The Reasons Why?
“l‘hc turning on and off of the Nor-
walk city water, night and morning,
has played havoc with the defective
No less than a dozen
breaks have occurred recently.—Sen-
tinel.
The stated reason for shutting off‘ the
city water late at night and turning it
on early next morning, is that our dis-
tributing reservoir on top of Prospect
hill may have a chance to gain on the
daily depletion. In other words, con-
sumers will not obey the reasonable
orders not to waste water, but as is well
known, in many cases let it run all
night to flush their sewers or water
their lawns, gardens and grounds.
Shutting off the water at the "Reservoir
effectually stops all this hoggishness,
but it is evident that sufficient care has
not been exercised at all times in let-
ting the water on again. In many in-
stances the sudden opening of the
gates and filling the mains with a full
head of water has caused such an air
“pressure as to rupture several of our
old and corroded sheet iron mains.
It is not a theory but a condition that
confronts us. Again “there is h’air in
the pipes. ”
It may be, however, that the numer-
ous ruptures of our mains are not an
unmixed evils. It’s an ill wind that
blows nobody good. All these breaks
require repairing and some one gets
the work who otherwise might be un-
employed. “And a great country it is
too.”

New Yachting Enthusiasm.
The ph'enomenal and highly delighting
VlCtOI‘y of. the American yacht Vigilant
in her special race Saturday with the
Prince of Wales’ royal yacht Brittania
seems to have given a new zest and
awakened renewed interest and enthu-
siasm in the cruise of the New York
squadron which races to—day from Glen
Cove to Green’s Ledge, at the souther-
ly end of the Sheffield Reef buoy be-
low Norwalk Island Light. The yachts
were expected to make this a Specially
interesting occasion commemorative of
its half century of existence, and the
carnival of sailing craft, wind and
weather favoring, seen from our Nor.
walk harbor and shores, will be an
event to live long in the memories of
all beholders. This is due, say“s the
Herald, to its being the Cruise of the
club’s semi-centennial year and that it
will open with races for both schooners
and sleeps for valuable cups, commem-
orative of the honored age of the or-
ganization and its strength and influ-
ence in the ranks of healthful Sport.
The courSe to be gone over will be
twenty-six miles, and is so laid out, it
is believed, that whatever the wind, if
it holds steady, there will be the chance
of testing the yachts in conmetitionbn
most points of sailing. The start will
be frOm near Matihicock Point to a
float north of Lloyd’s Point buoy,
thence across the Sound to a float near
Green’s Ledge, Norwalk Islands, and
finish over a line drawn as frOm the
start; or, from the start near Matini-
cock Point, across the Sound to Green’s
Ledge float, thence to the float north
of Lloyd’s Point, and finish over the
starting line.
The yachts were expected to round
the lower Sheffield Reef buoy by or a
little past noon to-day, according to
conditions of wind and weather. This
race over, the yachts to-morrow will
start'on their usual annual races from
port to port. These will be from Glen
Cove to Morris Cove, 37 miles, or Glen
Cove to New London, 74 miles; Morris
Cove to New London, 40 miles; New
London to Newport, 40 miles; Newport
to Vineyard Haven, 37 miles; Vineyard
Haven to New, Redford, 21 miles; New
Bedford to Newport, 27 miles, or Vine-
yard Haven to Newport, 87 miles.

Took A Bath.
On Saturday John Camp and Frank
Beatty boarded John’s canoe, the
“Grover Cleveland” for a paddle about
the shore of Wilson Point Cove. Every-
thing went well until near Bell Island
bridge when Frank mistook the anchor
rope (i another boat for a compromise
amendment to the Wilson bill .and
made agrab for it. As his hand came
in contact With the rope the canoe lurch-
ed and over went Frank, clothes and
all. Released from the weight of Frank
on-the starboard side the canoe careen-
ed to port and John too, went over
among the sad sea waves. They soon
reached the shore and after bailing the
water out made another start, but the
canoe saw the shadow of its name in the
water and made a hop, skip, and jump
and turned its occupants out once more
much to the amusement of a large an-
dience of Bell Island beauties who had
congregated on the shore to watch John
and Frank handle a genuine Indian ca-
noe. The boat was again righted and
the two made haste to the, Knob to dry
- their cloths before going home, an
have since failed to report their adven-
ture to any of their friends.

The Secret Service Men Arr-est
“Russ” Hoyt’s Brother in
Bethel. .
The Prisoner Taken Away
Buggy and Secreted.
The Secret Service officersare still
hunting the gang of counterfeifers sup-
posed to be located in this I’VICllllty.
Nearly every day a new detectlv e looms
up until now there must be at least ten
officers working on the case. .
On Saturday the two Secret tire-rice
men known as James P. \Vllst,i=._1 and
Frank Lang, but who are really James
Scanlon and Frank Squell, weth to
Bethel and arrested Lorenzo Hoyt,
brother of “Russ” Hoyt, the alleged
head of the gang. Lorenzds arrest
was effected at his home in_Bethei and
he left that town in a carriage accom-
panied by Scanlon and Squell. But he
has disappeared as thoroughly and
completely as did Humphrey Otis. alias
Murphy, the man arrested in Bethel
last Friday. ,
Late Saturday night the‘ two Secret
Service officer‘s returned to the Ma
hackemo hotel, at South Norwalk, from
a long drive into the country, but their
prisoner, Lorenzo Hoyt, was not with
them, although he hhd left Bethel in
their company. It was reported at the
hotel, however, that Scanlon and Squell
had brought a trunk back in their car-
riage and that another officer, a new
one in th’eocase‘, was‘engaged on Sun~
day in going over its contents, Scanlon
and Squell having returned to Danbury
on the Saturday night’s train. No one
can be found who has any definite. idea
of the whereabouts of either Otis or
Lorenzo Hoyt, but is suspected that
they are held in some out of the way
place in custody of some of the Secret
Service men, who have not yet shown
themSelves. . .
Otis, the man arrested on Friday, is
thought by many to have been a. mem-
ber of the Secret Service force, and it
is said that he was released by the of-
ficers who had him in charge, and that
he took the train out of town. Otis
and Russell Hoyt boarded at Joseph
Morgan’s farm, about three miles from
Bethel.
Sunday morning at 5 o’clock several
Secret Service officers again visited the
Morgan farm and made another search
of the premises, but so far as can be
learned did not succeed in finding either
counterfeit bills or the much sought
plates frbm which they were prin ed.
The barn floor was taken up, and parts
of the interior walls taken out. The
detective then dug a number of stones
from the foundation of the building,
and after once more searching the
whole place, drove away and wont to
Danbury. Last night they again drove
in the direction of the Morgan farnl,but
it is thought that another point was
their destination.
Joseph Morgan, whose house has
been alleged to be the headquarters of
the band, expressed great surprise when
told of the arrest of his boarders. He
never saw the first thing that would
lead him to think they were mixed up
ini the crime With which they are charg-
e .
There is no doubt that the Morgan
farm was thought to be the headquar-
ters of the band. The place is_well
adapted for the purpose, it being 111 ani-
isolated position, and reached only by
rough and lonely roadll that are not
much travelled, while others have a
suspicion that the rendesrous of the
gang is at Redding, where in former
times the noted crook Noah Lee reSided.

sunken cheek outward, giving it an at-
tractive plumpness. Plumpers were made .
years ago, before the improvements of
modern dentistry, but the modern plum-
per doesn’t at all resemble the old-fash-_
ioned article.
“These old fashioned plumpers were
plates to which were attached concave
disks. The plate fitted into the roof of
.the ‘mouth so that the disk pressed
against the inside of the cheek and threw
it outward, imparting the appearance of
plumpness. '
“This old disk has been entirely done
’ away with nowadays, and in its stead is
a. plate with an artificial gum which
throws the cheek out. The. sinking of 'the
checks is usually due to the recession of
the natural gum caused by the loss of
teeth, but sometimes the check is natural—
ly sunken even when the teeth are intact.
The insertion of a plumper into the mouth»
will instantly remove the facial defect.
' “Most dentists make plumpers to order
for patients, but they can be bought for a
trifling sum at any nianufactory of dental
materials.
rubber, al’tliough celluloid, and in some?
instances gold, is the material usedgin the
manufzicture. '
“The method of manufacture is simple.
An impression of the roof of the mouth
and the gums is taken in wax. A mould
is made from the impression, and the
mould used iil making the plumper plate.
\Vhere the natural gum is sunken the
plate is simply filled out, so that when it
is inserted in the mouth it will throw the
cheek outward. The plate is held in place
by suction. As a rule plumpers are made
with artificial teeth also, although if the
patients desires the plate alone is made.
“\Vliere the jaw has been broken or is
misshapen as the result of an accident.
the plumper proves very effective in re-
moving the facial defect. '
“The value of‘ the device is that it can-
not be detected except upon a minute ex—
amination of the interior of the mouth. It
does not interfere at all with articulation
or the mastication of food. Plunipers are
used by some actresses, who are aware of
of their value as a beautifier of the mouth
and checks.”
Saved by a’Brave Girl.
Belvcderc has developed a Grace Dar-
ling in the person of Miss Tuckey. Last
Thursday the young lady, unaided, went
to the rescue of two men who were over-
turned in a skiff off the point of Belve-
, (lere.
The names of the men were McMillan
and Miner. They went out for a sail
from Tiburon. It was late in the after-
noon, and a pretty stiff breeze was blow-
ing off the shore. Bclvedere Point is a.
dangerous place t0,tliose who are unac-
guainted with the wind and currents.
The. twp navigators found this out to
their discomfort and great danger. As
they attemptsd to round the points. squall
struck them, and before they could let go
the sheet the boat was capsized and they
were thrown into the bay. .3
Miss-Tuckey saw the accident from her
house on Belvedere. She ran down to the
beach to send a boat to the assistance of
the men. There was no one there, and,
Without a second‘s hesitation, she jumped
into a. skiff and pulled out ihto the bay.
She handled the oars like a. veteran, and
sent the boat skimming over the waves
toward the capsized craft. The 'men had
managed to reach their boat and clutch
the keel. They were hanging on to the
bottom with desperation. They saw their
deliverance coming, and the sight-*of a
young lady pulling the boat lent strength
to their arms, and they clung for dear
life. ,
Miss Tuckey’s boat was tossed about in
the rough sea like a cookie shell, but the
fair boatwoman never swerved from her
course and ran the nose of her craft right
into the overturned boat, and issued her
captain. McMillan and Miner were well—
nigh exhausted, but they managed to
climb over the side and get into the stern.
Then their rescuer headed the boat back
for Belvedere and rowed them to the land-
ing. ' ,
Miss Tuckey, when it was all over, did
not faint. She simply tied the boat up,
and, leaving the rescued men on the beach
in speechless gratitude, went up the hill.

A \Voman’s Book.
Mr. Gladstone has the credit of discov-
ering the most widely read novelist of the
day. He directed attention to Mrs.
\Vard’l first book in a ponderously writ-
ten magazine review, treating it with
such dignity and seriousness that every-
body at once considered it an intellectual
duty to. read it. An unknown author
with his assistance at once acquired an en-
during reputation. But even without
this adventitious itid Mrs. W'ard’s books
inevitably have commanded recognition.
Her writings bear'the impress not merely
of genius of an original strain, but also
of profound thoughtfulness, intense sym-
pathy with whatever is influencing the
mind and stirring the hearts of the men
and women of to-day. and a refinement of
artistic sense whicli'perhaps is almost
unique among modern 1novel ists. Having
gained her place before a worldwide and
sympathetic audience, she wisely refrains
from exhibiting her literary art too often.
She does not fritter away her talent in
pot-boilers and fragmentary sketches, but
husbands her resources for great works,
laboriously planned and artistically
written out in detail. ’
Annoyed by the brevity of her nap,
Grace’s mother asked, somewhat impa-
tiently, why she awoke so soon. Looking
up in childish wonderment, she said:
“Why, I slept all there was!”—Youth’s
Companion. /
