A WATER RIGHT.

Water is water In some parts of the
West, and therefore decision just rem
dered by the Supreme court of Colora-
do will not seem so strained there as it
might where there is more water. I'm
der this decision it is held that a man
cannot pump from his well on his own
land water which, if let alone, would
make it's way into stream in which
another man has recognized rights.
This judgment is regarded as of great
Importance in region where agricul-
ture is almost impossible without .irri-
cation. This case arose in the Lone
Tree valley, where a man named Will
son dug two artesian wells, and, by
means of water pumped from them,
brought 4S0 acres ,of land to a high
state of produetiveness. His scheme
had disastrous effect on Lone Tree
creek, however, and a water company
which had been supplying it's bitches
liOiil lHdI SLT6diH ODCdlHGu an 1n1unC-
ton against the operation of Wilson's
pumps. The County court made the in
junction permanent as regards one of
the pumps, and dissolved it as regards
the other, the jury holding that while
neither well drew water from the creek,
one of them did prevent water that
would naturally find it's way into it
from doing so. Wilson appealed, his
counsel claiming that percolating water
belonged to the owner Of the soil in
which 1T was found, and might be law
fully pumped therefrom, but this con-
tention was overruled by Judge Bough-
ton, who expressly laid down the doc
trine that If such pumping interfered
with the percolations which would 9th
erwise find their way into a stream
such pumping might be enjoined. The
court required each party to the suit
| to pay it's own costs

rEaoE wIrn ARBIrRArIoN.

After a century of contention, and at
least one good war scare. the Vepe-
zuelan boundary question is to be fin
ally settled. The Anglo Venezuelan
treaty has been signed with a magnih-
cent pen, made of gold and fastened in
holder made from an eagles quill,
sent on for the occasion by the pros
pective President OF Venezuela, and
bearing midway from the top a gold
This magnificent instrument is not
more magnificent than the treaty which
it was used to sign. The text of this
treaty shows that it is in substantial
accord with the reports previously pub
lished. The arbitrator are to be Lord
Herschell and Sir Richard Collins on
the part of Great Britain, and Chief
Justice Fuller and Justice Brewer of
the United States Supreme court on the
part of Venezuela, with a fifth to be
chosen by them, or if they fail to
choose one, then by the King of Sweden
and Norway. They are to meet in
Paris, or at such other place as they
may choose, hear all arguments ad-
vanced on either side, and make de-
cision in writing within three months
thereafter If practicable. Occupation
for fifty years, either by settlement or
by the exercise of political control,
makes good title. All else is left to the
| Judgment of the arbitrators.

that he and his war scare were really

Up-tO-date GrOcers.

"What's the matter with the gro
cers?" said a prominent physician to
the writer recently. 81 send my pa
TENTS after Seal Boefgrain and they
do not have it."
"Did they try Fu1lerton's Boston
Grocery" we asked. ''They will find
it there, also at d. S. Cooper's Coe &
Fields; S. S. Adams; E. E. Nichols,
all on State Street, near Court" These
are up-to-date grocers. They were wise
enough to look into this wonderful
food when their attention was called
to it, and now the people are going to
them for it. OF course, they buy other
goods of grocers, as business-like as
these, and they are wise too, for such
grocers are as wide awake in other
matters. They are always on the look
out for the best interests of their pa
irons. If you want anything, ask for if
| if You do not see it and if they haven't
it, they will get it, and get it quick.

FESTIVITY IN ALASKA.

A Dance That Men Travelled Far to
Attend Informal But Memorable
How the Invitations Were Sent Long
in Advance-The Function and Its
Peculiarities- A Matter of History
Now.
On the 10th day of December 1895
feet-footed Indians-Aleuts, Klinkats
and Siwashes-left the little village Of
Odiak, on Prince William Sound, Alas
ka, upon most unique mission. They
were messengers, sent out on foot, ir
the depth of an Alaskan winter, tt
travel hundreds of miles over trackless
wastes of snow, to say to hunters ant
trappers:
ugh! Heap big dance at Eyak heal
soon. Come ont"
For there was to be a Christmas-evt
celebration at Odiak, which was to tak'
the form of a dance, and the bold whit,

which debouch in a general way from

SNAIL FRENCH FAMILIES.

Large families have not been consid-
cred the thing in France lately. One
Of the most successful jokes on the
French stage consists of an English
man and his wife followed by a long
and tapering string of children. But it
is beginning to be perceived in France
that there can be too few children.
The latest census has revealed the I'M
pleasant fact that there has been for a
series of years a considerable falling
off in the birth rate Statisticians have
alarmed the French public by proving
that their annual loss of population
EQUALS that of the battle of Sedan. A
national alliance has been organized
to change all this, and to popularize
the idea of large families. This asso-
citation recently gave to the prime min
lister petition for the adoption of GER
tain drastic measures, which include
some interesting features. 1t proposes
that government scholarships in
schools, lycees and academies be given
only to families having at least three
children living; all favors of govern
ment, such as tobacconists' licenses,
concessions in colonies, etc, to be CIV
en- to such families; when the claims
of government officials for promotion
are decided their number of children
to be taken into account, allowances
and travelling expenses to officials, as
well as the salaries of subalterns, to
be regulated according to the number
Of children; the posts under the gov
eminent, except those requiring spe-
cial qualifications, to be given only to
| fathers having more than three chill
| dren.
| Already something has been done to
encourage large families. Fer instance
every seventh child may be educated
and boarded at school at the expense
of the nation. This law was passed
some years ago, but no results are ap-
parent.
The new republic isn't what it ought
to be- 1t hasn't been found necessary
yet in this republic to hire people tc
have larger families.

murderer: Cunningham is 20 years Of

Wyoming as a cowboy and the man
whom he killed was also on the range.
The trouble between the two arose
