Early Navigation Of the Connecticut.

In the last number of series of
historical sketches written b. l.. S.
Hayes for the Bellows Falls Times,
are some interesting notes on the era
of navigation of the Connecticut,
back in the DAYS when Windsor,
Hartland and White River Junction
were important sea ports.
River transportation began with
the close of the revolution and closed
a few years after the completion OF
the railroads through the valley.
The Indians were the first naviga.
tors of the river and later, after
white men had settled along the
banks, large flat boats were used
for transportation to and from the
markets of Springfield and Hart.
ford.
From 1894 to 1885 steam was
used to a great extent in transporta-
ton along the Connecticut, both in
towing flat boats and in freight
steamers. The high water mark oil
steam navigation on the Connecticut
was reached in 1891, during which
season a fleet Of steamers piled the
river more or less at all points be-
tween Hartford, Conn, and Wells
River, Vt.
The Charlestown dock was loo ated
near 'Fairy Dell" picnic ground;
at Claremont it was at the mouth of
Sugar river; at Windsor south Of
the west end of the toll bridge on
River street; at Nartland it was
{ known as 'Short's Landing" few
rods north of the present railroad
station, while ut White River Junc-
ton it was located on "The Point"
short distance north Of the mouth
of White river.
The second attempt to prove the
river navigabr by steamboats, was
made by the "Vermont."
! In 1891, the "John Ledlard."
built at Springfield, Mass, reached
the nearest point to Barnet of any
Underwater steamer. She stranded
on bar just north of Wells River
and was forced to give up the at
tempt of goirg farther north. She
was commanded by Capt. Samuel
Mutt, prominent boat builder of
White River Junction, who for some
years acted as superintendent of the
Connecticut Valley Steamboat com
pany. lie was born in 1892 and
died at White River Junction in
1871. A son, Col. Alonzo B. Mutt.
born at White River Junction in
1910, still! resides there.
The "David Porter" was built at
Hartland. VT, and ran between thar
place and Bellows Falls. She COST
$4737.2o. The "Adam Duncan, +"
built at White River Junction, ran
north Of there.

The Refreshing Tomato.

The brilliant color of the tomato
when quite ripe is very attractive,
and when peeled and the succulent
pulp chilled thoroughly, each to-
mato slashed partially through, in
quarters, pressed partially open and
set in cups of crisp, tender green
lettuce leaves, served with French
dressing or mayonnaise, it brings
rest, peace and refreshment to the
victim of the overheated atmosphere
and will cause him to rise up from
such regalement and call the man

constant rubbing and polishing Of
the metals.
Russian candlesticks of hammered
brass that stand four and five feet
from the floor are sometimes used
for a piano light, or simply as an
element of decoration in a dark cor
ner.
Candlesticks are made in glass
shapes in fine or coarse make, the
cost agreeing with the degree of fine
ness of the material. These seem
to have the right setting in rooms
finished in white paint and dainty
furnishings.
