Gloctricity will be distributed be- tween Willimantic, Stafford and Rock- ville, so that the company which is now furnishing Norwich with its elec~ tricity will be the source of the cur- rent for a large section of eastern Con- necticut. This electricity will not be for the operation of the trolley lines but will simply be for light and power, the street railway eompany having the privilege to furnish such in the towns.| through which it goes. The Uncas Power company by this contract will be turning into money that which is going to waste at the present time. . It will in no way affect the contract with the city of Norwich, which has first call upon all the elec- tricity the plant can produce. The con- tract just made is so drawn that it is subordinate to the city of Norwich, so that if the city at any time wants all the current it can have it regardless of the other contract. It is figured, however, that it will be some time be. fore the city will increase its demands 80 that the surplus which the company will hold will be fully drawn upon. In- asmuch as the current will not be fur- nished for operating the electric lines, all will be harmonious at the plant, as the current will be steady and that which they have just contracted for is now going to waste. There is no option for a renewal at the end of five years, and the Uncas company will not endeavor to make any further contracts for current. The swer Co. will Furnish it to-Willimantic s ford St. Railway Co. for Use in Willimantic, and Rockville—Not for Operating Electric Road. o, 7 Falwap RERgaNS ixpesty (o b8 able to take the current by the first of July, but by the contract they agree to take it and pay for it after the first of Octo~ ber whether the line is completed or not. The power company figures that it will have a reserve of about one- third its capacity, with both the city 'way < company carrying the amount taken by each being approximately. the same, The new contract differs from the one made with the city of Norwich in- asmuch as the railway company takes the electriclty from the power station and stands the loss in transmission, while in the local case the power com- ny built its own pole line and de- fivers the current at.the local electric plant and ‘thereby stands the loss in transmission. An examindtion of the power plant was made for the purpose of determin- ing the capacity of the contracting company, and those who made it were fully satisfied that the power company has plenty of current to carry out the contract, although it is fully realized that the contract is subject to the prior rights and privileces of the city of Norwich at all times and that th have no claim upon it if the city wanfs it all The contracting company is at work etting the right of way for its pole line from the Uncas Power company" dam to Stafford, going through Willl- mantic, Mansfleid, Storrs, Willington and Stafford, and at that place there will be a connection with Rockville, so that electricity will be furnished to all those towns, the one company hav- ing the right to sell the electricity for light and power there. This will be an important change for Windham end Tolland countles. 3 GOVERNMENT ENTERS | IN LOCAL CASE. Suit of E. G. Mondou vs. New Haven Road Assigned for This Week.

Considered One of the Largest Paid in This State—Received by Late F. T. Brown. A gentleman from New London county, who is connected with a state department, was in conversation with a few friends in the capitol the other day, says the Hartford Times, when the conversation turned on the ques- tion of the size of fees :paid to law- yers. The gentleman sald that it was the opinion among the lawyers of New London county that the late Frank T. Drown of Norwich, whose death was & loss to the state, received the largest fee ever paid to a lawyer in that county, The fee amounted to $25,000. He told the circumstances of the pay- ment of the fee. Mr. Brown was re- tained by a man to recover a claim amounting to $100,000. The recovery of it was g forlorn hope, and the man, who lives in another state, did not think it would be recovered. Mr. Brown obtained judgment for the full |amoutit. The client, in his gratitude, | seot Mr. Brown a check for $25,000. Mr. Brown returned the check and suggested that he had made a mistake, | as his fee was not nearly so large as that.

The hunter was recalling some of his early experiences for the benefit of the tenderfeet. “Yes, sir,” he said, “it was my first grizziy, and T don't deny I was proud of having killed him in a hand-to-hand struggle. We began fighting about sunrise, and when he finally rolled over, done for, I'll be blamed if the sun wasn't going down.” ‘We paused. No one sald anything, and so he added slowly, “for the sec- ond time.” “Do you mean that it took you two days to kil a grizzly?” asked the Eng- lish tourist. 3 “Two whole days and one night,” replied the guide, reaching for a brand to light his pipe. “He died mighty hard.” “Choked to death?’ asked the tourist.
