THE CITY OWNS THEM.
The Formal Transfer Made of the Water
Works System.

The city now owns the water works.
The deed of transfer was passed over
to the council Wednesday evening by
W. Ii. Wheeler & Co., and the mayor
and city clerk were ordered to draw an
order for $4,000 with which to make
the first payment. That W spractical-
~ the gist of the whole me- ing of the
council held Wednesday evening.
There were other things came up.
For instance Mr.. Wheeler had bill
for extras which the ordinance did not
call for. These he said he did not wish
to force the city to pay. If the city felt
disposed to take these extra matters off
his hands all well and good. Some of
the extras were for matters not fore
seen when the ordinance was drawn.
He did not desire to ask anything un-
businesslike and stated that the items
he had down we're as follows: He had
put in three extra hydrants at $81.06.
A change in the pump house plans had
been made as ordered costing $187.
Two blow offs had been put in for the
purpose of draining off the whole sys-
TEN into the lake at 1927. 80. The lot
upon which the power house stands
cost $500. This was to be refunded.
The gas fitting at the power house cost
$3O.50 There were 10000 pounds of
special castings made which cost
$224.90. Then in the deal with the
Park. City Water company $3.50 had
been paid for the contracts with the
city for hydrant rentals. On this he
had received back 1912. Then the
intake we'll cost $500 or 5000 extra;
then there we're the operating expenses
since the city had accepted the plant.
The full bill amounted to close on to
2,300
The bills for the lot, the changes in
the pump house, the blow-offs, the gas
fitting, operating expenses, special
castings, extra hydrants and the differ
ence in the amount paid out and re-
ceived back in the deal with the Park
City Wafer company, amounting to
$537.65, were all allowed. The rest
were not.
The next meeting of the council will
be held next Monday evening, at which
time the committee on water works
will report some plan of operation and
a schedule of rates.

AN EFF|GY AT ELMHURST.
Suburban Society Excited
Over a Mock Hanging on
the Street.
ELDER SMITH is cHAsT1sED.
Gossip About Marriage Feast
Causes Ill Feeling Among
Church Members.

Society at Elmhurst, quiet burg on the
San Leandro road, is standing over a
smoldering volcano which is likely to
break into an eruption at any moment,
and the gossips of that pretty town have a
story to discuss which will last them for
many days to come.
Early in June Thomas Preston and Miss
Edwards, two society young people OF
Elmhurst, were married amid much re-
ioicing OF friends and relatives. The fes-
tivities of the occasion were the talk of the
community.
Encouraged by the social success OF the
gathering, a second entertainment was
prepared, and out of this grew the trouble
that is shocking the community to its very
foundations.
Soon after the second dinner rumors be-
gan to float about that on that occasion
Mrs. Simonton, the wife OF the Postmaster,
had taken few more glasses of refresh
ments than were really necessary. The
rumors were finally traced to Mrs. Charles
Rice and Mrs w. 4. Smith, and consider
able ill-feeling between the families OF
Smith, Simonton and Rice was engendered.
This feeling was heightened on June 20,
when Mrs. Smiths husband, who is pill
lar of the church, had personal encounter
with Postmaster Simonton, in which the
latter's wife joined.
Mr.. Smith entered the office whistling
and was ordered to desist by the Postmas-
ter. He refused to do so and was assaulted
by the angry United States official. Mrs.
Simonton is said to have taken an active
part in the fracas, which was very much
one-sided from the fact that Mr.. Smith
from his religious Ieanings refused to de-
e. l.. IL l. H. Oh
meekly.
After that the people of Elmhurst were
prepared for almost anything and were
not surprised when the denouement came.
On the morning of the Fourth of July,
hanging in front of one of the principal
business houses, was found an etfigy,
dressed in feminine apparel and labeled as
follows:
Gossipers of Elmhurst beware.
WHITECAPs.
Near by was board shaped like tomb
stone on which was painted verse couched
in language more forcible than elegant, in
which Mrs. Rice's name was mentioned.
Now the good people of Elmhurst are
looking for further developments. for the
friends of Mrs. Rice and also those OF Mrs.
Smith are making determined effort to
ascertain who placed the figure and tomb
stone there, and are voWing vengeance on
the perpetrators.
Not only has the episode disrupted So
ciety, but it threatens to tear asunder the
church congregation to which the Smiths
and Simontons belong. Since the fight in
the postotfice Mrs. Simonton.has refused to
attend services, and in spite of the efforts
of the pastor insists on remaining away.
Her friends are defending her position,
while those of Mrs Smith declare that 1t is
a good thing for the church that she does
stay away.

The Carp's Fate in Pennsylvania.

The German carp has been tottering for
many moons on the pedestal to which he
was exalted by amateur fishermen three
or four years ago. The signing of the bill
by Governor Hastings Withdrawing pro-
lection from the carp completed its down
fall, and now the foreigner is nothing but
a piscatorial pariah-an outcast In the
world of waters. If the solemn WORD of
fishermen can be taken as fact, the affair
is as it should be, and the sooner he is
totally exterminated and driven out of
these waters the better it will be for the
peace of mind OF fish who are really tit for
food.
The carp multiplies at a terrific rate, eats
all the spawn of other fish, and besides
that is no better than a red-handed assas-
sin, for he will permit no other fish to live
in the same pond with himself. AS food
fish the carp is fraud, and is soft and
tiabby to disgusting degree. Now if the
lawmakers will only put price upon the
pugnacious carp, there may yet come sun

ciples of Izaak MISUNDERSTANDING Rec
