 Everything looks bright for the excur- sion of the Senior Temperance and Catho- lie Literary societies to Savin Rock to- morrow. Those who have visited tLe rock this season say it has many new features of amusement Be this as ii may. it has that feature which has rendered it the most desirable place within miles of Wa terbury for n days outing. You can start from home about : o'clock in the morning spend six or seven hours on the sea shore and reach home again on the same day at n selsonable hour. The train will leave the Saugatuck depot at 7:l5 a. m. If you cannot secure a ticket when you reach there get right into the car and some one will pass along and sell you a ticket on the way down. Every body seems to be talk ing about it to-day and it is quite probable that the excursion of tomorrow will be the largest ever gwen by those two popu- lar societies.
 rtn .E Il. vicious dogs around this neighborl % during the past month or two is aston ishing. In some instances the dogs have been killed while in other cases they have been spirited away for a few weeks and then brought back when the excite meut cooled of. The other evening a little cur belonging to neighbor of Mrs Wright of Riverside street bit one of her children in the face. inflicting ugly wounds around the mouth. A policeman called down there last night to shoot the dog but it was already disposed of. Some people think that they gre not responsible for the damage done by dog while on the owner s property. A prominent lawyer said to-day that people keep vicious dogs at their own risk and that a man can be compelled to pay damages no matter where the act may be committed and cited the case of a prominent Washington avenue man who had 70 pay quite a good sum for this busi- ness even though the dog was tied in his own back yard wheE he bit a visitor who happened to come within his reach.
 A property owner on Bank street. above Fifth street. who has been reading the articles in the DEMOCRAT in reference to proposed changes in that section. says that far as he can learn there will be no opposition on the part of property owners in that part of the street on account of the change of name. provided the city should change the name of Third, Fourth. Fifth and Sixth streets, to avenues. The fact that First and Second avenues are at the other end of the town does not not make any difference, he said. He thought as soon | as Bank, South Wilson and Clark streets are continued to the city line other thoroushfares will be opened south of and running parallel with Sixth street, and he believed It would be good time to change the present names and call all of them ayen- ues that are now open and use this same ! NsTaA Ehau v-NIsl3 h-N l-i1 @N-rs | Then we would have Third, Fourth. Fifth and Sixth avenues. which would be much more agreeable to the owners of property than the commonplace names by which they are now known. He believed this would would meet the approval of everyone.
