THE WATER Works On Wednesday
last our town officials received from Civil
Engineer Paret the plans and specifications
for the Middletown water works, and they
will doubtless soon advertise for bids to
complete the work. We will state here that
during the protracted drought the town
spring near High Knob, from which 1t is
proposed to obtain a supply Of water, ran a
stream of at least 81 inches The measure
ment was made by means of a stove pipe.
Three inches ran through the pipe, and one
half irch through pipe leading to Mr..
Wiles' springhouse.- Valley Register.

s. Co., the enterprlsing coach builders Of
Motters Station have just completed con-
veyance for DR.. NJ. f. Leatherman that is q
wholly new design and to best describe it by
term, it should Ike called cab.topped phe-
ton 1t is one Of the ncatest and at the
same time one of the most attractive vehicles
that we have ever seen. The material is OF
the very best and the workmanship cannot
be excclled anywhere. Should this enter.
prising firm determine to build more of them
we believe they would sell to professional
men in cities against anything built to-day.
This brief sketch does not do this piece Of
work justice: it must be seen in order to be
fully appreciated; good judges will award it
all and more than haye we claimed for 1t.

pointed and went home without peaches

bushel.
