 Since the committee of the common council was appointed to investigate and determine how much wood was cut on the reservoir watersheds and how much damage, if any, was done by the wood- cutting opera ions that were carried on, no public report at common council meeting has ever been made by the com i11ittee although their work was finished several months ago. Members of the com mittee, however, have sta ed that be- tween $500 and 3400 trees were cut on the Bog Meadow watershed and from 500 to 500 trees on the Fairview reser- voir watershed, these figures having been reached by count of the s.umps >tha were left 4 large number" of trees were also cut on the Stony Brook watershed. Forestry experts from other cities have been called on to look over the reservoir watersheds and give estimates of the damage done by the wood cutting and a sanitation expert also viewed the sites where the sawmill had been located and the piles of sawdust left win a view to deciding whether this had constituted any menace to the health of the city through the pollution of the water in the reser- voirs.

A substantial beginning of an impor- tant feature of the New Haven system the construction of third line of track between Providence and New London has been made, and it is in evidence be- tween Westerly ana Bradford, where four and en-,enths miles of siding has been completed and between Kingston and Wickford stations. The latter stretch is but seven miles long, but with that from Wes erly to Bradford, ip conjunction with siimlar work to be prosecuted up and down the line a third through track will be afforded Ultimately, according to the present plans, the New Haven system will have four through tracks all the way from Boston to New York.
 The system is already four-tracked for
 quite distance out of Providence on the | Boston side, and also south of Boston for i eight miles. A similar condition exis $ i beyond New Haven and near New York there are six tracks, which is the ulti-
 mate aim of the management.

Feminine Footwear

was never more frivolous than
it is this season. Strap
pumps are the daintiest af-
fairs imaginable, and dozens
of new styles of slippery
shoes are included in our dis
play. Nothing could be prettier
than the suede pumps in the
attractive wren shade, unless
it might possibly be the new
tan leather pump with Baby
French heel and instep strap.
Black pumps in modified Co.
lonial styles, and dark brown
ones with crossed straps and
slender, tapering heels, fit
feminine feet with a glove
like snugness. Brogue oxfords
with an extra stitched strap
around the ball of the foot are
smart for sports wear.
All shoes are lower in price
than they were last season,
which lends them an addi-
tional bit of charm.
