FAIHviEW RESERVOIR
 GAINS THREE MORE INCHES.
.Is Now 1sD inehss Bslcw High Water Mark-IAssdew Brook Sill Sending in Large Stream.

Fairview reservoir continues to gain, as it has for some time, and the measurement by Supt. J. J. Corkery on Sunday showed it to be 1S9 inches below high water mark. gain of three inches since Friday. Meadow brook continues to pour Q good sized stream into the pond. there being fifteen inches in the 24 inch pipe.
 At Mohegan lake the water is down S6 inches, and is of fine quality, ac- cording to the analysis of the state chemist. It Is probable that it will be used later by gravity, as soon as ii fills more. The use of this would help the reservoir, and for it's protection the banks of the pond have been thor oughly cleaned. The fact that Trad- ing Cove brook water showed up in the last analysis better than Faorv1eW in the opinion of the superintendent would not warrant the use of the brook water without filters, as 8 brook is liable to contamination at any finlS and has no chance for bonding. Thf state chemists report on the three samples of water follows:
 Mohsoar. Lake.
 This water contains a small amoun1 of mineral water and is soft The figures for organic constituents ars not high. but the chloride is slightly above the normal The numbers o1 bacteria are not high, and no ibjec- tionable forms were found at thi' time. This water shows no evidence of the presence of objectionable con. tamination and is more satisfactory il appearance and. color than the wate from Fairyiew reservoir.
 Trading Cove Brook.
 This water contains a small amour of mineral water and is quite soft The figures for organic constituents are moderate. The numbers of 'bac teria are not so hiGh as they wert when the last sample was taken from this point and sewage organisms wer' not found at this time. These results simply indicate that the contan1ina tion is not continual and that the pre- vious samples were taken when con tamination was reaching the stream Fairvisw Rsssrvair.
 This water contains a small amour of mineral matter and is soft. Tn organic content is moderately figl and the chlorine figure is above tn normal The origin of the latter could not state without bette water is rather highly colored, whfcl is to be expected with the present lov level of the reservoir The number of bacteria are not high and no objec tionable forms were found at thf time. This water. while not very sat tsfactory in appearance, ts probabl safe for drinking purposes at the pres ent time.
 Cartsd Filters to Station. The portions of the filters for tn Trading Cove pumping station hay been carted to the station, and tn l the last analysis better than FairvieN 1 and material will be taken there a soon as they arrive.

THE NEW WORK OF
 E. @. TEWkEs5uRY
Az Secretary of Sunday School Work in China He Has 1s Provinces and
 Manchuria.

Writing from Nankin, China, Mrs. F. G. Tewkesbury, formerly of this city, says:
 Tt may be known to some of you that MT Tewksbury's appointment as secretary for the Sunday school work in China was by the Worlds Sunday School association, which met in Washington, D. C., last May. Part of the money for the work comes from the British section of the association and part from the American. We live in Ranking and MT. Tewksbury has his office in Shanghai, yet his work lies throughout this vast empire of eighteen provinces and Manchuria. You will understand better what this means if you just imagine your Sun day school superintendent travelling north, east, south and west through the United States as far west as the Mississippi and trying to educate twice that number of people in the latest methods of Sunday school work. Mir. Tewksbury can at best visit the i'm portant centers once a year and this means a great expenditure of time, strength and money

CARING FOR THs INSANE.

It is the curren; belief that the Ub.ted Stat,s Is the formost couu- tTy ia the world in its methods ol humane and scientific care for the Insane and mentally defective N. GeCrges Clemencesu, in a recent ar ucle giving his impressions of South America, one ot a series which he is vriung for the New Ycrk Times. shows that as a matter og fact, Ar gentins can give the people of the United States profitable instruction on th,s subject
 Near Buenos Aires there is an iu- slitutiou called the Open Door. which N. Clemeuoeau describes in this ar Cle. IL Is colony for the insane. Thsre l,Z0o insane persons live iu detached cottages, work at the trades ejh and publish a newspaper, have tsnd concerts and horse races. and As a rule behave themselves like tas presumably sane men of other communities.
 Long ago. NJ Clemencesu says, the plal of placing certain patients out ia the country among peasant fsmi- lies was tried. The Open Door treats sn mental patients. of whatever de grrr of madness. with what Is called vsrk performed ia liberty In the confusion oS cerebral phenomena tbe widest freedom Is given to the rtfleI action of conscious or unCon- syaous life. It the patient has learn el trade, he finds at once in the Open Door an outlet for bis ener- gies. for it Is with the labor ot the fanatics that the csrpeateriug, mas onry and other work of the villages is executed.
 Escape. he says. is rarely attempt cd. Indeed. it Is far from easy The patients enjoy good physical health. and their visitors envied them the freedom from competition which they e, loved and their immunity from the cares of the work-s-day world.-Sest- tls P,L

"REcosos"

We are again in the throes of a rolitiCAl campaign.
 On "Wednesday the Tax Payers h d their caucus and nominated sevel CObncilmen and a school clerk. Last night the CjuEens nominated their candidates, and the fight is on. mere Is no issue" this year. and ,he Tax Payers are standing on the record" which has been made by tAe present council
 What is this "recori2'
 Their platform contains the state ment that there is over SAOoo In the t-Jssury at the present time. We m st admit this. But why shouldn't there be? The revenues collected last year were greater than previous years owing to two shings: l. e.. sck taxes on real estate. which the Council paid fifty per cent. Of for Cr0ection. and personal taxes charg- eI on articles that have in the past a,ways been exempt Little or no improvements have been made in the streets and sidewalks of the cty. and they are in worse con 6..iou than they have been tn for years. The little work done was with lumber paid for by the former council They have been lucky There have been very few feezeups and those neceSsitated on- y few hours work with the new thawiag machine purchased by them. One teacher has been dropped in the School. by the school board which was controlled by members of the Citizens party. thus saving about stooo00 which is claimed by the Taxpayers as their work.
 A greater portion oG the year tbe present Council was composed or six members. three of whom were of the Citizens party. and it there is any credit due to the present admin ktrston. they surely should be en- Gf'ed Co their share.
 Every man on the Citizens ticket Is a property holder in town and ar- al well known and honest and may be depended upon, fl elected. to work for the best interests or the people at large.
