Chicago Will soon Have an Electrical
Water Supply.
Chicago is to have an electrical water
supply system.
The city electrician. the commission
or of public works and the city engineer
held a conference yesterday which will
result in a complete revolution in the
waterworks system of Chicago. At the
conclusion of the conference Mr.. Bar
rett was authorized to proceed at once
with the preparation of plans and speci-
f%ications, and it may be positively stat
ed that nc time will be lost in proceed
ing with q work which will quickly
furnish every section Of the city with
an adequate supply Of water and give
Chicago the finest system of waterworks
in the world.
John P. Barrett is the inventor, or
more properly the discoverer, Of the
new system. Years ago Mr.. Barrett in
vented and put into operation the won
derful electrical appliances which have
since been copied by the police and fire
departments of every progressive city on
earth. In the opinion of competent
mechanical experts who have had an
opportunity to examine the electrical
water supply system the latter will rank
even higher in the scale Of municipal

Government Refuses to Take Lands in
Minnesota.
WASHINGTON, Oct. /. - Secretary
Smith has refused to accept a relin-
quishment offered by the governor of
the state of Minnesota of certain lands
granted to the state for the Hastings
and Dakota railway. The case is of
more than ordinary Importance. The
company did not earn the lands i'll time,
but as congress never declared a for
fixture it is held that the lands could
not be forfeited. The company sold its
road to the Milwaukee and St. Paul
company, but retained its lands.
The Legislature of Minnesota declared
the charter of the Hastings and Dakota
forfeited and the company went out of
existence. But by the operation Of the
Minnesota constitution it
Remained q Corporation
for all legal purposes for three years,
during which time the lands were as.
signed to Russell Sage, the principal
stakeholder, for the benefit of all the
stockholders.
Settlers to the number Of 225 have &C,
cupied a portion Of the lands and abou,
{, 1000 acres are in dispute. In 1894 the
legislature of Minnesota passed a bill
authorizing the governor Of Minnesota
to relinquish the lands to the United
States, which would make them public
lands and secure the rights of settlers
upon them. Secretary Smith rejects
the REIMBURSEMENT. The cases of the
settlers will now be decided upon the.l
individual merits.

"a Secretary Murray Of the county fair
association IS receiving some unjust
censure from disappointed prize winners
in the bread contest. 1t appears the
Sentinel of last Friday sent out a
botched list of prizes which led certain
people to believe they had earned prizes
when they had not, which OF course was
not the fault OF, the people deceived, but
in the giving of a wrong report. Some
of the entries in the contest with N. b.
Smiths & Sons flour were marked
az from such flour while some, in the
haste of entering were not so marked.
The decision Of the judges gave Mrs.
Jones, first prize, Mrs. Mathews, second;
Mrs. Tuttle, third; Mrs. Stevens fourth
| and Mrs. Stewart fifth. Because the
| first two were not marked "Smith's"
-four some n put them into a seperate
class thinking the association gave prizes
to another class which was not the case.
The other three were put into the class
called IN. b. Smith & Sons -four" and
in their order, given first. second and
third prizes. When the secretary cor.
rected the classification Mrs, Jones and
Mrs. Mathews naturally held first and
second places as originally ~adjudged,
Mrs. Tuttle took third and the last two
dropped out there being no other prizes

NY old milk horse Jim got out OF the
corral, and running, slipped and fell into
a ditch killing himself almost instantly.
He was twenty-four years old. | raised
him and he was never off his feed but
once and was in fine flesh and fettle
when he died and his limbs we're as
smooth and straight as a yearlings. He
had been in service for twenty-one years
and up to three or four years ago every
man, woman and child in town knew
him. He was q faithful, trusty horse
and | feel as though had lostAn old
and tried friend. He had worked in the
milk wagon for about sixteen wears and
knew the route and where to stop as well
as the nan that drove him and had an
eye to business too. Ii the driver chat
ted too long with the ladies' he would go
to the next stopping place and stay for
a short time. | once had a driver that
was a good single hand talker, especially
to the ladies, and l have heard of the
horse being three houses ahead of him.
But Jim has-H4sde his last trip and the

KENNEDY.

The New Era accounts for Kennedy's
set back as follows:
One thing more has held advancement
in serious check. 1t is the absurdedly
high figure placed upon properties of
limited development. Original owners
unable through lack of capital to develop
their claims materially, have held them
at such ridiculousIy high prices as to
keep out men of financial means, who
would Willingly meet fair advances but
cannot stand noisensical values for
mere prospects.
Let those who have fair prospects
which they cannot develop with their
own means turn them, under reasonable
terms, to those who are financially stu
ated to handle them properly.
Look to it, those who claim to have
her advancement at heart, that you do
not put a wet blanket upon capital that
would seek investment here, under
favorable conditions, by placing I'M
reasonable and absurd valuations on
your properties, for through such mis-
takes the camp is bound to suffer a
dearth of energy and advancement, and
yon will suffer individually with it.

IN MEMORY OF VINCENT LA FORGE.

Dead Dead Oh say not so!
Say rather, that he sleepeth.
Oh tell US not that even now
Death vigil DER him keepeth.
Arouse once more, come back to life
Our hearts call loudly for thee,
They must not bear thee to the grave,
We cannot spare thee.
Our idol and our darling boy,
Oh why must thou be chosen,
Oh God! Oh God! this dreadful blow
Hath left us all heart broken.
Grief-stricken wife long you'll mourn,
And call for him in vain,
Nor word nor look will e'er repay
Thy anguish or thy pain.
Brothers and sister gaze once more
Upon thy brother dear,
Oh awful thought, it is the last
Draw nearer, still more near.
Affections hand was on thee laid
To draw thy soul above;
In meek submission lowly bow,
He chasteneth in His love.
That smile SO bright, that voice so mild
Will greet thee never more,
But weep not 80, tits for the best,
His griefs and pains are DER.
And oh you must not wish him back,
To this dark world OF sin;
The loss that seems SO great to you,
ls his eternal gain.
Oh let this thought console your hearts,
And dry the tear-dimmed eye,
Prepare to join the loved in heaven,
Joined, never more to part,
No pain nor death will enter there,
No hearts DER sorrow pray,
There Joy and love forever reign,
And scatter grief away.

OUR SUBSCRIBERS WANT TO KNOW

NN1 6pOoO 1ADulO MANI ~ ANUW !;
Why Belkuap Bower doesn't come to
town?
Why Archie is sad and how he divides
his time?
Why the caller who went calling got
called off for ten days?
Why that town meeting is not called
to see whether VIZ want anything or not
and what?
Why a phunny phellow klub couldn't
make things lively for married men for
a month or two?
Why Charlie Norman is making his
house so comfortable and why it took
him so long to make up his mind?
Why the people who own worthless
ours Of every description allow them TO
endanger the lives OF drivers and occu-
penis of vehicles and why there are not
more of the ours shot?
Why a young man in light overcoat
will persist in doing his counting at the
front gate and is it necessary with the
thermometer at zero? Whether he
cares more for the girl or the thermo. me-
ter?
Why the Journal can see no difference
between the resolution offered by Com
ms and the one introduced by Summer
field and if there is no differnce why
does the Journal howl and why was
Summerfeld's resolution shelved?
Why the Washoe representatives in
the Legislature are not all as mindful OF
the interests of their constituents as is
Hon. ii. IL. Beck who kindly emem-
bers US with reports and bills we desire
to see and comment upon SO the dear
people may know what is going on.
Why, if as the Idaho Times says, the
Reilly funding bill will pass, alleging
that three million dollars is to be used
to purchase the necessary one hundred
and fifty congressional votes at $40, 900
each, it ID necessary for the Nevada Leg
l~slature to pass any resolutions against
1t? Why is a substitute necessary
for Senator Snmmertield's resolution ?
Where is the hole the Gazette speaks of
and who wants to crawl through it?
Why 1t is necessary to 4 have special
officer from abroad to make Wadsworth
people regard the law, if it is true that
there IL or was a foreigner in our midst
to enforce the fish law. Wholesome
laws are OF no use if unenforced and the
fish law is evidently regarded az whole
some by the people of Nevada excepting
Wadsworth. We must obey the law or
take the consequences no matter wheth-
er We regard the law as wise and lust or
not.
Why all the farmers don't think as
does Hon. Fred Dangberg, one of the
active farmers of Douglas county, who
says the business methods of Nevada peo-
pie are rulnous to the State, and especial
ly so to the farmers. With every facility
for curing bacon we send our hogs to
the San Francisco market, sell them at
a low price and import hams and bacon
tor which we pay a high price. We
should endeavor to utilize our own pro-
ducts and keep as much money as possi-
BILE in the State. He intends to convert
every pound OF grain and ton of hay
raised on his ranch in to pork, beef and
butter. He does not export hogs and
import bacon and he hopes that farmers
generally will consult their own interests
and do likewise. We should produce as
much of what we consume as possible.
That will give employment to the peo-
pie, make a home market for our pro-
ducts and make us more independent
and prosperous.
