STAFFORD SPRINGS.
Interruptions in Electric Service.

Interruptions m Electr1c OeEV1Ceo i The electric service as supplied by
 the local company was interrupted on
 Thursday of last week, due to the
 transmission line being damaged just
 below the generating station at Staf-
 ford. In removing rocks from the
 roadway on the road being built from
 Stafford to Wilmington, the heavy
 blasts of dynamite used for this pur-
 pose blew rocks and also timbers used
 for protection against the poles and wires of the electric company, break | ing the line, and thus interrupting
 the service in Rockville, Stafford and Willimantic. Manager Lewis and Superintendent Loree state this is ths ltiird time the transmission line has
 been damaged this ways and the
 seventh time similar blasts have dam
 aged property of the company. The J matter has been brought to the atten-
 tion of the state highway commissions
 CT several times, but the trouble has
 not been remedied. It is possible the
 electric company may ask that an in 1 junction be served, stopping the road work until assurances can be given
 that repetition of the above will not occur
 Saturday afternoon service was in- terrupted by the severe electric storm,
 and the electric light people state, if
 indications in their generating staE tions of the discharges of lightning in these stations is taken into considera- tion, the storm was as severe as any we have had in the last few years, if not the most severe. The actual amount of damage done to their lines was not so much as were the numer-8 ous small troubles they had. At Rockville station one of the large line insnlators was broken and one of the transformers partly burned; also the lightning arresters grounded. At Stafford some of the switch board ap-. paratus was slightly damaged; the line between Rockville and Stafford was grounded At EagleviIle and Mansfield several transformers were put out of service. In WillimanticI station the lightning arresters were also grounded, and there was some slight trouble on the line from Willi-| mantle to the station of the UncasI Power company. Superintendent Loree stated it was necessary for him to have the forces at the three placee on duty all Saturday night and Sum day, and he was on duty this time all so, being in personal charge of tl.eI work. In clearing the lines of thei numerous grounds this accounted for the interruptions in service duringa the day time of Sunday and the cause of low voltage between and q o'clock in the evening Sunday.

 The general assembly adjourned last week. Favorable action was taken on the two trolley bills in which there is local interest. The new act relative to the trolley extension between here and Staffordville provides that the time for constructing the road be ex- tended to Dec. l, 1914, and if the public utilities commission shall find that 25 per cent. of the road is built by that time then the time shall be further extended until the rising of the general assembly at it's January session, 1915. Irrespective of this right, the company is authorized to construct from it's present terminal in the Springs to Stafford Hollow. The appropriation of $25OO for the John- son hospital is 8 matter that is very popular locally. The legislature re- appointesf Wm. H. Heald judge and M. D. O'Connell deputy judge of the local court.

The work was de- signed and executed by the R. Geissler Go. of New York, the we'll known ecclesiastical decorators and furnish CTS, and is one of the finest pieces in this section of the state. The reredos was designed especially to harmonize with the altar given in memory of Miss Ella Baker. The sermon was preached by Rev. Frederick D. Buck ley, rector of Trinity church, Water bury, who was rector here from 1887 to 1889. The prayers of conservation were read by the rector, after which solemn Te Deum was sung by the choir. Mr. Buckley was greeted at the close of the service by many of his friends and former parishiOness.

Through the administration last
week a long step was taken in the
extension Of the pure food and
drugs act, probably, one of the
most important that has been
made since the enactment of the
law. By a ruling made by those
who have charge of the enforce
ment of this statute, meat and
meat products in interstate or for
eign commerce which have hither-
to been exempt from the provis-

this ruling, the government has

WILSON LEvEE GIVES WAY
Paducah Chronicles Rapid Fall
Which Should Reach Cairo
Within Next SO Hours.

There has been an inappreciable
fall in the river during the past
twenty-four hours, the stage Of the
river being ma ntained by the ex-
cessive rains over an extensive area.
The river at Paducah fell four.
tenths of a foot between 7:00 a. m.
and AGO p. m. yesterday, total fall
of nine.tenths since its highest
stage of 54.3.
This fall at Paducah is but the
forerunner Of a more rapid fall here
within the next So hours, provided
the ra ms over the valleys do net
counteraet the tendency to recession.
Reports from below are that the
Reelfoot levees are liable to give
way before morning.
The levee at Wilson, Ark, so
miles above Memphis, broke at 5:4S
yesterday evening, adding to the
food in the st. Francis basin.
Extreme care and watchfullness
must be faithfully observed until
the danger period has passed and
Cairo once more can breathe eas,er.
Several days yet before the Illi-
nois Central can operate its trains
in and out of Cairo.
Calls of Patrol Committee are not
responded to with alacrity and there
has been negligence on the part OF
several assigned to this branch OF
the city.

contrary to all of the facts. AS a

against this pIaetice and asked for
a correction Of The libel and his per.
