Water.Works and Sewers for the Town
Spring Racing Meeting.


KENT, March O.-[Special. For the
last seven months the people of Kent
have been agitating the water supply
question. After while it became coupled
with that of sewerage. The old council
down to action. Much was expected of
the new council when it assumed power,
but it, too, remained passive, or content
with talk, until Monday night. when the
members got down to work in fine shane.
Investigation revealed the fact that it is
impossible, under the present assessment,
to bond the town for sufficient amount
to put in an adequate water system. The
council thereupon determined to advertise
for proposals for franchise to put in first
class water-works, and accordingly the ad-
vertisement will appear this week.
After the award of the franchise is made
the citizens will be asked to vote upon the
question of bonding for sewerage purposes.
The action Of the council 10 receiving great
commentator from citizens of all classes,
and all will breathe easier when the work is
actually begun.
Next Monday night the council will be
called upon to vote for an ordinance for
the improvement of Fourth street its en-
tire length.
The fair association managers have de-
cided to hold spring racing meeting
June to 6, and also that the agricultural,
live stock and machinery exhibition will
take place here August 81 to September S.
This will be just previous TO hop-picking
time, and when farmers and business men
have time TO attend. Great preparations
will be made for the event. On the latter
occasion also there will be splendid racing.
Manager Van Bokkelen is already in CON-
munication with all the leading turfmen
of the Coast regarding the two meetings
and il receiving encouraging responses.
Every needed arrangement is being made
for the proper care of animals during the
training season. and the track will soon be
in admirable order for working" The
purses for the June racing will amount TO
s., 600 or upwards
Mayor Titus has issued call for a mass
meeting of citizens 10 discuss the question
of a speedy organization of town board of

ing made regarding the town and sur

sistance in his power 10 help along the

A Queer Discovery.

Before Watts, the discoverer of the present mode of making shot, had his notable dream, induced by over indulgence in stimulants, the manufacture in question was slow, laborious and consequently costly process. Great bars of lead had to be pounded into sheets of thickness nearly eansi to the diameter of the shot desired. These sheets had then to be cut into little cubes, placed in revolving barrel and there rolled around until, by the constant fric- ton, the edges wore eff from the lit tie cubes and they became spheroids.
 Watts had often racked his brain trying to discover some better and less costly scheme, but in van. Fin ally, after spending an evening with some boon companions at the ale house, he went home, went to bed and soon fell asleep. His slumbers, however, were disturbed by unwel- come dreams, in one of which he was out again with "the boys" and as they were stumbling home it be- gan to rain shot--beautiful globules of polished shining lead in such numbers that he and his companions had to seek shelter.
 In tue morning Watts remembered his curious dream, and it obtruded itself on his mind all day. He be- gan to wonder what shape molten lead would assume in falling through the air, and finally, 10 set his mind at rest, he ascended to the top of the steeple of the Church of St. Mary at Rodcliff, aud dropped slow ly and regularly ladleful of molten
 lead into the moat below, Decend- ing, he took from the bottom.of the shallow pool several handfuls of the most perfect shot he had ever seen. Watts fortune was made, for from this exploit emanated the idea of the shot tower, which ever since has been the only means employed in the manufacture of the little missiles so important to war and sport

That makes l39 votes. Of the total house membership l13 voles is the one third that would be fatal to such bill. Give the free coinage oppon- ents at the lowest estimate l25 votes. and you see the position. Such proceeding would mean precipitating that question into the next national contest. To elect a President we must have New York New Jersey and Connecticut. On such an issue they would be hopelessly lost to the democracy. Then would come the force bill. Having lost at the same time free coinage and low tariff, all we would gain would be military usurpation.

The Correct Way.

The Des Arc Guidon contains the following sensible article: We ask the farmers (small farmers to begin now and prepare for another year. Take the money you intended in- vesting in whiskey and buy chick ems. Instead of selling your corn and cotton seed to get Christmas money, hold it to enable you to keep out of debt the following year. Flow up your garden spot, and prepare to raise good garden and live out of it. Bend your every energy to live one year without going in debt, for more than you are absolutely obliged to buy. Place the limit to your store account at not over S20, and stick to it. Don't allow yourself to be put in harness another year, for you can live without it. Only begin in time and use 8 little head work and you can start in next spring with foundation upon which to base a support, but if you wait until spring, your only alternative will be to put the harness on and stand Tn the shafts, and after the merchant takes his seat behind you, you may buck and kick all you like, but you will have to stay there.

New Lumber Cutter.

NEW YORK, Nov. 11.-There was exhibited to day at Green Point, l.. l., machine which is expected to revoutionlze the lumber business. The machine cuts lumber without any waste and there is no sawdust whatever. The new invention, which is called the Bradley draw cutting machine, is designed to cut thin boards and blanks and will cut Tn different thickness varying from one thirtysecond of an inch to an inch. The inventor is Thomas $. Crane, an old lumberman. The workings of the machine at first looks complica- ted but after it is once in operation the simplicity of It's movement is apparent.
 The wood is cut by knife. This knife is on a slide while above is an other slide. It gets it's weight from q very heavy cross head, which is con nected with a rod. Just in front of the knife is a narrow roller which touches the log before the knife reaches it and steades it, the knife gets its horizontal motion from this connecting rod and it slices back and forth very smoothly. The difficulty is in getting vertical or draw mo- tion. This is necessary in order not to injure the fiber of the wood. It is provided for in this way: Above the upper slice is drum, which is moved by a wire rope back and forth as the cross head and the knife move. The drum is connected by wires with a spring that hangs directly over the knife and as the drum rcvolves, the spring contracts or lengthens, giving the draw motion.
 The log that is being cut is held fast by clamps to a feeding machine in winch is driven two clamps. The desired thickness is procured by using different sized cogs. The feed ing machine and the cutter are both run by the same engine. Every time the knife cuts off a quarter of an inch or whatever the desired thick ness may be, the log is pushed for ward that quarter of an inch. When the machine is in operation it looks very much like big knife running
 in groove and cutting cheese,
 To day the machine cut cherry, ash, birch and maple in thickness from a SiXtecntl to half inch. The machine is intended tD be placed in the woods and to cut the trees as soon as they are felled. Green wood is cut more easily than seasoned wood, but logs were cut up to day that had lain in the yard ten years.
 The machine weighs forty tons.

One Thing at a Time.

Roger c. Mills, in a conversation with New York World reporter a few days ago, sounded the key note of the battle which must. be fought next year. In reply to the question "What should be the democracy s position upon the tariff and silver questions in the next campaign?" replied as follows:
 "We must absolutely get together upon the great tariff question, on which the party is united in senti- ment. One great thing at time. All other questions should be put aside until relief along this line is secured To force the silver issue is to divide the party and force de- feat. Though a personal advocate of free silver, l see, as stated in my Mansfield speech that free coin age would give us barely eight or ten millions of circulation more than we have now. No one could get one dollar of that silver without working for it. A revision Gf the tariff to a revenue baais will, at fair estimate, say Sl000, 1000, ,000 year III the homes of America to consumers of $S, 900, ,000, 900 worth of manufact- ured products with no effort but enough democratic votes. The silver question is of minor moment beside the tariff question.
 Just suppose that a free coinage bull passed both houses ot the next congress, as it would, then suppose it should be vetoed, as it would, and then came back to the senate, where
