"The principal work in Connecticut,
! now under way, is the elimination of
some thirty-two grade crossings in
Bridgeport, Conn, and it is expected
that about half of these crossings will
be abolished and the work completed in
the fall of this year. Litigation has pre-
| vented thus far the continuance of the
work, but it is hoped we shall be able
to go on with the balance Of it next fall
or early next spring. When this work
is done it will complete the four track
system between New York and New
Haven, and will leave not a single grade
crossing on the New York division. AT
Bristol, Conn, grade crossings on Main
street, are being eliminated, and new
freight house and relocation of passen-
ger station, ETC., are to be built.
1--WE propose, also, to begin the stone
ballasting of the New London division
soon, and other work is contemplated at
Great Darlington Mass, at Fall River,
Mass, and also on the Naugatuck divi-
sion of this company, between Derby
and Ansonia.

Providence, Warren and Bristol rail-
road in Rhode Island, with electricity,
which we hope to have in operation
some time this summer.

that Mayor Glass promptly vetoed the

say, in substance that if every member

to his profession, the city council would
never pass an ordinance licenseing joints;
and in this the minister is undoubtedly
correct.
In this city is a band of noble, Christian,

who are dong all that they can for the,
advancement of morality, Christianity

that they think, by laying it in their
pathway, will interfere with theireitorts

the leading workers and officials of the
