Sim Fein Recruiting.

Before the rising, recruiting for the
King was almost dead in Ireland
while recruiting for the Kaiser through
the Sim Fem was going on merrily al;
the rate Of a thousand a week By
this time the chief conspirators were
the complete dupes Of German prom
ises. SO we came to the amazing chap
ter-the fiasco Of Sir Roger Easement :
landing in Kerry, the anarchy and
ashes Of the Dublin Commune, the more
I aimless luracy of the motley little
| gatherings n Wexford and Galway.
Even in Dublin the rebels were only
: few thousand, but il is familiar
reflection that the power Of crime, as OF
/ armies. is increased by modern weap-
ems. One political lunatic with ma
chine gun is dangerous while he lasts.
/ Also-and this is a deeper moral re
/ fection. Of which even on this side o!
the Atlantic we know not yet the full
,mport-fear is practically a vanished
influence in Europe. Both good men
and bad. both the wise and the other
wise. both the masses OF law-abidine
citizens and the percentage everywhere
of temperaments naturally extreme o.
anarchical. hold death in more con
tempt than they did. All the values OF
life are changed.

Three Samples Were Analysed Laboratory of the State Board of Health at Mddetown-Report on Sample from Stony Brook and Franklin Street Fountain Received by Superintendent Burnap Monday-General Satisfaction Over Reports on Both Reservoirs

"The supply is apparently entirely safe for drinking purposes" is the substance of the report from the lab Oratory of the state board of health in Middletown on the analysis of the samples of water taken from both Stony Brook and Fairview reservoirs by Superintendent Edwin l.. Burnap.
 Because of the peculiar taste and odor of the city drinking water Supt I3urnap some days ago took samples from Stony Brook and Fairview and sent them to the laboratory in Middle town for analysis. Three days later he received reports on both samples. The substance of the report on the Fairview sample was as follows:
 Fairview This water is low in mineral matter and Is soft. The sam pc submitted shows a lightly notice able color and is slightly turbid. The figures for organic constituents are not high and the chlorine figure is but slightly in excess of the normal for the region. The gelatin count was ruined by organisms of 0 liquefy- ing variety but the number of bacteria on agar at body temperature is only moderately hign and no suspicious organising were found.
 The supply is entirely safe for drinking purposes at the present time.
 The report on the StonybTook res erVoiI water was not satisfactory to Superintendent Burnap as it had been sent in a bottle which had not been thoroughly -sterilized. He took a second sample from Stony Brook and
