In Connecticut nnd Along the sound-Te
Bosten, Plymouth nnd the Hemes
of llir IMIitrlms.
On the afternoon of Iho day following
our return from the two days' expedition
Seuth, we started northward by way of
Philadelphia atid New Yerk, reaching New
Haven, Connecticut, in time for n lale
supper of steamed cln ins. The trip nleng
the shore line is u very pleasant one, nnd
we walked through the busy streets of
New Haven thaljSatttrclny nlglit w 1th the
feeling that If we Tied taken a long, quick
Jump from home we found the siine geed
old Saturday night at the end of it. The
main street wero as crowded and brilliant
asferth Queen street, Lancaster, en a
Saturday evening, nnd leaving them
quickly me oxplercd the irreunds and
I the many buildings of Yale college. The
wnoie group or buildings, old and
I new shaded by stately elms and qf
I varied architecture, gives nil im
pression or solid worth nnd unlet
dignity. The famous elms are grand
old trees and they arc net mangled In the
outrageous manner practised by many
tree trimmer in Lancaster cyunty. Fi
nally w e devoted ourattcntlen te the afore
said clam supper, and became deeply in-
teresieci in reducing our plies or clams in
the shell. The clam Is twisted out with
thumb and feiellnger, dipped in n hut
butter broth and swallow cd. The operation
is pleasant, pletuiesime, but neteleerant. As
II a result of steamed clams we missed a
through train and concluded te go en te
Hnitferd te pass the night, thetmli dls-
I' covcringteour horror that in thoslateof
Connecticut trains aie net allowed te run
en Sunday. Hnitferd is u very pleasant
place te puss a v hele .Sunday, even when
I ' bent en rapid travel. Of course the most
striking rcature of the w hele city is the fa
mous cnpitel building and park," but Hait Hait Hait
fonlhasinauylengand wldeavenucs beimti
fully shaded and lined with pleasant homes
in well kept lawns. On the main streets
are the heavy and strong buildings of In
surance companies, and the lamiliar names
of great manufacturing firms greet you at
every turn. The city lias many churches,
and of course, we attended sevcral. "The
Church of the Heed "Shepherd " was faceti
ously described by it natlve as "the
hurcll of the holy revolver," and Is w 01 thy
I ui un mint', ii ih iiiuii in modern geiiiic,
or gray stone beautifully curved, and is a
memorial chapel erected by Mrs. Celt te
the memory of her husband, the inventor
of the rcvolver. Over the entrances are
light and graceful getliic arches, and in the
curved ornaments of the south entranee are
cut in stone the barrels, locks nnd all the
parlB of thu Celt's lovelvor. The chambers
and ccntreplu, nnd every screw and spring
may be found by caicful scaich in some part
of the carving, wliile higher up In the wall
may be seen the completed weapon. The
interior of the Iittle church Is ety beauti
ful, with costly brass nnd metal work,
tlaborate caning nnd windows of stained
glass of richest color. The.Sundny school
really forms a large wing of the building,
but is separated from the church by a glass
partition te the left of the chancel. Te the
right of the chancel is a recess occupied by
a sculptured marble group of three Iittle
Celts who died in childhood, nnd the
figures held befere them the bow 1 of a
baptismal font. It is a very appropriate
and beautiful memorial. On the outside of
alargeurch window tilled with splendid
stained glass, there is another scries of
Ingeniously deviscd carvings in low relief;
this time the cpiblcms of the crucifixion;
the hammer, nails, spenge, spcai and
crown of thorns. Driving about
Hartferd later in the afternoon w e passed
the soldleis' monument, a triumphal arch
of striking and artistic design embellished
with carving, and having all around the
top a bread frieze of marching and fight
ing troops. This is in the park and the
magnificent capitol rises high against
the cloudy sky beyond it. In its
proportions and general eflect this build
ing is very tlose te perfection, it it lias net
achieved it ; nnd as a masicrpieee of arch
itecture all Americaus have a right te feel
proud of Connecticut's capital. Though
far less costly, und cry small In cempari
seu, It is mere beautiful and sti iking than
the capital at Albaiiy. In our drlve around
the city, we passed the pleisant and
comfortable looking , home of Mark
Twain, with its back deer te the street nnd
and the building standing at an angle, w 1th
the lawn nnd read en one slde and a
weeded ravine en the ether. Charles
Dudley Warner, General Franklin, Mrs.
Celt and ether well known people lie in
this pleasant shady town which we left in
the very early meining by the "Valley
line." This read fellows the Cenuctlcut
liver te Saj brook Junction and thencowe
travelled along the shores of the sound te
New Londen. The journey down the river
and along the sound is by veiy pleasant
scencry.as. is usually the case in tr.u el near
water. In the neighborhood of New Lon Len Lon
eon there are many summer resorts where
you can see everything in a few minutes or
stay for weeks and make the days seem
minute". The amusements ure bathing in
heavy surf or still water, sailing,
fishing, walking, talking, eating, sleeping
and gazing at the beautiful laud, sky anil
water. Te find the heavy surf and the
fishing yutt must go te ene of the Islands
facing the open sea at the sound's entrance,
and many steamers of many sires are
ready te take you te them. II you go, and
must count yetu days, you had belter be
careful te allow a margin of several In case
of storm, ter when the gales aic wild the
steamboats will net call te take
you back te railieads again. We
were caught and held in durance
of most pleasant sort by heavy steims at
Flshei's island, and when we steamed into
New Londen harbor, tw e da s later, found
sixty-two sailing vessels and three steam
yachts riding at anchor and drying their
palls in the meining sun. Thisspacleus
and picturesque harbor is a favorite puit
of refuge fur sailing craft and jaclits, the
latter furnishing many patieus ler the
Fequet Iieuki, at the harbor entrance.
Hlght across the water from it is Fert
Grlsweld, and a mlle upthosame shore
stands a lefty shaft te the soldiers whose
pdlantly defended the place against the
Jlrltish. Away up the harbor near the
town are the stoue rampaits of I'eit Trum
bull perfectly useless as a defensive work
but occupied by sevcral companies of
artillery. Fitmi the Poqiiet house te
New Louden there is a read along
the sheie of the harbor and many
charming summer homes uie built
along this read overlooking the tme old
harbor where nature seems te have tried
hard te make a perfect site ler a gieat city
'a new Londen. Cnfertun it.ly nature
and the founders of New Louden reckoned
without the Frie canal, the railroads and
the unbridgeable Hudsen, se New Yerk is
great and New Louden little. Hut the lat

attention of any traveler. It has many
(pialnt old houses, and very curious and
crooked old streets as well as mere com cem com
eortables and shady modern avenues. On a

messy and w eathrr-bcatcn, the grass lH
long, and the low wall around the enclos
ure Is crumbling with age,w hllc paths,v ell
marked between the graves, show that the
leople take short cuts through the
place, going te and from their homes. It
Is en a strep hillside, and ever the house

land across the harbor, a glimpse of .the
salt water and the masts and sails of ship

of a sea captain w hit died in 1710, and all
around are curious old sleucs.wlth antlipic
memories about them. The graves of
heroes of the French and Indian wars and
the Involution, the graves of the many
widows left by the brave tnarlncra. who
made our Hag famous en the seas. And
ev or t hese old stones hav e wept geed jioo jieo jioe

something wholesome , In n graveyard

sw Ing of summer travel.
Like most New England towns. New
Londen Is far ahead of Lancaster in the
possession of an excellent library. It oc
cupies a neat Iittle building adjoining the
old graveyard en the hill.
In the afternoon the writer said farewell
te his fellow traveler, who was homeward
bound, and himself took the train for Hos Hes Hos

face of Iho champion was Idealized te a ro re ro
markable degree and exhibited some trace

train en the Old Colony read for the
famous town or Plymouth, where a great
celebration was te be held next day at the
unveiling or a monument te the Pilgrim
Fathers. ThlsJ would have been a great
spectacle but for the miserable manage
ment of the weather bureau, which per
mitted a persistent and heavy downpour
of rain. In traveling te and from Husten
one cannot fall te be impressed with the
pluck of the colenics w he could make any
attempt te live en soil se fearfully rugged
and rocky. The whele country" seems te
be ene vast stene plie with a thin sprink
ling of peer earth te step thev crack, and
yet It has been laboriously farmed, and the
loeso round stones en the surface are
built into luugli walls, the main
tenance of which is, te my mind,
a gieat mystciy. The stenu walls
of Lancaster county aie built or Hat
stone, and yet they will fall down,
while these New Kuglaud piles of round
stones remain llnnly In position. The
fields are very small ; and I noticed seme
cattle tethered, possibly te prevent their
upsetting the fences. The monument at
Plymouth is a very imposing and dignified
work of art, and the enthusiasm was se
gieat, that I was surprised tetlud the event
exciting se little notice eutside of New Kug
laud. The Old Colony railiead wns
quite unable te accommodate the
crowds pressing te the scene in spite
of the heavy rain, but your conespendent
realised speedily that things w cre tee moist
te prove intctcsllng and eiessed ever
the base or Cape Ced te Weed's llell,

shallow waters that lie between these
islands and the south coast of Massachu

Mr. Krlsmau presented the following
message from Mayer Kdgcrley :
leth? Jlvneiabtc the Hilerl mid Cl)iiii (Vina.
eihef the Cily n Istnairter;
(In.Mi.KMKx: Yeu attention Is called te
the very bad condition of the property
known as the Rauck property. The ien ien
steck which carries the water te the
water wheel of the brick mill Is In such
condition as will require immediate repair.
The present jicnsteek has been in use forlie
years. It lias been braced and stayed till the
timbers have beceme se rotten that ordi
nary repairs are no longer Hufilclcut. In
the event or Its giving away, which is
likely te occur at any tlme, the water
would be drawn rrem the Hanck dam and
thereby seriously endanger the water sup-
tily at our new pumping station. The
niildlug era penstock w euld necessitate the
building of a coder dam. The vv hele work
would mean an expense or probably J700.
Necessary rcjalrs are also required te the
loers or two or the dwelling houses, w hicli
would cost an additional 8100. With these
repaiis completed both mills would be in
excellent condition and would net rcipihe
moie than ordinary repairs for years.
I would also ask that an appropria
tion be luade for the purpese of having the
east reservoir cleaned, which is in a very
filthy condition.
I most respectfully ask that action be
taken In the matter referred te, and that an
appropriation be made covering the ex
penses of the work named, as the repairs
te the Hanck mill are highly important te
the safety of our water supply. The clean
ing of the resci veir is equally be, fei the
health and comfort or our citizens.
Yours Very Respectfully,

Mr. Riddle presented the repert of the
street committee. The bids for macada
mizing, sewers and paviiu: Duke street
with asphalt blocks and the lecommenda lecemmenda lecommenda
tlens of the commlttce have been pub
lished. A motion was made by Mr. Wise te
approvetho iccommcndatlensof the coin cein coin
uilttce as te the awards for seweis and
paving Duke street with asphalt blocks.
Mr. Riddle opposed the adoption of the
motion. He said that the recommendation
of the commlttce as te the paving or North
Duke street has caused some discussion
ami feeling among the bidders. All claim
te be competent weikiueu. In the com
mittee meeting he voted against giving the
contract te Hliidcu A. Fritchey. It is an
important plece of work, and councils
should go slew anil give it careful deliber
ation. Hedid net take orseual consider
ation into account. If he was building u
house he would get tlie best workmen lie
could find, and he thought councils should
de the same. He had expected experienced
men treni Philadelphia te be biddeis. He
thought councils should de as the Phila
delphia authorities de. The biddeis are
there asked what exiiericnce they have had
in the paiticular line of work they bid for,
and If ihey had none the bid was net con
sidered. He had nothing te say against Mi,
1 linden, who isa haul w erklng man, and he
deserv es credit for being one. That he could
net supKrt Hindcu .t Fritchey is nothing
against them. Hiudeu A" Filtehey aie net
equal te J. G. (jalbraith and de net pretend
te be. Mr. Oalbraith has been doing tills
kind or work for twcnty-tiveyeais, and he
believed that gentleman te be the only
man of the bidders competent te de the
work.
The law requires city officers te give the
contract te the lowest bidders, but it alcu
says the lowest and best. The idea oc
curred te him that ovcrybedy would he
satisfied if ene square was given te Hiiideu
A- Fritchey, ene te Mr. Galbralth, and ene
te 0tcr Brethers. When the weik was
done the result would show who Is the
best pavier.
He moved te amend that the square en
North Duke street, between Lemen
and James and the diamond be
awarded te Mr. tjalbraith at 2.C7
per squaie yard ; the square from
Walnut te Lemen te Ostcr Hrethcrs at the
same price and the square between Onmge
i and Chestnut te Hindcu V Fritchey at the
j same price, the work te be dene only after
j the property holders guarantee fl,.V or
square and the city railway cemjiany fiV).
Mr. Haines was in favor of doing what
the street committee had rccouiincuded
j with only one dissenting voice give the
contract te the lowest bidder.and lie thought
councils were in honor bound, te de se.

August?, M a. in. This is Iho vlew from
where I write: The vessel tied up at the
pier, OITte the light the Chesajienke liny
glistening In the sun. Leng stretches tir
green shore bordering this Iittle harbor,
into which a dozen craft were driven by
the stiff storm of last night. Picturesque
views meet the eye at every turn. Over
there a gigantic negre under n w hie straw
hat Is putting out In a Iittle sail beat for
the fishing grounds. Higher up Harrv
Hucklus, in a red, white and blue bathing
suit and bare-legged, wades out neck deep
with a ieacli basket In search or oysters.
A half-mlle beyond Lew Hartmaii, Harry
Carsen, Dr. Metrger and the beat's captain
are paying out and hauling in the crab
line. Acress the Pawtuxet river, a mlle
or two distant, the whlte houses or Solo Selo Sole
mon's Island stand conspicuous lu the fore
front, and ene of the natives, who has
come aboard te see "what kind or a
durned picnle this Is, tells us about "Old
Solemon," wlie built the place as an oyster
packing establishment mid then " went all
te shucks hlmseir. " lu mld-rlver lies a
tug beat, with three or four barges in tow,
bound for Washington and waiting for the
headwind te calm down. Vlce Admiral
Hrencman, In a bathing suit the tit or
which would de credit te Woith's milli
nery, Is blushlngly telling Dr. Hess of the
place he bought It whei e moil wait upon
the bustle counter and girls sell the bathing
suits.
Along (he pier a half dozen of the club
sit placidly watching their ciab lines, and
lelinuy llergcr, lu a pink calico suit and
Jockey cap, runs excitedly from ene te the
ether as the serv Ices of his net are i cqulred.
That Iittle speck away out there in deep
water Isa sail beat from which Johnny
Snyder Is fishing for croakers. W. l

Everybody drinks apellinniis this
morning.
Yeu should have seen the mess room
about 0 o'clock last night. Hrniieiuau was

chafing dish; about four pounds or grated
chcese; cayenne pepper, butler, salt, dry
mustaid, beer, ami all the ingredients were
at hand. What a Welsh rabbit that was.
They who had always ate It wanted mere,
and men new tasted 11 who ne'er hail It be bo be

soundness tlie disabled. A Welsh rabbit
every night and a bowl of punch, after
Heusel's picscrlptieu, every midday are
fixed features of the tri and coinprlse
about the only dissipations that are toler
ated en this scientific, hydregraphlu cruise.
We had rigged out and titled up the
"Kate Jenes" byO o'clock last evening.
We had eaten a handsome complimentary
dinner with elaborate menu, tendered te
(he club by "Teny" Lechlcr, at his new
and handsome Iittle hotel in Haltlmoie ;
we had waved adieu te a half sceru or
Haltlinereaus who had extended hospit hespit hospit
able attention, and, as the cm a steamed
out Inte the Patapsco, the geld and crim
son banners or the setting sun shook their
silken folds iu tlie western sky. The trip
could net have been etlicrwise than de
lightful and exhllatatlng; and, as tme alter
another of tlie bay hlcamcis thai iu the
eaily evening looked floating palaces
passed and saluted us, thore was a gonernl
expression of satisfaction that we wero out
ward bound.
Nothing that could be piuvlded was
lacking for coin feri. Huge Ice chests,
stocked with meats, poultry and fish, and
barrels of the molen-,fnilts and vegetables,
with which the Haltlmoie market abounds,
stocked the larder.aud two first-class cooks,
who are lolling out the apple pie ci list for
te-day's dinner, handle it all te the best
advantage.
At l a. m., as we steamed lu here te tin
up for the night, we were greeted with
shouts of wolcenie rrem the " Dandy,"
which vessel, carrying Mr. Haub's (Juarry (Juarry
vllle party, had been lu pert since 7 p. in.,
forced by stress or weather te wait hore
until morning te resume Its trip te Wash
ington. There Is a Iittle wooden shed en the piei,
with a green painted iron box nailed en the
side el' it mid ever It the sign "P.O. Mail
Hex." They tell me the beats that step
here lift the contents and carry them en te
Baltimore. If you don't get this letter you
will net believe in the icgularlty of the
delivery.
The uiute wants a game or crlbbagc.
He has had It; ant) he thinks he would
rather try some ether game. These Lan
caster Heplo are net se dumb as they leek.
The beat and the crab line have Just come
iu. They have ever a bushel or the beasts :
and a prospect or steamed crabs, filed
crabs, devilled crabs, cold crabs and crab
salad looms up and around us. The stou steu
nitl Is making a uiayouauise dressing; the
cook is slicing great lucleus tomatoes, ami
we are awaiting the call for lunch.
Net all are drinking apellluails new.
I'p en the headlands hore there is a
dilapidated plantation and peach orchard,
owned by somebody and fanned by sumo
body else. Fred,the steward's iittle nephew,
and I take a basket and go iu search of
peaches. Thcroare hiiudietls of old trees,
worn out, wasted and neglected. We
saunter through It half a mile back from
the water, undisturbed byauybedy or any
thing except a drove or hungry hogs, the
shape of plowshares, who fellow us up and
peke iu their sharp snouts every time a
tiee is shaken. We gathered at least a half
peck, and iu our waiideiiugs c.ime
across a big fiame .Southern man

building a railroad from Haltiiuore te this
point. Drum Point Is te be a great pert, a
