NINE MILE AND SUNSET
RAILROAD PROSPECTS

| Some weeks ago there was more or
less speculation about railroad build

the field surveying an extension of its
Nine Mile branch and stakes are now
to be seen along portions of its pro-
posed route along that canyon. The
its surveyors were engaged on the
Beaver creek side of the divide The
work of the latter is known to have
extended well up on the mountain. in

1 Wanted, a Name.

General Superintendent c. W. Clark of the 0. N. k is desirous of eliminating some of the confusing names of certain stations which are so similar that it is difficult to distinguish between them in the reports. In the list of names which he submits to the station agents for the consideration of town authorities are Canaan and East Canaan. Evidently it is desired that East Canaan should be called something else, to avoid the possi- bility of confusion. Superintendent Clark writes to the agents: |" wish each of you would take up with the town authorities and obtain from them any suggestion they may have to offer as to the remaining of the stations in question iE order that there may be no simil- arity." Here's a chance for suggestions. What shall East Canaan be called2

 The pumping station of the Canaan Water company is busy again and work ing over time, on the task of filling up the reservoir from the we'll near the Blackberry river.

The absence of pressure all over town and the absence of any water at all in some of the houses on Granite avenue started an inyestiga. tion by the water people and resulted in the discovery of the break.
 It was not long nor difficult job to fix the pipe, and the water already in the service pipes in the village supplied the iwants of the consumers and pre- vented a famine. In the meantime the pumping station was set at work, and from the well the reservoir is gradually filling up.

 To this address, the Secretary D. O. Ki1bourn responded for the regiment, as follows:
 "Mr. President and Members of the Citizens Committee, and all the people of North Canaan:
 "For this most gracious and warm welcome from you and through you from all the citizens of Shis community, we, the few remaining veterans here as- sembled, who really have come down to. you from former generation re- turn our hearty thanks and appreciation of your hospitality.
 i'We feel that we have much to b. thankful for; that we have been spared by the ruthless hand of time while so many lovelier and better comrades are sleeping that sleep that knows no walk tug, " here wars nor rumors of strife will never again bring them to the battle Ii G. We have a country over which Fttse old stars and stripes fl at undimmed and unstained, a nation of freeman en- gagged in all the pursuits of life, libert.T and happiness 8 people who take pride in their ancestry, and, as today, honor not merely the nVlnR heroes, put the memory of the departed soldiers, those who came not back when the conquer ing army unfolded It's tattered banners upon these mountain tops of freedom.
 And am sure that this ovation IS not alone for us who followed the Greek cross of the Sixth Corps, and turned the terrible charge at Gettysburg to rout, or who withstood the solid ranks of the enemy at Gold Harbor, or who for many weary weeks protected the lines at Petersburg, and who broke through the breast works at Fort Fisher and captured fleeing army at Sailors Creek, and finally at Appomattox witnessed the clos ing days of the great Rebellion. It is, l am sure, also for those other veterans who acted we'll their part in that great struggle of half century ago, who have come with us to enjoy this reward of grateful appreciation which is showered upon us and them.
 "And now, MT. Speaker, I can do no less than to agaIn thank you and your people for this kind recognition of our vaior. and this token of your esteem and love"

Jeffrey Skinner, Captain Deane and President Roberts at their head they marched in double file, to the Hall-nearly 150 old vets, who were cheered and applauded all along the way by the crowds of people who lined the walk.
 After the registration was finished President Roberts announced that the business meeting would be deferred until after dinner, and that automobiles were then in waiting to convey the veterans and guests over the "joy ride route that had been mapped out by the committee. AS there were fully twice as many of the visitors present as the committee had estimated for, only about one-half could be taken in the thirty automobiles that had been gener. ously donated by the owners, for the oc. casion, and after the return from the first tour, most of the autos were filled again and made the trip the second time, around the Lakes.
