A NUMBER OF SMALL FIRES

Department Kept Busy in Extinguish-
 ing Grass and Rubbish Blazes.
 The fire department was kept busy yesterday extinguishing small fires, none of which amounted to anything, and mostly consisted of blazes among dry grass and rubbish.
 During the afternoon No. S's house responded to three still alarms, all grass fires none of which done any dam age. The first one was at the residence of Harry Johnson at S5 Clark street; the second was in the vacant lot at the corner of Willow and Livingston streets; and the third was in vacant lot at GA Edwards street.
 The alarm from box 27 at the corner of York and George streets yesterday afternoon was due to a grass fire in the yard at 246 George street. The fire had communicated to the fence and that led to the calling of the depart ment. The damage was slight.
 A fire started in the front yard of the house belonging to Mrs. c. s. Smith at 246 George street yesterday noon. It was started by a fire in the grass. No damage was done. The fire department was called out.

NOTES OF MORRIS COVE.
MANY CHANGES AND REMODEL
 LING OF HOUSES.

Park Methodist chapel's Good Year'.
 work-Narrow Escape from smnsil-
 up-Personn', Etc,
 By the sweet songs of the robin, the blue and the blackbirds one would think that the beautiful springtime was near. But where, oh where, is she?
 We will press the beautiful old-fash- toned winter to go, for we have had enough and long to see it quit. The early call for cottages would indicate a lively summer, many families moving in now. If the demand continues prices will be high.
 John Lewis, Morris Cove's residence builder, is remodelling the old Morris house, which was built in 1871, by add ing a fine wide veranda, coat of paint and painting and papering every room. We understand it is to be run as tenn perance hotel. It will be a nice place for a nice class of people.
 MT. and Mrs. Ratcliff, of New York, has returned to the Everett home. A few days after their arrival nice little girl baby came to cheer their hearts. Being their first, of course there never was such baby.
 The grip has selected almost every one here for it's attacks, but all are re- covering now.
 John Lewis is also remodelling the Kennedy place into a pretty summer cottage. It is situated near the Light house woods, on Lighthouse road. MT. Lewis has been a busy man during the fall and winter, having built three new houses and done a great deal of repair ing.
 MT. Ellott's cottage, or home, rather, is a fine piece of architecture, built near the Pequot house. It Is an ornament to the place Walter Sinner, of Morris Cove, drew the plans.
 Henry S. Sinner, jr., has enjoyed his new home this winter with his wife and baby. What is home without a baby?
 MT. and Mrs Burr Crosby make q fine addition to the resident society of the lower Cove. Their attractive new home is much admired. Park M. F. chapel still lives and has done a good years work. The members are looking forward with 9 great deal of pleasure to the Second Sunday in April, when Rev. D. J. Clark. of East Haven, will preach to them at p. m. MT. Clark has the love and respect of the people,
 MT. and Mrs. c. B. Shepard had a narrow escape from smash-up one day last week. While on their way to Branford an automobile came from be- hind their team. It sounded no alarm. Mr Shepard turned his horse to the left so as to give the automobile the right of way. The machine also turned to the left and passed within six inches of MT. Shepard's team. The machine was going at high rate of speed and had it struck the team there would 1 have been no team nor any Shepard. The question is, Did Shepard do wrong in turning to the left? He was driving | in the middle of the road and there was room to pass on either side. As the machine passed the occupants jaWed Shepard for getting in their way. Morris Cove people generally applaud Mayor Studley for agitating Lighthouse l Point, especially the five-eent fare on the trolley, for the abomination of five cents extra from Raynham has lasted 1 too long.
 We are patiently waiting to see what MT. Mellen will do for us. ONE OF THEM.

THE BOARD OF ALDERMEN
(Continued from First Page.)

(Continued from First Page.) by the Consolidated road for it's four track extension in the "cut' A spec ial committee was appointed to consider this matter. The members of the com mittee are Aldermen Sprightly, Wheel CT. Moran. Foote, and McGuinness. Following is the mayors communi- cation to the board on the Lighthouse Point park propositions:
 "To the Honorable Board of Aldermen,
 City of New Haven Conn: "Gentlemen-I deem it my duty to call your attention to the present situ- ation in regard to the Lighthouse Point property.
 When East Rock was secured for park purposes it was the intention of those who were active in securing it for l the city to secure also West Rock, and also Lighthouse Point, as well as land at what was then known as Oyster Point
 Three of those places have been se- cured by the city for the purposes in | tended. I think no serious effort has | been made on the part of the city to se- cure Lighthouse Point. But the time | has now arrived when the ity must act
 or forever lose the opportunity. ''It is my opinion that we should, if possible, secure that property for 8 public park. It commands a magnifi- 1 cent view of the sound and the harbor,
 and is, moreover, the only shore prop l erty now within the boundary of the | city where clean sea water can be en- joyed for bathing purposes. It is, how
 ever, unnecessary to set forth it's many advantages, for they are already well
 known to all of you.
 T may be pardoned for saying, ill
 passing, that securing Lighthouse Point
 would render possible a project which
 former Mayor Henry G. Lewis favored,
 namely, a system of four parks, as emu
 merated, all to be connected by a drive way or boulevard extending from one shore to the other.
 | Because of the size of the present bonded debt of the city I should not fa- vor an issuance of bonds for any pro- l ject except this. But I regard this
 matter as of vital consequence in the l future development of New Haven, and
 because it will provide a beautiful and
 healthful breathing place by the sea for
 many who need such place, but lack the means and opportunity to go where they are elsewhere. Requirement. of
 the property by the city would make it
 possible to keep it select place, free from annoying features, but at all | times accessible to all of our citizens,
 rich and poor alike. East and West I Tl. IL All. plete reach of the bulk of our popula- tion.
 T would therefore suggest that this
 matter be referred to either an appro-
 priate standing committee or to q spe-
 cial committee, to be appointed for that
 purpose, to hold hearings to determine
 whether the people of New Haven de- sire that the property be bought, and,

 Mayor" A special committee of five was ap- pointed to look into this matter The committeeman are Aldermen Weiss, spreyer. Elliott, Chadwick and Rick etts
 The orders relating to the changes of fire department locations were unan- imously passed. The mayors commit nication as prefaced to the detailed or ders is given herewith:
 ''The to Honorable Board of Aldermen,
 City of New Haven, Conn:
 Gentlemen: I transmit herewith for your consideration the subjoined orders prepared by the corporation counsel. ''The matters involved in this transfer have been considered and approved by the board of fire commissioners, and it will expedite the matter advantageously both for the city and the railroad com pany if these orders are passed to- night.
 By the proposed transfer the city will retain nearly all of it's present lot and also be given a valuable lot at the corner Of St. John and Artizan streets as far as is required for the engine house. the house to be moved to that corner by the railroad company at it's own expense. This location is the one which was desired by the board of fire commissioners at the time the engine house was erected, but which could not be secured then because of the high price demanded for it.
 With the engine house located upon the proposed site the city will have ten feet between the house and the sidewalk which is necessary for safety, and also twenty eight feet in the rear of the building, a space that can be used for stables for horses. This additional room. I hope, will enable the city to have Sour stream engine drawn by three horses placed in that house, and thus enable the fire department to give better protection to the center of the lefty.
 T would urge upon your honorable board that as an emergency measure you give this matter unanimous consent and put it upon it's passage immediate fly. Respectfullv.
 Signed: John P. Studlev.
 Mayor. Many petitions from persons injured by icy walks were read and in a few eases the granting of damages was recorded. A long list of petitions and recommendations to have streets hard ened was also read but they were tabled in most cases.
