WATER METERS NOW.
Patrons of High Water Pressure Ser-
 vice Must Use Them.

Property owners who will receive their water supply from the elevated 1 service will be very much interested in the proposition to meter all connecting with it. without reference to the size of the buildings or the value of the prop erty. It may be good place to apply the remedy for the waste of water, but many will think it strange to place the ? heavy end of the burden upon proper 1 ty that can least afford to bear it. It was h1nted to-day that it is simply an- other road to cheaper rates for the large consumers at the expense of the smaller ones. This may not be the case, but unless the order is accom- panied by a change in rates it is hard to see what else it means. The metered system in private families on the high service would make the price about 5 cents for each 100 gallons daily use. One may think this great deal of water, but woman would use it wash ing the dishes. When the quantity con- stunned exceeds 900 gallons daily then the price diminishes until it drops to half cent per 100 gallons. and proba- ply nfne-tenths of the big consumers get 1t at this figure, so unless the price for the first 100 gallons is made little less and the cost added to for large quantities the inequality in the price of water with the meter system will be so One-Sided that the small consumers will have considerably more than their share of the burden.
 The plan for the high service main is as follows: From the East Mountain reservoir down Dublin street to Silver street, the main traverses the latter street to East Main street, thence to Niagara street, to Wolcott street. down Wolcott to South Oak street, and thence following South Oak and Oak streets it reaches the northeast part Of the city, supplying Round Hill and part of Long Hill Thence through Farm, West Farm and Rock streets, it reaches Hill street and supplies Burnt Hill. Thence through Grown, Bishop and Pine streets and the Boulevard 1t reaches Columbia Heights, NorWood, Cottage park and other districts. From this point it follows new streets to the pumping station, which has not been exactly located.
 Another main line starts from Dub lin street and runs westerly through Washington street, South Main street and Washington avenue to Town Plot, supplying all the residents i'll these sec tions south of Scovil's bridge and be- yond the Naugatuck river A large number of houses now receiving an am pie supply from the Branch will be on the high service after 1t is ready for use. The subject is we'll worth a little consideration on the part of every per- son in the community, and especially those who will be expected to start off under the meter system.

FIXING UP SEATS
 IN CITY HALL

Tracy Bros Go is fixing the seats in the City hall and after a short time all the rickety old benches will be as good as new. Many thought that the hall would not be available for entertain ments during the coming fall and win ter, but the board of public works re- moved all doubts on this question at the last meeting by authorizing the agent to accept dates. up to the first of next January When that time comes it is thought the board will go step further in that direction. More room is needed for the officials down stairs, but the feeling Is growing against seek ing relief by cutting up the hall In the opinion of some of the wise heads it would be much better to fix up police court and aldermanic chamber ill the annex than rob the public of the benefits they derive from the use of the hall. If this were done the present quarters of the aldermen and space Oc- cupied by the city court would meet the requirements of the city officials and the auditorium of the hall could remain as it is. There is also very strong objection to putting the public comfort station under the town clerks office for sanitary reasons and because if it should be used to the extent such places are in cities of the size of Wa terbury it will be nuisance about the building. no matter how well it may be kept. People will be running nere and there through the corridor inquiring for the comfort station and as result the ianitor and the officials will have many and in some instances un- welcome callers.

soMR OF THE CHANGES.

As far as the trains on the Nauga- tuck division between this city and New Haven and Bridgeport and to New Haven via Chesire, are concerned, there Is no change. On the Highland division there will be several changes, particularly with the Sunday trains. The Sunday train leaving Hartford for this city at 6:3O p. m. will be discon- nnued. as will also the train leaving Danbury for Hartford. and passing through this city at 7;36 a. m. The train now leaving this city for Hart ford at 2 a. m. will leave Danbury at 6 a. m. However, 1t is said that the company intends to reduce the num- ber of trains for the balance of the heated term and that the old trains may be restored again in the fall if travel warrants 1t. If that is true there will probably be little or no com plaint when 1t becomes generally known. New timetables showing the changes will be placed in the hands of the station agents for distribution on Saturday afternoon.
