We all recall the in tolerable condition into which the New York company allowed the Boston & Albany to drift, and I am in posi- tion to know at first hand the deter mined and successful work which the Massa chusetts railroad commission performed in correcting the abuses and safeguarding the interests of the people of that commonwealth.

FAIRFIELD

l Thursday last was the 29th anni- versary of the wedding day of Rev. Dr. and Mrs. Frank s. Child. Dur ing the day a number of friends call
 ed to offer their congratulations and in the evening at the Harvest Supper at the church, the bride was compli-
 mented by many more friends. MT. and Mrs. Sartain are reported to have returned home from their wedding trip to Washington and Nor
 folk.
 Rev. and Mrs. Truett, who have charge of the gospel wagon which has come to town, and been placed by
 the side of the road, nearly opposite Beckwith'S ice cream parlorS, think Connecticut is a hard state in which to arouse religious interest MT. Tru- cit said yesterday that they had pen etrated as far as Bridgeport, but now they have turned back and are on
 their way to New York state where they came from. He drew good sig ed crowds in Portchester, but has had hard luck since he crossed the line into this state, Stamford did not pan out very well, and Westport was lit tie better. MT. Truett went into the gospel wagon business about one year ago. It is thought that if he re- mains in town over All-Hallowe'en the boys will play some sort of a joke upon his outfit.
 A box of marble letters has arrived at the library which are to be placed upon the facade of that pulling, in place of the pasteboard letters which for some weeks past have spelled the legend: Fairfield Memorial Library"
 A number of ladies at the Harvest supper sent a bountiful plate of good things to John E. Boyle, who was un- able to be present on account of the rush of business.
 Officers of the law were securing Southport all yesterday afternoon, searching for woman charged with breach of the peace and abusive lan- guage. It was said she was hiding under an assumed name.
 Gov. PenneweH of Delaware was in town for a short time yesterday, the guest of MT. William Buckalwe, who is the proprietor of the aluminium foundry. The Governor visited the foundry and examined the castings, many of which are intended for auto mobiles.
