BARGAINS IN THE FURNITURE LINE.

If one can not own all the new and pretty things that are there, it is won- der to see how much little money will buy at the furniture warerooms of Downer & Edwards at l01 State street, Bridgeport. Walking through the at tractive salesrooms, one bright day re- gently, accompanied by Mir Edwards, he pointed out some of the furniture on which the firm is making a special drive. A quartered ash chamber suit is one of the bargains. This can hardly be told from oak and the bureau contains bevel edged glass, 24x30. It has never before sold for less than $25 but this season it is offered for only SIS, and every suit sold is guaranteed. A little farther on was an oak suit with the same size glass and two high back chair and one com fortable rocker and an ornamental table. This sells for $24. As we were passing through the upholstery department some very handsome couches attracted atten. tion. MT Edwards informed us that through the dull season he had the force busy making these handsome goods for the spring trade, and was now offering them at the low price of $S.50. Among other things very beautiful dining suit with solid oak sideboard at SIP 5; al- so very striking colonial chair for 95 cents were pointed out. But it would be an injustice to the firm not to mention the carpet department. They are selling tapestry brussels at 50 and 60 cents yard and carry to-day brussels, ,moquettes and superior line of ingrains. A car load of Japanese inlaid mattings they are selling at 9 cents yard. They have an extra large display in their curtain de- partment. A speciality is a double fringe double border chenille curtain that they are selling at $2 50 per pair. They are showing some POO different styles. Lace curtains range all the way from $1 up.
 The firm take pleasure in showing their goods to any who may call

GLOVER FARM ANNEX.

That William c. Johnson has managed the business at Glover Farm Annex, the past year, to the satisfaction of the farm CTS who supplied milk, is proven by the fact that April, he reports five new pat rons added to the list, representing an increase of 10 cans over that of last April. There are others who are plan ming to join the number before the sum mer is over. The proprietor, J. B. San ford, has been very prompt the past two years in making payments the first of each month. The large demand, and ready market for Clover Farm Creamery butter makes it possible for Mir Sanford to pay good price for butter through the year.. Square and honest dealing with patrons has won their confidence and we predict prosperous future for Clover Farm Annex and it patrons.

IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN AsER1oUs ACCIDENT.

Last Monday, just as Thomas Bristol was about to drive across the New York & New England crossing near Hawley- vile, blast was set off, near by, by Asa II. Hawley. MT Bristol was looking out for trains and did not notice that blast was going. One piece of stone struck him in the leg, making quite bruise, another struck the horse, another smash cd out piece from the side of the buggy and still another hit one of the ties. Mir Bristol had a narrow escape from what might easily have been a serious injury. Care should be taken when setting off 8 blast that all persons within range of fiy- ing stones are warned.

A SUGGESTION TO THE RAILRoAD.

The railroad crossing at this place is very dangerous one. A serious and all most fatal accident occurred here two years ago. The crossing can be improv- ed by moving the planking further to the east. This would take the road away from the ole Seeley place, which hides the view of the trains coming from the east.
