New Steam Turbine in United States Finishing Company’s Plant—Notes and Personals. A new 600 horse power steam turbine has been installed in the plant of the United States Finishing company by the DeLavalle Steam Turbine compan; of Trenton, N. J. Ths turbine was used for the first time on Monday and was found entirely satisfactory. The exhaust steam will be used for heat- ing and @rying. This machine is the only one of its kind in this vicinity and it is thought that it will prove mu:h more economical than the old power plant. The turbine, whieh is enclosed in a new house on the edge of tae canal, will operate all the machinery of the plant and will do away with much trouble which has been experi enced in the past on account of lack of water power. In the past different sections of the mill have been operated by steam, water and elactricity. ‘William Baker and family were at Ocean Beach Sunday. ‘Louis Combies is spending § few days with friends in Providence.

The committee denied the request and in doing so stated that it was not within their power to permit such a change, inasmuch as it was the vote of the city meeting that the pavement should ‘e of vitrified brick. It would not do, said cne of the committee, to have part of the street of one kind of pave- ment and the remainder, or center, of another kind. There will be 2,500 square yards of the brick pavemgnt in Main street and of that amount there will be 900 square yards which the Connecticut company will have to lay. There will be 110,000 brick required, and it is probable that ihe city will -contract direct with the Mack firm in_secur- ing these, The contract for .the fur- nishing of the cement has been award- ed Dr. A, F. Howard of this city, the lowest bidder. The committee is in communication with the Connecticut ccmpany relative to the putting down of the brick pave- ment and as soon as the agreement between them is reached regarding the work, the details will be pushed along rapidly, so that the committee will be in a position to go ahead with the paving soon. It is possible that the Connecticut Company Asks Permission of 1 7 But it i$ Denied for the Main Street Work Filling” in Fanning’s Pond Granted. | 3 43 2% of Public Works job of laying the brick for the com- ‘pany will be done by the city, instead of having two separate gangs of men ‘on one job. . The2 public works committee has also ‘been at work on the matter of spiling in Yantic cove for the retaining of the dump there and finds that it will not ‘be possible to build the spile bridge from Sturtévant avenue to the‘dump with the money appropriated. There will have to be 721 feet of spiling from the present spiles to a point opposite ‘Sturtevant avenue. This would mean the placing of spiles on but one side of the dump, while there is need of spiling also for some distance on the ‘West Side. It has therefore been de- cided that the bridge will not be put in this year, but there will be spiling on both sides of the dump, there being 750 to 800 spiles in all driven. Nego- tiaions are under way for a driver and- the committee expected that this can Pe begun very soon. . By butlding the bridge, it was Ahought the cost of collecting the gar- bage and ashes could be materially reduced, as it would mean a short cut to the dump. The) city, however, has been given the privilege of dumping ir what is known as Fanning's pond, so that all the collections from the Falls section will be placed there, commenc- ing In the fall. There is a large area o be filled in there, so that it will take some time before the use of that dumping ground is shut off by the low ground being sufficiently filled in.

BOYS GOING TO GARDNER LAKE Cross-Country Hike Being Planned— Pool Table Added to Rooms. - e Plans for a cross-country hike are being considered at the Y. M. C. A. with Gardner lake as the objective point for the boys, and if a sufficient number can be interested to make the trip profitable it will take place in the near future. The boys had a taste of sleeping out under the stars at Quonochontaug while at the Pleasant View camp last week, and judging from the way they enjoyed it then, it wili not be difficult to get the prop- er combination of blankets, bacon and boys for the proposed hike under As- sistant Secretary Ely. ’ A pool table recently acquired by the Y. M. C. A. has been set up in one of the three rooms that will be given over to the boys’ department in the fall, but it will not be used until after the formal opening of this department, with a_ reception about the first of September, Just now the changes on the office floor of the building are held up, pending a business meeting giving authority to go ahead with the im- provements, although General Secre- | tary Starkey’s private office is being painted and begins to present an at- tractive appearance.

NEW YORK DAY AT STRONGIN FARM Big Time at Gardner Lake, at Which Many From Norwich Were Present. The Strongin farm at Gardner Lake was the scene of a delightful social gathering on Sunday, when, in addi- tion to his New York guests, the af- fable proprietor entertained many from the surrounding farms, and a large party from this city, With true, old- fashioned hospitality everyone was made to feel at home and the fine weather and pleasant _surroundings contributed to a day full of pleasure for all, One of the features of the enjoyable occasion was the ball game between the Norwich 688's and Strongin’s campers, which turned out to be a lively contest all the way through, with many clever plays that deserved the plaudits they received from the fair onlookers. = Although Norwich gained a lead in the opening innings, the Campers came back strong in _the fifth and made the score even. The next four innings were runless, but a rally in the tenth, which could not be overcome, made the game safe for the 688's. AS a mound artist, D. Ben- dett showed himself in excellent form by fanning 16 of the heavy hitting campers. A star play was pulled off by Second Baseman Fleischer for the Lake team, when he successfully at- tended to.a hard catch with one hand, while H. Budnick’s threebagger and doubles by O. Crumb were the big events with the willow. It was the 688’s first game of the season and they showed their old-time form against their opponents, who proved a fast aggregation. Next Sunday they play Colchester at (Colchester. The lineups were: Norwich 6$8's—D. Bendett p, Lahn ¢, Crumb 1b, Budnick 2b, S. Siegel ss, M. Bendett 3b, L. Trachtenburg If, H. Hertz of, H.

Following a bountiful supper, there was a concert by the Lyric orchestra of this city, the musicians playing in an excellent manner. Later there was a musical programme, delightful num- bers of which were a solo, Two Little Love Bees, by Miss Ida Pickus, a se- lection from The Pink Lady by Miss May Pisik; a solo, Havana, by Miss Kaufman; ‘the recitation, Joe, by Miss Minnie Shapiro, The ladies received liberal applause for their commendable efforts and the accompaniments were pleasingly ziven by Miss Ida Fried- lander. A dance, The Highland Fling, by Miss Rosenthal of Brooklyn, N. Y., and a Russian dance, by Miss D. Sok- hol, were well executed. Dancing was then enjoyed until midnight. H. G. Fleischer proved the right man in the right place as fleor direc- tor and manager and he and his as- sistants carried out their duties in a pleasing manner. The hall had been handsomely decorated with Japanese lanterns, wreaths and flowers by Dr. and Mrs. Bonime, Miss Sophia Landy iss Irene Schlossback, and the floor filled with the dancers presented @ pretty sight. When ithe gathering dispersed it was with much_regret_but with the feel- ing that “New York day” on the Strongin farm had been a highly suc- cessful and enjoyable affair. Among the New York guests who were present were Miss Bella Bern- stein, Miss Ida Schur, Miss Sadie Fishman, Mrs. Shapiro and family, Mrs, Margolius and family, Dr. and Mrs. Bonime, Misses Rose and Bessie Bonime, William Schofield, Mrs, Jar- fey and family, Mrs. Eber, Miss Kauf- man, Mrs. Sophrin, Phil Leight, D.

Our_one idea of a cheap sinner is one who loafs all the week and then ‘gwoe! fishh;l‘ on Sunday.—Galveston New GOOD AMOUNT OF RAIN OF INESTIMABLE VALUE. Somewhat Late for Certain/ Crops, but the Breaking of the Drought is Wel- comed. The predictions that there would be showers on Monday came true, and during the morning there was a fine rain, amounting to .82 of an inch, the largest rainfall for nearly six weeks. It came right to do good, and the ground took it all in, there being litilz to run off. While it is somg¢what late for certain crops, the later| ones will benefit therefrom and the water sup- ply will be helped somswhat. This makes a total thus for this month of 1.09 .inches, in addition to which™ on Monday evening there was another rain which will add over a quarter of an inch to the total. It rained for an hour and a half in the evening in good shape. The breaking of the drought was welcomed,| there being few who were heard to grumble, though the day was most uncomfortable because of the humidity. There was no business fer outdoor workers, and the river steam- ers were likewise able to take a day off. The steamer Block Island staved at New London for the day, coming up the river at 6.15 p. m., while the Gardi- ner was tied up to her dock all day. The long, dry spell had opened up the leaky rooff:, and in many in- stances there were showers inside and out. JEWETT_CI-TY MAN SEEKS WIFE AND SON. John G. Wyatt Had Been Told That They Would Do Away With Them- selves. John G. Wyatt, a millhand of Jewstt City, has been in Fall River for a couple of days trying to find his_wife and 15 year old son, who have, he fear: done away with themselves. After do- mestic differences about three weeks ago Wyatt sald that his wife left his home and took the boy with her. He could get no clue to her whereabouts and worried a good deal about them, reporting thair disappearance to the police department of his city. Friday morning last he received a letter pos marked Fall River which stated thit Mrs. Wyatt and her son were occuny- ing a room in a lodging house fhers, that they had used up all their funds, that she had been unable to get work as a weaver, and that if they did not receive money shortly to pay the room rent they were going to commit sui- cide. Then Wyatt recalled that when his wife left him she told him to watch the papers and he would find an ac- count of the death of herself and the son. He went to Fall River without delay and gave the police his confi- dence. All the lodging houses in the center of the city were searched with- out avail and those in the outskirts are being looked up. WILL HAVE SUPERVISOR FOR PLAYGROUND.
