manent Ia prOvements that were made.
The board expended 81. 672.S4 IN the

Cured by the Improvements.
The following resolution introduced
by Judge j. G.. Ramsdell was unan-
imou.ly adopted by the board:

GOOD BOWLING.

The Newtown, or ssHayseed'' bowlers as they are pleased to style themselves, continued their victorious career, last Friday evening, by ssdoing up" the Y. Nj. c. A. team of Bridgeporters that came to town that day. The first game proved close and exciting and was taken by the Newtown boys by 16 points. After this round the Bridgeporters were 'snot in it't and the happy smile that was noticeable on their arrival at the alley, disappeared. They recovered, however, when they gathered around Landlord Leonard $ hos pitable board and partook of light re- treatments of sandwiches, coffee and cake. F. E. Cliff acted as umpire. The Hayseeds are getting up quite reputa- tion and are planning to go to Bridgeport soon to see if they cannot win a game down there. Following is the score:
