S, J. Kehoe. At @ special meeting of the court of common council held in the counofl chamber Tuesday evening a resolution introduced by His Honor Mayor Timo- thy C. Murphy authorizing the pur- chase of two new 380 h. p. bollers to replace two old boilers at the munici- pal gas and -electric plant was tabled on motlon of Councilman Telley E. Babcock following a discussion of about an hour, during which time the matter was viewed from all points. The special meeting of the council was called by Mayor Murphy at the request of the and electric com- missioners, as they feel that there is urgent need of the two new bollers if the municipal plant is expected to meet the steadily increasing load. The present bollers are 1§ years old and will have to be repaired this spring. The proposition before the special council meeting called for the expen- diture of $24,850, this amount to be taken from the reserve or depreciation fund, or if necessary-from the sinking fund of the gas and electric depart- ment. This amount would cover the instailation of the boilers and such equipment as would be necessary. Introduced Resolution. The meeting was called to order at 8 o'clock by Mayor Timothy C. Mur- phy. The minutes of the previous meeting were accepted without read- Ing. The mayor then introduced the following_resolution, which was read by the clerk, Arthur G. Crowell: Resolved, That the request of the board of eas and electric commission- ers for authority to purchase two new 490 h. p. boilers and equipment be granted, and such purchase is hereby sanctioned, and the city treasurer is directed to accept nad pay the orders of said board, not to exceed $24,850, to cover the cost of said boilers and equipment, which are to replace two old_boilers at the city electric station at_North Main street. And the funds to pay such orders shall be drawn from the reserve or depreciation fund and if necessary from the sinking fund of the %as and electric department. Statement from Supt. Kehoe. Councilman Babcock arose to state that he thought some statement should be made by the gas and electric offi- cials to justify the expenditure of such a sum before the resolution be passed. Supt. S. J. Kehoe explained the con- dition of the present boilers at the plant. Mr. Kehoe said that if the new boilers are not installed it will be im- possible to meet the demands of the ever increasing load. He said that with the load coming it seems advis: ble to have what is known as a U steam line. If a leak occurred a valve could be shut off and the plant would still be in commission if the U steam Uine is put in use. Mr. Kehoe said that the two new boilers and equipment would carry the plant through the present year, but in 1917 there will be need of more changes owing to the growins load. . Councilman Babcock asked Mr. Ke- hoe what the limit of service is in regard to the plant, and Mr. Kehoe said it s the town. Councilman Bab- cock also asked Mr. Kehoe if there would be need of installing the boilers if the Uncas Power company were to supply the power, and Mr. Kehoe said that the Uncas Power company could not furnish enough power to supply the need. In answer to a question from Al- derman C. K. Balley as to whether or not the Shore Line had made a propo- sition to furnish electricity, Mr. Kehoe said it had and that the price was a cent and a quarter. Could Use Boilers Without Extra Load Alderman Pailey asked if it wasn't possible to buy our power from the Uncas Power company and the Shore Line for the next year, without this outlay, and Mr. Kehoe said the boilers could be used without extra load, but that they must be repaired. Alderman Bailey asked how much these repairs would call for and Mr. Kehoe said about $200. Alderman Balley asked if the commissioners are in favor of the proposed installation of the new boll- ers, and Mr. Kehoe sald he presumed | they are in favor of the outlay as far 2s he knew. Alderman_ Bailey sald it seemed to him that $200 could be spent to put the present boilers into condition and that we could buy power for next year, It didn’t seem to him that a matter of $25,000 should be decided in a minute. Don't you think it would be better for us f0 buy power now and wait until later to spend this money, asked Balley. Yes, if satistactory terms can be made, answersd Mr. Ke- 0e. Councilman Babcock asked Mr. Ke- hoe what the trouble with the present bollers is. Mr. Kehos said they need a couple of tubes, new nipples and that one of the bottoms is pitting. Economy to Buy Power. Alderman Bailey said that .if the commissioners can buy power cheaper than the plant can manufacture it and fix up the old bollers, it seems economy for the city to see what can be done regarding outside power. After these changes are made what is your estimation of the cOst of pro- duction, asked Councilman Walter F. Lester. Mr. Kehoe said that would depend on the price of coal. The council wants to know your opinion, sald Mayor Murphy. Do ygu think thoso bollers should be instaR- ed and run your plant at full capac- ity or what? It seems so, answered Mr. Kehoe, unless as Alderman Bailey suggested, you can buy satistactorily from the Shore Line. Has the Shore Line been asked to submit a proposition, asked Alderman M. H. Hourigan. Yes, sald Mr, Ke- hoe. Alderman Hourigan then asked if they nhad made a proposition and Mr. Kehoe said they had and that the price was one cent and a quarter, The Sinking and Reserve Fund. Mayor Murphy then arose to make some explanation regarding the mon- ey that would be used in making the purchase. Mayor Murphy said that the city of Norwich has never pald one cent of taxation towards the plant and that the money with which the boilers would be purchased would be used from the reserve fund or from the sinktng fund. He then read the following statement of the sinking and reserve funds which he received Tues- day morning: Gas and Electric Sinking In Chelsea Savings Bank .. In Dime Savings Bank . 1,057, In Norwich Savings Society 10,030.26 In" Thames Loan & Trust 924.65 12,487.50 5,000.00 Total E 1 Gas and Electric Reserve In Norwich Savings Society In Thames Loan & Trust 529, Fund. $18,257.02 3,551.11 due June 1, 1935 Sinking ¥ Reserve Fund . Total . $55,633.14 Plant a Valuable Asset. D. T. Shea, one of the gas and elec- tric_commissioners, spoke in reference to the Shore Line furnishing power. He said that in order to make a con- tract with the Shore Line we would have to piedge about $13,000 the first year and he thought it would be far better to install the boilers. I regard that plant as a valuable asset to the city of Norwich, said Mr. Shea. _So long as vou have a £00d, up-to-date plant, he continued, it will always serve as a hammer to keep the price of electricity down. He did not think the $25,000 spent for new boilers a WORLD'® WAR AND THE WORLD'S WORK. Rev. Joel B. 8locum, D. D, Gave In-|Mest Successfully Treated by Taking teresting Talk at Shop Meeting.

Arno Dosch tells of in Belgium: At tho time of of the Yser the English channel flect up and down the cost, driv- ing big sl into the German lines, an the Germans brought up theif heavy siege guns to kcep them off. The duel went on day after day, the English cruisers impeding the advanc- ing German columns and the German guns raising great geysers of white ‘Water around the ships. It became one of the elghts of the Belgian coast and the people in their summer homes along the seashore sat all day watching the fight. Describing his experience, Mr. Dosch saia: “I would walk all day along that beach, my eyes fascinated by the play of shells around the ships. As evening came on the conflict became terrific. ‘Tongues of flames shot out from scores of guns on the vessels and the great slege guns along the dunes tore the surface of the sea with their mighty shells. It was a magnificent spectacle. As I walked along the beach I noticed many men and women knee-deep in the shallow water, very intent upon ‘what they were doing. So I asked a passing Belgrian soldier what they were. “Shrimp fishermen, he replied. I could hardiy believe it Here was a land and sea fight tme 1Tke of which had never been seen before in the history of the world, and the ehrimp fishermen did not even lift their heads. By and by there was a terriffic burst of shells. The water at my feet trembled and the great mis- sles shreiked as they passed over- head. At that a bare-legged fisher- girl, standing near, straightened lLer young body and stared fo m->ment at the ship: But the next moement she was at her work ain.

Mr. Shea said his idea was to run along for two years and then put in an u to-date machine and have the old ma- chine in reserve. Councilman Milo R. Waters sald he agreed with Mr. Shea. Resolution Tabled. Councilman Babcock moved that the resolution before the meeting be ta- bled. A yvea and nay vote was taken and resulted in the tabling of the mo- tion. Clerk Crowell read a communication | from Justin Holden, asking a claim for 2 fall on the ice on Broadway which his daughter, Miss Edith Holden suf- fered a fow days ago.

It is our thorouzh belief that a mince meat ple mads from condensed mince meat is about as cheap a dessert as can be prepared and yet as good. For many years mince meat was considered a winter dish. Each year for the last ten our factory has had to increase its capacity during the ing attached to the chairs of speakers & little device which caused them, when he pushed a button, to arise “promptly and with great enthusiasm.” New York Leads In Eats.
