A letter written by one of the vice presi- dents, Miss M. L. Sturtevant, was read. She regretted her absence but sent a check as a testimonial of her interest in the work. After the reports of the secretary, Miss Sarah L. Huntington, and the treasurer, Mrs. S. H. Howe, had been heard, a letter from the gen- eral secretary, Miss Harriet Harvey, of Philadelphia, was read. A pleasing part of the programme followed. T was the hymn O Love That Will Not Let Me Go, charmingly rendered by Mrs. Charles T. Bard. An article by Monsieur Tricot, who was once an anarchist but became converted through the McAll mission, and Is now a colporteur, was read by Miss Louise C. Howe. This article relates his ex- periences in getting the people inter- ested in the Bible and gives little in dents showing how readily they recaive the Word. Mrs, B. W.

Rules of Judges Cause Some Papers to Be Returned—More Civil Suits. The judges have made some new rules regarding the form of the com- plainte in preceadings for dlvorce brought since Jan. 1, 1911.

Some of the lawyers have appar- ently overlooked the new rules, as some are bringing their divorce ac- tions under the old forms, but the clerks decline to recelve them as they attempt to file them in the clerks’ of- fice.

DISCUSSION OF WATER QUESTION (Continued from page five.) ndon sues London for Too Many Sources. Rev. Mr. Worcester thought the city at a deadlock because of too many | sources. Because of the number in | favor of each he thought it possible | to go the whole round and have each one defeated. It seems as though there ought to be some way by mutual sacrifices possible whereby one prop- | o on can be settled upon. Mayor Thayer thought the people in city meeting overlooked the important fact that they selected men to have charge of just this portion of the city’s business, and it seems as though when they, after investigation, report upon a project, the people should give them | the money whereby the project can be carried out. Instead they go into a meeting and vote it down. He thought the minority tought not to attempt to run a city, but the first attempt came when the citizens’ committee was nam- ed, That committee found that the wa- ter commissioners had done and were doing everything possible. They have given their best thought upon the matter, and the people ought to stand by them. If this propositicn is voted down, what will be done next? The meeting, he said, was called with the hope that there would be a good talk on the subjert, so that the city meet- ing can be proverly informed. Believe Jordan Brook Best. . Car thought the water board idered best and thought that ve much effect. Councilman Briggs held that the report of the wa- ter commissioners did that, as it rec- ommended Jordan broook as the prop- eer source. Alderman Lang said he believed Jor- dan broook the best of the now avail- able sits, and said he held this because of the supply, purity and advantages. Councilman Briggs sald he believed it the best, approving the alderman’s statement. Albert 8. Comstock, also a member of the water board, said that he had always belleved in Stony brook, which he had favored for ten years, but un- der the present conditions he said: I don't think Stony brook the best, as T | don’t think you can get it. I want to/ see water here, and let's stand on somzating we can get. There 15 plen- ty of water ath Jordan brook, and I am willlng to, put myself in favor of this. We might have had water long ago, | but the people are at fault. I don't think I,should be an obstructionist. I shall vote for Jordan brook as I want to see water here. There is no ques- tion but what we can get water there, and I am in favor of it for the sake of getting water. If I thousht it was| a poor place , wouldn’t produce water, h | or there were any detriments about “I nberger, | should not [avor it. (Applause.) Mayor Thaver and Dr. Stark stated that the fourth member of the board had expressed himself favorable to | Jordan brook, having said that it was | the hest propsition ever presented to| the city. Mayor Thayer stated that while he did 10t think it the best plan, yet he is lling to take the next best for the C. D. Noyes stated that when Stony sidered before and voted down, the feeling prevailed that | the city did not need an additional supply. Dr. Stark stated that while the city spent $1,600 at Stony brook, his plan to give this third of the Stark estate in the Jordan brook watershed, val- ,000, overcomes that invest- W.

Mrs. Howe spoke of how much easier it now is for the McAll workers to reach all classes because of the practical aid they rendered at the time of the flood and other times of meed. This has created .a bond of fellowship that has destroyed some barriers which formerly existed. Mrs. J. M. Huntington gave some instructive facts regarding the two movable halls,. Miss. Helen Gould gava $5,000 to establish one of these. The cost of such a hall is $3,000 and it re- quires $1,000 a year for running ex- penses. The sons of a noted French painter, Bugene Burnand, decorated one of the halls with scenes from Bible history. Besides the movable halls, there are at present forty-nine station- ary halls. In addition, two mission boats and an automobile carry the Bible and its message to the more re- mote villages and hamlets and already the good effect of the work is very ap- parent. The following officers were elected for the ensuing year: President, Miss Mary L. Huntington; vice presidents, Miss M. L. Sturtevant and Mrs. Wil- liam Carr; secretary, Miss Sarah L.{ Huntington; treasurer, Mrs. . L. Howe; executive committee, Mrs. G. W. Lane, Mrs. Thomas Wattles, Miss Mary Lucas, Mrs. B. W.

The rainfall on Sunday night amounted to .23 of an inch, making a total for the month of 3.82 inches, which is nearly the month- ly average. There was a big draught of water, as usual, on Monday, but there was but one complaint, that coming from upper Rockswell street, where water could not be gotten in the hot water boiler. The pressure did not g0 below 67 and was at 72 most of the time. At Mohegan lake the pumping ap- paratus will be taken away today and sent back to New London.
