TAFTVILLE Hydrants Being Installed in North Al Street—Good Water Pressure. | Thursday afternoon s forde of about | half a dozen men started excavating for a new hydrant at the corner of North A street and Slater avenue. An other hydrant will later be installed at the corner of North A stireet and Third avenue. Up to the present time there have been no hydrants on North A street, as no provision was made for them when the water main was laid in the street, some years ago. The! nearest hydrant to North A street is! some five hundred feet, and in caes of | fire the firemen would be delayed to some extent in connecting up the addi- mal hose. The water pressure on North A street Is about 85 pounds, while on Norwich avenue the pressure is an even hundred pounds. The aver- age pressure in the village is excellent.

Fire Chief Stanton with Shepard B. Palmer of the town school committee have been over the bulldings to see where changes were to be made to comply with the new law, and it has been decided that nine of the two- story buildings will have to have fire escapes provided, while two—Broad street and Laurel Hill—do not need them. e Schools Affected. ‘The buildings to be equipped are Mt. Pleasant street, Broadway, Pearl street, High street. Occum, West Thames street, Boswell avenue, Hobart avenue and Bridge school. The expense of .providing the fire escapes will be eonsiderable and is made greater through the provision of the law which is taken to mean that all windows opening on fire escapes must have their sills cut down so that they will be on & level with the floors of the fire escapes. This will involve in many cases much cutting of the run around /the roomis under the windows and will also-mean other interior changes in some cas As Broad street schoolhouse has fireproof staircases and hallways it is éxempt from the provisions of the act and the Laurel’ Hill building also es- capes because it has the necessary number of ground floor exits. One for Every 250 Pupils. The new law reads as follows: Every building used as a schoolhouse which is two or more stories in height and in which the greatest elevation of the floor of any story actually used and above the adjoining ground at any ac- cessible door, window or other suita- ble of exit shail be provided with at least one adequate fire escape, of iron or other incombustible material, curely erected on the outside of said building, for each 250 pupils or frac- tional part thereof; and such fire es- capes shall at all times be kept free from obstructions, shall be so,designed as to prevent persons from being pushed off or falling from same, shall | be conveniently accessible to and from each floor of ten or more feet above the adjoining ground of said building, I be of sufficient width and strength at all parts so that the same may be crowded from top to bottom with adult persons descending two | breast. and the exits of each floor to | same shail consist of doorways whose base shall be level both with the floor I not equipped with fire escapes in ac- not more than eight inches from the top to not more than two feet from the bottom of each door; and the landing of the fire escape at each floor, if there be two or more separate | rooms or hallways adjoining each other and convenient to said landing, shall have two or more doorways leading to it, each doorway to be from a separate room or hall. ‘The provisions of this section shall not apply to two-story buildings with fireproof halls and two or more exits on the ground floor opening outward. Sec. 2—The chief of the fire depart- ment of any city or borough and the! state board of education shall have! power to enforce the provisions of this act, and it shall be the duty of said | official and said board, aCting either conjointly or singly, immediately upon | its passage, to forthwith order the| proper school authorities to place on all schoothouses or buildings used as schoolhouses to which the provisions of this act. are applicable, such num- ber of fite escapes as will equip said building in accordance with the pro- visions hereof. Exemptions. | Sec. 3—The chief of the fire depart- | ment of any town, city, borough or fire | district, or, if thére be no chief, the principal or superintendent of ~any school, with the approval of any agent | of the state board of education, may | exempt any school building which has | two or more ways of egress by stair- ways on the inside, from the provisions of this act.

Sec. 4—Any school building which is’ i cordance with the provisions of this | act within 60 days after notice given as provided fn section 2 shall be con- demned by the official giving such no- | tice and shail not thereafter be used for school purposes until the { pro- visions of this act have been complied with. In case any such building is | used for school purposes after being so | condemned the official in charge of such building shall be subject to the | penalty prov 1ded’ ip section 2628 of the | general statutes, and the fown in which such building is so used shall} forfeit the state enumeration ' grant during the time such building is so used.

RAIN WAS APPRECIATED. .29 of An Inch Here—Peach and To- bacco Growers Will Benefit. The total rainfall in the of Wednesday amounted to inch, and meant a benefit culturalists, but hardly amounted to anything in the way of gain on the showers Norwich reservoirs' watersheds. The water situation in Norwich is 8o good anyway, Superintendent J. J. Corkery declares, that it makes little difference about any rainfall now. Fajrview reservoir is now 55 inclies down from full pond and Stony Brook is down an even 8 feet. Around the state the rain was gen- erally welcome for the thirsty fields and orchards of Connecticut have been suffering many weel It is al- most impossible to estimate the value of the rain to Connecticut. J. H. Hale, Glastonbury’s veteran peach grower, said that the rain added 200,000 bush els to the state's production of peach- es by increasing the size of the fruit and adding to the number of mar- ketable peaches. At the same time the quality of the fruit will be ap- parently improved by the rainfall, so both the orchard man and the con- sumer will be benefited. There was considerable hail in some parts of the state. “The rain did u oceans of good,” said one familiar with the tobacco growing industry. It was explained that many of the growers filled their barns some days ago, and have been unable to cut the leaf of outstanding tobacco because of no place to put it. The rain moistened the tobacco in the barns so that it can be removed to warehouses, and more leaf can be cut and put in the barns. The shower will increase the profits of the grow- ers to a considerable degree. T —————————— ”. MARRIED DWARDS — READUS —In_ Norwich, EAug 27, 1913, by Rev. B. S. Wor’ cester, Arthur H.
