PAVING ORDERED AT ONCE
YORK WILL BEGIN ON ORANGE
 STREET.

The Board of Public Works Act Promptly on the Order of the Court of Common Council.
 The city engineer was ordered by the board of public works yesterday morn ing, at a special meeting, to notify the Boston Asphalt company to begin the work of paving Orange street at once. This action of tn: board was in obedi- ence to the order passed over the may ol;s veto by the court of common coun- cil
 The meeting was presided over by His Honor Mayor Herdrick and was attended by President McGann, Messrs. Hoyt, States and Johnson,
 Commissioner States objected to the wording of the communication of Clerk Lyon notifying the board of the action of the court of common council, as it did not contain the words passed by a two-thirds vote" but showed that the resolution was passed by q majority. The mistake was corrected and the communication was received.
 The city engineer was then directed to prepare a suitable notice to the as- phalt company, which is as follows: The Boston Asphalt Company, w. H. Mansfield, Secretary:
 Dear Sir-By direction of the boar of public works you are hereby notified to commence the work of laying the asphalt pavement on Orange street, from Gamer to Grown streets at once, and progress with due diligence until, in the opinion of the board, the weather is unsuitable, and begin again in the spring of 1897 when notified by the board that the weather is suitable, and progress herewith so that the entire time consumed in laying the pavement shall not exceed ninety days, and you are also notified to commence the work of laying the asphalt pavement on Trumbull and West Chapel streets up- on dates and at points to be determin- ed by the board hereafter.
 Yours truly,
 .. w. KELLY. The board instructed the city engin- ger to purchase a portable stone crush CT to be used in doing the work.
 It was reported yesterday afternoon
 
 to prevent the order of the board from being fulfilled.
 It was also stated that the opponents of the contract had retained the firm of Watrous & Buckland to proceed with their case. MT. Buczland, the junior member of the firm, did not know of any such arrangement.
 Attorney Warehouse, who has charge of the legal part of the contract for the Boston Asphalt company, said last evening: we shall proceed with the work at once. We will have gang of men employed in a few days. If our opponents are going to pray out an in- junction it might be as well for them as for us that legal proceedings begin at once. However, we will not wait, but go right on and carry out the order of the board"

Large Audience at the Plantsville
 Meeting

Meeting.
 The camp meeting of the Adventists at Plantsville each day attracts a larg- CT audience, and much interest is mani feste at all the services. The singing at the meetings is led by MT, and Mrs, Neal of Bristol Rev. G. w. Siderquist of Lynn, Mass, preached at the after noon meeting on Tuesday, using chart on which was pictured what he calls chapters in the worlds history, political, ecclesiastical and otherwise. MT. Siderquist last summer was touring through the northwest, where churches were few ard far between and his de- scriptions of the scenes and services among the rough characters amazed many of his hearers whom he kept full ly interested for two hours.
 After the afternoon meeting and while the young peoples meeting was in progress, the annual meeting of the Connecticut Advent Christian Camp Meeting association, as the society is called, was held in the new tabernacle in the rear of the circle. President o. D. Woodruff of Southington presided and Secretary Howard c.

ENTERTxiINMEN1S,
Grand Opera House.


 A strong bill of play was selected by the Grand Opera house management when they procured for their opening attraction a scenic production of Alex ander Dumas celebrated story of The Three Guardsmen." Abounding in stirring situations, alive with strong dialogue, it requires only an ordinary stage interpretation to make program unrivaled by latter day romantic dramas. The company that is to pre- sent it at the Grand Opera house for three nights beginning with the per- formance of Monday evening is a re- putable one in every respect A num- Der of artists in the personnel of the company have been identified with the younger Salvini, Sothern and Warde and James. The stage director, George Clare, was identified with Mr. Salvini in like capacity, and with the scenic and costume adjuncts presents a per- formance worthy of his name
 Paul Cazeneuve, the young actor who plays the part of D'Aftagnan, is fa- vorably remembered here for his work in leading roles with the Salvini com panies. His treatment of the part is said to differ somewhat from that of either Mayo or Salvini, inasmuch as he gives to the character light com edy flavor that makes it more enjoya- ble. The dual scene by the Fort St. Leon is said to be marvel of stage realism, and shows up strong the skill fl,r the capable work of the stage direc- tor. All the accessories, in the matter of scenery and costume will be utilized in making this the best rendition of the play given in this city
