 Had Big Contracts with the Consol-
 idated Road-Was in New Haven

A GREAT SUCCESS.

The Art and Loan Exhibition at Ply
 mouth Church Chapel.
 The art and loan exhibition at Ply mouth church chapel given under the management of the church committee and the women's society of the church, has been so great a success and the desire to see the operation of the K rays is so great that it has been de- cided to continue the affair again this evening. The X-ray machine is eXhib- tied by Messrs. George Saunders, a prominent member of the church, and George Root, the skilled electrician who planned and executed the magni- ficent electrical display on the green during the Firemen's convention week in August. The machine was purchas- ed at an expense of $50 especially for this entertainment, and is epected to pay for itself in future exhibitions. There is only one other in the city, and that is in the Ya1e observatory. Prof. Smith of the chemical depart ment was an interested spectator of the workings of this new machine, which is one of the latest and most improved make, and pronounced its operation most satisfactory.

A GREAT IMPROVEMENT.
Just Completed in the Tracks at Corne

Just Completed in the Tracks at Corner
 of York and Chapel Streets.
 The Fair Haven and Westville Rail- road company has just completed a great improvement in the tracks at the corner of Chapel and York streets Heretofore there has been a cross-over just above the corner from the east bound to the west bound track, thus compelling all cars to pass over short piece of single track. The east bound track has now been extended to the corner connecting with the double track below. By this new arrangement con- siderable time will be gained and much tedious waiting will be avoided.
