The street light committee, with the advice and consent of the court of common council has entered into three years contract with the New London Gas and Electric Light com pany for lighting the streets Of the city. Under the new contract there is a reduction in the cost of arc lights and this reduction makes 1t possible to increase the number of lights and also to introduce a new and modern lamp of much greater power and all within the customary appropriation. Under the new plan of lighting State street will be a modern white way" and the lighting of Bank street to Ocean beach will be greatly improved while the new lamps will replace the old arc lights in Ocean avenue. This means a continuous white way" to the beach, either by way of ATontauk or Ocean avenues, a change that will be ap- preciated in the good old summer time even more than during the chilling blasts of winter
 This change in the lighting system will be made just as quickly as possi- ble and will be in keeping with the progressive spirit that prevails in New London. This arrangement has been made by the committee with General Manager Campbell and is satisfying to the general public, with a few ex- captions, for like the poor, we have them always with us. Mir. Campbell leaves next week for his new position in Waterbury but will still maintain interest in the plant in New London. He has taken unusually active interest in the advancement of New London during his residence here and has as- sured his friends that his interest in the welfare of the city will not di- minish. Under his management the people of New London have no justi- fication for dissatisfaction with the service rendered.

The matter of building that long
 talked of Jefferson avenue trolley loop was revived at the regular meeting of the court of common council and Mayor Mahan with the committee on street railway was instructed to take the matter up with the Connecticut company with a view to having the loop added to the city system. Some years ago arrangements were made for the construction of the line and the rails and ties were laid along the pro- posed route and arrangements made for the construction when suddenly the whole project came to a standstill and finally the rails and ties were gathered together and carried away. At that time the claim was made that some owners of property along the proposed route. and property that would be benefited by the extension of the sys- tenn, would not absolve the city from damages by reason of change in grade

The suggestion of the pastor of a local church that it would he well for members of his church to give up the reading of novels and other light lit erature and read the lives of saints during the Lenten season, gave rise to a query in regard to books upon the subject available at the public library.
 There are in the Bronson library dozens of books on the subject cover ing the lives of many of the saints Waterbury Republican.

of the streets and in some instances that demand was made thai some building lots along the line be filled in at the expense of the city and made more salable. As satisfactory arrange ments could not be made with the property owners the project was abandoned, and it was supposed to have been given repose among the dead issues.
 Whether the new plan contemplates the original route with a change in the demands of the abutting owners is not made public, but it is presumed that such is the case. as some of the parties in interest are back of this revival of the issue. The rails were manufactured to fit the curves on this particular route and probably could not be used elsewhere and are there fore perhaps still in the storage of the Connecticut company. It is believed by the people, and by the trolley com pany, too, that the Jefferson avenue loop would be a paying proposition. Therefore, with former obstacles re- moved it is believed that the Connecti- cut company can be induced to make the extension and without much urging on the part of the mayor and his com ] mittee.
 Alderman James F. o'Leary, father of the measure that resulted in giving to the city a sealer of weights and measures, one of the active kind and i fully equipped to do business and was i performing the duty to the satisfac- | tion of the people, naturally is just a trifie indignant at the official being 1 legislated out of office by the state legislature without proper provision | being made for the recomDense of the county sealer who was to do the work of the local officer. Hence no sealer | of weight and measures as the popu ! lation of the city is less than 25,000. l The matter of the appointment of a i sealer of weights and measures under ] the existing conditions was referred to
 Corporation Counsel Brennan for an I opinion. At the meeting of the court of common council MT. Brennan re- ported that the act of the legislature
 abolished the office in New London.
 Alderman O'Leary declared that the opinion did not seem reasonable from
 a layman's standpoint, and as acseS are taken from one court to another
 on appeal, he believed in taking tEis
 matter to the attorney general of the state for interpretation and final tle-
 cision. There are many, including
 some of the aldermen who believe like
 Alderman OLeary on this matter, but 1 Mayor Mahan declared that the opinion of the court of common council even
 was not superior in matters of law tC
 that of the corporation counsel and that 1t was not necessary to ask for a
 decision from the attorney general of

When the city took over the werk of collecting the garbage under the di- rectlon of the street department 1t was given out that the work was not taken from the contractor for the purpose of saving money, but rather for the pur- pose of giving better service, therefore Alderman O'Leary was justified in claiming realization of that promise at a meeting of the council a month ago, when he suggested that the collectors not only take the receptacles from the yard as did the contractor but that the receptacles be returned to the yards after being emptied and not left on the sidewalks. As this has not been done, the alderman brought up the matter again for action at the council meeting the present week. He told of the conditions that existed and suggested the improvement that could readily be accomplished and at no ad- ditional expense but much more ac- ceptable to the people.
 Mayor Mahan suggested that the al- derman file his complaint with the highway commissioner who would give it proper consideration. The alderman declared that he had no complaint but was acting for what he considered to be for the public good and for the bettering of the general condition of the city and along the lines suggested by the Municipal Art society, whose object was the beautification of the city. So this matter was dropped with out action by the council, but perhaps the highway commissioner may see it to have the changes made as suggested by the alderman.

the state. So the matter was dropped, temporarily, at least Alderman O'Leary accepted the decision of the mayor with grace, but is still of the opinion that the legislature never in- tended to deprive the city of New l4o;l- don of the services of q seaser or weights and measures.

Country Life Should Be Attractive

Several speakers at the annual
conference Of the Illinois Federation
for Country Life Progress told of
good results from efforts to improve
social life in certain counties of H.
linois. Churches and public schools
form natural centers for such work;
oranges and county organizations
also are made use of, to the end of
making conditions more pleasant for
both adults and young people. Tea
parties and athletic games, musical
entertainments and moving picture
shows were features described with
approval.
This work should be extended as
much as possible. Much Of the UNI
attractiveness of country life, to
many persons, lies in it's lack of OPP
portunities for recreation and social
intercourse. All work and no play
makes dull boy of Jack and dis
contented girl of Jill, in either city
or country, and it is certain that the
recreative features of city life have
been strong magnet in attracting
young folks from the farms. There
are opportunities for the develop
ment of healthful, innocent and val
liable amusements in the country.
Wise parents and social leaders will
find and take advantage of them.
Wholesome life comes from a judic-
ious mingling of toll and recreation,
and all of us need to come OCCASION
ally into conract with our fellow be-
ings for other purposes than bust
ness. Record Herald.

er has his house on wheels and expects
to reside therein until the last apple
orchard this fall is wrapped in paper
and stored for shipment. The season
is long. The strawberry starts the
work, the other berries follow suit,
the apricots, the peach, the cherry,
then the early apple and then later
and on during the season many an old
dyspeptic person gets back his health
as he stores away Idaho ozone in his
breather or the lucious prune in his
digester and shores away in his tent

enough fruit trees were planted within
50 miles OF Caldwell to require 10000
persons constantly at hard work 10
years from now to gather their crop
before freezing weather.
Idaho will soon have recovered her
good old range days if we have two
more springs like the last two. Stock
men are telling now of the magnificent
range this season and the geography
is not nearly SO vast as three years
since, for feed is found everywhere
low down on the foothills. The higher
mountains are simply positively ire
mendous. The wild grass-eating ami
mails are rolling fat while the rodents
of nearly every sort are holing up at

The old Snake river is coming into
its own. For thousand years not a
tree has been allowed to grow along
its banks or in its shoestring bottoms
adjacent. Its fish were hard to catch,
its gold was worse than the small pox
to catch, its rolling under current was
dangerous and its location was so low
no irrigation canal could be taken out
by poor communities and its banks
were no place for pleasure on &C
count of no shade and year after year
it carried uselessly on toward the sea
its immense quantity of water. Today
the copper wire associated with its
slumbering cousin, is bringing the old
river to the front and she is now to
spill much. of her waters through ele-
ctric pumps and contiguous territory,
all along her shores are to be inhabit-
ed by new corners who only hear OF
the Indians of former times.
