Willow Grove Addition

Is the only part of McCook in which
you can be independent and control
your own water. If you find a nuisance
like Meeker prowling about the back
yard you can "abate" him by turning
hot or cold water on him, and he can't
hide behind Cap. Phillips or the city
ordinance.
You have to pay about the same for
water from the Lincoln Land Company
in McCook that you do for rent Of your
house. In Willow Grove Addition you
can dig a well, put up a windmill and
tank for about what it costs you to pay
water tax in other parts of McCook for
one year.
c. F. Babcock will sell you lots at
from $50 to $500 in this addition that
are just as good, nearer the high school
and as neal the business center OF. Nc
Cook as lots for which the Lincoln Land
Company will charge you from 1900 to
$500.

Philip Blatt sued James Ellis in Squire
Berry's court yesterday afternoon for SIS
rent money claimed due. He received a
verdict for SIG. County Attorney Dodge
and Lawyer Rittenhouse tried Blatt's
case. Lawyers Moore and Benson de-
Tended Ellis. There were some racy de-
velopments during the trial and much
oratory. There was a set-of Of $50 pre-
sented BY Ellis.

| Superintendent Phelan of the B. & M.
railroad has recently completed an
irrigation ditch in Parks precinct that
uses a large per cent of the volume
of water which flows down Rock creek.
Some of the Republican river irrigation
men whose bitches have their sources
below the mouth of Rock creek are now
short of water and they contend that
the Phelan ditch has no right to the
water in this stream. They claim that
the water filings they made several years
ago give them the right to all the water
that flows in the Republican river and
its tributaries. There is a probability
that an injunction calculated to restrain
Mr.. Phelan from using Rock creek water
for irrigation purposes will be issued
before long.-Benkelman Bee.

a four minute stop at Ashtabula for water,
making the total running time for IS
miles 81 minutes. From Collinwood
yards an 88 mile run was made in So
minutes, including another four minute
stop. From Collinwood to Saybrook, a
distance of AZ miles, was made in 36
minutes, or at a rate of 70 miles an hour.
The run from Kingsville to Dock juno
ton, 80 miles, was made in 28 minutes,
or a rate Of 1917 miles an hour, the fast
time ever made on this division of the
road. The locomotive pulling the train
was No. 1873, one of the Brooks Locomo-
tive Works Io-whee1 passenger engines.
This run would seem to disprove the
statement made by some railway experts
that only an 8-wheel type of locomotive
was adapted for high speed.
Lehigh Valley engine 655, lately re-
built, was tried between Buffalo and Ba-
tavia, N. Y, on May 9TH, and ran a mile
in the face of a strong wind at the rate of
Sax miles An hour. It is expected this
engine will be able to average 70 miles
an hour drawing a heavy passenger
train.
Monday, D. Carpenter was in Squire
Berry's presence charged with letting a
stallion run at large. A farmer named
Snyder who lives on the Pat Walsh
place was the complaining witness. The
minimum fine $50 was imposed. The
case was appealed to the next term of
district court. The animal broke out of
a pasture. 1t was less than two years of
age, but over eighteen months.
