Affairs About Town. PICTURESQUE VIEWPOINT.

THROUGH BEDDING TO PUTNAM MEMOIR IAL PARK.
 That all of the pleasant drives about
 Newtown do not lie to the north and east, is testified to by those whose good fortune it has been to take the drive by
 way of Bedding to Putnam Memorial Park, which is situated about half way
 between Bedding Center and Bethel. Leaving Newtown by way of Sugar Street, the road plunges immediately in- to the woods, whose cooling shade is most grateful should the day prove a warm one. It is rather lonely road to Bedding after leaving Sugar Street, there being only few houses at Hopewell, in all the six miles. But it is not uuinter- esting, for at many places there are pleas ing bits of scenery, and more lovely drive could not be selected during the time that the laurel is in bloom, for it grows in great abundance down in the Hopewell woods. If not afraid of steep hills it will pay to visit Bedding Ridge first, for it is slightly place and about as high up as it's neighbor, Bedding Center, on the opposite hill top, although be- tween the two places there is a great gulf Cor rather valley) fixed, and the hills leading from one place to the other are unusually steep.
 Taking the north road from Bedding Center,a drive of about three miles brings us to the Putnam Memorial Park, which is the principal attraction of this drive. The state has expended a considerable amount of money in making the place at- tractive. Massive stone gateways are at either entrance to the park and dotted about here and there are monuments and little log cabins which mark spots of his- toric interest. The driveways are care- fully laid out and nicely cared for, there are rustic seats placed about the grounds and down in the valley is pond where boating can be indulged in if desired. The drive home from the park is general ly through the southern portion of Beth el and Elmwood, returning to Newtown on the same road by which it was left.

MR WHEELER OBJECTS TO TkEsspAss1Ne.

If have the right of ownership to the farm which stands in my name on the grand list of the town of Huntington, that right includes everything which grows upon it, wild or cultivated. And any one who takes anything therefrom without my consent, violates the laws of the state of Connecticut, and is rendered liable to arrest and prosecution therefor :! What right has any one to break open our national banks and take money found in their vaults of deposit. But the legality of the right is just as good as to go upon any persons farm and gather any kind of fruit or berries with out the consent of the owners, whether notices of forbidding such taking have been put up or not The moral of the right, based upon the legality of owner ship of land considers everything within it's bounds as belonging to the one hold ing such ownership applying to all with. in the borders of Connecticut or else- where. There are many who trespass upon the individual rights of the farmer in this respect, and it is about time such work was stopped.-[ Written for the benefit of the public at large, by James Beardsley Wheeler, Huntington, July 20,. 1894.

BRIDGEPORT.

TENDERS TO BE USED ON TROLLEY CARS.
 The Traction Company has decided that lenders must be used on the trolley cars. The long string of fa- talities in Brooklyn and other cities since the advent of electric cars has been the principal objection to the introduction of an electrict railway in Bridgeport, where the percentage of children, as compared with the total population, is so large. The fender to be used in Bridgeport is considered one of the best devised to date, being constructed on the scoop-net princi- pie and working automatically.

VICTORY FOR BRooKF1ELD.

The Social Club baseball nine again re- ioice over their success after ball game with the Bethel Lime Kiln club, Satur- day, the score being 26 to l. Umpire Waburton for the Brookfield nine called the game at 4 o'clock. Crowds from the adjoining towns gathered in the field ear ly in the afternoon, and waited with pa- tience for the players to begin. Beehler, who always caters to the wants of his customers, had his bakery stand under one of the shade trees, which was pretty we'll patronized by lovers of pies. The Bethel team arrived in town about ? o'clock, in a carryall, on the sides of which was printed in large letters the word ssMischief," which frightened the mere boys of the Brookfield nine and dis couraged them to play the giants, but Capt Burdick encouraged his team to show their colors, and they did until the seventh inning, when the Bethel third baseman saw the home plate. The game was scored by c. E.. Vroman, superin- tendent of the Brookfield Lime Go. Af- ter the game the captain of the Bethel nine challenged the victOrs for a game, which will be played in few weeks.

Cision should be was, in my opinion, very
impolitic and well calculated to injure
both the State and county Democratic
tickets"
Regarding the local situation, Mr..
purroy said:
For three weeks, in the face of all
kinds of Misrepresentation, | have said
nothing. | am not free to talk now
about business transacted in executive
session, but after election. If the mis-
representations continue, it may be nee
essary for me to explain"
When the news got around the City
Hall that Mr.. Purroy had denounced as
foolish" the action of Mayor Gilroy in
trying to prevent the Committee of Sew
enty's ticket from being attached to
the Democratic State ticket, the poll
ticians wagged their heads and pre-
dicted that an open war was on be-
tween the rival leaders of Tammany
Hall. Purroy was denounced for maxi
ing public the dissensions in Tammany,
and Gilroy's followers said that the
Tammany outlook was bad enough with
out precipitating n war within the or
ganization.
election ''if Misrepresentation of his
conduct continue" was regarded as a
threat. Mr.. Purroy would not specify
the misrepresentst tons. but 1t can be
said on authority that one of them was
that Purroy had brought Straus for
ward and forced him on the Committee
of Eight. The fact Is that Purroy op-
posed Straus, and considered him the
least available man under consideration.
He has also opposed from the beginning
Strauss demand to have the Tammany
ticket alone on the Democratic State
ticket.
Mr.. Purroy Is n rather impusive man,
and predictions were heard to-day that
he might do some explaining" before
election If the Gilroy crowd did not
cease misroprcsenting his course in en-
ecutive meetings.

way this year" said one of the Tam
many district leaders this afternoon

us together. Since Gilroy has pushed
himself to the front there have beer
