Water Superintendent Chimney Took In
voluntary Bath in Ice Cold Water.

! Water Superintendent j. j. Chimney ex-
peTenced the unpleasant sensation yes
terday afternoon, while working at Ber-
lin pond reservoir, of being thrown into
the ice cold water and to-day is con-
graduating himself upon not having suf-
| fered any i'll effects from the untimely
bath. He was standing on the dam of
the reservoir and jumped into boat in
order to perform some necessary duty.
He landed on the edge OF the boat which
turned over with him, throwing him
into the water almost up TO his neck. He
managed to climb out although handi-
capped with a heavy overcoat and he
drove home in team with the wet gar
ments clinging 10 him. Superintendent
Chimney is convinced that the unpleas-
ant taste TO the water over which much
complaint has been made for the past
month has been eliminated and that the
water will be more agreeable 10 drink
the rest of the winter.
Expressing regret at the action which
they felt must be taken in accordance
with the wishes OF their rector, the yes
trymen OF Christ Episcopal church at a
meeting held last evening voted to ac-
cept the resignation of Rev Homer A. |
Flint, who rendered his resignation sun |
day, to take effect Dec. 81. in order that |
he might accept a call from the Grafton,
Penn, church. Acceptance of the resig /
nation was the only business transacted |
at the meeting and no definite steps were
taken toward filling the pulpit 10 be
