Oar AngIers-Law Off for Trout Fish. ing-L0oking for HOnses-Places in the Market Dinner Party-Musicale Live Personals.

Doubtless the most interesting event i for great many people in town are l fond of out of door sports, is the fact
 that to-day the law is off for trout
 fishing. and a number of gentlemen
 and ladies propose to try their luck | to- morrow in the brooks up back of
 Greenfield Hill and around Easton. There has been a good demand for | fishing rods and bait at the local | stores. Some of our best and well known lovers of angling, who are I whipping the streams to-day are pr. Hetzel of Southport, Selectman Chas. I Fox, MT. Samuel Wheeler, MT. A. Hol-
 land Forbes. MT. Theodore Sturges, | Mr. Nate Wheeler, who comes home
 from school in Pottsvilie, Pa., with a number of school mates; MT. Bedford | who comes up from New York, Miss
 Theodora Wheeler and her guests from EVassar college, and probably a good many more. There has been talk in town among the lovers of trout fish 1 ing, of forming pool for the purpose 1 of more fully stocking some of the
 nearby streams with fingerlings when | the season closes.
 l Mrs. James Farley still remains in | New York, and her house on Main St., remains closed except when of a Sat urday night young MT. Farley comes up to town and entertains some of his | gentlemen friends over Sunday Dr. Cremon has been in town recent 1 1y looking for a house in which to spend. the summer. It is remarked in | town that a number of very desirable | residences on Main street are in the
 market, if any one has the price. | Among these are the so-ca1led Clucas house, the Brewer residence, the Wal
 lace house and the G. w. Smith res | idence. Because MT. Brewer has re- l gently had his house reshingled and
 otherwise put in order, some of the townspeople have been joking about | the place. to the effect that President 1 Taft has been thinking of occupying it. If the President would only come to Fairfield, a gentleman said yester- I day it would boom the town and he
 would have to put two more clerks in l his store. Like the King of England | the American President is valuable asset. Just now the old town is rath-
 CT sleepy and a little booming would be appreciated. There are two entertainments on the program for this evening-the con- cert by the young people at Hope | Chapel, and the lecture on how o-save 1 the shade trees at the library by a pro- | lessor, from New Haven. | Mrs. Henry Mills and her son, MT. | John Mills, are back in town from a
 prolonged visit to Atlantic City. l A company of five gentlemen arriv ed in town yesterday and went to the
 beach where they intend to spend some | five days at the Belson cottage. l Ground has been broken on center street for a new house, on a lot for | merly owned by Miss Anna B. Jen- l nings.
 A lot of iron fencing has arrived in l town which is being taken to the es- tate of MT, O. G. Jennings. There appears to be a feeling in town that
 fences are necessary to keep out un- desirable light fingered gentry.
 Miss Mary B. Kippen was one of our
 local residents who went to New Ha- ven on Tuesday to enjoy the sym phony concert at Woolsey Hall.
 | A man from Orange, New Jersey,
 was in town yesterday, looking for a place to open a fruit store. He wish
 es to make a change from his present location on account of his health. He is already in the fruit business.
 If all the fears expressed by com mercial travellers and drummers come true, there is to be a decided advance in chocolates, in camphor and in nitric tariff. At all events this is what they say when they solicit orders for the sale of these articles.

 Henry Whitaker, Mrs. Samuel Bulk ley, Mrs. Thomas Bradley and Mrs. Lewis J. Olds of Brooklyn, N. r.
