The Seattle and Spokane fires en-
phasize one important fact, viz: that
no city can safely depend on water
pressure alone for a good supply of
water necessary TO put big fire out
Spokane has as fine water power as
any place in the Union, and was well
equipped with powerful engines, but
at the critical moment, somehow, the
water gives ont. At the Spokane fire
last Monday ''the water pressure was
weak" and the town went in two
hours, incurring loss of many mil.
lions.

ST. Louis, March 23-A fire broke out
yesterday afternoon in the Standard bag

Twelfth street. The whole concern was
q group Of old buildings, with very little
fire protection. Owing to the inflamma=
bic nature Of the building and its contents
the flames spread rapidly, and the widest
panic ensued among the 200 employees,
most Of whom were girls. A few men
employed in the building worked bravely
and succeeded in leading the panic-strick-
en- girls through the smoke and flames to
place where they could leap to low ad-
joining buildings. All were saved with
the exception Of Ida Labrecht, who was
found burned. Chas. Gubran jumped
from u window and was terribly injured
by the fall. A mao was run over by a

THE WATER WORKS.
The Material Purchased and Every.
thing in Readiness to Begin


From Mr.. Ira Myers who returned yes
terday from an extended visit east we
learn that all arrangements have been
made to begin work at once on the water
works for this city. The pumps pipes,
engines and all other material have been
purchased and will be shipped as soon as
the order can be filled at the factory. The
first shipments will be along in few
days. Mr.. Myers tells US the proposed
works will cost between $85, 900 and $780,
600 and that the piping alone will cost
nearly one-half that sum laid down here.
The works will be first class in every de-
tail and will not be excelled by any in
Montana. Mr. Cole, the eminent water
works engineer Of Chicago, has prepared
the plans and specification and will have
a general supervision Of the work, an IN
surance that it will be first class and fault
less in every particular. AS soon as the
plans are received from Mr.. Cole, which
will be in few days, bids will be asked
for the work to be done here, such as dig
ging the trenches, laying the pipe etc.
There will be 900 tons Of piping alone
which shows that this enterprise is one of
magnitude and affords rather "fat take"
for the railroad. It is proposed to rush
the work Of construction to the fullest ex
tent and early in the summer the com
psny will be ready to deliver water in
abundance to any part Of the city.

ARRIVING FAST.
CASCADE COUNTY FILLING UP WITH
SETTLERS.
Hardy, Industrious Tillers of the Soil
Coming In-Pat Hughes Bringing
Cattle for a Stock
E,- Farm ".5l 49, .,-"7

The country about Arrow creek and at
the confluence Of the Smith river and the
Missouri is being rapidly settled by hardy,
industrious immigrants, mostly from
Michigan, Minnesota and Ohio. They
are buying teams, building homes and
getting ready for the spring work. Kibbey
and its vicinity are receiving good share
Of the immigration. The fertile black,
loany soil Of that region has special at
fractions for settlers. In the Judith i'm
migrants are arriving from differ
ent directions from the Northern Pacific
on the southeast, and from the Manitoba
by way of the Judith river A good many
go also from here TO take look at that
favored region as we'll as a, the choice
lands Of Cascade county.
The area of wheat land this year will
be much larger than was at first antici-
pated. The large crops raised last year
by Messrs. Gibson, Clingan and others
have encouraged the settlers to SOW large
tracts to wheat. Good seed of the No.
hard kind has been supplied by the Catar
act mill company which has sold it on
time when credit was needed. AS last
year was only all average one as regards
rainfall, it is expected that the results
this year will be equally satisfactory.
Potatoes will also be raised in great
abundance in all districts, as farmers
foresee that an increased quantity Of pro-
visions will be consumed here, owing to
the influx Of settlers and the general
growth Of the home market.
E. NJ. Mitchell and six others arrived
today from Michigan to look over the
field with the view Of locating permanent
ly in this sections They are the advance
guard Of much larger party.
Pat Hughes is expected in day or two
with two car loads Of two year old heifers
for his stock farm. Il
Mr.. D. r. McGinnis, the energetic off.
cial Of the Manitoba railroad, is in town
and is taking an active interest in the
success Of the new settlers. He amazed
IL person who took him for land-seeker
and gave bad advice by telling him in
energetic terms that he knew the s'''ly
rs well as himself. III.
