 The pavement on Bank street near Porter is being repaired. It was badly in need of 1t and should have been attended to months ago.
 John Kamack who has been spending few days in New York has returned. He saw many fights among the striking longshoremen and the men. employed to take their places.
 Joseph Smith and Frank Ryan saw the ball game between New York and Chicago In the former city yesterday. They were much im- pressed with the game but declare the New York fans are crowd of hard losers.
 Though an outing club was formed some weeks ago by the mem bers of the St Thomas Cadet asso- citation 1t has not as yet gone on an outing. Though 1t was organized for the purpose of having one grand outing during the summer, 1t was ex- pected that 1t would take trips al- most every Sunday.
 The members of the Young Mems Republican club. who were the big guns in the Third Ward Republi- can club which was swallowed by the first named organization, are en- deavoring to get candidates in Brook ly. But they are doing their work in a half hearted way. They were accustomed to rule in the old club but in the new a lot of young blood Is handling the big stick but the lin- CTS are not giving them much sup port.
 ! Edward Donahue, Charles Engle and Attorney Charles Bauby will go on a fishing trip to Litchfield to-mor- row. The trip will be made in the barrister's automobile. The last time that Donahue and Bauby were out together in the machine was one Sunday last summer when they took James D. c. Murray and Jack" Walsh to Bridgeport. On the way home that evening the machine broke down and as 1t was raining, the group was drenched before 1t reached i Waterbury.
 The improvements being made iu preparation of the new Union sta tion go on steadily and though a number of men has been employed \ the past year by the 0'Brien Con- struction Co and the bridge compan- ies who have the job in hand, very little trouble has occurred among the laborsrs This Is surprising In view of the many strikes in other lcities where silmlar work is being done. Of course there have been a flew little quarrels but none of them amounted to anything
 Ut Is now evident that tllere'll be no trolley to Town Plot before the first of July. 1907, and the people of that section will be fortunate If they hecr the rumble of the cars before the first of July, 1908. True the Consolidated road had petitioued the legislature for a charter to build said road but in all probability there'Il be much red tape before the line be- comes a certainty. The Town Plot ters as we'll as the members of both improvement societies in this section are still confident that the line will be built but realize now that 1t will | be some months later than they an- ticipated. But a few months delay will not be 60 bad If the company really means to lay the tracks to the hill. The Brooklyn and Town Plot improvement committee bessme 60 worried over the matter. that it recently appointed some members to ifnvistigzts to see wnat-had happened to the plans for the Town Plot route. etiIl 1t is not likely that the consoli- dated road will try to "squeal'' out of the agreement to give the p<opis of Town Plot q line and perhaps kaa rssso1s fer sone delay.
