! WATER COMPANY PLANS
IMPROVEMENTS SERVICE
Low Pressure Believed Due To Can
ming House Effects Upon Well sup
piIy. Frederick And Other Places
Similarly Affected.

At the meeting of the directors OF
| the Dorchester Water Company last
night steps were undertaken to pre-
! vent next year the shortage OF water
which has occurred since the opening
| and during the present canning sea
! son. 1t is not believed that the
quantity of water used by the Gamer
les is very largely affecting the sit
uation but that the blowers used for
the purpose of drawing water to the
pumps of the canneries is drawing
the water away from the Water COM
pany pumps. This fact was notlceo
by the directors of the Water Com
pany Immediately upon the opening
of the canning season but as 1t VIII
require several weeks in order to
install the necessary machinery to
avoid the situation it was felt that 1t
could not be done in time to correct
the situation this year. -
During nine months of the year
the Company has no difficulty what
ever in maintaining ample pressure
for all purposes and it is now notice
able that at this time there is plen-
ty of pressure on Sundays, the only
difficulty being during the week days.
Despite the fact that the people
have been considerably inconvienc-
ed during the past few weeks the sit
uation has been much better than IN
many places throughout the state;
Salisbury has been terribly handi-
capped by lack of water and by lack
of facilities for furnishing water.
Frederick, on the Western Shore, has
suffered severely as well as Westmin-
ster and almost all Of the towns i'll
Baltimore county.
The Water Company expects TO IN
stall the necessary machinery in
ample time to avoid any shortage
during the next summer.

Centreville, Md, Sept. IA (Spe-
cial-Judge Philemon Blake Hop
per, associate of the Second Judicial
Circuit of Maryland, including Tai
bot, Caroline, Queen Anne's, Kent
and Cecil counties died at o'clock
today at his home on Kidwell ave
nue., this place.
Suffering paralytic stroke Sun
day, Judge Hopper grew weaker each
day. His death came as a shock to
the community, as he was popular as
a lawyer, jurist and citizen. For
many years he was one of the most
brilliant lawyers of the Eastern
Shore, and appeared often before the
Court of Appeals.
Judge Hopper was born in Queen
Anne's county March 25, 1853 He
was a grandson of the late Judge T..
B. Hopper, a circuit court judge and
prominent politician, his father was
the late T. B. Hopper, who was prom
inent politically and in business.
His mother was Henrietta Goldsbor-
ough, daughter of DR.. Robert Colds
tho Eastern Shore.
Judge Hopper received his early
education at the Centreville Acad-
envy had entered st. Johns College,
Annapolis in 1868. In March, 1871,
he entered Western Maryland Col
lege and was graduated in 1874. He
began the study of law at Centre
vile and was admitted to practice in
1878, continuing until 1888, when
he was elected States Attorney. He
served three terms of four years
EACH
While serving the last term, in
1894, Judge Hopper was requested
to become a candidate for Congress
from the First Congressional dis
trict, but declined. In 1897 he was
candidate for the chief judgeship
of the Second Judicial Circuit. At
that time the late Judge Edwin H.
Brown was selected. At the expira
ton of his term as States Attorney,
Judge Hopper resumed his practice
of law and at the death of Judge
Brown, in 1906, was appointed to
the judgeship. He was elected to fill
the vacancy in 1907.
In 1899 and 1900 Judge Hopper
was master of the Centreville Lodge
Of Masons and was past grand
chancellor of the Grand Lodge of
Maryland, Knights of Pythias. He is
survived by a widow, who was Miss
