 Occasional visitors to this part Of the town rarely leave tho place with out making some comment regarding l the splendid condition of Bank street from the bridge at the Naugatuck liver to Porter street.

The knowing ones claim that the occupants of the place are q lot of politicians who are planning tC do their prettiest for the party iT power, while others feel confident that
 the crowd is made up of an army o1 fellows who are bound to turn out the
 whole crowd and elect new men in stead. But nobody knows for sure ant in consequence much speculation is going on regarding the new club.
