WATER DEPARTMENT
 TURNED OVER S37, 300
Amount Was Under the Estimate Be- cause of Decreased Receipts and in- creased Expenses-Estimate for Next Year.

At the meeting of the board of wa ter commissioners in preparation for the May meeting of the court of com mon council, the reports of the car- riers, superintendent, cashier and in spector were presented and approved and will be presented to the council Monday night.
 The department turned over to the city treasurer the sum of $37,500 the past year, which was slightly under the estimated amount, which was $41,- GOO. The estimated receipts for the year were $6S,000, but amounted to but S67000. The estimated expenses were S27,000 and amounted to $29,00O. The difference in the estimated amounts and the actual ones was because Of decrease in receipts because of curtailment in the use of water, and an increase in expenses because of the severe winter. The rainfall for the year was 40.34 inches, or a trihe un- der the average.
 As a guide for the common council in making up the budget estimates for the coming year as made up will show that it is expected that the re- ceipts for the coming year will reach SIO,00O, while it is figured the expenses will be about $26,O00, leaving $44.OOO to be turned over to the city treasurer.
 During the coming year the only two big jobs projected are the exten- sion to the sanatorium, which is al- ready under way. and 800 feet of pipe laid, and the eXtenstion to the Ther- mos factory and the better service for residents at Sunnyside. The latter job will mean the laying of the six inch main in Laurel Hill avenue, distance of 1.J00 feet or more from the end of the present main. The dead end will also be done away with in Mowry avenue by an extension to Smith avenue. and there will also be a short extension from Twelfth and North Main streets to Central ave- nue.
 Both Fairview and Meadow brook are full but out at Stony brook no water is bonded The 24-inch pipe is carrying it all away at the present | time.
 The sum of $4.OOO was voted to Contractor Petrossi, who has now about 100 men at work at Stony brook. Work is under way on the gatehouse spillway of the smaller dam and also 1 cleaning and filling the basin. Good progress is being made and will con- tinue, though it will probably require | the summer to complete the job. On | the north side of the reservoir a road is being constructed so that the de- l partment can get to the gatehouse. | The road will run from near the 1 Palmer house to the smaller dam.

NORWICH COULD GET MOST
 ANYTHING BUT WATER
It Was as Scarce in 1856 as It Was in
 the Winter of 1910.

The need of a reservoir to supply the city with plenty of water was felt in Norwich previous to the fall and win ter of 1910. Way back in the sum- mer of 1856 Norwich went dry and most anything could be gotten easier than water.
 The Norwich Aurora of July 16, 1856, a copy of which was found by Mrs. Henry Gardner this week, has the following to say about it:
 .Water.-NOrWich suering for the want of water. We have rum enough, brandy enough, but we have no water Our springs are either dried up, or the pipes leak, or something is the matter at all events we can get anything easier than we can get water, This privation is annual with us, and ex- tends through the last two summer months. As the population Of the city increases this evil is getting worse and worse. It ought to be remedied and can be very easily. There Is a river of pure water running down on each side of our city There, is a hill in, the very heart of our city higher than our tallest steeple tops, A res erVOir could be Cheaply built on the hill. into which water could be easily forced from the rivers and we could be supplied at all seasons. Another thing is favorable All our streets have two lines of gaspipes. where we need only one. Most of these pipes are large enough for water and could be cleansed and used for it's convey anCes. The war over these gaspipes has been a serious one, and now, by taking one line of them for water we should act in the spirit of the com mandment that says we should beat our swords into plowshares and our spears into pruning hooks.' Will not our people think of these things and have something done?'
