CONSIDERING PUTTING
 BOATS ON THAMES RIVER.
Capt. Avery c. Smith May Have Two Power Boats if Rocks Are Removed from Shetucket.

The lease of the municipal wharf at the foot of Rose place for year from June 1st las been secured by Avery .. Smith, and it is not improbable that he will have one or more boats on the river this summer. Captain Babbidge, who desired to run a boat on the river and also wanted the wharf, could not be accommodated, as the wharf is linn itei.
 Concerning the placing of a boat or boats oli the river this summer, Cap tain Smith stated that he has been considering it some time. He has re- ceived work from the government off, cials that the rocks under the Laurel Hill bridge in the Shetucket river will be removed this summer, and "as soon as they are removed I'll have the boats here" said Captain Smith in speaking of the possibility of engaging in this business again.
 The time has come when the power boat is much better for such summer business than a small steamer as it can be operated much more econom- icaily It is probable that the boats which Captain Smith would place on the river would be large power boa IS and that two would be run. Plans for carrying out this idea have not been definitely arranged. and it was the opinion of the captain that it would not be advisable to use the municipal wharf until the Instructions are re- moved.

TOOK BAG OF TOOLS
 FROM DIR. cAS5iDYS OFFICE
Owner Had Not Missed Them Until Police Asked if He Had Lost Any thing of the Kind.

Complaint was received on WedneS- day by Chief Murphy that man was begging in offices in Shetucket street. He sent a man to look him up and there was found on him pair of for ceps, several knives, a new necktie and some stamps. He gave his name as John Smith, aged 5S, of Hartford
 It was realized that the forceps be- longed to some doctor and the police were sent on a visit to the doctors offices. At the office of Dr. Patrick Cassidy, although he had not missed them. he found that his bag of tools was gone. The forceps he identified as belonging to him. A search was instituted by the police. and the tools were located where the fellow said he had left them, though it took much pleading on the part of the doctor and finally the third degree to get the goods
 Doctor Cassidy few years ago lost 8 bag of tools valued at about $126, which he never heard from. He knows the man who is under arrest he having taken care of his horse Hap py Doctor at one time. 1He rocls were taken on Tuesday and are worth from $50 to s60. The man had six cents in money on him when taken. Inasmuch as the doctor has taken pains to help him every time he has come to this city, his theft from rne office of the tools was at least ungrateful.

 One Norwich insurance agent relates an incident in connection with the re- cent Lucas building fire. At 3.30 in the morning. when the fire was nak- ing it's most alarming progress, he was brought out of bed by ring at his doorbell When he answered the door there stood one of his customers with a check in his hand to pay the premium on his policy which insured property within the threatened district. The policyholder felt sure that he was going to be wiped out in the spread of the flames and wanved to make sure that his premium was paid before he put in claim. s
 As it turned out the fire did not touch the building or the property in which the policyhoider was interested.

 The resolution presented by the com- mittee recommending 8 tax of ten mills was adopted.
 This completed the business and the council adjourned sine die at S.S5 o'clock.
 In the report of the treasurer's Ac- counts which follows, the amounts to- taling over S26,0O0 for the reserve fund had not been turned over to the re- spective funds by Treasurer Peck but would have been before the close of the year had he lived. It could not be done after his death and remains for the new official to accomplish.

TEST FOR PIPE LINE
 AT BAckUs CORNER.
Reducer Has Been Received and Fol lowing the Tryout of Pipes Ditch Will Be Filled.

Supt J. J. Corkery of the water de- whereby a 20 iEch pipe is connected with a 24 inch pipe. and following the placing of this in position, which will be completed today at the More pllce in West Main street. the testing of the pipe which has been laid in that vf- cinity will be made with the Trading Cove brook water. and everything be- ing found satisfactory the pipes will be covered. To make the test 24 inch plug will be placed on the 24 inch pipe which Contractor DoGd has laid as far as Backus corner and a gate will be put on the 20 inch pipe which the de- par sment has laid cityward a distaDce of 75 feet This will test those lines of pipe as far as laid and if no trouble is found the trenches will no longer have to be kept open.
 The third boatload of pipe, which will contain about all the light 24 inch pipe. is expected here today. The bringing of the pipe by boat makes 1t much handler than by rail. as it woule be impossible to unload it fast enough from cars to escape the demurrage rate. As 1t is. those unloading and carting the pipe are kept hustling. the Huntington dock being 8 particularly fine place for the unloading of the pipe.
 Concerning the shutting off Of Mo- began lake Superintendent Corkery states that it was shut of only for q few nights in the nature of an expert msnt. It has always been on during the day since being started this spring and is at the present time furnishing some water to the system. For a few nig'1ts. to see if it would make any difference with Fairview. the water was shut off at Rockwell street. AL though it cannot be determined how much yet it is certain that water which it being pumped from the Trading Cove brook is going into Fairview dur ing the night in sufficient quantity to keep it at its level of 134 inches down. At Mohegan lake the water is 54 inch es down.
