Curiou. Punishment for Servants.

Servants in the Isle Of Man who re-
fuse to complete the period of service
for which they are engaged are liable
to curious punishment. In a case
before the magistrate at Peel recently
William Corlett, farm laborer, was
charged with refusing to carry out his
engagement. 1t was stated that the
penalty provided by a statute of 1865
is that the servant is to be kept in
prison and allowed one cake and a
cup of water per day until he returns
to service. Corlett was spared this
punishment, as the magistrate was sat
listed that he had not engaged to serve
a stated period.

During the year four hundred and eight
cen feet OF finch water main was laid on
Grover street, leaving about two hundred

extend this main when completed to the
Comstock main, distance of three hun
dred and thirty feet, which would make It

AS the Grover street main was laid from

pense OF the labor was charged to It, no
new material being used in its construction.
At the present time no four-inch pipe is
