Referee Schrader has postponed his
decision in the Dudley ct al VS. Evans
ct al case, recently heard before him,
until August 15. The decision was to
have been given July 10, but the press
OF other matters made it impossible
for the referee to get through with the
voluminous evidence and reach a de-
cision within the time first appointed.
The plunge bath project appears to
be in the soup" The promoters I'M
dertook too big a job and laid out
plans which were out of proportion
with the cash in sight. A compromise
could not be effected whereby the cloth
might be cut according 10 the funds,
and as a consequence the bottom
dropped out of the whole business. 1t
is really too bad, because the Wood
men picnic next month had been prom.
ised u plunge. The only way out this
is to appoint a committee consisting of
Fred Stebbins and Joe Rush to take
the visitors one at a tine and throw
them into the mill pond. They must
have a plunge at any cost.-Sp earfsh

Mrs. E. E. Record, wife of the man
ager of the Hulst & Price lumber con-
Germ at Terry was thrown from her
buggy last Thursday evening and sus-
tanned injuries which resulted in her
death Friday morning. The accident
was caused by her horse becoming
frightened ut a train suddenly coming
around a curve near the road on which
she was driving. The injured lady
sustained a fracture of the skull and
internal injuries. Mrs. Record'sten and
three-old daughters, were in the
buggy the elder of whom was
thrown out on her head, but not Sc
riosly injured. Mrs. Record was sew
eral years ago u resident of Hot
Springs and all those who knew her
will be panied to learn of her sad
death.
The embankment of the Edgemont
irrigation canal broke south of that
place III day last week. The water
poured down hill into the old bed of
the creek where the Burlington had
built it's tracks. The water rose to
within ten feet of the top of the fill
when the ground broke and the fill
quickly melted away. 1t washed the
track out Il considerable distance and
cut a hole about thirty feet deep. The
embankment had been inspected in the
early part of the week and found to be
in good shape and on the strength of
this an extra amount of water had
been turned in from the reservoir. A
small pipe had been pushed through
the embankment several months be-
fore and the pressure of the water
caused it to. cut around the pipe and
in three minutes water from all the
lakes and reservoirs was foaminQ
through the break. The damage to
the canal is about 5000.
