WATER BILLS SENT OUT.
Owners of Property Where Meters
 Have. Been Installed Not Satisfied 5

The water bills are now being sent out and some people who have received them are appalled, at the increase ill the amounts over last year. The ad- vance in price is confined to owners of property where meters have been ill., stalled within the last half year or so. One man was in the City hall last night with two bills, one for trifie over S5 for four months without il me ter and another for nearly a similar sum for two months in the same house with a meter. He was angry, but somebody pacified him by stating that probably. there, was some oGniStake about the bills. But this was not the case. What made the man all the mad der was because he uses so little wa ter, but he won't mind that after he gets used to the meter and finds that in some instances the less he uses the more he will have to pay. For exam pie. if his bill is less than $25 In the rounds of the year he will be charged $2.J0 for the use of the little machine that put up the price on him. If you consume less than 800 gallons daily the meter rates are 3 cents per 100 gallons. For quantities in excess of 800 gallons up to 2,000 gallons daily average, ? cents a hundred gallons; for quantities over 2,000 gallons up to 10000 gallons daily average, cent per 100 gallons; for quantities in excess of 10000 gallons daily average, such rates as shall be fixed by the commits sioners. not less than half cent for each 100 gallons. The scale of prices is very much in favor of the large con-. sumers, and this is defended in certain quarters on the ground that in bilsi- ness affairs all who buy in large qual-. titles receive liberal discount. but some claim that this is contrary to law and contend that the price of wa ter wherever it is served by the city to it's Inhabitants must be uniform.

BOARD OF CHARITIES.
Took Formal Action Regarding Plac. ing of Stone Crusher at Broo oNside.

The department of charities met yes ferday afternoon and took formal ac- ton relative to the placing of the stone crusher at the town farm, q vote being offered and passed unanimously re. questing the department of public works to set it up there as soon as possible. The material for the chair repairing department Is being collect. ed to-day and operations will begin during the present week. The scope of these new departures was told in yesterdays issue of the Democrat and was a big surprise to the public The matter was discussed to some extent about town last night and while some folks didn't think much of it. it would seem from what one could gather that both projects ought to pay and that everybody who is able to earn dollar in that way should be obliged to do so.
 The regular bills were approved and the estimates for 1905 prepared and submitted to the board of finance as follows: Brookside home, $15.OOO; hospitals. $14.0OO: outside poor, S13. GOO; physicians $1,000. The item for the Bfookside home is increased $500; the sum of $500 is added to hospitals, and outside poor is decreased $1,O0O. The appropriation for physicians is re- duced $2OO. The total Is S43,O0O, just s200 less than that of last vear-

READY FOR VOTING TUESDAY.
Aldermen Designate Places Where Booths Will be To.
 cated-Brooklyn Eagle Says Parker Will be Elected.

The aldermen met last night and acted upon the report of the depart ment of public works regarding voting booths for the November election. The places designated in the report were as follows: First district. state ar, mory: second district temporary shea on north side of green and Carter's hall, Waterville; third district, corridor of City hall; fourth district, Jacques auditorium; fifth district, 57 Jefferson street
 Alderman Murray objected to D Jefferson street as q polling place for the fifth district on the ground of un> suitability and succeeded in getting q vote passed directing the board of pub- lie works to erect q suitable structule on Union square park for that pun pose. This the alderman considered more central than Jefferson or Scovih streets and would put all the voters of the ward in position to vote without losing too much time. The report aa amended was then adopted. It was also voted to instruct the board of pulp lie works to see that all the booths are properly lighted.
 If the republican representatives ap- point Attorney H. R. Durant of this city as the assistant clerk Of the house they will make no mistake ill theif choice. He has the training and voice which seem to especially qualify him for the position, setting aside what ever claims New Haven county may have for recognition among the clerk ships. It does not seem as though the political strength of the Hartforo crowd would be sufficient to defeat man who is obviously the best man for the place.

JAPANESE LEGEND
OF REIHCARNATIOH

/ The very first night on the islands /
stopped with peasant in the village
of Mo-Chida-No-u IRA, who told me of
a man who had once lived there, so
poor ne was afraid to have children.
And each time that his wife bore him a
child he cast it into the river. and pre-
tended that it had been born dead.
Sometimes it was a son, sometimes a
daughter, but always the infant was
| thrown into the river at night. Six
We're thus murdered.
But as the years passed the man
found himself more prosperous. He had
been able to purchase land and lay by
money. And at last his wife bore him
a seventh child--a boy.
Then the man said: Now we can
support a child, and we shall need a
son to support us when we are old.
And this boy is beautiful. So we viii
bring him up
And the infant thrived; and each day
the hard peasant wondered lnore at
his own heart-for each day he knew he
loved his son more.
One summer night he walked out
into the garden, carrying the child in
his arms. The little one was five
months old
And the night was so beautiful. with
its great moon, that the peasant cried
out:
20, tonight truly wondrously beauti-
full night ISL
Then the infant, looking up into his
face and speaking the speech of a man,
said:
why, father, the last time you threw
me away the night was just like this.
and the moon looked just the same, did
it not?"
And thereafter the child remained as
other children of the same age, and
spoke no word.
The peasant became a monk.
The legend is the outgrowth of GER
tain weirdly beautiful consultations of |
the Buddhist faith. The particular one |
to which this might be traced is one
which teaches the young mother who |
loses her first child that. she may at /
least pray that it will come back to her
out of the night Of death, not in dreams
only, but through reincarnation. And /
so praying she writes within the hand t
of the little corpse the first telegraph
of her lost darling's name.
Months pass; she again becomes a
mother. Eagerly she examines the
hand of the infant. And,
10! the self-same telegraph is there-a
rosy birthmark on the tender palm;
and the son returned looks out upon her
through the eyes of the newly born with
the gaze of other days.

FLOWER CARNIVAL
DETAIL CHANGED

Because of the large number of en-
| tries in the classes for children at the
/ Flower Carnival to be held next Satur-
day afternoon and the limited space in
the ST. Clements rectory grounds, it
has been decided to eliminate from the
| program the entries for the carriages
and phaetons driven by adults. The
idea of the carnival has taken SO
strong a hold, however, that some of
those who intended to make entries in
this class would only consent to its be-
| ing cut out on condition that another
carnival. on larger scale and on big
ger grounds, should be given next
spring. This viii be done. The Prin-
cess Kawananakoa, who was preparing
an entry, is one of those anxious for
such an event ana has promised with
number of her friends to assist in it.
All the other plans arranged for next
Saturday, however, will be carried out.
The management is arranging to have
a man to hold and lead each horse or
other animal, 50 that there need be no
fear of accidents. besides giving an adj
ditional spectacular effect.
Among the prizes already offered are
a handsome Hawaiian souvenir tankard
by H. F. Wichman; an enameled Ha-
waiian coat-of-arms pin by H. E. Fos-
ter; two handsome souvenir spoons by
H. Dietz; handsome picture, beauti-
fully mounted, by Rice & Perkins; Mil
Ter is giving quantity of candy: Mrs.
Anna Wright has given handsome
urn-shaped silver cup for first prize in
one of the classes; William Thompson

The chief question thus presented is
whether this joint writing, construed
in the light of all the surrounding
facts and circumstances. the purpose
of its execution and the situation of the
parties. all of which deem it is proper
to consider, constitutes mere contract
of guaranty or an original, independ-
ent promise. In my opinion it is not a
mere guaranty, and, while it may con-
tain some of the elements of a con-
tract of guaranty it also contains the
elements of an original and independ-
ent promise. It is apparent that the
defendants expected some benefit to
themselves by reason of the compile
ton of the proposed Improvement to
the channel. The consideration is
equally apparent-namely, that the
