The added cost was due to nced for unexpccted excavation. The total excavation in cubic yards was 1, S93 and two tcnths. "MORRISON'S FAUST" Since Shakespeare, no writer has niade such a powcrful use of the psychic as did Goethe in "Faust." The fearful and the uncanny attract with unaccountable mesmeric interest, and Mephistopheles, with his insidious ways and glittering sophistry, is the urch-villain befpre whom the bloodiest fiends bow to the dust. The vcry stupendousness of his cvil influcnce affords the most dramatic of materi! for the playwright, for in the cnd, his defeat is terrible, in proportion to the depth to which hc falls. No villain ever fell farther. For the same reason, the escape of Faust and Marguerite from the machinations of a brain so cmpowered with the strength of evil is the more thrilling. No themc is so universally entliralling as that which portrays the saving of the soul from perdition. It is a masterpiece in mental speculation that will interest the human race as long as it has breath and understanding. The popu- Iarity of " Faust" will last as long as there is an audicnce left on carth and actors cnough to fill the east. "Faust" gave Henry Irving the opportunity for one of his greatest triumphs wliile Lewis Morrison made an artistic success and incidentally a fortune out of the play. The present version has seen two notable revivala of the play, namely, Beerholhm Trce's production at liis own tneatre, London, England and the sensational revivai of Morrison's "Faust" now befortT American audiences.

Tho final soro in strokes was Brooks, 97; Greene, 61. A supper was served after the match. ACTION IMPROBABLE Entire State Watching Montpelier in Regard to Protection of Water Supply. Tho presence of the State Board of Health officcrs of the State in this city the past two or threo days has led to a rcnewcd discussion of the Berlin Pond matter which has becn given so much publicity and the health board havo had occasion to visit the source of the city's water supply during their stay in town and to look over conditions there. Watch man Wcdge was in town yestrday after noon and informed Health Officer William Lindsay that a couple of men had becn diicovercd swimming in thc reservoir but that hc had been unable to appre- hcndthemsoon cnough to get their names It is quito cvidcnt that the only way to securo the rights of the pcople who use this sourco of supply, is prosecution of the offcnders and tho Board of Tradc has como forward with a resolution backing tho State's Attorney in any action he may tako in bchalf of the city. Thc importanco of a puro water supply has been brought out with renewed vigor during the past few days and expcrts havo disusscd the Berlin Pond matter both beforo tho Stato school and elscwhcre. It is understood that Attorney General J. G. Sargcnt has a meeting with tho board' of health this evening at tho Stato House and that Mayor Dawley will be present and talk over tho water con tamination question with tho Stato Board. Tho recent decision of tho Suprcmo Court backing the State Board of Health iu its action agaiust St. Jolinsburyites will havo a tclling cffcct upon all similar eucoachmcnts throughout tho Stato and tho greatest desiro of tho majority of local pcoplo is not only to havo bathing in tho pond strictly prohibited but to havo tho law enforccd for what it is worth.

Montpelier Hunters Are Preparing For the Fall Shooting Season Eighteen lieens?s were issued yester day by Timothy R. Merrill to Mont pelier hunters in accordance with a new law made by the last Legislature which requires that residents as wcll as non residents shall provide themselves with licenses to liunt in this state. The law does not go into effect until the firt of September but at the present ratc of applications for licenses, nearly two months beforo tho opening of the deer season in October a large number of hunters are to be expected in Montpelier this fall. The law, which was made at the last session of the legislature supplemented a former act which provided for the licensing of non resident hunters by mak ing it also nesessary for residents to take out a license. The only exception to this law is that proprieters of land or tenants on the same, may shoot game on their land without the permit. Noxious ani mals may be killed at any time. The licenses to residents cost but fifty cents and is merely a precautionary measure to keep non residents, whose fee is fifteen dollars, from hunting under the guise of bona fule inhabitants. The licenses are sent from the city clerk's office to the Fish and Game Commission and it usually takes a few days for that olllce to send them back so that it is desirable in more ways than one for the sportsmen to makc out their application to hunt as soon as possible and avoid the rusli which is sure to come later. City Sheriff Lewis Pollard when seen last night said that ho expected that at least 300 licenses would be issued from this city alone under the new law. Tho licenses, which arrived yesterday are for Antonio Barberi, Dr. C. H. Burr, Wm. A. Daniels, Maurice W. Dewey George Jerome, C. D. Latlirop, George Megrath, Harry C. Moulton, Janies Medlcr, Romes Magne, Gante Sair, Joel Stratton ,Tefundo Sara, Frank Town, John Tomola, George B. Walton. "Had dyspepsla or indigestlon for years.
