The rainfall Sunday night amounted to IT of an inch. The water at FairvieW la acks a foot and a half of covering the big strainer.
 At Mohegan lake on Monday the water was found to be S4 inches down, showing that that amount has been drawn from there in seven weeks. There is six and half feet of water left there. That lake has derived much gain from the recent rains and there is a good sized brook running In at the. upper end.
 Rebates Are Not Heavy.
 The collection of the water rates has been under way for a month, Cashier Raymond having the assistance of Martin, F. Jensen. There. have been but very few who have kicked on their bills for the past quarter and in all cases an amicable adjustment has been made. Rebates have been made fof the actual time the houses have been without water and up to the present time the total amount of rebates has amounted to but $64. The residents on the high places are the ones who are getting the rebates. and some of those have paid their full bill without ask ing for any rebates Where the big loss on the department for the quarter will come will be on the meter bills where water was ordered stopped.

everything being completed at the pumping station at Trading cove brook a test of the motors and pumps will be made there today for the testing of the efhclency. of the machines to see that they are in proper shape when they are needed. No test of them has as yet been made, but it is believed that they will work all right. A stove has been placed in the pumping station and an engineer is there during the day
 A representative of the Douglass pumps will be here, it is expected, and the machines will be operated under the pressure which will be required to send the water into the local systam, though none will be sent into the mains today. The water will be pumped from the we'll and discharged through the waste pipe, thus going back to the brook from which it wffs taken The pressure will be secured by the control valves in the waste pipe which will be regulated until the right pressure is se- cured,
 There has been no report from the state chemist as yet and no attempt will be made to pump water into the mains until that has been received Ii it is reported that there are outbuild- ings or other contaminating influences on the watershed of the brook which affect the water, the water commits sioners, as they have always intended will see that they are overcome be- fore taking the water. though there is no great hustle for the water at the present time. as the reservoir contin- ues to rise at the least dampening in- fiuence.

at a meeting Of druggists here to-

upon a Doctors prescription.
The ordinance is aimed primarily
at paregoric and at stomach remedies.
according to members of the board of
health who were instrumental in OBJ.
tanning its passage. Caswell Mayo,
one Of the druggists, said he had
made a canvass by mail of several
sanitariums and the replies convinced
him 80 per cent. of the victims OF
drugs formed the habit as q result of
using prescriptions given by physi
clans and only per cent. from using
proprietary medicines.
