ct has just been discovered by DIR.
Gould, Director of the Cordova OBJ
servatory, Argentine Republic,
South America. This comet seems
to be the great comet of 1907, and
is located in the Constellation of the
Dove, Right Ascension hours and
Deelination South so degrees. 1t is
not visible from this latitude and
not known yet that it will be, al
though it is likely to be as the COM
ct of 1907 was distinctly seen. No
apprehension need be had over the
unusual appearance of comets dur
ing the present year as they do not
possess the power to work injury
upon the earth or any other planet.

is easy of access from both Mem

ground. the Chicks and the Rifles
both have friends here and, in fact,
all our people would be glad to
have them come, and would give
them a hearty welcome. We hope

istied that they can find no more

Water.

MT. William A. Parsons, residing on York street, corner of Chapel street, returned recently from revisiting southern Michigan, his old home, where he had been since June. In southern Michigan it has rained nearly every day this month, and in Iowa and the Mississippi Valley there has been so much rain as to cause freshets and grand surplus of water generally.
 Owing to the scarcity of water in the Nor walk reservoir, consumers are allowed to use it but two hours day-from 6 to in the morning. The result is that work at Cou- sins shop on Hoyt street is practically at a standstill, and the many who depend on the borough water to supply their boilers are greatly inconvenienced. In the business portion of the borough whole wells are scarce people have hard work to procure water for cooking purposes, and in several instances it is brought from quite distance.

Board of seIestmen.

The Board of .Selectmen held meeting last evening which was rather executive in it's character. They considered at considerable length what action they would take in regard to the granting of licenses for the ensuing year, and finally voted to hold conference with the County Commissioners before de- ciding upon what course they will pursue. It is evidently the intention of the Selectmen to act justly with all parties in interest and so far simplify matters with the commissioners that there may be less elashing during the next year between the two boards as to prop CT persons to receive licenses.

Besides this other great admirers, perhaps. of the latter charac- ter assembled in large numbers and the gathering was one of the largest of the dra- matic season in Hartford.
