The different speakers, of whom there were many, declared that the nofse which is made by unmuffied engines is a great annoyance to the public at large. They further showed | how cheaply the engines could be mufed and fhe nulsance remedied. A number of ple appeared before | the committee In favor of the meas- ure for the regulation of the sale of dangerous explosives and fireworks.

State Highway: Hartford, March 18.—The matter bof state highways was heard this after- noon on the floor of the house, which had been granted to the committee on roads, rivers and bridges and the sen timent was strongly in favor of the appointment of eight deputy highway commissioners and it is now rezarded as_very probable that the committee will recommend the passage of the measure appointing them. There was a large gathering before the commit- tee and a long 1ist of speakers were heard. It was pointed out by State Highway Commissioner MacDonald that §to take care of the highways of the te in the 168 towns of Connec- icut, & system of over 15,000 miles, is a gigantic task. He thought that the appointment of the deputies would be an excellent thing, but he was opposed to glving them the power to accept the roads which had been constructed un- der their supervision. He also thought that they ought to have good salaries <o that they could support themselves during the winter months when there is no road making being done. ? Senator Peck appeared in regard to the bill introduced by Senator Fenn, In to the eonstruction of high- ie thought that the automo! orking great damage to the roads and favored making them pay a por- tion of the tax. Te thought the pres- ent highway laws pretty good and that there ought to be no radical change from them. He thought that the highway commissioner shouid re- tain the power to lay out the state highways and that the towns ought not to object to paying their sare of the bills. The persons who appeared and were opposed to the building of roads suance of the injunction. doors of the church were sealed. HALBROOK QUARRIES SOLD. our Ansonia Granite.
