Mr.. Curtis is 80 years and six
months old. and is pretty nimble for his
years. At the age Of 10 years he be-
came a sailor boy, and was three years
~apprenticed to a carpenter, getting sl25
for his work. As q jOurneyman. he
worked from sunrise to sunset, and from
September 20 to March %, they worked
to 9 p. m. In those days, the carpenters
made all the doors, window sash, etc.
When ten hours was established as a
days work he was very glad, because il
gave time for learning. He thinks that
mankind need to find The Truth and
make it the guide of their life. in ali
things, and gives US this sentiment for

John B. Cough said he never got
over the necessity Of struggling agains:

Nance Co. Journal: The promise Of a
fruit crop is the finest ever seen in this
county at this season Of the year and as
there Is no snow In the mountains west
and north Of US We shall probably miss
our usual early May frosts. The cher
ries, peaches and plums are now in full
bloom and every little twig looks as
though it is to be loaded with fruit.
Will Davis the nurseryman remarked
this week that he would have so BUSH
els of apples on his young orchard.
Schuyler Sun: While out hunting
Monday Frank Kudrna saw some cells
in the slough where the water is low,
and shot eight Of them This is the
first time we ever heard Of cells being
caught with a gun but there is no rea-
son why one cannot shoot them as we'll
as fish and this is often done. There
have been several eels caught IN the
slough here before and when one can
secure as many a eight Of them at q
time they must be quite numerous.
Leigh World: A new cemetery has
been laid out in Creston. Two acres OF
ground have been purchased of j. T.
Morris on his farm just at the edge OF
town which will be used for that pur-
pose. The ground bought is the north
east corner Of the farm. An association
has not yet been formally made but
soon will be and the cemetery properly
laid out and fenced. There is talk Of
erecting a fine soldiers monument in
the center. A cemetery near at hand Is
something that has long been needed at
this place.
North Bend Republican: There is
something like 80 acres of beets IN the
vicinity OF North Bend and perhaps 800
acres of beets and chicory In North
Bend and the neighbo-ing country. II
will perhaps take 30 people to tend this
crop of which North Bend can furnish
100 and the neighboring country per-
haps 80 more. So 1t may be that the
beet growers will need more help than
is here at present. but if such Is the case
1t would be well TO enter into contracts
with the home people first and look
elsewhere when this means has been e1-
haustsd .--- Thos. Myers, a young man
who has been working with the ballast
gang on the {. P. road, had his foot
badly crushed by being run over by q
Of the cars. The accident happened at
$50 Wednesday evening, about a mile
this side Of Ames. The train had Just
started and Myers in getting on pu; his
foot on the oil box and it slipped OF and
vent under the wheel. He was brought
to this place where DIR. Doan dressed
the wound and the ne1t train took him
to Columbus where he will be cared for
at the eompany's headquarters 1t Is
probable that it will be necessary to
amputate four of his toes.

Considering together the several pro-
meters, / conclude it was the intention
Of the legislature that whe.e water is
furnished by the meter system only,
whether by the city itself or by some
private person or corporation, under its
authority, the patrons Of the water
works may be required to pay water
rents, but may not be required to pur-
chase and own meters.
This conclusion is directly sustained
BY the case of Red Star Co. We. Jersey
City. - n. j. Law, 246, which decision
is cited with approval by Judge Works
Of the supreme court Of California. in
the Ease Of Spring Valley Co. vs.. San
Francisco, y Pac. Reports, 91l. and is
incorporated into the text OF Beach on
Private Corporations. No authority to
the contrary has been cited and / have
found none.
1t vas argued at the hearing that the
meter rates fixed by the ordinance are
not reasonable or uniform and that the
Injunction should be made perpetual
for that reason alone.
/ think this contention is entirely
groundless. 1t is without support in
the decisions of the courts and is con-
veil considered cases.
However. In consequence Of the city
being given no power to compel the
purchase of meters, the temporary in
junction viii be made perpetual.
