City. ‘The work done at the reservoir this week has completed core wall and the screen house, but it has now come to a standstill, practi- cally, while the contractor is waiting for the special rollers needed to roll the wall. This has to be done on both sides of the embankment, and when the rollers arive, which, it is expected, will be soon, the work will be rushed along again. Superintendent Burnap's last meas- urements of the Fairview reservoir were on Monday, when it was shown to be down 79 i-4 inches from high water mark, a loss of 8 1-4 inches in the last week, which is not as much as the preceding week, when it lost 11 inches. In the work around the city under direction of the water department, pr A i o o S all be completed in a few days, Raving been begun about & week There has been 450 feet of pive to lay in rather hard digging, with rocks and boulders to hinder. Because of the depth of digging and the meed of care of caveins, the re placing of the old-fashioned cement pipe in East Town street at Peck’s corner, where there was a blowout over a week ago, has been a slow job and is still in progress. The trench, six or seven feet deep, runs along the trolley tracks, and great care has to be used to avoid accidents. There will be 350 feet of new iron pipe put in to replace the old cement pipe which has been down since the reservoir was built. e FOR OBSTRUCTING JUSTICE IN KELSON CASE Doyle and Hazel Bowman in Jail in Default of $2000 Bonds—Howard’s Case Cotinuea. On demurrers to complaints, alleg- ing misprison of felony, Hazel Bow- man agd George Doyle were bound over to the superior court Friday. Sam Howard, similarly accused of hav. ing hindere® and obstructed the course of ustice in connection with the escape of Sam Kelson, the negro assailant of Satlor Harry Bohn, asked through his counsel that his case be continued un- til_Aug. 23, Miss Bowman and Doyle were un- able to obtain surety and went to juil to await trial. At the hearing in the cnse of the former on Aug. 9 a bond of $1000 was demanded by Judge Coit. This morning Judge Coit added $1000 to the woman’s bond and made it $2000, | and the same as in the cqse of Boy) in Howard. Howard secured surety that amount and remains at liberty The counsel for Miss Bowman and Doyle entered ‘demurrers pro forma in which Prosecuting Attorney Cronin oined. Judge Coit overruled the de- murrer in the case and found probable cause. Howard’s attorney said that he conld not have witnesses on hand today to prove that his clignt carried a bundle of clothes from New London to New Haven in ignorance that they were Kelson's, but that he would have them present on Aug. 23. The arrest of the woman in the case occurred when she was receipting for a registered letter from Kelson on Aug. 3. She cannot read and per- mitted Lieutenant Jeffers to read her the letter, which asked her to send clothes and money or come and bring them to 800 Broad street, Bridgepdrt, where Kelson was hiding. The ne- gress' defense will be that she knew nothing of the contents of the letter and did not help to get Kelson out of Bridgeport. When she was arrested the police found that her trunk was packed and she had money. By other means, .which the author- ities have mot clearly _established, Doyle learned Kelson's hiding place and left on the day of Hazel Bow- man's arrest. He has confessed to seeing Kelson and to giving him $1 He says that Howard gave him $1 to- ward the fund for Kelson's assistance, Doyle does not know, he says, whera Kelson went to. Doyle was less than a half hour ahedid of Deputy Sherift Tubbs in reaching 800 Broad street and it is plainly evident that but for the help Doyle gave Kelson he would have been captured. Hoeward, according to evidenc which the state has in hand, took Ke son’s clothes from this city to Eridge- port or New Haven and there gave them to a friend of Kelson. Since his arrest Howard has said that he did not know the clothes were for Kelson, but the state expects to introduce tes- timony which will show Howard had guilty Knowledge. ‘With the taking Into custody of these three negroes the state has been hope- ful of getting some clue as to the whereaboats of Kelson. Two other negroes, Silas Binks and Grace Ash- ton, are now in jail for offense in con- nection with the fight in the Bradley street saloon on Julr 23, when Kelson stabbed Harry Born. Bohn lies at Memorial hospital, recovering from stab wounds, but physicians say he has little chance of regaining other than impaired health. HANDSOME FLOWERS. Bouquets of Wild and Cultivated Flowers. Clarence A. Norcross of Maple street comes to the front with a fine show of exhibition asters in white, pink, laven- der and purple shades. A bunch of them makes a brilliant display. S. Howard Meade of Coit street knows where the chofce wild flowe: assemble in the rural districts, and we are obligated to him for an attractive bouquet of purple orchids, golden rod and the golden centered white Indian tobacco blooms. It was a pretty com- bination of field flowers. Laying of Universalist Cornerstone. The cornerstone of the new All Souls’ Universalist church in Ne London will be laid some day next week, the exact date not being decided upon. The pastor of the church, Rev Howard Colby Ives, will officiate and will be assisted by Rev. W. F. Bi erman. Liberated on Friday. The women who have been in for about 70 days for keeping places of evil repute were liberated from the institution Friday morning and rode away in hacks to their homes. Each of them paid bills of costs amounting to $32.28. Marion Morse remains ill at the Backus hospital, but is miproving somewhat. Plea Local Veterans. With the election of Judge Alfred B. Beers of Bridgeport to the office of junior vice commander in chief of the Grand Army of the Republic, Connecti- cut veterans are highly pleased. The nomination of Judge Beers was made by Postmaster John McGinley of New London. More Bad Luck for Mr. Hawthorne. H. O. Hawthorne, the same New London man who was_concerned in a collision with George H. Pratt's auto- mobile, this week had more bad luck on Thursday. His launch was stripped by thieves ROOT BEER BUSINESS Did Not Pay in Kansas as Anticipated. William Woodruff has returned - to Southington from Kansas, where he had gone to make his fortune in the root beer business. Wqodruff has a special recipe for muking root beer, and his beverage has been in great demand. In Kansas prohibition holds sway, and on that account he thought his especially palathble drink ought to find more than a ready market. He went there and established himself, but s00n learned that. the state statutes and his business were not exactly in harmony. The laws in that state do not allow any fermented beverage to be offered for sale. Woodruff's drink, though non-aleoholic, has yeast in it to liven it, and this proved to be his undoing in the west. WESTERLY MAN DIES IN BACKUS HOSRITAL F. Ernest Clark Passed Away Friday Morning After an Operation. F. Ernest Clark, of 101 High street, Westerly, died suddenly about 2 o'clock Friday morning at the Backus hos- pital after an operation for intestinal obstruction. Last Saturday Mr. Clark was taken ill, after eating a hearty dinner, and was indisposed for several days. He was feeling much improved until Thursday, when he was taken ill again. At the advice of his physi- cian he was taken to the Backus hos- pital for an operation. He left West- erly on the 9 o'clock car and died im- meédiately after the operation was per- formed. Mr, Clark came to Westerly about two years ago and has been employed as a lineman for the Westerly Auto- matic Telephone company. He was a i native of Ashford, 35 years old, and is survived by his wife, his mother, Mrs. William Ross of Chaplin, and his brother, Walter Clarke, who was ap- pointed governor of Alaska, which po- sition he will take nmext month, who happened to be in Westerly and ac- companied Mr. Clark to Norwich for the operation.

Undertaker Gager prepared the body for burial and It was sent to Chaplin on the 3.25 train Friday aft- ernoon, accompanied by relatives. The funeral will take place on Monday and burial will be in that town on Monday. TROLLEY EXTENSION TO OLD MYSTIC. Surveyors Go Over the Lines—Road Planned to Meet Norwich and West- erly Line. London surveyor was in drawing the lines oute of the trolley extension from Mystic to Old Mysti County Commissioner B. F. Wil liams, who is vice president of the G. & S. road, stated that the outlook at present looked very good and the residents along the route who had been approached on the subject seemed much in favor of helping the project as much as possible. The road into Old Mystic will go as far as the drug store of A. O. Williams, which®s lo- cated in the center of the village. This could be easily reached in a short time by people residing there, and is also a center for any freight traffic. A trolley road going into Old Mystic means a big boom for the town, as there are many pretty residences there, also a big business In the wool- en mill, and the only mode of trans- portation is on foot or in. teams. In time, after the road is built, un- doubtedly it will be still further ex- tended until it meets the Norwich and Westerly road near Lantern hill OBITUARY. Mrs. Elias P. Rogers. Mrs. Lucy A.

Rogers and Rogers, both of New London, Egbert P. Lincoln of Brook- children, Brnest and Mrs Iyn, N. ¥ SUSPICIOUS TRUNK. Twe Dead Chickens Made Sensatior in Hartford. There was considerable alarm at the union statién in Hartford the .other afternoon, owing to the receiving of a trunk from Virginia, which sent an odor that was hardly bearable—such as would come from some dead body. The trunk was of goodly size and arrived at the baggage room of the station early yesterday afternoon, frem Chase, Va. and was not con- signed to any individual, but merely addressed Hartford. As the trunk was put off the train the conductor called -the attention of Policeman William -C. Steele to its “terrific” odor. Finally a colored man came with the chacks for the trunk, and every- body gazed at him, wondering if he was the one who 'would be hanged for what was in the trunk. He put the trunk in an exprese wagon, and ordered the driver to g0 to No. 114 Woodland -street. It went and a de- tective still pursued it. In due time it arrived at No. 114, and was carried into the house, the home of Samuel Barbour. It was carried all the way through the house. Then the detective entered. “Is Mr. Barbour home?’ he in- quired. It was a colored servant girl —Mrs. Bessie Townley—wro answered the door bell. “Whose trunk was that that was just brought in here?” asked the de- tective. Bessie answered with some amaze- ment that it was her trunk, but she did not know that that was any- body's business but her own. Then the detective told her who he was, and demanded to see the inside of the trunk. Bessie was indignant, but the detective was obdurate, and finally Bessie consentod. “Land - sakes!” Bessie exclaimed at last, “those chickens must have gone and spoiled,” and then she lift- ed out two bundles wrapped in nap- kin She had = just returned from a visit to the old plantation in Vir- ginia, and had brought back with her two chickens from the Townley coop, prepared to have a feast and a reminder of home for her friends. The - detective hastily said good day, and went back td the chief's office to report. “T notice that a bishop charges the D. A. R. with being a mutual admira- tion society.” “Mutual!

SHELLFISH COMMISSION Will Be Able to Increase Revenue to Provide the $10,000 Wanted for Serv- ices. New Haven, Aug. 13.—In an inter- view with Shellfish Commissioner John H. Clarke today in reference to the resolution pdbsed by the senate on Tuesday last, .creating a commission for the investigation of the question | of oyster taxation, and appropriating $10,000 for the services of three mem- bers of such commission at $15 per | day each, Mr. Clarke was questioned particularly in regard to the amend- | ments which were presented just be- fore the bill was passed, by Senator Brinsmade, providing, first, for a| Dboard of relief, and, second, that the taxes should be coliected by the tax commissioner instead of at the office of the shellfish commission, as here- tofore. Mr. Clarke stated that he understood the occasion for the first of these amendments was to meet the- criti- cism that this commission would be an expense to the state without any revenue being provided to meet such expense, and that the commission by being given powers of a board of reliet and so enabled to increase as well as | decrease assessments, would be able | to provide revenue if it saw fit, to equal or even exceed the ten thousand dollars which It is proposed to ex- pend. As to the second amendment, Mr. Clarke said that he had never heard it discussed, and knew of no reason for it unless there might be suspicion in some quarters that the shellfish commissioners would not carry out their sworn duty and collect the tax which might be 1aid by the other com- mission as a board of relief. He said that as he understands it, the duties of the tax commissioner are wholly in- consistent with the collection of rev- enue; that he does nmot at the present time collect any revenue or handle any money, and is not under bonds Also, that if the office force of the tax commissioner is busy at the pres- ent time, or under normal conditions, then it will be necessary to add to the force in order to carry out the collec- tion duties. Also that the records of ownership and all the other records of the shellfish office, which would neces- sarily have to be referred to in the collection of taxes would continue to be kept at the office of the shellfish commission, and the work of collec- tion would be greatly hampered by the tax commissioner not being able to refer to the records except by com- ing to New Haven. Continuing, Mr. Clarke sald: “That part of the amendment which provides that all moneys received by the tax | commissioner in payment of taxes and | interest shall be accounted for and | paid to the state treasurer, is in di- rect conflict with chapter 209 of the public acts;of 1907, in that it_takes away from the towns of New Haven | and Orange, taxes on New Haven har- | bor oyster grounds. It also violates the agreement which was made with | these towns two vears aso and, In| the absence of which agreement, the | attorney general is of the opinion that the act bringing New Haven harbor into state jurisdiction would not be constitutional, in that it would work « deprivation of taxes which belong to | these towns on the ground referred to. | There is another provision along the same line recently passed at this ses- sion in reference to.taxes on the town grounds in Westport.” In closing, Mr. Clarke said that there are not, and, as far as he can ascer- tain, never have been anv uncollected taxes to_speak of, and there is no reason he knows of why the present system of collecting taxes will not work as well in the future as it has in the past. {by ‘the residents of ; W’” Aug. 13.—After pro- viding of terror for hundreds e & the forest fire which last E ' a score "u..""gfl ‘and _other puildings along woods, was today under control, hav- ing burned itself out. The fire was the flercest which has even been known in York county, burning ‘over between 300 and 600 acres of timberland, much of which was valu- fable pine woods, and causing a total loss estimated at about: §100,000. ‘The night will long be remembered s city, together With the hundreds of summer visitors who augmented the fire department fand militiamen in fighting the flames. Except for the women, who secured some sleep while fully dressed, no one thought of going to bed in the fire district, and many familics had their household effects all packed, ready to move out should the fire reac htheir houses. Company G militia, the local fire de- partment and hundreds of citizens and summer residents spent one of ihe most strenuous night of their lives in baffling the efforts of the encroaching flames to consume the score of homes, many of them fine summer residences, which lay .in the path of the fire. Some of the men spent the entire night perched on the roofs of houses, with a pail of water in their hands, quenching the sparks as they lighted, while other braved the stifiing smoke and heat of the burning forests to a in the work of stemming the fire progress. Mayor Cornelius Horigan remained at the scene of the five, directing the men, until early today, when he re- turned to the city and made arrange- ments for sending food to the fire- fighters. Later in the morning a fire alarm was sounded, and from the crowd of volunteers who assembled at the s tion house 100 men were picked to Ko to the relief of the men who had been fighting the fire during the night. |all the fire will require now is « stant watching, until a heavy rain comes to permanently extinguish it. The fire covered an area of about a mile wide and a mile and a quarter long. Much of the land was covered with pines and young srowth. but considerable heavily timbered land has Bitten by Water Snake. At Bast Hampton a seven year old boy, Eddie Houlsh, of New York. who with his mother has " been visiting Julius Kruis, at Aldens Crossing, was bitten on the wrist in several places Tuesday by a large water snake.
