 Meriden

Meriden.

The gas will be sent iron here by high pressure lines to the holders at the Middletown plaut from where it will be distributed by the present low pressure system in the community.
 It was further stated that agents of the Connecticut Light X Power days to canvass Cromwell to learn how many residents there will con- tract for the use of gas and that if a sufficient number is secured the gas line will be extended to Crom- well.
 The work on the new line from Meriden to Middletown will be start ed at once by the United Gas Im- provement Contracting company of Philadelphia and will go from the local plant down South Colony street to Hall avenue, over Broad street to Berlin from where it will run through East Berlin to Washington street in Middletown.

INTENDING WORK
BUSHES WOMEN
]. AT PEN HERE
Five Female Inmates of State
(: Prison Do Needlework and
Patching For Men

t. Life at the state prison here is
fever "just one sweet song" but
curiously enough it has been made
i trifle easier for the male prisoners
by the fact that the number Of women
prisoners now Is larger tnan II mas
Been for years.
The reason is that the women in.
mates have taken over the work re-
during skill with needle and are
doing the darning, patching and
hending for the men.
For a long time the proper care Of
the clothers of the men inmates has
presented a problem to the prison
management. Few Of the men did
rood work with the needle and the
number who wanted that sc-t ~ !"
lob was even smaller. The lone
woman inmate was kept busy uut
She couldn't stem the rising tide OF
Intending and patching which $50 men
rolled up.
Now the number of women inmates
mas risen to five and one of the
warden's problems has been solved,
temporarily at least. In fact there
isn't enough work to keep them all
busy and occasionally they resort to
fancy work.
: Since the number of women at the
state prison has always been small
3ittle proviion has been made for
them and the women's ward is over
crowded. Since there are cells for
only four women the management
has had to place two women in one
rcll until the number is reduced or
other provision can be made.
Only once before in the history
Df the prison has it had five women
inmates at one time and that number
has never been exceeded.

: Changes Cause Delay
In White House Work

T. Washington - @ - Repairing the
White House has turned out to be
pretty much like repairing almost any
house.
Minor contingencies which could
not be forseen when the specifica-
tions and estimates were made have
DELAYED completion of the recon-
struction of the third floor and roof,
begun last March, and have added
about $4,000 to the cost of the work.
Nevertheless, the heavy construc-
ton is expected to be finished early
i'm August, with only the painters
remaining on the job. They are
mot being hurried, since indications
are that President Coolidge will not
return to Washington before Sep
TENDER.
Original plans called for all work
men to be out Of the White House
by July 16. The specifications
worked out by Army Engineers for
the work, however, were necessari-
.ly based to large extent on as
sumptions. Details of the wooden
.trussing which supported the thirt
floor and Of the roof construction
could not be examined until much
of the ancient material had beer
removed. This could not be started
until the Executive family moved
out. When it did become possible
many surprises were encountered b!
/. the engineers and their plans had tt
be altered at many points.
Furthermore, since the object o
remodeling the third floor was t
make it as pleasant and habitabl
as possible, many details of arrange
ment and construction could be deter
mined finally only on the basis o
aesthetic considerations as the wor
proceeded, with frequent mino
charges involving delay and addition
al expense.

Bo0tleggers Given
Liberties at Jail

Benton, Md, Aug. 12-R-Because
10 convicted bootleggers lodged in
Jail here "aren't like other Grimm
ais" Sheriff William H. Jackson says
he permits them to fish in the Chop
tank river close by, loiter through
long afternoons on its bank, and play
baseball in the Jail yard, an I'M
walled plot behind the lookup. The
sheriff said he also has taken ''sev-
eral Of the boys" for ride at night
SO they could get some air.
II believe in treating the boys
fair, and in return they do not cause
me q bit of trouble" he said. "They
are locked in their cells at night, and
then I let them out in the Jail yard.
TIL boys can fish in the river if they
feel like it, or sometimes they play
pinochle or baseball, just as they feel
like doing. None Of them ever made
an attempt to escape"
They may not, however. sit on the
front porch Of the building, which
also is the sheriff's residence, for:
"Once the boys sat up on the front
porch Of the Jail, but they threw so
many cigarette stumps about that
my wife made them stay in the back
yard. Then they went upon the
porch of a neighbor, but stopped
that and told them they must stay
around the Jail yard"
When informed of the situation,
United States District Attorney
Woodcock said he would investigate
and prosecute those responsible If
it is found that the prisoners are
granted "illegal liberties"

Knoxville, Tenn, Aug. 12.-Six
years before the opening Of the Civil

Deadrick. son Of the chief justice

to go through with the marriage
that she and Deadrick planned.
But the young people Of today
didn't invent the practice of defying
parental wishes. According, Mary
Adeline crept out Of the house one
night and eloped with the young
man, despite her "a years. And her
parents forgave her aftcrward.
May you children have many years
of happy married life they said.
The wish has been fulfilled as few
