BRANFORD TOWN MEETING,
Much Discussed Bridge Matter Left in
 Abeyance Sti!l.

Abeyance %Eiil-
 A special town meeting had been called to meet at the town hall at 7:SO in Branford last evening. Two sub jects were to have been discussed, but the meeting adjourned without taking action. Of these one was the proposi- tion of the Tide Water Trap Rock com- pany for the construction of a new drawbridge over Farm River at Short Beach and connecting the two towns of Branford and East Haven. The other was the construction of a high way to Stony Creek and another high way in the upper end of the town. Ac- ton on tEis latter proposal was defer red for one week to allow the select men to present written surveys.
 The old bridge has been matter of contention for several years; suits and counter suits have been commenced both by the towns involved and the Trap Rock company, some of which are still pending in court. The propo- sition made to the towns by the com- pany is for the construction of a suita- ble bridge, the expense for which is to be defrayed by the towns of Branford and East Haven and the Tide Water Trap Rock company equally. A. W. Sperry, civil engineer of New Haven, detailed the plans of the proposed bridge and L. V. Gaylord presented the proposal of the company. After the presentation of. the company's proposi- ton motion was made to indefinitely postpone action on the matter. The motion was carried unanimously.
 Judge Edmund zacher presided at the meeting.

England.
 The biggest Royal Arcanum meeting ever held in New England took place last night in Music hall on Court street Over fifteen hundred people were pres ent, including members from Boston, New York, Meriden, Hartford, Bridge port and Waterbury.
 Over two hundred and fifty candidates were initiated Davenport lodge, of this city, taking the lead with fifty-four. Mayor Studley delivered the address of welcome and speeches were also made by W. A. Griffiths, of New York, John c. Gallagher and other prominent mem- bers.
 The degree was worked on J. Edward Geary, of this city, by Davenport coun- cil with great success. Music of high quality was furnished by an orchestra composed entirely of R. A. men, while the bass solos rendered by Carl Mears provoked thunders of applause.
 The hall was most elaborately decor ated for the occasion, the electrical ap- paratus set up for the degree work be- ing the most elaborate ever used in the state.

A STAG Party

Last night the members of
the Union as they styl.
themselves. We're again enter
tanned at the home of Isaac
Ward. They We're informed
that there was a new crop OF
cider up at the Ward home and
there was dangerof it becoming
hard unless something was
done to prevent it. Of course
it didn't need a very great
amount of figuring to find out
what that something was, so
they procured a conveyance,
and after having hidden away
a couple of watermelons in the
recesses Of the rig, they started
out. The recent rains made
the road somewhat rough, but
that was no drawback to the
party. 1t did not take long to
reach the scene of action nor
was it long before they We're
up to their ears in fun and
amusement. After a portion
of the evening had been spent
in music and singing, water
melon and cider were ushered
in and introduced to the mys-
FERROUS depths Of that lover of
all good eatables, namely, a
young mans stomach. During
the evening musical specialties
on the violin were introduced
by some of the members of the
Union. While they were not
musical successes, they fur
nished an abundance of amuse-
ment for the crowd. At a late
hour the boys departed, wishing
success to Mr.. and Mrs. Ward
and also to their Grand and
Glorious Union" of which the
boys are so proud. ~
