has been for several years instructor
of music in one OF the leading institu-
tons OF Oberlin. The object of her
visit has been mainly that of recrea-
ton and the course of her journey
was doubtless suggested by the resi-
dence OF her relatives in this city, but
so well-pleased is she with the west,
that she may become permanent
resident of our State and probably OF
this city.
The Olympia Light and Power Co.
are building dam on the Deschutes for
supplying the motive power of a series
of dynamos that will be used in operat-
ing their arc and incandescent
light system and for supplying power
to their central station, which will be
located at the foot of Main street.
There will be six dynamos two for
running the street cars, two for the
arc and incandescent lights and two
for motors designed to run various
kinds OF machinery. 1t it hoped and
expected to have the whole business
in operation within sixty days.
Mr.. George McClelland, an "Olym-
pia boy" has returned from fourteen
years of wandering DER the wide, wide
world. He followed the sea two years
after leaving here and visited many
foreign lands, and was subsequently,
employed many years in navigation
on the great lakes. He then settled
down to quiet life at Newcastle, Da-
kota, where he engaged in the hotel
business, but it seems was never fully
contented and at no time devoid of a
longing for his boyhood home. At last
this feeling became too strong to re-
sist and he has come back cater
many days" to make Olympia his per-
manent abiding place.
The height OF the new reservoir for
Olympia's water supply is 2lO feet
above the bench mark on Main street,
which represents the starting point
for all grades. 1t is ITO feet square at
the bottom and 156 at the top, with a
depth Of Is feet 1t is estimated that
it will hold l, 100000 gallons of water.
The water will be supplied through
Pinch mains on Fourth and Main
streets, and 6 and S-inch mains on the
other thoroughfares. Twenty-Five
hydrants will be distributed over the
city so as to secure the best possible
protection from that number of. con-
nections. The system will be sup
piled by a gravity stream from Fergu-
sons lake, and two Worthington
pumps on Nozzle creek, which have
lifting capacity of 100000 gallons
each day. The system will be ade-
quate for population three or four
times as large as we have now.
