Grip is here again. but it is here in a

and 1890, when it counted its dead by
the thousands on both sides of the At
lantic
The malady has been prevalent for
perhaps a month, but it is only within
the last few days that it has been rec
ognized as our dread visitor from Rus
STA, who came in December. 1889. At
first the doctors passed the cases off as
colds. but they have found them so
stubborn and unyielding to treatment
that they now are taking the more ser
ious view.

The symptoms as described by physi-
clans in all parts Of the city are first a
slight fever with chills. followed by a
catarrhal condition of the head. de-
scending to the throat and even to the

cases there is a most distressing and

BIG CALIFORNIA TRAVEL
Santa Fe May Have to Run Limiteds
Four Days a Week.


California travel is starting out
heavy this winter. For the past three
weeks the Santa Fe California limited
train, westbound. has carried an extra
sleeper in addition to the regular equip
ment, and it is possible that the man
agement will be compelled to run this
train, if not daily. four times a week
With the extra sleepers attached, the
trains averaged ninety three pas
sengers from Chicago to Los Ange-
les All roads are now selling through
tickets for $3.50, but even at this low
rate the trains are at present paying
handsomely
The comparatively cheap rates, which
now apply both to tickets and sleeping
car berths, and the magnificent ser
vice, are factors in stimulating Califor-
mia travel. Four handsomely finished
composite cars. built especially for the
Santa. Fe limited trains by the Pullman
company, have been recently placed in
the equipment of the trains.

BIG STORAGE RESERVOIR.
U. s. officer is Looking for a Place to
Locate One.

Denver. Dec 12-Captain NJ Chitten-
den Of the corps of engineers of the
United States army has arrived in
Denver and called at the Office of State
Engineer Sumner to look over the t0pO-
graphical maps of Colorado. with a
view of selecting the most desirable
site for a great water storage reser-
VOir.
Capt. Chittenden's mission is one Of
extra ordinary Importance to the agrl-
cultural interests of Colorado and
marks the comm encement of federal
interest in western irrigation projects.
The idea is to establish government
storage reservoir or lake in the noun
tains on the eastern side of the divide,
which viii save huge volumes of water
which now run to waste in the spring.
The project viii, when completed, open
UP vast areas of now arid region to
cultivation
A start was made last spring when
congress passed the bill authorizing
the collection of great federal reser-
vOirs, one in Wyoming and one in Col
orado. The bill carried with it an ap-
preparation of $1,000 to defray the ex-
penses of the surveys and other pre-
1iminary work.
II have about decided that the prop
er place to locate the reservoir would
be at the headwaters of the Platte"
