Everybo dy Is Attending and Prof.
fling BY The Wonderful
Price Reductions.

What is proving to be one OF the
busiest mercantile events ever held
in Bennington is undoubtedly the Bic
Selling Out Sale of The Surprise
Store which is going out of business.
Evidently it is the desire of the pro-
prietor to move away only one or two
cases of goods-or less-when the
store is vacated for the Bargains APP
pear to be the Best that have eye-
been advertised in the vicinity. AZ
the start of the Selling Out Sale the
stock was very large; more than
third of it has already sold out.
The balance of the stock must be
sold out in short time and inorder
to do so in the remaining time. every
article has been remarked at con-
siderable reduction from the previous
sale prices. 4 large portion OF the
stock of Clothing, Shoes, Rubbers,
Millinery, Dress Goods. Underwear.
Sweaters, Gloves. Hosiery, etc. is
now marked at about half the regu-
lar prices. Every Wise Man viii
clothe himself and his family during
the last days of the Big Selling Out
Sale and he will save several dollars
by so doing Every woman who buys
her winter coat and hat and other
garments at the Selling Out Sale Will
save a few dollars on her purchase.
Il is Just like buying good goods
articles you need-at your own
prices and a little deducted from that.
Can you Beat It? viii You Miss II?
As expected the Garment, Shoe and
Millinery departments led in the
amount of business done so far at the
sale, but the other departments were
not far behind Everything is going.
Hundreds and hundreds of packages
left the store in the hands of wise
shoppers who went away happy and
satisfied that they had saved Cor
earned a good days pay Those
who will come for the remaining bar
gains are sure to save still more.

Municipal Paper Works of Denver.

Employment has been given to a
great many transient men and some
women in the new industry Of baling
the waste paper of the city, three car
loads Of which have been recently sold
at a fair price. Paper is collected from
the large stores and from receiving
cam on the street corners, is sorted,
baled and shipped to market at about
the rate of a carload a month. While
not a big financial benefit to the city,
this method Of handling the paper
serves the double purpose of getting
rid of the waste paper without cost
and at the same time furnishing work
to jobless men,. The revenue from this
paper industry now supports the fami-
lies Of the men employed at it and III
addition adds a little to the general
funds of the department.

COMMISSION RULE IN LEEDS
Experiment of Yorkshire Town Is
Watched With Interest.

Leeds is making an experiment in
municipal administration. new to Eng
land. but popular in American and
Canadian cities. under the name Of
commission government.
The innovation followed the recent
strike of municipal employees. the in
vestigation into which revealed a lack
Of coordination in labor matters be-
tween the municipal departments and
also a tendency to regard municipal
employment as political spoil.
The municipal administration of
Leeds will be concentrated in the
hands of a small commission. which
can be held more responsible than is
possible in the ase of a large city
council. If the Yorkshire experiments
prove successful it is suggested that
the London county council might adj
vantageous!y follow suit and ever go
the length of engaging a general man
ager.
\ salary of $4,000, it is urged,
would not be excessive for a good man,
who would undoubtedly be able to

! TILT CITY BEAUTIFUL
SOME SUCCESSFUL
ENGLISH WATERWORKS.
Management of Sheffield Provides Best
Service at Least Cost.

In its management of the Sheffield
waterworks, according to a consular
trade report, the municipality has con
sidered it its duty to provide the best
service at the lowest possible charge.
The system consists Of a series of high
lying reservoirs which supply entirely
by gravitation an extensive area, in
Guiding a wide range of heights.
The gathering grounds are elevations
ranging from 600 to 1,4OO feet, where
the average rainfall is about forty
inches per annum. This water is in
tercepted and impounded in twelve
artificial basins, formed by earthen
entertainments carried across the nat
ural valleys, drain an area Of 2,4OO
acres and have a total capacity of
sins the water is c%oneveyed along q
water course and through trunk mains,
varying in diameter from fifteen to
tWenty-four inches, to service reser-
voirs within the city, some of which
are "high level" to feed the higher
parts Of the district, while others are
"low level" to supply the city proper.
From these twelve reservoirs of an ag
gregate capacity of 100000 gallons
between 100000 and 100000 gal
Ions of water per day-nearly one-half
of which is for trade and manufacture
ing purposes-are distributed through
out the city and district by means of
800 miles of pipes varying from six to
tWenty-fOur inches in diameter.
The exceptional purity and %softness
of the water make it pleasant to drink
and satisfactory for general household
purposes. For manufacturing and en-
cheering purposes it is unrivaled, with
the exception that its very purity and
softness make it attack the inside of
new lead piping. This, however, was
overcome by the following simple treat
ment: In a cement vat chalk and wa
ter are thoroughly mixed by NEAR of
revolving fans, then the milky liquid
discharged into the guide basin, where
it mixes freely with the water supply
for the town. This apparatus is work
ed by a three throw hydraulic ram I'M
der pressure of water from one of the
higher reservoirs at a cost of 2 cents
for every $500 gallons of water treat
ed. Such is the system Of water sup
ply evolved by the corporation in the
twenty-five years that it has been op-
Grating.
In 1883 the municipality took over
the city's water supply and paid $1O,-
122,3SS to a previously operating com
pany. Since the transfer $2,137,935 has
been spent upon additional works and
extensions Of mains. The working eX-
