COMMITTEE ON CLAIMS

Corporation Counsel Driscon Raises
 the Point That the City Is Not
 Liable for Damages for Injuries Re-
 ceived on Sunday Except Under
 Certain Conditions.
 The committee on claims, consisting of Aldermen Gallagher and Russell and Councilmen Bohan, Boschant and Fab riqua met in the city hall last evening and considered several claims for damages. Among these was one from Henrietta Stewart for compensation. She claims that the city has taken quantity of loam from her property at Gamer and Me chanio streets and has never compensated her thefefor. Ex-City Engineer Hill, City Engineer Kelly, ex Assistant Engineer Ferry and Sewer Inspector Dillon appeared and testified that the claimant had sent 8 letter giving the city permission to usa as much earth from the land as they might see fit. Decision was reserved in this case The committee voted to table the claim of William s. Wood for damages owing te the non-sppearsnce at the meeting of ths claimant.
 Michael Tunney of Wallace street 3D. peared before the committee supported by ] Q cane in support of his claim against the | city for damages incurred by falling in a hole in the pavement at the corner of East
 and Wooster streets one Sunday in March.
 In response to inquiries by Corporation Couns.l DrtEcoll it was brought out that
 Tunney was simply taking stroll and was l not going to church or on a charitable pur- pose. Under the cid blue laws of the state this would. 80 said the corporation | counsel, debar him from obtaining any
 damages. Attorney James P. Bree ap- peared in behalf of the claimant.

 The last of series of most pleasant en- tertainments that have been given in the parlors of the Church of the Redeemer this winter was held last evening. The socia- bles this winter have been a source of much amusement to the younger people in the church, and coming ss they did to a most successful close last evening reflected great credit upon those who have had them in charge. Last evening 8 charming pro- gram was arranged, consisting of solos by MT. Joseph Porter and Mrs. s. S. Thomp- son; recitations, etc.

The Work on the New Consolidated
 Road OMce Building Rapidly Pro.
 gressing 4,OOO,oOO Bricks to be
 Used in It's Construction.
 The work on the new office building of the Consolidated road is progressing rap idly these bright, warm. spring days. The masonry work on the part of the building facing Meadow street is now practically completed, and the workmen have made @ big start on the Water street portion of the building.
 It is estimated that 4, ,OeO, 900 bricks will be used in the construction of the build ing, fully two-thirds of which are now laid. The outside of the building is con structed of New Jersey terra ootta bricks, manufactured by the Boston Terra Gotta Brick company. The trimmings around the windows and doors and at the corners of the building are of red longmeadow sandstone, and make a very pleasing effect as relisved against the background of the light buff colored terra ootta.
 The entire building measures 524 feet in | length, 292 feet of which face on Water street and 232 on Meadow street There are four clear stories above the basement, I besides Mandarin story which is built on at several points above the fourth story. For instance in the paymaster's depart. ment the iron fire proof vaults are carried | up five solid stories, thus giving ample vantage room All the bricks used in the in nterior construction of the building are the common North Haven red bricks. | George M. Grant Is the contractor for the masonry work. and he is pushing it for. ward as rapidly ss possible.
 In each of the four main floors 8 corri 1 dor runs around the whole length of the building, from which thirtYsfve..ofices open off on the 6rstiaoor and thirty six on the l upper floors. Thus there will be more thar 150 offices in the building, besides the vaults, storage rooms. engine rooms in the basement. The New Haven Steam Heating company are to heat the building, anc some.of the latest steam heating appliances manufactured by Boston firm will b. used. The building will also bs thorough ly ventilated by one of the latest ventilat ing processes.
 When finished 1t will be as complete ant
 well fitted office building as Is to be fount in the country and will certainly be yer,
 handsome and mammoth addition to tn
 business buildings of New Haven.

TO ERECT A CHAPEL

In the Western Part of the City-The
 College Street Church-Ten Thou-
 sand Dollars Subscribed-A Let to be
 Purchased-A Step Toward a New
 Location for the Church.
 The College street Congregational church has decided to locate chapel and perhaps ultimately build church out West Chapel street way, and are now halting, not be- tween two opinions, but as regards which of two lots to buy for the purpose. The two lots under confederation are both on Sherman avenue and Chapel street, one belonging to Frank s. Platt, on the north west corner, the other disgonally op- posite, on the southwest corner. The church authorities have both ! these lots seriously under consideration. and have fund of sic, ,000 which has been raised of late by subscriptions with which to make the purchase. Both sites are elipible, and both large enough. The Platt lot is 100 by 135 feet, the other it l 100 by 15O, The church people view with much favor the idea of locating in the western part of the city. They have fo, years had under consideration the idea o1 moving from their present location on Col 1 lege street to some eligible site in the western part of the city, and various meet ines on the subject have been held iron time to time. Quite recently, as all will remember, the church had an offer to gel their church property to New York par. ties, but the negotiations failed to mater ialize. Some time ago the church authori ties seriously contemplated purchasing , lot on Chapel street, corner of Orcha1t street, and they have had other sites unde consideration, but were not just in tb' right position to buy. Now, though no ready yet to build chapel. they are in position to buy, and intend to buy lsnt and hold it, awaiting the time when the. will build chapel upon it. The idea il view is to ultimately erect large ans fine church edi6cs upon the site A large number of the members o the church, it is said, would in' 1t more convenient to attend church in tn part of the city where they propose to bu, 8 lot, than at the present place of worship Moreover, they argue that with location out in the western part of the city th church has 8 fine chance to grow ii
 strength and members, whereas the city i
 the vicinity of the present place of woI ship is practically all built up, affordin little room for increase of membershi

The New Light Ship

The new light ship Martha Emma, for the New Haven Steamboat company, will leave the dock in two or three days and take up position about mile west of the new breakwater.
 The boat is thirty-foo sharpie and has two masts. The foremast has besn fitted with crosspiecs upon which are fixed two lights. It has two cabins and a fore castle.
 The boat is nicely mo ieled and has been carefully repaired by the carpenter of the New Haven Stesmeost company. The boat is provided with 24inch fog bell in front of the foremast. She will have two watches, one for day and one for night. The boat will fill long-felt want of the harbor and sound navigstors. Capt. Schley said the Connecticut and Thames rivers were we'll lighted to the head of naviga- tion, and that only the apathy of the New Haven people had prevented the providing of the New Haven harbor wa ters with such protection to navigation. He also had recommended first class lightship to be placed off the west breakwater and also system of lights to be located up the channel to assist all veg sels coming in or going out of the harbor.

To the end that Arbor Day, happily begun in this State, may be continued from year to year by the people, and by each succeeding class and generation of children, I hereby designate Friday, May 9th, as Arbor day.
 And Irecommend that the people of this State lay aside their usual activities and observe the day by planting fruit or ornamental trees and shrubs or vines in the public highways, around our homes and public sch pol houses, in gardens, and on farms;
 And that in the schools where are formed the habits and tastes which will soon develop into the public manners and public sentiment of the State, there be public exersises, SO ordered that the schools may be the attractive and honored center of that true love of nature which results in refined tastes and pure morals, and that Arbor Day may promote comfortable, cheerful, and beautiful school rooms and grounds, and thus be a means of invigerating and keeping alive the memory of school days, and an educational force of great utility and power.
