AT BEAVER PONDS.

Land for Public Park Purchased Yes-
 terday for S26, 26,OOO-Twenty-six Acres
 Bought.
 The New Haven town authorities yes terday purchased twenty-six acres of land within the city limits in the region known as Beaver Ponds. With other purchases already made, the land will form an area of forty acres which after much draining and filling will be made into a public park.
 The land purchased yesterday is all north of Munson street and much of 1t fronts on Crescent. It adjoins that al- ready owned by the town and makes a very good-sized holding.
 The tracts of land purchased yester- day, together with the prices paid are as follows:
 Mrs. Adelaide Goodrich, wife of ex- Selectman John I. Goodrich, sold to the town a tract of land on Crescent street of six and seven-tenths acres for $3,65O, which was about the price it was ap- praised at by the late ex-Governor Mor- ris four years ago. The piece runs back into the swamp to the ditch and fronts principally on Crescent street. Most of it is high land and to the northwest there are houses. In the swampy por- tions of it there are some springs of good clear water and ultimately it Is likely that the hollow will be cleared out and lake constructed.
 From the Laforge heirs was purchas- ed six acres of swamp lands, most of only $900
 From George Hopkins was obtained a small piece near Munson street, bound ed on the mort hand west by land al- ready purchased by the town. There
 was a house on it and the price paid
 was $500.
 The largest purchase of land was | made of A. N. Farnham. This piece is bounded on the south by that already owned by the town, west by Crescent street, and north by the Goodrich prop erty. This tract contains six acres. From MT. Farnham was also purchased two and three-fifths acres which he had bought from the Davenport heirs. The total purchase from MT. Farnham was 3-5 acres and the price paid was $4,5O0. Edward M. Clark sold the town strip of land comprising 1 2-5 acres fronting
 on Crescent street and adjoining the | Goodrich property. From MT. Clark was also purchased 121 feet frontage ndanother tract of Clark property with frontage of S1 feet on Crescent street. 1 Still another strip of land with front 1 age of IFS feet on Crescent street was purchased. The total price for all these pieces was g, $50. The town was | desirous of purchasing 75 feet more be- longing to MT. Clark, but they were
 unable to do so as the total appropria- tion had been exhausted.
 It was agreed by MT. Clark that if the next board of selectmen within four
 months buys the 75 feet remaining he will sell it for S200
 These purchases aggregate PIE acres,
 and the price paid was $12,O00.

 ROAD CROSSING.

Was Returning From MiddIebury With II.
 Wales Lines-Aimost Run Over by the
 10;5O Fast Bound Train on the New Eng
 land Road-The Horses Pulled Up Gu ckly
 and the Gate Broken.
 Waterbury, Oct. S1.-United States Senator Platt of Meriden and H, Wales Lines of the same city had a close call of it this morning at the New England crossing on West Main street, a place whose dangerous character has often been referred to in the public press.
 They had come down West Side hill, had gotten over the Naugatuck tracks in safety and were close to the New England crossing when the 1O;50 east bound train appeared and the gate came down with slam, MT. Lines quick work of it in turning his horse around, but so close a shave was 1t that the gate caught in the harness and was actually carried off by the horse; being somewhat damaged The har- ness had to be cut away before the broken gate could be released.
 The gateman was greatly excited and demanded the drivers name somewhat peremptorily. I'll. Wales Lines of Meri- den," was the reply. q shall expect you to pay for that gate" said the guardian of the crossing, to which mo answer was returned.
 A passer-by, who had seen the incl dent, was interrogated by the gateman as to the probability of recovering for the damaged gate. The passer-by laughed and said:
 "If your road gets off without suit for damage which will be a good many times the price of that gate, it may be considered to play in big luck"
 MT. Lines and Senator Platt had ar rived in Waterbury on an early morn ing train and at once drove to the sum- mer residence of J. H. Whittemore, now being built at Lake Quassapaug. They were there an hour or so and then re- turned to Waterbury. Senator Platt took the il o'clock train for Torring- ton.
