Monarch Matters.

Special correspondence of the HERALD
Monarch, Oct. 19.-Every farmer
about Monarch is threshing-at home
or for his neighbour and the crops are
turning out well. There are three ma
chimes at work within a radius of five
miles of town.
Sam Giesey the prosperous rancher
has bought Forest Goodman's interest in
a steamer. Giesey and Geo. Bigger
mar own it now.
The Brace machine is at Payne's, on
the road to the famous Belt Park to
thresh two fine crops,-one for Alex
Iule and the other for Mrs. Joyce.
They may be last but not by any means
the least.
Mrs. Greedy has been very sick for
several days but is much better. DR..
Sandow came from Neihart to see her.
Mrs. Miebach was in from her farm
and spent Sunday in Monarch. She re-
ports her crops fine.
Lamb Bros. and A. NJ. Matthews have
returned from the gold fields of b. c.
and show some very valuable nuggets Of
gold. They don't state how many they
have but by the contented smile they
wear, n must believe they have "A
plenty.
ID. F. Smith has opened up a fine
stock of staple and fancy groceries and
ranchers' supplies.
Mr.. Bridges is conducting a large
school in a satisfactory manner.

1hey DO, My Son.

We are in receipt of a letter from a
boy in Indiana who wants to subscribe
for The Kicker, but his father won't let
him because he has heard that all Arj.
iona editors play poker. The boy asks
us If this is SO Yes, my son, your ia
Their is right. While the game of poker
was not invented exactly for the bene.
fit of western editors, they have sort Of
drifted into it until they come to feel an
ownership. Eastern editors, as we un-
derstand it, run to checkers, fox and
geese and betting so cents on a horse
race, but out here we have but one di-
version. We play poker when we are
Joyous and we play it when we are sad.
Once in awhile an editor plays it to
make money, but he is soon given the
cold shoulder. 1t is a nice, quiet game,
with lots of surprises in it, and if an
editor happens to win anything he al
ways remembers the heather. Could we
take your father in hand for an hour or
two we could make him change his
opinion, but as that is impossible we
a only feel sorry for yon.

New Water Works Reservoir.

The Neihart Water company has be-
gun the construction of a new dam to
support a reservoir which will contain
1,500,000 cubic feet of water. The site
Of the new reservoir is Just below the
old one on O'Brien creek. 1t is not in
tended to destroy the old one but to
employ II of them as a supplement in
case of great emergency.
The contract for the new dam has
been let to p. 7. Sweeney and j. n.
Sturgeon, who already have "a force of
men at work scraping and grading for
the pond. The style oc dam is known
as sheet piling. A trench will be dug
across the gulch to bedrock. On bed
rock will be set immense posts standing
vertical, and to these posts will be spik-
ed seasoned, tongued and grooved fir
planks 3x12. The trench will be lamp
ed with clay impermeable to water, and
the whole structure will be supported
above and below with entertainments of
rubble stones and clay. A slush gate
will be made in the centre of the bot
tom, by means of which in seasons of
freshet the bed may be cleaned.
This dam will be completed by Dee.
1, and its use will insure the running of
the electric plant all winter. The water
company will have constantly a supply
of p millions of cubic feet, or about
$4,000 barrels of the purest water that
ever flowed.

Wellington and Napoleon.

There are some interesting stories in
Oshe recently published "reminiscences of
Mr.. Corbould, the drawing master to
Queen Victoria's children. Here is one
of them: son reaching the palace one
morning the Prince of Wales showed
me a drawing he had just finished. Ma
poleon was depicted III horseback level

who was advancing to cut down his
great enemy. While | was looking at
the drawing, who should come in but
the duke himself. Why, the very man
who can best criticise my drawingl'
cried the prince. Now, can yon tell me
who that is on the left?' he went on,
presenting the sketch to the duke.
Well, replied the latter deliberately,
Judging from the waistcoat and the
cooked hat, l should say it was meant
for Napoleon. Right, said the prince.
And who is the other figure?' BY the
cut of the jib, returned the duke calm
ly, Il should say it was myself. Right
again. Well, now, is the drawing ac-
curate? That's what | want to know.
The luke rose, put down the sketch and
thus impressively addressed the Prince
of Wales: My boy, I'm going to tell
you something that the English people
don't seem to realize. | was sent out to
keep Napoleon in check, but never in

The Duke of Sutherland presented a
park to one of the pottery towns. The
opening was a big event, and the Prince
of Wales was asked to perform the cere-
mony. A %deputation waited on the
prince accordingly, a wealthy and
worthy magistrate being spokesman.

Much disconnected, the d~eputation

They watched and set traps of every

Held in Neihart.

Hall last Friday evening was a splendid
occasion. The youth and beauty of

pating in the dizzy whIrl. The pro-
grams of the evening (models of ele-
gance in the printers art) were headed
by the spirited lines of Millions Comus:

Initiate the starry quire;
Come join hands and beat the ground

The music by Races orchestra was all
that the most fastidious could wish, and
when it came to supper, the great
throng of pleasure seekers were greeted

gorgeously decorated and furnished with
every d~elicacy the season affords. 1t

prominent feature.
