A Sure Cure for Ennui.

lFrom the Hospital
 It has been our privilege within the last few months to inspect an increasing num- ber of hospitals, many of them in the provinces. Few occupations could have given greater pleasure or satisfaction than we have received from these visits. How many man and woman groans at the winter months especially, and wonders what to do to pass the time in the after moons of many days. How many there are who become subscribers to our hospi- tals, who give an order to their bankers for the payment of the annual subscrip- tion, and who then forget all about the matter. We would suggest to such people that they have not yet got full value for their money. It is all very well to sub scribe to hospital or to any other chari- ty, but to stop there is to show an absence of appreciation little creditable to the in dividual. It is an old saying that he who pays the piper shall select the tune. So those who support our hospitals are bound, not snly in the interest and well fare of the public and the patients, but in their own interests too, to become familiar with their methods of work, and to strive to possess some small portion at any rate of the spirit which undoubtedly animates | the large majority of those who constitute the official staff of these institutions. We have been impressed over and over again with feeling that hospital nowadays is | @ cheerful place, where most people are contented, and all are genuinely happy. Even the sick feel that they are safe when
 they find themselves in hospital bed; and as to the children, why, children's ward has proved 8 paradise on earth to many 6
 little sufferer and waif, as all our hospi
 tals can testify. We would say, then, te
 every governor, "Get full value for youl
 money" and if we are asked how, Vt
 would say, ttBy making point of visiting
 the hospital with some sort of regularity
 and 30 learn lessons in life, lessons in suf
 fering, and, what is even more important
 learn to appreciate the privilege of bsinl
 support of institutions like these.

Trouble in Waterbury over a Faulty
 City Charter and an Insufficient
 Water SuPply-Last of the Sleighing.
 WATERBURY, Feb. 1.-The Republican will come out tomorrow morning with a two column abstract of the proposed new charter for the city. The old charter is faulty and many are the inconveniences which have resulted as well as lossea for the city
 A committee composed of between thirty and forty of the leading citizens was ap- pointed some time ago to see what i'm provements could be effected. From this committee ub-committee of six was ap- pointed consisting of Mayor Baldwin, As sistant District Attorney Terry, City At torney Burpee, Prosecuting Attorney Kel- logg, E. A. Smith, secretary of the Water bury Button company and City Clerk Kill duff. These gentlemen have been busy the past six months in drawing up . scheme for the charter revision which was ready Saturday night to be shown the com mittee for approval or disapproval. Ow- of that body was present and the meeting was postponed until next Friday night. One of the chief features of the proposed change is consolidation of all the boards into one board of public works.
 Waterbury is in a muddle over its water supply, the present supply being inadequate for the city's needs. Where to obtain more water is the question around which has sprung up lively debate. The mayor favored the scheme of drawing from Lake Quassapaug and obtained @ vote to that effect from the board of councilmen but probably the aldermen may vote this measure down as the cost will be considerably greater than drawing the supply from ether sources. The water board favors the plan of utilizing Hap brook and now the board of trade has taken hand in the discussion. The three boards are more or less at variance with one another and the question will be a difficult ono to settle
 The funeral of Walter Niver took place this afternoon from his late residence, g Spencer avenue, and was largely attended. There were about 150 members of Nosaho- gan lodge, I. O. o.

at Wigwam Point on the west shore are still extant evidences of the landing. This was also the rendezvous of the little fleet which transported the colonies while in pursuit of tho Pequoit Indians who were annihilated later as before
 spoken of, during June of this year [1631.
 Later it gave shelter to the fleet of boats
 and pinnaces which brought Governor
 Eaton's settlers to Quinnipiac. There was
 in those days an Indian village here on
 Oyster Point, as the name and Oyster
 Shell Bank abundantly prove, and here

 To the eastward of this roadstead lies the remnant of the former beach which was constructed by the actions of the sea which has also distributed it's sands, so l that the tide ebbs and flows over it, and where one hundred thousand bushels of oysters are planted annually for sale in the western markets.

A Dull Market Saturday-Heavtness in St. Paul l- Strength in Lake Shore.
 NEW YORK, Jan. 30.
 The stock market was extremely dull and the transactions in no stock reached 5000 shares. The apparent liquidation in Northern Pacific shares was continued, although only the pre- ferred suffered loss. St. Paul was conspicuously heavy, and it closed at virtually it's lowest figures with decline of about Lper cent. Rock Island was steadier and less active, but Union Pacific did not close above it's opening price. The victory of the company in it's quarrel over the Omaha Bridge contract was not reflected plainly in the prices of the stocks affected by the de- cision. The other western shares were quiet at dropping prices but the final variations were in significant. The most conspicuous exception to the general movement was the strength of Lake Shore, which further gained h per cent. and closed at the top price. Among the specialties Wheeling and Lake Erie shares recorded frac- tional advances, and like Lake Shore, ended without recession. The closing was affected favorably by the publication of the weekly bank statement, which showed smaller loss in re- serve than had been expected from the acquisi- tion of funds by the treasury.
 Closing prices reported over the private wires of BUNNELL 6 SCRANTON. Bankers and
