NERVES IN THE NAVY.
‘ in consequence of reports having
been made to the admiralty of seamen
in some of his mojssty's ships having
refused to so aloft In'rough weather,
It has been decided to reinstate the
old "mast and sail" system of Instruc-
tion In the harbor training ships.
‘ This system was abolished about
seven years ago. and with it went the
old cruiser squadron, consisting of
fully rigged steamships, In which
youths were sent to sea bcfore being
‘ passed out into the ships in the first
. line. The sailing brlgs Nautilus and
Liberty were also dismantled.
In the Node of this system a new
one was introduced by which boys
were first sent to sea in the ships of
the particular scrvim squadron, con-
sisting of first-class armored crui-
sers. Sail drill, running aloft and such
things were consigned to the limbo of
the past, as having no place in an age
of steam and steel.
The objections of many distin-
guished naval officers were. overruled
as being obsolete. They said that drill
aloft trained the men in confidence and
daring and that its abolition would re-
sult in a falling off in these qualities in
which the British bluejacket has al-
ways been supreme. But the objectors
were ridiculed.
Now the authorities have discovered
that the naval officers were right and
the obsolete"‘mast and sail" drill is to
be reinstated. English seamen have
been trained in barmcks for a good
many years now, but a. fully rigged
mast. is to be erected in the grounds
of the Shelley establishment, to be
followed. it. is believed, by a similar
modification in the training of youths
when they pass out to sea.
HAD HUSBAND ARRESTED.
Mrs. John Beekman Also Talked Back
to Judge Lockwood.
John Beckman and his wife, who are
living at '1 Wall street, Norwalk, had
a little family row last night, and Mrs.
Beekmau had her lolng husband or.
rested. Judge Id. M. Lockwood look-
ed into the details of the case this
morning and told the woman that pos-
sibly her hubby was not all at fault
from what he could gleam.
Bcekman claimed that his wife had
been drinking beer with another wo
man, and he, of course, remonstrated.
Later he said that he brought home
something for supper and she had not
cooked it. A scrap resulted and he
pushed his wife against the wall and
this morning his spouse had a bump
on the side of her face,
Mrs. Bushman tulkcd back to the
court and the. judge told her she was
excited. ‘ Her husband claimed that.
she had been drinking this morning.
She replied that such was the case but
that it was soda water shc bud rs
freshed herself with.
The iudgc sent Beckmun to his work
and told his wife to go home.

campaniss A and 0, Third in-
posed to Change
The officers sndmombors of the
two Norwich militia companies, A and
C, belonging to the Third Regiment of
the Connecticut National Guard, have
lately been called upon to give their
opinion as to wholhcr the entire
Third Regiment shouldmc turnod into
an artillery corps for coast dci‘cuso.
and they have strongly voted against
the project. There are reasons of
sentiment among the men which
make them want to keep their com-
panies as they are now, and those
who have been longest in the service
and put in much hard work in bring-
ing the commands up to their present
state of stilt-lousy. could not fool the
same interest. if the two companies
lost their identity by being transferred
to another branch of the. service.
it is understood that. the company
in New London and the can In llunicl-
son are both opposed to tho proposed
move, but all the other eight coni-
pauies of {he regiment are in favor of
it.
After the recent summer military
mauocllvrcs in which the rcgimcut
participutod, the officers of companion
'Wcrc requested to scnd in recom-
mendations on tho subject. to the
United States governmuul military
authorities. and n poll of tho regiment
by companies shows eight in favor
and four opposed. Without the con-
scat of a company, it is stated, it.
could not be transferred from the in-
fantry to the artillery arm of the
service. but the proper authoritics
have tho power to disbnnd those com-
panies, which might not care to
change.
As the United States govcrmncut Is
anxious to have it an artillery organ-
ization, instead of up infantry regi-
ment. it is stated in Hartford military
circles that there. would not be much
surprise if the change were made. At
the present time there are only two
artillery coast dci’cnsc companies in
the state, and they are located in New
London with Major lialllui A. lluli as
their commandant.
REGARDiNG OUTSIDE HYDRANTS.
,Too Much Water Used for Lawn, Gar-
den and Street Sprinkling.
In this issue the South Norwulk
water commissioners have inserted in
the advertising columns a copy of the
rules and regulations concerning out-
side water hydrants.
During tho past few Works there
have been reported daily at the water
olllcc the natures of many citizens who
are violating this ordinance. The
consumption of water for lawn, gar-
den and street sprinkling has become
so great that it causes variance in
the normal pressure and affects the
high points in the city during certain
hours of the day. While the water
pressure stands at its general average
and the supply In nipple for all de-
mands, it can be misused by a tow
to such a degree as to cause much in
convenience to many others.
The outside. water hydrant is rented
at a nominal charge of $3 per year,
and is a convenience for the exterior
of a place. It is not intended to fur-
nish a neuron of irrigation for it half
hero of lawn or gut-don plot. It is
the flagrant abuse of such privileges
that will necessitate in the near fu-
ture putting meters on all connections,
which is the only just and equitable
way of selling watt-r.
