Corkery found at Fair- view reservoir Tuesday that it was 118 inches below highwater mark, a gain of three inches. There will probably be a further gain, as there was a full | pipeful coming in from Meadow brook where the water was a foot above the | 24-inch pipe, When the snow turned to rain Mon- day night, it soon melted the beautiful 50 that there was a coating of ice and the water ran from the hills in tor- rents and the gain would have been greater but for the sudden cold turn which the weather took, the thermom- eter having gone up to about 40 and then back to from 11 to 17, There was frightful walking Tuesday morning and many fell and slid about the walks on their way to work Horses had o bad time all day and the blacksmiths were busy, day and night Tt was a combination of weather sel- dom seen.

Mr. Cunningham left the farm | last November to spend the winter in | the city, but his son Frank is running | the farm for him. The son had beer | here on Monday and returned in the| evening in the storm. Hearing a door | slamming, he went to the farther end | of the hay barn to fasten it, and at! that point was a sow and eight small pigs. One of the little ones squealed | and the sow attacked Mr. Cunningham | and in the scrimmage the lantern Which he carried struck against a post and fell into the straw. This quickly | kindled and the barn was soon in flames. This was shortly after ten o'clock and Mr, Cunningham managed to get out many of the harnesses,| horses, some utensils and part of the pigs, but five were lost in the fire Neighbors gave assistance, but noth- ing could be done except to save tha otier buildings in which they were succeseful.

New Londen Considering Sending Ed- na Norten There If Relatives or Friends Are Not Heard From. New London is purzled over what to do with Bdna Norton, the woman from Jewett City who was acting queerly in that eity when detained by 1 the police. The woman is atill hdng detalned at the almshouse awaiting the possibility of her being elaimed by some relative or kindly disposed friend, who will take proper care of her. During her stay at the Institution she is being sup- ported at expense of the city, de- spite the fact that she is the possessor | | ot $257 which was found on her per- son when ghe was searched on the night of her detention. The city au- thorities, however, cannot legally until- ize any of that money toward her{ maintenance. Unless relatives or friends look after her soon, New London will probably take steps to have her committed to the Norwleh state hospital. Whist for California Guests.
