view, but there will continue to be a good sized stream for many days to come. Mohegan lake has not been dropping as much during the past few days as previously, there being quite a stream flowing in there. The pres sure has increased greatly, being 70 pounds at the water office and S5 at the apartments shop in Chestnut street, which is nearly normal.
 Water is being secured everywhere in the city at the present time, so that the water carts have been tenn porarilv discontinued. The use of spring water is keeping up, however, and will for some time. Fully a two weeks supply was secured from the last rain and it will carry the city well by the time when the Trading Cove water is pumped into the mains.
 Trimming for Electric Line.
 Superintendent Bogue had his men at work Tuesday. trimming the trees, where the electric wires will be placed This caused a let-up on the work of stringins the wires. but the trimming, 1t is thought, will be finished today, and some of the wire may be stretch ed The wire from the station to the New London turnpike is all up and two more days work on the wire will complete it. The transformers have been put up and are in readiness. The outriggers necessary on some of the poles have been secured, and the job will be a short one from now on.
 City Meeting Not Called.
 There has been no call for the ,pa- cial city meeting to consider Jordan brook as a site for a new watershed and such a meeting cannot be held this week, as a five days notice is required. There seems to be no Eur- ry about considering permanent sup ply at the present time, as the outcome of the temporary supply is what is in- teresting the people at present.

STEAMER SIGHTSEER
 TO BE MADE LONGER
Twenty Feet to Be Added Amidship
 at Bath, Me.

One of the most travelled little ex- curison boats that ever ployed the waters of the bay has once more changed hands. says the Boston Globe.
 Boston steamboat men well remem- Der the City of Quincy, built at Brain tree in 1891, and first run on the Ma hant route. For seven years she hailed from Boston, but in 1901 was sold to New York parties. She was placed in the excursion business about New York harbor, and her name changed to Taniwha
 In 1906 the Taniwha was purchased in Bermuda, and safely made the stormy passage of 750 miles across the Gulf stream. There for two winters she was employed as steam tender at Hamilton harbor. Her duties con sisted of ferrying passengers bttWeen the New York, London and Halifax steamers, which, except at favorable times of tide, could venture no further than Grassy bay and the docks at Hamilton, five miles up the channel.
 Finally the Taniwha was replaced by another and larger American built steamer, the Corona, which originally piled on the Hudson. She hauled down the cross of St. George and came back to the coast two years ago. Her name was again changed, this time to Sight seer and under Norwich ownership she was placed in service on the IhameS between nsT nome pOIt anu New London.
 Last spring the Sightseer was char tered by the newly organized Southern Maine Steamship Co. of Portsmouth, N. H., and run on the route between that city and the Isles of Shoals. In September the steamer was purchased by the company, which intends to use her on the line permanently in con- junction with much larger steamer to be run from Portsmouth to Boston.
 Yet another move however, in the Sightseer's checkered career is con- tempIated This winter she is to be taken to Bath, cut in two, and 20 feet put in her amidships. She is now 86 feet long, 21 feet wide and eight feet deep, with a gross tonnage of 15l and a net register of 102.
 Capt. Frank C. Gates of the Sight seer is one of the oldest steamboat captains in New England waters, his license as pilot dating from 1858. In- | deed, it is claimed that his is license No. 1 in Boston, Captain Doane of the tug Onward taking second place

It was thought that all the pipe nec- essary to complete the pipe line had been carted to the trench at East Great Plain, but it was found that more is needed, and that was being carted there on Tuesday, which held up the work of laying somewhat. Contractor Torrance is less than two hundred feet of the New London turn pike, while Contractor Dodd is at work on the Manwarring property. The laying of the pipe will be com pleted today. There remains a little pipe to be put in at the brook end and Contractor Torrance had his men at work there on Tuesday.
 The work at the further end is well along, the carpenters, who are shing- ling and clapboarding the building, have that work advanced almost to completion. There will be no let-up in the work because of the help from the recent rain. but it will be hurried as fast as possible, and it is believed all will be completed by the end of the week so that if the pumping is not started then it can be by the first of the week.
 Meeting of Board.
 There was a meeting of the board of water commissioners on Tuesday afternoon when the situation was fully discussed and the conditions reviewed. There was no new action taken. The board feels that the work is progress ing satisfactorily.

FUN ERAL-.
James Momtt.

The funeral of James Moff1tt was held at 3 o'clock Tuesday afternoon at his home, on East Town street. Rev. P C. Wright of the Central Baptist church conducted the exercises. He spoke of the services the one whom they had come to honor had rendered to his country and to his friends, and prayed that the memory of these might abide. In this earthly life, he said we may walk with Christ and thus win the victory over sin and care and sor- row. and the last enemy over which we shall gain the victory is death-and then the entrance through the gates that shall never more be shut to our heavenly home.
 He then committed the services to the G. A. R. MT Hovey said: As one or the memory of our comrades One the struggles of this earthly life and let us so conquer here that we may l leave the heritage of a noble life to the young men who are to come after and bo the defenders of our flag, In behalf of the Sedgwick post and the commonwealth, Commander Hovey paid the last tribute to his comrade MT. Moffitt, by placing the flag which
 he had defended on his caslxet. Miss Maud Carew Buckingham sang with tenderness Beautiful Isle of Some where and Abide With Me" Choice 1 flowers showed the love of many friends. Burial will take place in Hen mixer, N. H., to which place the body will be sent by Henry Allen 6 Son to- 1 day Wednesday,.
