There ) little danger of any shortage of this city for some time to come if Mpe conditions at the pumping station &t Mansfield mean anything. The rainfall of the past 48 hours which has been estimated to be better than two inch rainfall has brought every brook up to the top of the banks and water is pouring into the reservoir faster than the city consumption can take care of it, and as a result the level of the wat- ler there is considerably higher than the spillway. On Wednesday of this week the water at the reservoir aecording to markers on the water gates was about a foot be- low full pond level. Since Wednesday night however the reservoir has filled completely and water is overflowing the dam. though of beneficial nature to the farm- er has not had the same effect with the work of the Southern New England Tele- phone Bmployes. The heavy raing of the week have put many lines and hun- dreds of telephones out of commission in this district. The trouble story for the telephone men for the week began 'with Sunday's storm when 300 stations on the local exchange were put of com- mission. Before the workmen could get these stations back in order the second storm of the week added 400 more sta- tions to the absent list. The work on hese telephones was progressing nice- ly when the storm of Thursday set in and since than time about 85 lines with nearly 900 telephones have been put out of commission. These telephones total nearly a third of the total exchange and a continuation of Friday's storm will greatly add to the woes of the tele- phone men. The company reports that workmen are busy testing the service and with 2 day of two of good weather service will again be mormal. It s stated that a continuous rain such as this section has enjoyed during the past 43 hours, is more damaging to the tele- phone system than a heavy thunder storm, especially In the outlying dis- tricts where brush and fo! e of trees interferes with the telephdne lines. First performamces of Chautsuqua were given in this city Friday afternoon before small audiencses due to the heavy fall of rain.

News that the Carpentier-Dempsey fight will be put on In Jersey City to- day (Saturday) was welcomed by local fight fans.

Others followed Friday . The majority of fans will have to be satisfied with hearing the returns over the newspaper wires.

Will You 3':'}' PUTNAM A decision ghat W1l be handed down by, Judge MArvin of the superior court of the state of Cofnecticut, and which will have far-reaching effect on the Putnam Ceme- tery association as regards the future expansion of the Grove street cemetery, is looked for daily here, and with much interest. A little over two weeks ago a hearing was held on a demurrer to & prayer for an injunction brought by Thomas C. Bradford, who through his counsel, Searts. Russell & Bradford, seeks to restrain the defendant cemetery asse ciation frem using as a place to bury dead bodies a certzin strip of land on the south side of the cemetery and in close proximity to the dwelling house of the plaintilf. The cemetery association is represented by Attorney J. F. Carpenter of Putnam. The plaintiff claims an in- junetion on the ground that the burial ef the bodies in the strip of land will irrepa- rably injure him, as it will be unhealthy and gnsightly, being in such clode prox- imity to the house occupied by him as a residénce. The plaintiff relies upon ' a section of the mtatute which provides that no dead bodies shall be buried with- in 350 fect of a dwelling house except with the permission of the state health commissioner, unless such cemetery or place of burial was cstablished bef the passage of the statute, which was in 1911, The strip of land In question in the Putnam case was purchased before 1911 but was admittedly not used for burial purposes before that date. When the plaintiff, Bradford, became aware that the Putnam Cemetery association was about to clear the land and plot it for Lurial purposes it gave notice that it objected to the project as an infringe- ment .of its legal rights. ~The defendant association claims thaj as the plot of land was annexed to the Grove street cemetery before the statute in question ‘Wwent into effect it was at the time of the passage of the statute a part of the es- tablished cemetery and therefore did not come within the act. But the plaintiff maintains that, although a plece of land was annexed to the said association's holdings, it had never become a part of the established cemetery because it had never been used for cemetery purposes, but was covered with trees and brush and left in an undeveloped state.
