WOULD HURRY
LATERAL WORK
Arrangements MadeWith Sewer
Contractor Permit Prompt
Laying Of Laterals
SCALE OF PRICES FOR WORK

Now that the sewer system is prac-
tically complete and only waits accept
ance by the town, the question of lay
ing the laterals comes to the fore. Ar
rangements have been made between
the town, the board of health and An
tonic Costa, the contractor for the
sewers, to lay these laterals without
delay. Mayor-Elect Thomas w. Cauld-
well has the matter in hand and is Sc
curing many signers to contracts for
the work. Almost all the residents OF
several streets have signed and work is
to be started at once.
On the execution of each contract
the property owner is to deposit five
dollars with the town clerk, as re-
Quired by the road opening ordinance,
and this payment is to be regarded as
a payment to the contractor. On com.
pletion of the work and approval by
the board of health the owner is to pay
the balance due the contractor for the
laying Of the lateral at the rates as
computed by the representative of the
board of health and the deposit of five
dollars shall be paid by the town clerk
to the contractor when the road shall
have been properly restored according
to the provisions of the ordinance.
The following rates of compensation
for laying the lateral have been com
puted:
Five inch tile lateral six feet cut and
under forty-tive cents per foot.
Five inch tile lateral cut six to eight
| feet forty-nine cents per foot.
Five inch tile lateral cut eight to ter
| feet Sixty-nine cents per foot.
Five inch tile lateral cut ten tC
twelve feet ninety-three cents per foot
| Five inch tile lateral cutatwelve to
fourteen feet d.34 per foot.
Five inch tile lateral cut fourteen tt
sixteen feet $l.86 per foot.
Rock excavation (trench thir ty
inches) over and above said price 81
per yard.
|
said price ten cents per foot.
The specifications provide that the
material excavated shall be carefully
sorted to separate the paving material
and stored compactly on the sides o.
the trench. In back filling the mater
ial shall be replaced in six inch layers
and each layer thoroughly @mped o.
be flushed back with water as directed
by the representative of the board o.
health. The paving material shall
then be replaced in its original condi
tion or as near so as possible.
The contractor will at his own ex
pense do all necessary sheeting ane
bracing to protect the sides Of The
trench.
The pipe shall be laid to the line ant
lgrade given by the representative o
the board of health. The joints shall
be made according to his instructions
by caulking into each joint loosel,
twisted gasket of jute soaked in ce
ment grout and the remainder of th'
space filled and beyeled off from tn
outer edge Of the bell to the pipe SO al
to make an angle OF forty-tive degree
with the pipe, with Portland cemen
morter. The morter shall consist o
| two parts Of Portland cement and ON
part OF clean sharp sand. A followe
shall be used to keep the inside Of tn
pipe clean. The contractor shall con
/ meet the lateral to the sewer main AMI
| cap the end at the curb line with
\ tile cover cemented in.

Papa and mamma had to dine with
Aunt Briggs because she was ninety
years old and all alone, and Aunt
Briggs did not like little boys. So papa
and mamma looked very sad as they
kissed their hands for goodby, and
when the boy saw that he tried to look
as If he liked to be left behind and
smiled and kissed his hand to them
very cheerfully.
But after they were gone he felt very
solitary, SO he thought he would 60

gave bits Of cabbage to the snails that
lived down by the fence. He was sure
they must be very hungry because the
things they used to eat were all gone,

thieves, you know, because you used to
eat the peas and the celery, but 1 sup

The snails said nothing, but perhaps
they were grateful

THE GLEE CLUB CONCERT.

An Appreciative Audience GreeGs Lo-
cal Musicians Wednesday Evening.
The Morristown Glee club opened
the third season at the Lyceum on
Wednesday evening in it's annual au-
Cumn concert and was greeted by an
appreciative audience, whose expecta-
tions of a musical treat were in no
wise disappointed. The members of
the club we're in good voice and well
drilled in their parts, while the addi-
tion of Mrs. Sidney A. Baldwin as VIC
liniste, and Madame Emile Grey, as
harpiste, made pleasing variety.
Before the curtain rose the club
sang a selection from Schumann's
Traumerei, and then gathered around,
the piano and gave Forest-Harps,"
with violin, harp and piano accom-
paniment. This piece opened the
evenings entertainment most auspic-
iously, and the audience was thorough
iy responsive.
Mrs. Baldwin gave violin selection
sizes Adieux," (Melodi) by Sarasate,
showing fine command Of her instru-
ment, and so pleased the hearers that
an encore was demanded. For this
she gave a Madrigal by Simonetti,
which was very delicious.
The club then gave "The Handor-
gan Man." by Othegraven, which was
hit, and for an encore sang Doan'
We cry, my honey"
The audience was next treated to a
first lesson in harp posing, by couple
of young fellows, superyisedrby Direc-
tor Baldwin, and when they had dis
covered the business end of the kingly
instrument Madame Grey took it in
hand and interpreted Nordischer
Ballade," by Poelistz, which was, on
repeated applause, followed with an
encore. H. w. Parker's arrangement
of Loreley. was rendered by the
club so satisfactorily that the audi
dence demanded and secured repeti-
tion of the closing verses.
After brief intermission the second
part of the program was opened by the
club with "Alice, Where Art Thou
by Ascher, with harp accompaniment
The encore for this piece was "The
Scissors Grinder =
Mrs. Baldwin followed with Ma
zurka Characterisque,' by Wieniaw
ski, and b " Humoreske," by Dvorak
The encore of this part was Cradle
Lullaby" by Albert.
The club INDUCED in Canor
(round) by Lachn er-Buck, which
proved very funny to all and it was re
peated.
Madame Grey gave La Source" BY
Hasselman, on her harp, followed will
two encores.
The closing number was a Voca
Contest, arranged by Dudley Buck
The tenors sang two verses of Their
You'll Remember Me, and the bassei
followed with Rocked in the Cradle
of the Deep" two verses. The audi
ence was expected to decide upon thu
merits of the two efforts by applause
but the honors were so equally divided
that each party sang the remaining
verses together, the harmony being
perfect. The audience was not ready
to give up the affair and the club IL
response to repeated applause sang
Brahms " Lullaby"
Altogether the concert was very
creditable to all taking part and it Il
a satisfaction to know that local ia.
lent is being developed in this way
