DEEP TIRE NIGH
Being Dug at Bridgeport for Cables of
 Connecticut Company.

Acting under requirements laid down by Major Harry Taylor, the Connecti- cue company is having 8 trench dug across tne river at East Washington avenue, Bridgeport, in order that the cables of the company will rest at a point 20 feet below mean low water. Government attaches state that it is ultimately intended to have an IS foot channel north of the bridge and that it is necessary that cables be placed far enough under water at this time not to interfere with future dredging op- crations.
 There is supposed to be an eight foot channel north of the bridge at low water, but on the east eide of the channel there is hardly four feet of water. Vessels with cargoes desiring to unload at wharves north of the bridge do not go up or down the river except at high water.

 Hardly had that been agreed on when one side of the building caved in, which put that location beyond further consideration, although the building is being repaired. It was hoped that MT.

WISE WORDS.

No man knows anything about the
divine friendship who does not ex.
hibit human friendliness.
The noblest work often lies nearest
Only a putty life Is afraid of being
worn out.
The battle of without goes as goes
the battle within.
Duty has a stern face only when
viewed askance.
You cannot become one Of the tools
Of the infinite II you fee from his an.
vii.
No advantage is smaller than that
gained by taking advantage of a
friend.
The man who always does what he
wants is rarely wanted for what he
does.
The best evidence of loyalty to
truth is liberality enough to give all
truth a chance.
Some are interested deeply In
cross-bearing. but only as long as
some one else is doing It.
Some folks think they are resting
in their faith because they always fall
asleep in church.
1t is not strange that men lose the
faculty of reverence when they do all
their worshiping before a mirror

coffee must be the cause Of my trou-
Bile, so got some Postum and had II

of putting my hand in lre after I
