A new departure for Bridgeport is the opening of veterinary hospital on liar rison street by J. Brizsll, M. R. o. V. s., for the better care of sick or diseased horses or dogs. Mir Brizell is graduate of veterinary hospitals in England, but for some time past has lived down in the blue grass regions of Kentucky, where the trorters are bred. By having horses brought to this hospital they can be car ed for more cheaply and with more care than were it necessaryfor the veterinary to visit them, although he will hold him self in readiness to answer calls if desir- ed. No doubt this hospital will meet with favor among horsemen.

CHRISTMAS EVE AT THE coNGREGATIoNAL
 CHURCH.

An innovation is to be made this year In the Sunday. school celebration of Christmas at the Congregational church. A tree is to be provided for the children, trimmed prettily, and much of the pro- gram will conform to thoughts suggest ed by the evergreen tree. Because some surprises are being planned for the chill dren, much cannot be told them before hand. Itis needless to urge the children to come and see what the surprises are. The date of the festival is Christmas eve, Tuesday, December 24, and the hour for gathering 7.30 o'clock.
