HAS RAISED S14,o0o
 FOR LESTER 6 WASLEY
Practically Assured that the Concern Will Remain in own-Good Orders Ahead and Work Underway.

The sum of s14OO0 has been raised by PerciVai w. Chapman towards the s25,000 capital with which it is pro- posed to organize a company to take over the business of the Lester &, Was ley plant. There are several others considering taking large blocks of stock, and it is believed that interest sufficient to keep the concern from go ing cut of town has been secured though the desired amount has not yet been obtained.
 Envelope machines which the firm manufactured are being finished up, and there are many orders on the books to be filed at the present time. This firm has been in business here and done well for a good many years, having paid good wages, which has meant a class of skilled mechanics. MT. Chapman, who is managing the business at the present time. believes that it will be possible to perfect the organization of the company very soon, and the indications are that it will not go out of town, as was at first feared it might. Anyone interested in the proposed company can see one cf the machines at the factory in the In- duStrial building.

APPEAL PERFECTED
 IN THE WIENER CASE
Will Now Go to the Supreme Court Request to Leave to File Motion to Re- argue Waterford School Case.

Attorneys Comstock and Barnes on Saturday perfected their appeal to the supreme court of errors in the case of state vs. Weiner, and the bond has been furnished by Attorney Comstock. The appeal was filed on Saturday
 Attorney Comstock on Saturday filed with Clerk George E. Parsons of the superior court a request for leave to file a motion for a re-argument of the case of state attorney ex rel. ComStock vs. school board of Waterford, in which a decision was recently given by the court.
 The request sets forth that the cause was appealed to the supreme court of errors by the relater on the sole question of when statute pre- scribes residence as qualification for the enjoyment of privileges. or the exercise of franchise, the word is equivalent to the place of domicile of the person claiming its benefits.
 At the time the matter was before the superior court a motion to quash was denied and it was held that man damus proceedings were proper A line of authorities in support of the proposition was submitted by the re- later through his senior counsel to the superior court, but the senior counsel was absent on the hearing before the supreme court and the line of authori- ties was unknown to the junior coun- sell
 The relator expects to show by the authorities that he was a member of the school board of the town of Wa terford de jure ct de facto at the time he was illegally removed. The only power possessed by his associates and himself which Is material to this case was the power to fill vacancies. He was performing the duties of his of fee when removed and no vacancy ex- fsts in an office so long as the office is filled with de facto incumbent. The action of the school board was null and void and did not confer upon the appointee the right to hold office. Man damus is the only adequate remedy to restore the relator to office and will issue to effect his restoration even the appointee be in possession de facto. The relator therefore desires leave to file a motion for a re-argument so that he can submit his line of au- thorities, and by so doing he believes the supreme court will reach the con- clusion that he was pursuing his prop CT remedy in the case by a writ of mandamus.

engineer TOT the station and he will not name another until the time for the pumping comes.
 On Saturday the connections with the first pump were practically com pleted, the remaining work being fin ished on Sunday. The electricians have been busy there, getting the switchboard into place and connected up.
 The filling in of the trench is the only work of that kind under way. Contractor Dodd was employed to dig the trench and lay the pipe from the easterly end and began work Decem- Der F with 65 men, which number was increased finally and none turned away. He had to remove rock in West Main street and the Manwarring lot In the second week local men were started on the pipe-Iaying, but there being so few here who are experienced in that work that 1t was necessary to get a few experienced pipe layers and calkers here from the United States government work at Plum Island. In fraction over seven days they had completed the job and were ready to return home. Contractor Dodd's men excavated 4.000 feet and put down 3,700 feet of pipe in the trench, which was 6.700 feet long. The trench is now being filled and the lots that were crossed are being cleaned up the walls and fences restored and in few days everything will be complet- ed. Only a couple of days were lost on account of the Wea ther. Contrac- tor Torrance with his force worked from the west end and also dug the well from which the water will be pumped.

CAPTAIN HENRY PHELPS
 ON STEAMER NEW YORK
Takes Place of Capt. Samuel Crocker on Freiehter-Latter Rounds Out 30 Years.

steamer New York ended his seafar- ing career and the year 1910 simul- taneously. Captain Crocker left the pilot house of the steamer Saturday morning after bringing her through the night, and went ashore for good. He resigned to spend the rest of his days as comfortably as he may be permitted.
 The pilot house of Sound liner. when a man begins to crowd the seventies, is no desirable place on a winters night The captain is re- sponsible for the safe delivery of a great many thousand dollars worth of cargo in the freighter's hold every night and it is realization of this that has led mariners to ask after bad that Cap'n Sam Crocker couldn't come through?'' When the weather was so bad that the captain caused his steamer to lay to and wait for it to clear, it was considered among mariners who know Captain Sam to be pretty bad weather.
 Captain Crocker was asked how his record of making trips compared with the other Sound navigators. He said: Well I guess I've done as well as the most of them, but don't lets talk about that However, from another source. it was learned that Captain Crocker's log showed that the num- Der of times he had missed a trip in the New York, since she went into commission about two and half years ago, could be counted on the digits of one hand
