The Problem That Has Annoyed That
City is Solved.

Wellington, Sept. 16.-The compiled
tons and entanglements in our water
works situation are coming to an end.
In the United States court at Wichita
yesterday a decree was entered fore
closing the mortgage of $50, 900 held by
the bOndhoIders.
A master in chancery will be ap-
the court house in this city.
All the probabilities are that the
water works system viii pass into new
hands and a new local management.
Then, in all probability, a new fran
chise will be granted by the city and
all the difficulties of the past be AMIGA
bly, adjusted.
In the present litigation the bond
holders are represented by Gleed, Ware
and Gleed of Topeka; the water works
company by w. w. Schwinn, and the
city by c. E. Elliott and James Law

COME NOW, Mr.. DOUTHITT,
Let Uncle Sans Regulars Occupy
Your Pasture Free of Charge.

T. F. Doran of the Committee of Fiji
teen has been comforting with Judge
W. P. Douthitt this morning in regard
to the granting the Douthitt tract,
which is directly north of the state
fair grounds, to the Committee of Fiji
teen for use as a camping ground for
the United States troops which will be
here during the Fall Festival.
Several weeks ago Mr.. Douthitt offer
ed this tract to the committee for the
week free of charge, but now he in
sists on being paid something for it.
The committee has no funds to APP
propriate for such a purpose, and
they are in a quandary to know what to
do.
The troops will have to be near the
fair grounds and no land seems availa
bic but this tract. The magnanimous
thing for Mr. Douthitt to do in the
matter is to let the committee have the
nastura for the week free of charge.
