A DAYS OUTING.
St. Joseph's I. A. Society Has Annual
Excursion Planned.

Saturday, August 9th, is the day and
date of st Joseph's L. A. society's an
nual excursion to New York and Coney
Island st Joseph's society have prac-
tlcally completed arrangements for
their annual excursion.
Inc excursion this year will go by
way of the Consolidated railroad to
bfldgeport, from which place it will
TAKE the boat to New York, stopping at
lnlrty- first street to let off those who
wish to visit New York city. Continu-
ing on the boat will proceed to Coney
Island, where the excursionists will
nave ample time to see this famous
summer resort. The society is to be
congratulated for having been able to
secure for the occasion New York's
most favorite excursion boat the iron
steamboat Sirius, which is acknowl-
edged by all to be the safest and fleet
est boat for excursion purposes.
Every little detail that will tend to
contribute TO the comfort and pleasure
or Its patrons will be zealously looked
| after by the society, in order to keep
up Its name of being the promoter of
the most popular excursion that leaves
the Naugatuck valley.
Arrangements have been made for a
brass band to accompany the excursion
lists, as well as an orchestra for the
accommodation of those who desire to
hear good concert and dance music
One of the pleasant features Of this
excursion is the fact that there are no
Intoxicating drinks sold aboard the
boat, thereby assuring most pleasant
trip for all those who attend.
lis hardly necessary to say anything
In relation to the island itself. Coney
Island is known all over the country
as Americas most famous amusement
resort. Especially has this fact be-
come more noticeable since Luna park
and 'Dreamland' lent their charms to
the ever popular island. Those two
places must be seen to be appreciated,
as well as the many other forms of en-,
| tertainment for the young and old.
Inasmuch as the excursion rates have
been raised by the railroad this year.
the price of the adults ticket from Wa
terbury will be $1.75: half tickets the
same as heretofore, 81.

health, returned here two days ago in
perfect health and so well satisfied
with his life in that northern country
tnaI he is to return in a month. He
mas many interesting things to tell of
the country and his experiences in it.
MI remnant was a clerk in d. e.
Strong,s shoe store when he left here
for Dawson on February %. 1898.
After working claim which didn't
pan out he entered the employ of the
standard Oil Co there and has become
assistant agent. He has written a
number of letters to the Courant
from Alaska, which have attracted 4

Mr. Tenant describes Dawson as
an up-to-date city. From a mining
place it is becoming more and more
home town and this spring he saws
good many marriages took place
there. During the cold season there
are no flowers, which interferes with
the decorative effects Of course, and
when this spring bride carried a
single dollhouse rose as her bouquet

wedding bore heavily on the fact that
the bride carried real flower that

Dawson has telephones, telegraph.
electric lights, public schools. a pri-
waite Roman Catholic school, and four
churches. two of which have pipe or
gans. When Mr. Tenant left there
to come here, May 8, it was the sea-
son of twenty-four hours of daylight
The sun was setting about II O'Clock
and getting up at 100, travelling only
just below the horizon In the inter-
ven1ng time. The sunsets are wonder
full and even when the sun is down
there is light enough to read outdoors.
But In spite of the difference in hours
OF daylight the BUSINESS hours are the
same as here.
Mr. Tenant took the first boat out
this spring, and except for stopping
off couple of weeks at st Louis
practically came right through. He
has been entertained here by l. II.
Spencer. He will soon visit his reIa-
tives in his native town, Hebron, but
will leave for Klondike again August
Regarding the mining as he found
it, Mr. Tenant says that especially
at first it needed very valuable
property to pay to work it. The ey-
penses were and are very heavy.
Transportation expense is less now,
however. as good roads have been
built by the Canadian government, as
good as many of those around here.
