1t is very appropriate that the small

Island. The little lady is healthy and
presumably happy with a weight Oh
only II ounces, but although she Is
somewhat smaller than the average

comparison with the average baby
than her native state is in comparison

The 3G-day test of the new driven
we'll system in Brunswick, ended, last
week. From the wells there has been
pumped an average of about a million
gallons of water a day, so that the
total amount pumped in the entire test
will be about thirty million gallons. 1t
is difficult to appreciate such a vast
quantity when expressed in gallons.
The standpipe holds about $4,000 gall
Ions, and enough has been pumped to
fill that forty-six times. The Mall
contains about three acres. Thirty
million gallons would cover the Mall 30
feet deep. The Topsham fair grounds
inside the half mile track contain
about 1928 acres. Thirty million GAL
Ions would cover that area to a depth
of Z feet and inches. The same
quantity of water would fill IL inch
pipe reaching from Brunswick to Phil
adelphia. Here is another way of get
ting at it. A million gallons a day
would give three and half barrels of
water to every man, woman and child
in the limits Of the town of Brurs-
wick. or nearly sixty pailsful to each
inhabitant. Estimating the average
family to include five persons. that
would be not far from 800 pals of
water a day. These illustrations in
dictate that the capacity Of the wells is
far in excess of the needs Of the water
district. AS to the excellent quality of
the water that is admitted by every
body and proven by analysis. All the
brick work in the new pumping station
was completed last week and the
eighty-foot chimney is about two
| thirds completed. The work is well
along and it is probable that a connec-
| ton will be made with the main in the
Bath road very soon. The trustees
are awaiting the decision of the law
court on the questions submitted last
spring and when that is received there
| is likely to be no further delay of the
hearing. AS soon as the appraisers fix
the sum that the district must pay fol
