Squiers, at Boise City, is the proper
person to address in all matters per-
tanning to the work.
H. Bloomfield, experimenting engi-
neer for the Lewiston Light and. Water
Co., arrived this week and will take
in charge the completion of the plant.
The water mains have been Ia.ld now
the full length Of "E" street, and the
hydrants put in place. Side lines
have been put on Chambers and
Monroe streets. On "E" street the
pipes are eight inches and on the side
lines six. Despite of several rumors to
the contrary, the members of the conf
pany reassert their determination to
put water ON the hill this summer.
One main for that purpose will take off
at Fifth street and supply the lots back
of that point. This will insure the
building Of several fine residences In
the Park Addition this season, and
give a start to what will be at no great
distant day the finest resident portion
of the city.
The Printers, nothing dismayed at
their first defeat, met the Clerks last
Sunday for the second game of the
series and redeemed themselves by
routing the enemy by score of 18 to
l6, with one inning to spare for the
Printers. The opening innings were
in favor of the Clerks who took an easy
lead and held it till the eighth inning.
In the seventh and eighth, however,
the Printers fell onto the curves and
batted them freely to all parts Of the
field, scoring seven runs and gaining a
lead that the Clerks, in their half Of
the ninth, could not pull down. The
batteries were, Stanton and Coburn,
Clerks; Brearley and Thompson, Prin-
ters. The third game of the series will
be played next Sunday afternoon.
The surveyors are now at work Cross
sectioning the line over the reservation.
The matter Of right of way has been
successfully settled between the com.
pany and the government, and all now

mission to appraise the damages sus.
tained by the Indians. Several of our
prominent citizens have been holding
telegraphic communication with Hon.

this week urging that the department

it Is likely that the force of men now
, lying ready will soon be at work clos
ing up the short gap Of grade between
! this point and Juliaetta.
