Enjoying Vacations Now.

District Attorney John X. Jones. about
a month ago. sent invitations to the dis
trict attorneys of the OF Y counties of
the state to come to S..anton In the
latter part of this month for the purpose
of organizing an association. holding
a convention, and getting acquainted.
From all he received favorable replies.
and they We're enthusiastic over the
idea. Mr. Jones was heartily thanked
for suggesting it, and they promised
to be on hand.
In order to fix time when 1t will be
convenient for them to come he wrote
again and finds that on account of the
absence of many of them on vacations
with their families, II would be difficult
to arrange the date earlier than the lat
ter part OF August. He has. therefore
postponed the time until then. and
meanwhile will go on perfecting ar
rangements to make their coming
pleasant one.

toys .htp. Putnam county. is stirred
over the discovery of remarkable pro-
perties in the water OF we'll on the
farm of Casa Broadstreet. The water
is pure, cold and sparkling, but 1t con-
tains Some secret property which, AS
seriously alleged by scores of witnesses
gives the same eXhilirating effect upon
the human system as alcohol. Dozens
of people have experienced the sensa-
ton Of jag by drinking freely Of the
water, but no bad effect followed.
Samples of the water have been sent
to Greencastle and the state university
for analysis.
Some of the people who have exper-
imented with it assert that the intense
coldness of the water upon a heated
system gives the intoxicating effect, but
others insist that the water is the gen
uine stuff and that ii is the elixir for
which search has been made during all
the centuries past. A series of eXcava-
tions have been projected to the Broad
street farm, and little else is discussed
in Putnam county.
