The mud on the country roads has been causing the rural free delivery carriers more trou during the past few days than did the heaviest snow- storms of the winter. Carrier Will- iam Burnett on route No. 2 out of the Killingly (Dayville) postoffice found it impossible to get through with his team and made the ent trip on foot one day and later in _week his circuit on horseba press style. Mr. Burnett made the trip on foot in better time than might be expected and as only a little more than an extra hour in doing the stren- uous stunt. Carrier Hosea Greene on route No. 1 is favored with better roads in his territory and was not obliged to resort to extraordinary means to make his trips, although they were very hard. Alexander’s Lake Still lcebound. Heavy thunder accompanied the downpour of rain early Monday morn- ing. To many persons this indicates that the backbone of winter has been broken and that there is not to be any great amount of cold weather. The frost is nearly all out of the ground in this section and the roads are com- mencing to dry out. Alexander’s lake is still icebound, however, as it has been since December. The two local rivers are clear of ice excepting in some places ajong the shore line and in coves. Association Plan Works Well.

Saratoza Chips (Anti-dyspeptlc). | Most dishes requiring deep frying are denied the dyspeptic because they are usually fried in lard, and lard does not “agree.” The following recipe will be welcomed by those of poor digestion : Peel the potatoes and slice thin into | cold water. Drain well, and dry in a | towel. Fry a few at a time in hot Cotto- lene. Salt as you take them out, and lay | them on coarse brown paper for a shortl The above recip: can be followed | without the least fear of disagreeable after effects.

All the estimates of appropriations for the different departments of the city government, as recommended by the members of the common council, wers accepted and authorized b{ the voters at the adjourned annual city meeting, held in A, O. H. hall Monday 'morning. Ex-Mayor J. McGarry presidéd. Frederick W. Seward was clerk. The appropriations voted were as follows: City treasurer, $100; _city court, $1,500; council chamber, $200; city clerk’s office, $250; fuel and light, $350; city janitor, $200; highway de- partment, $3,000; fire department, $5,~ 300; stret lights, $5,500; police depart- ment, §$3,000; general expenses, includ- ing the sinking fund, interest on loans and all other vontingent and incident- al expemses, $,500. Total, $24,900. A tax of eight mills was laid, this amount being an advance of one-half mill over last year. There were less than a dozen voters at the meeting, which was in session only a few minutes. MUNICIPAL REGISTER Ready for Distribution—Fire Chief Joy Urges Pressing Need of More Four- Gate Hydrants, The municipal register of the city of Putnam for 1910, containing the message of the mayor, the personnel of the city government and city offi- cers for 1910, receipts and expendi- tures, and the annual reports of the several city departments for the mu- nicipal yvear has been issued and is ready for distribution. The register is fllled from cover to| cover with interesting facts that make | up a record of the doings of the city officials for the year. The following recommendationy of Chief M. R. Joy of the fire department contained in the register is of special interest: “The hydrant system should be looked into without delay. There has been no change made in the hy- drants to meet the growing condition of the city, and you of course realize that things have changed quite a little in the past 25 years. The city should have more hydrants, and several that are now in use should be changed from two-gate to four-gate, and I assure vou it is very necessary that this be attended to. “There are several places at the in- tersection of streets where in case of fire two lines of hose are leaid, and if more lines are needed it necessitates the closing of the hydrant and the at- taching of other applances, or going to teh next hydrant, which is gen- erally so far away that a thousand or more feet of hose has to be laid be- fore the fire can be reached. You can readily understand what a handicay this is when every moment means so much at the outset of a fire, and it could be partly remedied by having more four-gate hydrants. Judge Gager to Preside.

Jeremiah Holmes, director of the Bridgeport trade school, for which ac- commodations are being fitted up in the old factory of the Spring Perch company in John street, has returned from a visit to the secretary of the state board of education, with whom he had been talking over the policy to be pursued in the Bridgeport school. Mr. Holmes said that the rooms would not be ready for some time; that while some of the machinery to be used had been purchased, none of it had vyet been installed and it would be several weeks before things would be in read- iness for the opening. Workmen are engaged in remodeling the rooms to be used and the machin- ery already purchased will be installed as soon as possible and the rest would be purchased as soon as it is deter- mined just what will be required. The policy of the school, Mr. Holmes sald, is being carefully considered by those in charge, what is being done in other -hools of like character in other parts f the country is being looked into and {it is the intention to have the Bridge- | port school second to none. | The instructors for the school have | not yet been selected, but will be some |time during the present month. A {number of men are under considera- tion. It is the desire to give Bridgeport the very best, and for that reason the ! committee in charge will move slowly. | Sounds Like a Mollycoddle. | One is inclined to inquire if Missis- | sippi’s senator-elect, Leroy Percy, | wears curls and a Windsor tie.—Chi- cago Post.

The gradual consolidation of the two plants making one for trolley and main line electrics, 1s one of the things which this location would make possible, says the Norwalk Hour As stated by one of the electrical ex- perts of the company today the present system of power transmissioh is be- hind the times and it is only a que tion of time when a more improved system will be installed, but this work will take years. In making the cur- rent for the operation of trains on the main line the same plant could fur- nish the power for the trolleys of this and surrounding cities under an im- proved system and. one power station,| therefore could be doing the work of two. Various places have been report- ed as the location of the mew power lant. At one time it was reported hat it would be located on land owned by the company on the Housatonic riv- er near Naugautck Junction, but it ap- pears.certain now that the plant will be located in New Haven, and the lo- cation on Mill river at Grand ayvenue is considered by some of the officials as the best because of the advantage offered in the way of future improve- ment of the electrical end of the It has been practically settled by the officials of the New Haven rail- road that the big power station for the operation of electric trains, when that system is extended from Stam- ford to New Haven, will be located in Lets John Out.
