NAUGATUCK NUGGETS
Visitors From Colorado Look Over
 Our High School.

George M. Loomis, superintendent of schools, Hammond Pollard and Architect T. w. Cooper, all of the city of Pueblo, Col, were the guests of Superintendent Eaton yesterday. They came here to secure plans and l to obtain ideas for the new high school that is to be erected in Pueblo. 1 They spent about four hours in look ing over the building and made notes of many things connected with 1t. l These men have visited many high school buildings throughout the east, but gave it as their opinion tha: not one which they had visited could equal the Naugatuck high school for general equipment of its interior, and l expressed the hope that they could see their way clear to build one simi- lar to ours in their home city in the heart of the Rockies" :"
 Church Nearly Finished.
 The work of repairing the inter- for of St Michael's church is pro- gressing rapidly and the work of wireing the church will be finished 1 tonight. The decorators started to- day to put the coloring on the ceil- | ing and side walls. For the past two weeks workmen have been busy var nishing the woodwork and washing 1 the walls and now that this partoi | the work is finished all that remains to be done is the decorating and it is expected that this will take at least two weeks more, before the interior can be used for services, and it is said that when the work is completed | it will be one of the finest church edifices in town.
 Bridge Nearly Finished.
 The new iron bridge over Maple street is almost finished. The men who have been at work on it ex. pect to have 1t completed by tonight and as the trestle leading up to this bridge is also about finished and in less than week it is expected that work trains can be run over the Maple street bridge and the work of filling in at the spot where theIlly block once stood will soon be ac- complished. but there is one thing about the new bridge that the men at work upon it say they know nothing about and that Is If there will be any protection provided for those who pass under the bridge either as pedestrians or in teams, against cinders or any kind of a nuisance that might fall through, this is matter that deserves the attention of the public so that 1t l ha Satflnl in fhaf xxyi1f bring with 1t general satisfaction.
