SEWER EXTENSION
Could Be Built More ProfitabIy Under
 Present Conditions.

The Petrossi company will probably finish the work of extending the sewer through Water street this week, as the work is now we'll advanced. the digging easy and the depth of the trench a great deal less than 1t has been through the lower part of the street. The present line of'excavation will be continued through to Main street, where connection will be made with the trunk line sewer.
 This (Monday) evening the voters will be called upon to pAss on pro- posed sewer extensions for 1910. MT. Petrossi, in speaking of what action may be taken at the borough meeting, said that if the Borough fs going to build more sewer lines, being on the ground with his lumber other equip ment and laborers, he would be able to do the work several hundred dol lars cheaper than he would if he had to go to the expense of getting ready under ordinary conditions.

WANT HYDRANT REPLACED.
Residents of School Street to Petition
 for Means of Fire Protection.

Don1inick Nado will start petition to the warden and court of burgesses this (Monday) morning to have the hydrant replaced that was taken away from a position on School street just opposite the high school on Friday. This hydrant fs now located farther down the street, opposite the factory of the Jacobs Manufacturing company close to another hydrant on Cottage street. The change leaves a big sec tion of property in that section of the borough without adequate protection in case of fire This hydrant would have been of special value in fighting fires from the rear that might possi- ply originate in the buildings fronting Main street between Center street and the Central house, or for fires on Cen ter street, not to mention School street buildings. A number have already ex- pressed a wiliingr ess to sign the peti- ton to have the hydrant restored.

OVER 5000 BUTTONS
Issued to Children of New Haven Schools Interested in Spotless Town.

Up to Wednesday night the Civic Federation had issued e.ooo buttons to the children of the various schools in the city, who are interested fin the work of New Haven's sanitary clean up.
 At that hour it was said that the movement of the federation in this direction was more successful this year than it has ever been known in the past two years. that the effort has been carried on; because the peo- pie now understand exactly what the Civic federation is working for. and again because there is the strongest desire of the general public to CO., operate in this matter.
 As a result New Haven will see a cleaner city this spring than 1t has ever seen. The work, however, is so extensive, that 1t will probably be neo- essary for its extension into next week.
 The school children are entering heartily into 1t, and there Is the greatest amount of interest expressed among the parents of these children. New Haven Journal-Courfer.
