leak up 10 FIVE and one half ieet
and the cause for the leak above
that point is apparent as there is
nothing TO support the walls, the

slope to every foot of rise. The
Town also agreed to put in a
larger pipe as an overflow in the
small reservoir or catch bas n,
for when the catch basin filled up
the inch pipe used as an over
flow was not sufficient to carry it
off and the east side of the catch
basin being trifle the lowest the
overflow stopped over into the

work. The town also agreed to
plug up leak that was caused by
the leaky condition of the valve
connecting the Reservoir with
the City mains. and this was the
only part of their contract that
they ever attempted to perform.

the postal laws and regulations. Sec
lions 1856 and 1887 were enacted to

Curious Ways In Which Authors Have

Others take the cold light of day. /
belieye, though, most writer's like the
night for creative work. Southey al
ways wrote in the evening. and Schll-
Ter would sit at his desk all night with
bottle of champagne before him un-
less he was walking the floor In room
filled with the scent of rotten apples,
which he always kept In his desk.
Queer, wasn't II, that Balzac was an
other writer who claimed the sIlences
Of the night for artistic work and By
ron would return from a ball or the
ater and scribble until daylight? Most
people think he was intemperate, but
In reality he ate little and drank guam
titles of green tea for inspiration and
stimulant for his nerves. Bulwer

In ten days
"All this shows the abnormallty of
genius, but 1t is nothing to what some
crank writer's get into their heads as
necessary inspiration for work. know
one writer who keeps little Greek
Icon on his desk, and when things go
wrong he slaps it vigorously until he
has worked up the right chain Of
thought. 1t is Infinitely more refined
than expletives and does seem to In
woke thought. Every one knows that
Dickens had quaint bronze figures on
his desk and that he felt he could
not write unless they were there, to-
gether with vivid blue Ink and coarse
quill pen, while Hawthorne always de-
sired to work in a dressing gown, on
one cor0er OF which lie wiped his pen
until his wife sewed over the inky spot
gayly colored pen wiper, which al
ways remained In that place.
Hawthorne did not care to eat. but
Addison always had his wine. Schiller
drank coffee, and Shelley munched dry
bread voraciously. This was equaled
by Burns who got inspiration from n
punch bowl, and Wordsworth. who
talked aloud so much to himself that
the people on the street thought him
crazy. Rants biographer says he was
so dependent Oh the sight of an old
tower for inspiration that he had the
trees cut down so he could see IT, and
Hawthorne's dressing gown was to
him what Buffon's dress suit and hair
powdered twice day were TO him, a
stlmulant and necessity.
Taken all together, fear we are n
queer lot of men. To some of us pain
is actually stimulant, like Stevenson,
who worked until his last, and Walter
Scott, who used to dictate between
groans and then spring from bed and
act the part out."-New York Herald.
