BOIHERS IF FORT WRIGHT
panies Get Work on the Ten Inch Guns Battery
 Barlow.

Low and poor water is being expert enced at Fishers Island by the mem bers of the Coast Artillery companies who are there for ten days. The SUD- ply Is short and only a stated quanti- ty can be secued each day. The pres ence of the Coast Artillery corps there, with about 70O additional men to SUD- ply, makes a big drain on the reSer- volr, so that for many hours it be- comes necessary to shut it off entirely. The low state of the water affects the quality, and orders have been giv- en for no one to drink it until it has been boiled. This means additional work for the cooks, but the amount obtainable is limited. The company members are adhering strictly to the order There is no sickness, the health af the camp being excellent, and it is believed there will be no trouble if the orders are obeyed in every respect. Members who have been home report the the boss as delighted with their foca- ton and that they are having a fine time. This is their first visit to Fort Wright, but they are well pleased.
 Sunday was a. day when there were many visitors at the camp. The day was quietly spent, there being no work tor the men except guard duty.
 Work on Guns.
 SO readily have the Connecticut coast artillerymen in camp at Fishers Island acquired knowledge of the big guns that Saturday it was decided no further gun drill would be necessary At 1.45 in the afternoon the companies of Maj Vincent M Kings fire cos.l- mand began sub-calibre practice. This will continue today and tomorrow. This week the Connecticut men will have in firing at Stationary and moving targets with full service am- 
 The battery, gun and range section drilling was resumed Saturday morn ing. Capt. Malcolm B. Andruss, the chief regular instructor, considered that the officers and men had mastered the manual sufficiently to warrant sub- calibre practice being taken up.

 The health of the camp continues to be fine and the medical department reports no illness.
 Camp at Niantic Closed.
 Saturday was the last day for Camp Baldwin at Mantle, and many Of the boys were not sorry as they have had week of hard work and have been pretty thoroughly drilled by the U. s. army officers. The soldiers all got away by special trains during the af- ternoon. The tents will be taken down and shipped to the arsenal at Hart ford and the camp cleaned up next week, when Mantle will resume it's usual quiet for the remainder of the year. The work of shipping the camp equipage to Hartford will be under the supervision of Colonel Wise. as sistant quartermaster general.
 If the men of the First infantry thought they would have an easy day in camp Saturday they found out their mistake, for most of them were out on the highways for field work all the morning. They got back on the mus ter field in time to get ham sand wichas and coffee served by the. com pany cooks. No time was allowed for regular mess, as the companies were all embarked on special trains be- tween 1 and 2 o'clock and there was no time to indulge in any elaborate preparations for breaking camp. The baggage squads during the forenoon pa eked up company effects and carted them to the station. The infantry came in from outside work and after getting a bite to eat were ordered out for the last dress parade. The com mands then marched to the station. The cavalry and signal corps men had a short drill and then they, too, made ready to leave.

KILLED BULL PUP. John Donovan Lost Prized Dog, Which Was Struck by Auto.

John Donovan's registered full blooded Boston bull pup passed away a the age of one year. when an auto : mobile struck him in front of his mas ter's house, on North Main street, early Saturday evening. The dog lay on the trolley track and she was brought in to the square on a trolley car, and lat CT taken out to the Greeneville born where burial took place. There was hardly a mark on the dogs body, bus he was unquestiona bly, dead.
 MT. Donovan is somewhat reconciled to the loss of his bull pup, however. by the fact that a hound which he had stolen from him eight months ago has just come back to him. The long lost doggie, which is a valuable one, too proudly displayed two North Stoning- ton tags in his collar. and Mir. Dono- van is planning to make an investiga- tiOn down that way.

Two Horses Run Away.

The horse belonging to Isidore Mich on. attached to a milk wagon became frightened near the Pratte block, on Hunters avenue, at about 9.30 Satur- day morning and ran up the avenue. The wagon turned over, spilling it's contents about the road, and broke from the front wheels, which accom- panied the horse. The animal turned at the top of the hill and came back over its course. turning up Merchants avenue, and was caught near the Taft vile hotel. A colt owned by w. Beau regard, which was standing on Mer- chants avenue. near the Pratte build ing, became frightened by the noise and ran up the hill, where the buggy
 collided with a telegraph pole and the horse was stopped. Both teams were badly demolished and the harnesses were broken. No one was in either

MEETING OF WOMEN'S JRO-
GREssIVE UNION.
Resolutions Passed Endorsing the
Bond Issue to be Passed Upon
at the Election to be Held
March Fl. Basket to be
Put in POstoffice.

The Women's Progressive Uion
held meeting at the Southern
Hotel Monday afternoon. Two new
members were admitted, Mrs. Geo.
G.. McHardy and Mrs. Chas. Sheri-
dan.
1t was decided to put basket in
the postoffice for the reception of
scrap paper, so that the Office and
the street might not be Uttered with
it.
The following resolution was
passed endorsing the election for
school bonds:
Whereas, 1t is of the utmost i'm
portance that Covington should have
an adequate school building, con-
sidered both from an educational
and business standpoint, as we'll
as with view to the health and
comfort of the children; and
Whereas, Under the provisions
hitherto made, it is impossible to car.
ny out the intentions of the taxpayers
| who voted the original bond issue
for the purpose of electing a school,
building; and
Whereas, The election to be held or
the 21st of March, 1911, in no wise
| increases the amount of taxes thai
are now payabl e and collectable;
therefore be it
| Resolved, That, in consideration
of the fact that the present tax, al
though collectable, is not availabl.
in sufficient amount in any one yea
to answer the purpose for which i
was intended, we hereby approve tn,
OBJECT of the election to be held OF
the 21st day of March, 1911, ant
appeal to the property holders O
Covington to vote for said bond
issue.

A SHELL ROAD
HERE TO AB|TA
Police Juror Schultz Working
to This End.
Will be Built if a Sufficient
Sum Can be Raised.
CTYs11
Covington and Abita Will
Probably Appropriate.

Mr. Herman Schultz, police juror
for the third ward, has been working
hard to put the roads of this ward
in good condition, and has accom-
plished as much good as it was pos
sible to accomplish with the funds at
hand, and has the roads in better
condition than they have ever been
before.
There is great need of highway
where fast drives may be enjoyed
by those who own good horses and
automobiles and where in the sum-
mer evenings health drives may be
taken by invalids or families who
wish to enjoy an outing. The most
available road for this purpose Is
the one between Covington and Abita
Sprins.
In order to cary out this project
Mr.. Schultz has been working among
interested parties for donations and
assistance, and it seems probable that
enough money can be raised to shell
this road, if the towns of Covington
and Abita Springs can be induced
to make fair appropriation. There
is no doubt that such a road would
be of great benefit to both Coving-
tonand Abita, as road for traffic
as we'll as a road for pleasure. and
it Is so much to be desired that con-
tributions for this purpose should
come in very freely. We wish Mr..
Schultz success in his undertaking.

SCHOOL IMPROVEMENT WORK.

Only few years ago the educa-
tional world awoke to the fact that
''the child was in their midst" to be
! developed with such an understand
| ing of his nature that he would not
be provoked and discouraged by the
adult methods of looking at things.
Bishop Phillip Brooks has said:
"He who helps child helps human
ity with distinctness, with an i'm
mediateness, which no other help
given to human creatures in any
other stage of their human life can
possibly give again"
When we realize the great impor-
lance of understanding and proper
ly developing this child nature, We
as parents-will hasten to cooper
ate with the teachers in their efforts
to improve school conditions.
School Improvement League work
is yet in it's infancy.
When three years ago, Miss Nor
ris, as State Organizer of Leagues,
began to travel through the parishes
and speak to the people of "cleanli-
ness, comfort and attractiveness,' as
absolute necessities in school life, a
reformatory work in many of our
schools had it's birth. Nay, where
ever q goodworking league is in ope-
ration we fRd conditions improved.
A clean sanitary building with
comfortable seats, neatly DECORATED
walls, attractive and well kept
grounds, is often an object lesson to
careless housekeepers in commun-
ity-and a child fortunate enough
to have such surroundings during
