meant to have given drafts he could
not meet. 1t must be mistake. He il
a highly virtuous, upright man, for die
he not presch sermon denouncing the
newspaper men of this state for holding
business meeting and banquet or
Good Friday. Surely a conscientious
man who was shocked by such profane
proceedings of newspaper men would
not utter worthless paper. Somehow OF
other, though, Waterbury tradesmen dc
not feel desperately hopeful about hil
return and the remembrance of hil
sanctimonious observance of Coco
Friday doesn't evene encourage them
They would great deal rather be hold
ing drafts of those same newspaper mer
than Of Rev Mr. Baum.--Bridgepor
Post.
