Progress of the Wafer Works

Despite the unfavorable weather the
works are making rapid progress, and
in two or three weeks more will be in
full swing. The pump house is worth
a visit now. 1t is rooted in, the pump
in its place, and the engines and boil
er about to be set. The well is all but
finished, and a formidable affair it
looks. 1t was meant at first that the
we'll, which is close by the pump
house, should only be 10 feet each
way, but on more mature considera-
ton it has been decided to make 1t 20
feet in diameter by IA feet deep. This
enlargement was decided on after the
contract was let, but no money is lost
by that change. The Council, wise in
their day and generation, have ar
ranged with the contractors, Messrs.
Harrison & Co., to have the we'll en-
larged for what it will cost in their
mems wages, with 10 per cent. addi-
tional for use of tools and trouble.
The Councils inspector, Mr.. Eugene
King, of St. John, Michigan, says that
it will not cost more than $500, where
as the contractors wanted $500 for do
ing it. Another good stroke of bust
ness for the town in way Of saving the
rate payers pockets, the council have
done, is to haye kept the capturing of
the springs in their own hands. The
water supply is meantime to be taken
from two springs some thirty rods
from the river. The estim ate of the
contractors for taking these springs
into the we'll was $3.50. They did not
care to risk it for less than that, be-
cause they anticipated a great amount
of falling in of earth in the bitches
while the capture was being made.
Mr.. King has been able to do it for
the council at about $3.50, thus saw
ing $1,000. If more water should be
required than those two springs pro-
duce there is series of springs quite
near by in the bluff which can at any
time be captured and turned to them
we'll. The springs turned in, give out
about $4,000 gallons a day. That is
the capacity of the we'll, and the ca
pacity of the cistern is $4,000 gallons.
In the event of fire the cistern would
be first emptied, then the we'll, and il
more water is needed still the liver
comes to the rescue with an unlimited
quantity. But unless all the houses
in the town were simultaneous y being
set on fire, there is no likelihood of the
cistern ever being emptied for the
purpose of putting out fire. Mr.. King
says the last town he put water works
into had $500 inhabitants, and had be-
sides 20 factory boilers going all day
and $4,000 gallons a day has PROVED
more than sufficient for all ordinary
purposes. Thus there is no likelihood
for many years to come, of water be
ing required to be taken from the riv
or or even more springs turned into
the we'll. If an emergency SHOULD
arise, the connection with the river i:
made and has only to be turned on a
a moments notice. The Council has
evidently been fortunate in the choict
of its inspector, who looks man wide
awake to all that is going on, and no
likely to tolerate any slip-shod work i
that were to be done; but such thing
is not likely to occur under the eye o
a man of the capability of Mr.. Mills
the contractors engineer.

New Move Among the Young People.
A meeting of young men and wo-
men was held in the Presbyterian
church on Monday evening for the
purpose of discussing the subject of
young people taking up some type of
practical Christian or social work in
the town. There were over thirty
present. The Presbyterian, Methodist,
Christian and Episcopal churches
were represented, and a lively talk
was carried on for one hour and half
about the different kinds of work that
might be undertaken, and the kind of
organization that might be formed for
carrying out such work. At the close
it was decided by ballot that the soci-
cites OF the different churches should
form the basis of the organization, and
it was arranged that three members
from each of those societies, to be ap-
pointed on Sunday next, should form
a committee to consider details and
report to an adjourned general meet
ing of young people to be held in the
same place on the 18th of July at 8
o'clock.

JULY FOURTH.
An industrial Display to be the Geeat
Feature of the Parade.

FeaCufe OF the Parade.
Especial prominence is to be given
to the Fourth of July parade here next
Monday. Nearly thirty of our business
men promise to fit up floats for the
procession; which will be an mnova-
ion in the right direction.
Nice picnic grounds for the fourth
have been cleared away on the Willard
lots west of Capt. Dunnington's. This
will make it convenient for picnickers
to spread their lunches in the vicinity
of the falls, after the exercises.
A local horseman gave us tip on
the 18th of July races yesterday. He
said there would be lots of entries,a and
that more than one of them would be
flyers, too.
The committee on decoration for
18th of July request that all houses
and places of business be decorated as
far as pra cticable, on that day.

Everybody in this vicinity who could
get away last Saturday afternoon, went
to the Cook & Whitby circus, and so
far as we have heard, all were salts
fed that the outfit gave them their
moneys worth of entertainment. The
animal collection was above the aver
age, while the horses and the music
were simply superb. Other commend
able features were the freshness and
variety of the programme and the alb
sence of stale funny business and con-
spicuously above the rest, the racing
or hippodrome performances at the
close. Along with this commentator,
a protest is in order, against one of the
innovations introduced into the ring
the advertising act, in which one of
the clowns introduced the name and
business of one of our merchants in
each line. 1t is questionable whether
there was anything in it as an adver-
tisement, and in an amusement pro-
gramme it was simply an impertin-
ence. The street parade preceding
the circus was an Endorsement of the
boast of the company in regard to fine
horses, and the balloon ascension came
off after the performance, dog being
substituted for the horse as advertised
Both man and dog descended with
out injury. ~
