CITY IN DARKNESS, Switch at Uncas Power Company Plant Tripped and All Lights Went Out. For a few minutes on Tuesday even- ing about 10.45 o'clock the city was in total darkness through the tripping of a switch at the plant of the Uncas Power company at the Scotland dam. The switch was on the high tension line leading to the city, so that it cut 1 off the electric current for street lights and house and store lights all over the city, which was plunged into absolute darkness. Franklin square was probably the one lighted spot in the city for those few minutes, as the failure in the city happened just at the time when the | 10.45 cars were coming in. Their head- lights and the lights inside the cars only served to make more noticeable the blackness of the city streets. The electric lights were shining again as the switch thrown in again PRESENTED GOLD WATCH. Rev. Michael J. Byrne Receives Hand- some Ordination Souvenir from John G. Foley.

THE WAY 2T SUCCEED the words of Horace Greeley, “The way to succeed is to advertise.” There ig scarcely a notable commercial success that has not been built upon the solid foundation of ad- vertising, and, likewise, practi- cally all good, clean, honest bus- iness that advertises legitimately is successtul. Paraphrasing ‘Whenever you see a manufac- turer co-operating with the re- tailers of this city or a group of cities- or of all the cities in the United States in an advertising campaign on behalf of his mer- chandise you may safely make up your mind to three things— First, merit. the merchandise hag Second, both the manufacturer and the merchunt are pro- gressive, dependable people with whom 16 do business, Third, they are successful and merit your confidence and patron- age. Manufacturers are beginning to understand that the only way to create actual, “over-the-counter” demand for a product is to ad- vertise it locally—in daily news- 'st.

At an adjourned meeting - of the board of water commissioners on Tues- day evening at 7.0 o'clock gt the of- fice in the town hall bullding there was a full attendance of the board with President Patrick F. Bray, 2d, con- ducting the business session, which lasted about 45 minutes. The matters of business to come up were the appoiniments of water su- perintendent, cashier and _inspector. For superintendent, John J. Corkery, the present incumbent, was reappoini- ed to that office, and the same was done in the case of Cashier John J. Shea, who also serves as clerk of the board, who received this appointment for another year. On the appointment of an inspector 1 { there were three names voted on. James T. Delaney, the present in- spector, received two votes; Myer r— and John J. Shea Reappointed by Water in Vote For In- Three Names Blumenthal, two votes, and J. Frank Corey, who has spector, one yote. . The meeting adjourned till its regu- lar meeting in July, which this year would come on the evening of ~the Fourth. It will accordingly be held on Thursday evening, the night before. The reappointments of Superinten- dent Corkery and Cashier Shea con- tinues’ in office two men who—have shown their ability in their position in their previous service. Supérintendent Corkery has been water superintendent since 1910, and in connection with the building of the new Stony Brook reser- voir and the shortage of water through which Norwich passed has had one of the busiest terms in office that any Norwich water superintendent has gone through. Cashier Shea entered the office last vear, filling out the year" after the former cashier had resigned. CANNOT UNDERSTAND WHAT DELAYS APPOINTMENT In Federal Court Judgeship—Divided Delegation no Excuse, Says Mahan. (Special to The Bulletin.) ‘Washington, June 24—Representa- tive Mahan says he cannot understand of a judge for the federal district of Connecticut. He said that the excuse of a divided delegation was no good excuse. There was a divided delega- tion at the time of the original ap- pointment of Judge Platt, he said, yet it did not keep President . Roosevelt from making the appointment. In this case, Mr. Mahan sald, six-sevenths of Connecticut democratic strength was on one side and only one-seventh on the other, yet this is given as an ex- cuse for not making the appointment. Up to the present Connecticut has re- ceived nothing from this administra- tion, not even what is her due, said | Mr. 'Mahan It is now said that Executive Clerk Thomas, is still a candidate for the office ,although it was given out some Noone for the position.
