Visitors to Crystal Springs are treat
ed to a very novel sight these days. A
new well is being sunk to obtain a
greater supply of water, and the pro-
cess is very interesting one The
method is the same as is employed in
sinking oil wells in the Pennsylvania
oil fields, the old walking beam engine
being in operation daily. To see the
machinery working is well worth a
trip to the springs.

DREYFUS, GLOOMY 0Drroor

1t is philosophic truism that men

PreJudices, prelikes and dislikes inf1u-
ence even the best mentioned and i'm
partial. But the past has shown that
French tribunals, both civil and mill
tary, are very far from impartial. The
latter especially so.
In the Dreyfus case, national pride
esprit dc corps and the certainty of So
eial ostracism by members of their own
caste will be powerful factors in infiu-
encing Col. Jouaust and his colleagues
to render a verdict unfavorable to
| Dreyfus.
AS the long, tedious testimony is
retailed for the hundredth time, as the
Well-thumbed forgeries are agar
placed in evidence, Americans general
ly and lovers of justice all over the
World have been watching for points

dacity that excites wonder and almost
admiration. Their lies, although ride
ulous, were left almost mistaken by the
successful issue of the plot to deprive
Dreyfus Of the one man who could aid
him. Demange's examination of the
witnesses was Unexpectedly weak.
Unless the defence has up its sleeve
some trump card, some Unexpectedly
strong piece of evidence, Dreyfus' case
looks hopeless. OF course, Emperor
Wilhelm might come forward like q
Deus ex machina and reveal the name
Of the true traitor. But that is improb.

BIG BATCH OF RECRUITS.
Capt. Gresham Nusters Nine Men and
Has Four on the Waiting List.

Has Four on the Waiting List.
A squad from Co. K of the Ninth reg
iment, from Clinton, could not with
stand the ravages of the war fever, and
yesterday presented themselves at the
local recruiting station and preferred
their services in the Thirty-fi United
States volunteers to nght the Filipi-
nos. They passed the physical exam
instions with colors flying, and some
left last night on the o'clock train for
Vancouver barracks, where the Thir-
ty-fifth is now stationed. The others
will not leave until Monday night, for
the rush was SO great at the office yes
terday that Capt. ]. G. Gresham was
unable to muster them in.
All the men saw war service in the
siege before the city Of Santiago, and
make very desirable recruits. In all.
yesterday, Capt. Gresham mustered in
nine recruits with four others who had
passed, waiting to be sworn in. Capt
Gresham had to leave on the afternoon
train for Providence, and was unable to
complete the enlistments. Those that
were mustered are Frank E. Smith Of
Bellows Falls, Herbert Chase of MARI
boro, James Patterson of Whitinsville,
James ]. Martin of this city, Thomas
Mentally of Pfttsf1eld, Michael T. Du-
ran of Clinton, formerly Of the Ninth

another member Of that company Mar
tin F. Phelps, Of Clinton, Eugene Hill
of Boston, formerly of Co. H of the
Twelfth regulars, and Napoleon r.
Young of this city. With the exception
81 the latter, who goes to Fort Slocumb
for the unassigned cavalry, they all left

L. -
will enter the Thirty-fifth volunteers.
The party was in charge of Eugene
Hill, whose experience in the regular
army gives him the preference of be-
ing in command of the squad.
Those who passed the required ply
sical examination, but who failed to be
in time to be mustered in, were Miles
Mitchell of Clinton, Charles H. Saw
age of Clinton, Arthur Paranto of Web
ster. and Napoleon Phaneuf of South
bridge. These men will be mustered
Monday, and will leave that night
for Vancouver barracks for the Thirty
fifth volunteers.
An instance of what war-fevered
young man Will do to get into the army,
occurred at the local recruiting Office
yesterday, when youngster who look
ed as though he had Just shaken his
knee pants, holted into the Office and
nervously asked Capt. Gresham if he
could not go to the Philippines and do
away with a few Filipinos. The young
ster looked as though he might have
been fifteen years Of age, but when the
captain asked him what his age was. he
replied, Twenty years old" The can
tain told him he looked more like *
years of age, and asked II his parents
were agreeable to his enlisting, and
thereupon the youngster pulled out a
paper which he said his mother mad
signed. He was turned over TO Or

Another chapter in the Arctic tragedy
has been closed by the return Of the
Walter Wellman party or that portion
OF it which has survived the hardships
OF the realm of ice. New lands and
new Islands have been discovered. and
regions hitherto unknown were ex-
plored, but to what purpose? Is the
mystery Of the boreal pole, if there is
anything in that dread region of death,
which cannot be appropriated from
what is already known, worth the time
and the epense and the hardships en-
dured by explorers? In Wellman,s
case, as in that of his predecessors. the
chief aim of the expedition, to reach the
pole, was thwarted, and such fruits of
the journey in the ice as the party
brings back were incidental if not ao-
cidental. Wellman comes back with his
life, but crippled, probably permanent
ly The next thing in Importance TO
reaching the pole was to obtain traces
Of Andree, but none were found.

The Dreyfus case promises to leave
the French people without a grace or a
virtue, for it appears that in addition
to forgery and assassination which
they have engaged in so recklessly, the
charming wife of Labor has been a
target for anonymous letters from cow
ardly ours. Such communications seem
to accompany forgery and assassina-
ton as naturally as jackals hunt their
prey with wolves. The Molineux case
in which Ms. Adams was poisoned by
an anonymous letter writer, is a case
in point. 1t is a complex network of
forgery and anonymity. The French
have always been rated too chivalrous
to assail women through threatening
letters Of an anonymous nature, but
the Dreyfus case has developed earth
worms.
