Cong. E. J. Hill Advises Railway
 Men To Garden
Tells the Track Foremen to Raise Flowers-Is a Rail-
 road Man Himself

Addressing the annual banquet of the Grand Lodge of the Order of Rail- way Track FOremen at The Stratfield in this city, last night, Congressman E. J. Hill gave the railroad workers some interesting, not to say startling, advice.
 Congressman Hill first opened in a felicitious manner by declaring that he is railroad man himself. This was received with cheers by the track foremen, who confidently took the statement to mean that Congressman Hill is a consistent worker for most of the big railroads of the country. The Congressman explained himself more definitely, however, by saying that in 1867 he once carried rod for part of stake gang in a party of surveyors who were looking over the land where it was proposed to put a railroad at some future date
 The Congressman then unboSomed himself of the following:
 eff were track foreman, I would learn gardening"
 Seeing the open mouths and aston ished looks which followed this crafty statement, Congressman Hill went on to elucidate:
 T would learn the raising of flow CTS around the railroad station, and I assure you that the time will come when the railroad companies will ap- preciate the artistic as we'll as the use ful. I give this as good tip for you men of the railroad.''
 Mayor Edward T. Buckingham well comed the railroad workers in behalf of the city, and spoke of the import ant nature of the work which devolves upon this body of men who watch over the condition of the rails and roadbed of the great railroads He referred to the Federal Express wreck in this city, and said that he was glad to state that the. responsibility for that disaster did not rest upon the track ,foremen. In concluding he wished the members of the order pros perity. good luck and God speed.
 J. Harry Crosseley extended a well come in behalf of the Bridgeport Board of Trade, President Fred Enos of that body being absent. F. H. Darrigan of Hartford, roadmaster of the western division, acted as toast master and made an excellent presid- ing officer. l.. B. Nickerson of this city spoke for the freight department, and E. J. Manion of New Haven, for the telegraph operators
