sJyIHIAGiUA,

Oct. s.-The long urougth or the past summer was mufe tnan sbnie fesef'oirs could stand. and suiHe oI our cities nave had to resort 10 other means Tor il sup ply of water. Not 80 with the borough of soutningIon. The southington Wa fer Co.'S reservoir has done tuily all that il was said it would do when II was being built in 1883. and for long series or years there will be an ample supply Of water here. provided Il IS used with due care. The quality Of the water as tested by the state chemist IS equal to that of any reservoir water m the state. The Southington reservoirs tbere are two Of them, are situated about four miles southwest of Southins- ton center, and about three-tourhs oi mile from the Waterbury resetVoiF' The source of the supply Is in the Hum miston springs and the water IS clear and sweet. The storage rcserVoir IS sit- mated nve hundred and thirty rect above the level Of the town. l, IS near the top of Wolcott .acuntain and us water shed Is about two and q half square miles. This gives it capacity of sixty million gallons. The dam is five hundred feet long and its highest point Is thirty feet high. The top Of the dam is sixteen feet wide and its base Is one hundred and twenty-one feet w!oe The water sets back twenty-onc thou sand feet and covers an area or twenty four acres. Down the mountain side about one-half mile Is the distributing reservoir, which has capacity or three million gallons. The cost of both reser- yoirs was 1000, the receiving reser- yoir costing s15,000 and the distributing reservoir s6,000. The cost of pipes ana fixtures was $33.Ooo, and the laying or ripes $l4,O00. The cost of land and wa ter rights make the total outlay over s70,O0O. The force of the water Tn the town center Is sufficient to throw stream over the tallest buildings. and no need of fire engine has been aoso- Iutely felt here as yet. The test of the hydrants which get their water from this source will be tried again next Sat urday at the annual parade Of the Southington fire department. Twelve years ago this imporant town was with out water supply and had no fire de- partment, but with the building Of the reservoirs came the organization of four companies which form the fire depart ment.

THEY KILLED THE SNAKE.
An Ars mia woman's Adventure With a
 Black Kept le.

An Ars mia Woman's Adventure With
 Black Kept le.
 From tse Ansonia Sentinel.l
 A well-known lady of Ansona is the heroine of a snake story which, though the incident happened several weeks ago, is not generally known except to the members and intimate friends of the family It had been a very warm day and just before night the lady wen. up stairs to throw open the shutters so as to cool the chambers as much as possible In one room she opened the blinds and turned to close closet door when she caught glimpse of some black object squirming on the floor. She knew that it was black snake, also that it must have entered the room by climbing up some vines which run up the side of the house close to the window.
 All this passed through her mind as she rushed from the room, closing the door behind her, and appearing in the presence of her husband and friends looking as though she had seen a ghost. They implored her to tell them what was the matter as she sank into chair nearly fainting with fright. As soon as she could speak she asked in fright ened voice, "How do you suppose a snake got into that chamber?" The husband secured club, the uncle g-asped his cane, and started for the room to kill the snake or die in the at tempt. The lady interposed. She l would not let them enter alone for she knew the snake would escape from them. They wanted to enter, but she was obdurate, and not until third man had put in an appearance, well armed with heavy club, would she allow the door to be opened, and as soon as they entered she closed 1t and held it firmly so the snake could not get out. She listened for the signs of the struggle. None came, and at last she asked if thy had killed the reptile and they replied that they had.
 She opened the door and one of the three brave men held up the snake which proved to be black veil drawr into a string which had caught on ths door and moved with 1t in snake-lik, manner. The reaction was great ant the lady nearly fainted when she real ized what 1t was. Then she began tt laugh hysterically. and when snake. are mentioned to-day the whole famil, | go into fits of laughter.

The Indian. fayorits Tree.

To the Indian of the great western plains the red willow. which is found only in that country. proves so very useful that its loss would be greatly felt by them. It Is bushy growth new CT reaching more than fifteen or twen- ty feet in height. and is found along the river banks. where it grows rapidly and in great abundance.
 The Indian most values the wild will low because from It's bark he makes what Is for him a very good substitute for tobacco. To do this he strips one of the long slender shoots of Its leaves, and with his knife cuts the bark until it hangs from the wood in little shreds. Then he thrusts the stick Into the fire. but not so that 1t will burn. only so that the bark will become thoroughly dried. When this Is done he carefully rubs it between his hands until It Is crumbied almost to a powder.
 This willow bark powder he mixes with a small quantity of real tobacco if he has any: if not he mixes 1t with the dried and crumpled leaf of small and very bitter shrub that grows on the mountain sides and has leaf looking somewhat like our box-wood. The h. dians call it killicanick and often mix 1t with tobacco when they have no red willow. So fond are the Indians of this red-willow tobacco that they pre- fer it to the real unmixed article, which seems to be too strong for them. The suuaws use the red-willow to maki temporary shelters or wick-i-ups which are used instead of the heavy skin lodges or tepees when the Indians arc on the move and only camping in one place for a night or so.
 When a pleasant spot by some run ming stream where there is plenty Of red willow has been fixed upon for camping place and fire has been lighted, the squaws cut quantity of the willow, and making a rude frame work of the larger branches, of which the butt ends are fixed firmly into the ground and the small ends bound to- gether to look like a small dome; they weave the small branches and twigs in and out until the whole affair looks like a great leafy basket turned upside down. The entrance Is very low, and
 
 only lie or sit down, for if he should stand up he would probably lift the house with him.
 While the squaws are building the wick-i-ups the Indian has been stretched on the ground, smoking his long-stemmed pipe, with it's stone or iron bowl, or else he has been kneeling beside the fire preparing his much loved red-willow tobacco. Over the same fire is hung jack-rabbit, skinned and spitted upon slender red willow stick, and from tree near by the baby swings in his red-willow era dle.
 From the same red-willow the squaws make baskets and mats, On its ten- der twigs the ponies browse in winter, when the grass is covered deep with snow And to these same red-willow thickets the Indians go in winter in search of deer or antelope, which are pretty sure to be found browsing among them. The Indian, therefore, has good reasons to be fond of the red-wlllow, and he dreads the approach of white farmers, who clear it off from the rich bottom-lands wherever they locate, for it is on these lands that they can raise their heaviest crops of corn.-- Detroit Free Press.
