J. J. Corkery and A. A. Beckwith of the water board went to Meadow brook basin for the test of the artesian wells, work on which had been stopped Monday night. Other members of the board were not in attendance because of the weather. The first well, which is down 470 feet, was tried out first at ten o'clock and it showed that there was being pumped about forty gallons a minute. This was kept running from that time, In the afternoon the second well was tested about three o'clock and this proved a disappointment. It had been thought that this well was yielding more water than the first, but the test proved different, as only about ten gallons a minute was secured. The wells are being pumped continuously, day and night, however, and will be for a time, so as to get all the benefit possible from them, though they will deliver but about 72,000 gallons in 24 hours. The engines of the driving ap- paratus are being used for operating the pumps. The water will flow from the Meadow brook basin to Fairview and the melting of the snow will add to the volume. It is believed that great benefit will be obtained from the storm of the past 24 hours. Fairview reservoir _dropped On Tuesday two inches on Tuesday and the waterine carts were busy getting the water to during the families on the hilitops Them Secured—Arranging for Pump at Mohegan day. One team had some trouble when the horses slipped on Jail hill, but all the families were supplied. The freez- ing up of pumps is causing trouble for some residents depending upon wells for their supply. The pressure is about 58 pounds at present at the City hall and it is hoped to increase this materially by install- ing a pump at Mohegan lake, work be- ing in progress on it at present, so that it is hoped to have it working in a few days. This, it is believed, will force the water to the hilltops, and will deliver the water from the lake faster than it will flow by gravity. Favors Installing Meters. An engineer was in town on Tues- day, called here by a firm for the pur- pose of glving advice in regard to the securing a temporary supply for the firm. He has had much experience in the water business and has been called in to give advice to such cities as Chicago and Kansas City. Although he had only a general idea of the lo- cal water system he was of the opin- ion that the city would be following a wise course if i1t would, even now, for the sake of saving what water it has, install meters wherever ‘water is used. There are concerns, he sald, which will install meters for half the money the city saves by their instal- lation. It has been found, and the condition exists, he belleved, that more water is wasted than is used. By me- tering the city thoroughly and then securing a small addititonal water sup- ply, he belleved that the question would be solved for many vears to come. How One City Does. A Norwich property owner in a Massachusetts city states that there the city makes the property owner install the meter. If a meter is not installed they get no water. A 'cer- tain number of cubic feet of water is allowed for a stated sum and all used in excess of that amount is charged for, and charges are made for as small an amount as five cents, the price of 250 gallons used in excess of the limit throughout the year.

E. B. Worthington Elected Warden, Vice Frank Fagan, Resigned—Ten Applications Received. At the first regular meeting of the Norwich nest of Owis, which was held Tuesday evening in their regular rooms on Main street, the old Central Athletic club headquarters, about 100 Owls were present. President Ashley T. Boon presided over the meeting and during the course of the evening sev- eral matters of importance to the order were acted upon. Upon the advice of the hall commit- tee, W. R. Balcom, G. H. Stanton and Wiillam Hagvey, it was voted to lease the C. A. C. hall for a period of five years, and it was decided not to sublet it. The hall committee was directed to paint, paper and furnish the hall and to provide each member with a key. A mesting of the nest will be held every Tuesday night. Ten new applications for member- ship were acted upon and twenty-five more applications are expected to come in by next meeting night. There are already 300 members on the charter list. Assistant Organizer Sanford was present and he stated that this was the first nest in the state that had their own headquarters. At Tuesday night's mesting E.

Members and friends of the Totokett H~se company to the number of thir- ty-five held the second whist of the season In the company’s quarters on Friday evening. It was thoroughly en- joyed by all. A number of young people from both villages attended a pleasant gathering at the home of Herman Learned on Friday evening. Much sympathy is expressed for the young daughter of Mrs. and Mrs. A. B. Tebo, who is suffering from spinal trouble. The child was recovering from severe burns when she was taken with her present iliness. Work of Dog Poisoner. Irving Gregory recently lost a valua- ble coach dog from the effects of ground glass which it is thought was given the animal in his food. Dog lovers in this village are much exer- cised over the deed. and meat MAKING CHEESE. Industry Carried Successful on at Bethlehem. ‘Bethlehem's cheese facto ‘which commenced operations two years ago, and whose products were to revolu- tionize the cheese industry of this country by placing on the market a cheese so closely resembling the fa- mous fmported Roquefort that the dif- ference could not readily be detected, has been for some time at a standstill and its fate is yet to be determined. Raymond Thompson, the young man who discovered a process by which Roguefort cheese could be du- plicated, is a native of Bethlehem, where he was reared on his father’s farm, situated southwest of the center of the village. Mr. Thompson's ex- periments extended over a period of five years, during two years of which time” he conducted iivestigations at Storrs agricultural school. Success is said to have crowned his researches and experiments, and that he actually duplicated in taste, color and general ingredients the French product seems to be a fact—Waterbury Amerfean.

Republican States Senators Propose to Destroy the Lobby Influence. As a result of thelr meeting at the Stratfield in this city the republican members of the senate are very much nearer a place where they can go into caucus and “merely vote.” They aro coming perceptibly closer to the point where a general under- standing is being arrived at without pledges and by the agency of infor- mal talks. It is begining to be understood in high republican circles that the “so- cial sessions” are the device of pro- gressive senators, who in this simple way hope to destroy the influence a the lobby, which has, as State's At- torney Judson has said, controlled the senate through two decades. To the influence of the lobby the “social sessions” = oppose the natural tendency to work together that i{s ex- pected to arise among the senators as they meet over good dinners to talk politics. Said one genator, “That the senators hitherto have not met each other per- sonally until they reached the repub- lican caucus has been one of the fruitful conditions wupon which the lobbyist has seized to his own advan- tage, becoming sometimes, or fre- quently, the only means of commun!- cation between one senator and an- other. “But the social sessions, even if the Jobby remains powerful, tend to vest the control of the republican end of the senate in the republican senators.” —TBridgeport Farmer. FROM THE FAR EAST. Sister M. Louise Seeks Aid for Jap- anese Orphans. Sister M. Louise of the Orphans’ congregation,/ of the Holy Infant Jesus of St. Maur, established in Parls, 1667, is in Hartford, says The Times, solic- iting aid for an orphanage In- Yoko- hama, Japan. The community has a house in Tokio and another in Shizoka. In Yokohama there are five hundred children who were supported by the mother house in Paris till the sisters were expelled from Erance. Sister M. Louise has been working for these children for over thirty-six vears. She has traveled all this dis- tance from the far east, trusting to the generosity of the people of the United States to assist her in this great work. Right Rev: Bishop John J. Nilan has allowed Sister M. Louise the privi- lege of soliciting in the Hartford dio- cese, and several of the rectors have most kindly permitted her to collect in their churches. Sister M. Louise will rematn in Hartford, at the Convent of Mercy, on Farmington avenue, till the end of December. SUBSTANTIAL BEQUEST Left to St. Paul’s Church of Norwalk. Through the death of Mrs. Maria P. James, says the Norwalk Hour, St. Paul's parish will be one of the weal- thiest parishes in this section, for when the estate of Mrs. James is set- tled and the proceeds go to the church the net amount will be nearly $65,000, The estate in itself i3 worth about $90,000. Originally the property was bequeathed to the church with the re- striction that it be used for church purposes, but in later years this re- striction was all removed by a codicil in the will and the church now has a perfect right to dispose of any or all of it. The property includes the Nor- walk Historical and Memorial lidrary, the 1ot at the corner of Berkeley street and West avenue, and the property on the north side of Berkeley street be- low the chapel, extending down as far as Union park. It is very probable that this property will be placed upon the market in the spring. here rapidly increase in value.
