SEWER PROBLEMS
ARE DISCUSSED
BOARD PUBLIC WORKS RECON-
MENDs SPECIAL WATER
RATES FOR OUTSIDE
CONSUMERS.

\ special rate Of thirty cents per
hundred cubic feet and a mdnimum of
nine dollars per annum TO residents OF
the Quincy hillside outside Of the city
limits will he recommended to the
council at it's next meeting by the
board Of public works. which met yes
terday afternoon to discuss water and
sewer matters. This acticn was de-
cided upon in pursuance of plan pro >
posed by city Manager w. w. Stockly
as a means of disposlng Of puzzlins
proposition which confronts the city
relative TO sewering the hillside sec
tion. There are number of dwellings
that would benefit by the construction
of the sewers which are not taxable
in the city as they are in Quincy
township Just outside OF the city linn
It's. II is proposed by Manager Stock
ly To take the additional revenue de
rived from the Increased water rate to
these residents and apply the diff
ference to the fund for constructing
the sewers.
Mr.. Stocllly reported that great
zeal OF water is DclnE wasted ll the
liush tanks of the sewers. which he
thinks is entirely unnecessary asd II
was decided TO make an investigation
with a view u eliminating this waste.
Mr.. Stocl1ly reported that the re
pairs to the old Smith-Vail pump had
been completed and would he adequate
10 supply the city with water during
the time that the repairs 10 the biz
pump are being made. if the users ex-
ercise due care and economy in the
use Of water.
II. H. Brock appeared before the
board and recommended that sewer
be built through Dunstan street Cor
merly West street, in East Hancock
TO care for the overflow from the hill
side reservoir and the mater from the
Quincy mine that flows down the hill
side. frequently doing considerable
damage in the vicinity Of the Scott Ho-
tel and the Finnish Lutheran church.
The board will recommend to the coun-
ell that action be taken in the matter
referred to.

of a department. and showed his
| goodwill towards him in every way.
/ Signor Castalotte was a bachelor.
and l believe that he felt as II Cen
naro was his son, and both my hus-
band and l loved him as If he were
! our father. We had taken and fur
nished a little house in Brooklyn,
and our whole future seemed assured.
when that black cloud appeared which
was soon 70 overspread our sky.
"One night, when Gennaro returned
from his work. he brought a fellow.
countryman back with him. His name
was Corgiano, and he had come also
from Posilippo. He was a huge man.
as you can testify, for you have looked
upon his corpse Not only was hia
body that Of giant, but everything
about him was grotesque, gigantic and
terrifying. His voice was like thun-
der in our little house. There was
scarce room for tho whirl OF his great
arms as he talked. His thoughts, his
emotions, his passions, all were ex-
aggerated and monstrous. He talked,
or rather roared, with such energy
that others could but sit and listen,
cowed with the mighty stream OF
words. His eyes blazed at you and
held you at his mercy. He was a ter
rible and wonderful man. l thank
God that he is dead!
"He came again and again. Yet
was aware that Gennaro was no more
happy than | was in his presence. Ny
poor husband would sit pale and list
less, listening TO the endless rawlings
upon politics and upon social ques-
tions which made up our visitors con-
versation. Gennaro said nothing, but
| who knew him so well could read
in his face some emotion which ! had
never seen there before. AT first ]
thought that il was dislike. And then,
gradually, / understood that IL was
more than dislike. 1t was fear-a
deep. secret, shrinking fear That
night-the night that / read his terror

all that he held dear 20 hold nothing
from ME. and to tell me why this huge
man overshadowed him so.
"He told me. and my own heart
grew cold as ice as listened. My poor
Gennaro, in his wild and fiery days,
when all the world seemed against
him and his mind was driven half mad
by the injustices Of life. had joined a
Neapolitan society, the Red Circle,
which was allied to the old Carbonari.
The oaths and secrets OF this brother
hood were frightful; but once within
its rule no escape was possible. When
we had fed to America Gennaro
thought that he had cast Il all off for
ever. What was his horror one eve
ming to meet in the streets the very
man who had initiated him in Naples.

earned the name of Death IN the
South of Italy, for he was red to the
elbow in murderl lie had come to

with offices i'm Hancock, met last
evening and called meeting Of the
policy holders Of the company to be
held on Friday. June 2S. TO vote on the

ness Of the Finnish Mutual. The mat
ter was presented recently through &.
j.. Otis, the local representative Of the
Preferred Life, and the president and
actuary of the company came here a
week or so ago to look into the prop
osition.
The meeting of Finnish Mutual pol
icy holders on June 2S viii go into the
question of transferring all the present
risks or rcinsuring in the Preferred
Life. II was stated this morning by
one of the officers of the Finnish Mu-
tual that the proposition looks like a
good one and there is little question Of
its acceptance by the policy holders
'rhe Finnish Mutual was organized
about ten years ago with j. II. Jesberg
as president and has had its Offices in
the kauth block. II has had a large
list of policy holders, on n mutual ba-
sis and has been very successful. 1t
has been thought that a stock concern
would be better and enable it to great
ly expand it's business and the subject
has been discussed on numerous occa-
sions by the directors, but no action
was taken owing to numerous diff
culties that stood in the way.

There Is all the difference in inc

Not only are his little clothes care
fully finished. but they often have

In this class.

FALSE HAIR REQUIRES CARE
Mistake to Neglect This Ornamental
ton Which just Now Is Consid-
cred Indispensable.

False hair, az we'll the real. needs
care. The psyche switch. and trans
formation, should be brushed as care
fully as the real hair and as often. ne
best way to do il is to place tower
on the lap or table and spreading the
"p;cce" on II. brush with rubber
backed brist!e brush. first one side
and then the other. This removes all
rangles and does not tear the hair
as does comb. Without natural oils
bought" hair soon grows lusterless.
1t should be brushed frequently with
hrillian,ne. Put few drops in the
palm OF the hand, then rub the brush
over il. BE sure to get a br!lliantlne
that Is not greasy. There are several
makes that give luster, yet do not
leave the hair sticky. Also hair can
be washed in thick soapsuds made
from pure white soap. Only the lather
should he used. and then rinse in sew
eral waters. Dry between chamois
cloths or press almost dry In the
hands. Then hang in current Of air,
and when dry shake and brush until
fluffy. Occasional washing with gaso'
line is considered good for false hair.
Do not use ammonia or borax on false
hair, as this will discolor it.
