NEW HAVEN,s Water SUPPLY.


The water C0mpanY's Important Pur-
chase In old woodbridge.
President Dawson of the New Haven Water
company said yesterday concerning the COM
pany's new and important purchase of a
tract of land and water supply in Wood
| bridge, which news wss first given to the
public in the CoURIER's columns:
"About twelve or fifteen years ago we
bought number of lots in Woodbridge in
the vicinity of the headwaters of the West
river. The land which we just purchased is
land we intend to flow. We now have entire
control OF the great water resources in that
section of the country, and there is no city
are better than those of New Haven. Aside
from this purchase we can easily increase the
force of our water flow by putting in an ad-
ditional engine in Whitneyville and another
at Saltorstall lake. What we are looking out
for is the water needs of New Haven in the
future, New Haven with five hundred thou
sand Inhabitants. That statement at first
blush may seem extravaganza, but reflect
moment. Our Sopulation has increased
with wonderful growth in the last six years.
Every twenty years our number has doubled
and we now have over ninety thousand peo-
pie. In twenty years more we will have
twice that number. Well, let the popula.
ton grow as it will, let the city spread ont
farther and farther on all sides, and one
thing is certain, that the demands for wa
ter will be most abundantly taken care Of
We must, You know, keep abreast with the
times and that the New Haven Water COM
pany is not slow in doing. Some time next
year we will build dam on the property we
have just bought and the reservoir
will be found capable of holding 300,-
GOO, 900 million gallons of water.

OF the Awful ContagIon-The City

Former ParishOner OfRev.Nar. Paine
The Wonderful Growth and Pros
Perity of Florida.
The yellow fever is spreading in Jackson
vile, yesterdays telegraph bringing the sad
news that sixteen more people had been
stricken down with the dread disease and
that two more deaths have occurred. One of
the two that died was Mr.. Hooker, former
parishener of Rev. Mr.. Paine of New Haven
(pastor of the NJ. E. Church in the Annex,
when Mr.. Paine was pastor in Jacksonville.
The deceased was coffee merchant and
highly esteemed. Jacksonville has about
$4,000 population, half of which have fled.
AL business is paralyzed there and want and
restitution will soon stare many in the face.
Mr.. Paine said last evening that he would
probably soon begin making efforts here to
raise money for the relief of the old Union
soldiers who are living in Jacksonville, they
are class who will specially need help, as
their claims as Union soldiers will not APP
peal so strongly in a southern community as
in northern. There are about three hun
business is at a stand still. Mr.. Paine says
he sees little prospect for thelnaterial abate-
ment or checking of the fever, until the
frost comes. Mr.. Paine resided ten years in
Florida and there happened to be no outbreak
of The fever during that period. The fever
had visited sections of Florida the year be-
fore he came there.
Florida's growth and wonderful increased
prosperity in the last fifteen years, great as it
was, viii receive, it is believed, but a tempo
rary setback from the temperance of the
yellow fever. Illustrative Of the almost
magical growth in value of real estate in some
places in Florida since the war and since the
great influx of northern enterprise is the fol-
lowing: Rev. N. Paine seven or eight years
ago bought corner lot in St. Augustine
when stationed there, for his church people,
paying 81 900 therefor. A small frame church
was erected upon it, and here his people wor-
shipped. Of the amount the church and lot
cost a New Haven gentleman, Mr.. 81. Fl. Ben
edict, gave from his private purse 81 ,200-a
generous lift deeply appreciated in Jackson
in the hearts of the Methodists there. The
church people had owned the property but
about two years when along came Flagler
and built the grand Ponce de Leon Hotel
right across the street from the church prop
erty. Then Mr.. Flsgler turned his eyes mp
on the land occupied by the church. He
wanted it for site to build anoEher big pa
latial hotel upon. The result was, in brief,
that Mr.. Flagler built one of the handsomest
churches in the South in another suitable To-
cation and gave it to the chnrch people for
church they had been occupying. The new
church with lot cost $S1 900. Upon the site
of the old church Mr.. Flagler erected the
splendid Alnazar Hotel.
