Richard F.. Hall.

Richard Fitch Hall, whose death
occurred Suntty evening at the home
of his niece, Mrs. Daniel M. Lester of
Warren street, was a native of Troy,
n. Y. He was of one of the oldest and

of Governor Fitch, the last colonial
governor of Connecticut, and his ia
Their was judge in the superior court.
All his life was spent in his native

influential citizen and held many i'm
portant offices. He was president of

well as his four brothers, was a grad
uate of Harvard. His Oldest br<her

The seventh annual report of the gas

story-shows that the year has been
a very profitable one. The net profit
for the year was $32,36S61 after charg-

plant (Which sum is 5 per cent. Of the
citys investment of July 81. 1s10). 1t
thus appears that the income for the
year exceeds the cost of manufacture
and distribution by s46,S70.06.
There are now 246 arc lights used
by the city and 312 J, ineandeseents,
burning all night For lighting streets
and public buildings the cost was $2o,-
3S1.40. the cost for each arc light be-
ing s65.97, and for each i1candeseent
$1116. Many of the regular IS C. ..
incan6esGent lamps have been replaced
by so c. p. tungstens in streets that are
used most This, with the fact that
these lights have burned more hours
than last year, accounts for the in
creased cost.
