These meters are put in by the department, and as a result theré is a great saving in the amount of water used. Attention is given to bad fixtures and leaky joints, which benefits both the department and the property owner. The owner by checking the leaks has to pay for less water, and the water saved all helps, especially at this time, when the reservoir is low. During cold weather in particular | many people allow the water to run all night to prevent freezing. When there is a meter this counts up rapidly, and at times during the present winter, the low supply, places on the high wit] points have been cut off of water there- | by. In many such places and in others where the department has been asked to put in meters, the work has been 2t Department Insal The Bulletin should be delivered | Sixty-Seven Put In Since December First Making Total of Over 300--Leaks and Bad Fixtures then Given At- fits from Rain.

There is a large amount of water which runs to waste through leaks and bad fixt: , and the department has been looking after these: It is claimed that there would not be as much opposition to meters it eople understood how to read them, gul ‘as they do not in many instances it causes confusion. The department is therefore having the new meters, of the type which registers like the regis- ter in a trolley car, the amount of wa- ter used showing all the time, Instead of requiring the figuring out of the amount.

ADDIE BURNS CASE WILL BE RESUMED THIS MORNING Unofficially Reported that Ridisz Is Sane—Dr, Pollock Will Report To- day. The case of the state vs, Addie Burns will be resumed in the Superior court this morning, and the Koster woman will be recalled to the stand for the completion of her cross exam- ination. ‘The witness who will occupy the witness stand longest probably is Ad- die Burns, the woman accused, if she is called. She will be put on proba- bly Wednesday. She can tell all about the visit of May Burns to the house, who brought her there, the conditions under which she came there and the men who visited her while she was there. Will she tell ? State At- torney ‘Hull will be the cross-examiner when Addle Burns tells her story to the court. Mr. Hull depends upon get- ting a great deal of testimony from Addie Burns and he has pursued the case with that opinion in mind. Under_direction of Judge Wheeler, Dr. H. M. Pollock, superintendent of the Norwich hospital for the insane, went to New London county jail in Franklin street, New London, on Sun- day, to examiné Mike Ridisz, under in- dictment for murder. There has been some question, on account of Ridisz's actions, as to whether he was sane or insane. Dr. Pollock's reply will be made to Judge Wheeler this morning, when court resumes the trial of the Burns rape case. Exactly what the report | | is will not be known until then, Un- officially it is known, however, that Ridisz was found not to be insane | by Dr. Pollock. The man is of low mental caliore, but he is not consid- ered insane. Ridisz will be placed on trial for the murder of Katie Yurkiewsicz, in all probability at this term of court. John Jurasz, who was indicted with Ridisz, will be given a separate trial ,in ac- cordance with a ruling of the court last week. John G. Bogardus, the soldier, who will be put on trial for his life after the disposition of the Jurasz and Ridisz cases, was also examined by Dr. Pollock. Bogardus’ confinement in jail since September 10 has not changed his mental poise in the slightest, SOCIAL MEETING OF NORWICH HOME CHAPTER King’s Daughters Presented Their Sec- retary, Mrs. Elizabeth Church, a Bouguet and $27 in Gold.
