A swindler Locked Up.

A clever swindler, from all appear
ances. was taken in charge by the po-
lice yesterday. The arrest was made
by Mr.. Fender on warrant sworn
out by Mrs. Clancy. who charged him
with obtaining goods under false pre-
lenses. The man gives the name of
James Fields, and was rooming at
Mrs. Claney's lodging house ON TWEEN
ty-fifth street. The man represented
that he was an employee of the Rio
Grande Western, which he was not.
Since his arrest it has developed that
he has duped a good many Ogden
firms in the same manner. He got nu-
merous livery rigs, ordering them by
telephone, and then sending them back
by a boy. He worked this game once
on Peterson of the Wasatch stables,
and tried to work itlagain, and then he
wished he hadn't, for Peterson said the
rig could not be delivered by boy,
and the man would have to come af-
ter it. When he arrived there was a
brief but stormy interview, which
ended in Fields leaving wheel as
security. The Whee1,-it seems, had not
been iaid for. He would go to some
firm and pretend to be a railroad en-
ployee, giving the name of a man who
was a real employee but who was I'M
known to the firm. A telephone mes
sage to the railroad office would show
that such a man was on their pay roll
and suspicion would be disarmed.

Randolph Frandson was awake most
all the time. taking care of the water.
Next day he had been looking after the
water for some time when he became
tired, so he laid down on the bank of
the Richfeld canal and was soon
asleep. He was lying on his back when
he was awakened by a weight on his
stomach, and looking up was Mortified

THE WATER FAMINE.
Homer. AacCarty of Monroe has been
well acquainted With the mountains
and creeks of Sewer county Tor many
years. He is a civil engineer and sur
Veyor and has measured the flow of
the river and lis tributaries at various
seasons OF the year After mentioning
the fact that the ranchers on the va
Tious creeks had appropriated most all
of the water during the last ten years.
Mr.. McCarty went on Ten years ego
Sewer county was supposed TO be fully
settled. but there was not over half
the land under cultivation then that
there is now. Then, however, all of
these creeks used to run into the river
but Deer Greek is the only one that
does now. While we have gone con-
tinually adding TO our acreage each
year, Panguitch valley farmers have
been doing the same thing. They have
been reserVoiring in Panguitch lake
some, but they have taken the water
Of the river until none passes their
lower dam. Then Circleville Kingston
and Junction were far from having
the land under cultivation then that
they have now. These places all use
The water. and when we complain Of
injustice they speak of the increased
seepage. Yes, the seepage has in
creased and is about all We get.
Then there is another thing that is
diminishing our water supply. Saw
mills have been cutting sam timber
out of the mountains, thousands of rail-
road ties are being taken out each
month of the year. Large sheep herds
have been driven over the mountains,
trails are found every little way, and
these carry the snow water off, while

and other heritage that once protected
the earth from the suns rays and kept
the snow from melting SO fast is each
year eaten down flore than its growth
