It rained on Friday, ror a large part of the day, and while it is probable that there 'Was not a half inch which fell, it did the springs and brooks good and the benefit of it was felt at Fair- view reservoir and at Mohegan lake, two spots in the limits of the town which are of particular interest at the present time. As it was not thought the storm was over, no measurement of the water fall was taken on Friday. Friday morning Supt. Corkery of the er department took a reading of the large o'clock.” At the meter was read again, that 263,000 gallons of water had been drawn from the reservoir. When first read, the water in the reservoir was down 336 inches, and at the second reading it had not dropped, showing that the water flowing in had balanced the consumption during that time, and it no doubt continued through the day. There was an eight inch stream flow- ing in from Meadow brook. At Mohegan lake the benefit of the rain was also felt. It is imposible to tell the amount of water drawn from there, but when measured the water had dropped but a half inch _since Thursday, being down 41-2 inches from the level when the water from that pond was turned on. On Friday President Ray of the Ar- tesian Well and Supply company was bk meter at Fairview at 10.20 | 20, just five hours after, | showing | here for a short time, and there was a conference between him and the su- perintendent regarding the wells at Meadow brook. He was informed of the decision of the water board .re- garding the intention to stop work 2 depth of 500 feet. The captain of the water boat at New London was here on Friday and called at the water office to learn if there would be any business here for him, should he bring his boats here. He stated that he could bring 30,000 gal- lons of water here on a trip, and thought there might be some custom- ers which the city had to supply which he could look after. He was informed that it was doubtful if he could sup- ply much of the trade now, and that it would necessarily have to 'be in the vi- | cinity of the wharf, as he would have to carry the water. In the schools spring water is pro- vided for the children to drink, and all the springs In the city are being by residents in their vicinity 10r drink- ing water and that with which they cook. Not a few are buying spring wadter. The water department is looking for quite a loss in receipts for the present quarter, because of the shortage, as many pecple have no water for any purpose now, these being on the hill= tops, where the pressure is light. WICKS WON SILVER MEDAL. Won Nineteenth Place in Thanksgiving Marathon Race at Yonkers. W. H. Wicks of thie city, who fin- ished nineteenth in the Yonkers Mara- thon race on Thursday, reached home Friday and had with him a beautiful silver medal such as were prasented to the twenty-five competitors in the race who finished after the first eight. The first eight were awarded silver loving cops, the size and cost of them varying with the position of the winners at the finish. There were sixty entries, including runners from all over the country, and three Connecticut men were among the number, C. Collins of West Haven, who finished tenth, W. H.

ELECTRIC SYSTEM Promised for New Haven Road—Big Plans Outlined. Wednesday's New Leader say Some idea as to what the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad in- tends to do in the way of improvement of its system and enlargement of its business may be gleaned from the statement of Vice President Byrnes made today in Boaton in which he says Wit ten vears T believe you will see through trains running from Naw York, the south and west to Maine, New Tampshire and the provinces. We will be running electric trains between this city (Boston) and New York. Neither our railroad nor any other railroad is in business for phil- anthropy.

It would be hard to find in these days of high prices, except at the Thanksgiving and -~ Christmas season, says the New London Day, an adulf or minor who has had 8o much turkey meat that he or she will say, “I nev- er want any more turkey.” At the time of the bullding of the New Lon- don_Northern railroad men were to be found who had had enough turkey to make them sick. One New London man, who knew of the incident, tells the story every Thanksgiving day, at least, to his grandchildren to show them that a person may become tired of turkey as_well as anything else. Capt. John Ward, who had a farm at Thamesville, took a gang of work- men on the Northern road contract to board, when the bridges were being built ‘in_that section. He was the father of the late Capt. Willlam Ward, well known by New Londoners of middle age. Captain Jokn had more turkeys on his farm than he could sell. He had raised a big flock and the prices were so low, owing to the birds being especially numerous that year, that he served turkey to his boarders in lleu of beef, which was a great deal more expensive. One day William Williams, foreman of the gang which boarded at Cap- tain John Ward's, went to Contractor John Breed to register a kick abou’ the table at the boarding house. The contractor heard Bill Williams' kick, which went something like thi “We get nothing but turkey up to Cap'n Ward’s. When we started in there four weeks ago we had turkey the second week we began to change our minds. You see we get turkey for breakfast, turkey for dinner, tur- key for supper and what's left is warmed up for breakfast. Then we have fresh turkey for dinner and that's the way it goes. The men are sick of turkey.” Contractor Breed is reported to have looked sharply at Wwilliams. “Well, d it!” he said, “you don't know when you're well off. They set a better table down at your boarding house than I have at my house!” The spokesman went back to the gang and reported that there was no relief to be expected from the hoss. It is not recorded that the menu at Captain Ward's changed before the turkey flock was eliminated VISITED SANITARIUM. Governor - Elect Baldwin Inspects Shelton Institution. Governor-elect Simeon E. Baldwin visited the state tuberculosis sanitari- um in Coram Tuesday afternoon in company with Dr. George Knight. the chairman of the state commission, and Commissioner Hall, and inspected in a very thorough manner the entire in- stitution. The wewly elected governor showed a keen interest in all the de- tails of the plant, and while express- ing no opinion publicly about the insti- tution itself, was outspoken regarding the beauties of the location, and es- pecially the magnificent view from the top of the hill. His few inquiries were pertinent and showed that he was in sympathy and accord with the purposes of the insti- tution, and he will be in a position to thoroughly understand any legislation that may be offered during the coming session of the general assembly pe taining to the needs of the institu- tion.
