Better Late Than Never.

The Water Works Trustees ordered
several weeks ago nne large pump
for the purpose of giving the city bet
ter water service. This pump was to
have been done and in service by
March 1st in order to fulfill the con-
tract. This the manufacturers have
failed to do, but up to the present time
there has been very little need for any
thing larger than the old one, although
as soon as street sprlnkling becomes
general, the old pump cannot furnish
near enough water to go around.
A portion of the new pump is done,
however, and is now in the city, hav-
ing arrived Monday afternoon over the
G. e M. from Cleveland, where it is be-
ing constructed. The rest will COM
prise about eight car loads altogether
and will be shipped as fast as 1t can be
finished up.
The workmen have everything in
readiness at the pumping station for
the new machinery and the manufact
urers can go to work at once to place
it. It is expected that the new ma
chine will furnish water enough for
the city at present and for years to
come, even with good healthy
growth.

MORNING FIRE.
A Barn Consmed by Flames EARLY
This Morning,

Tie department was called out at 3
o'clock this morning to the scene of a
fire in a barn on Fourth street, which
belonged to Mr.. D. w. Dye. The barn
stood just back of Mr.. Dyes residence,
which fronts on Greene at the corner
of Fourth.
The alarm was turned al from box 25
at Tie corner of Fourth and Butler
streets. The department made a quick
response, quickly laid line of hose
and had stream playing on the
flames, which had nearly gotten be-
yond stopping in the building where
they started
BY the prompt work of the firemen
the flames were soon under control and
a stream was kept playing until all
danger of their doing any damage to
other buildings was past. The house
of Jacob Lauer, which stands just
above the barn on Fourth street, was
damaged some by the cracking of the
windows and peeling off the paint
The building which was burned was
not very valuable one, but some
young men had a club in it and their
furniture was destroyed.
How the fire originated is not known
There had been no meeting of the boys
in the club room Monday evening and
no fire about the building.

The city Jail is occupied by a man
named w, e. Baker, supposed to be
from Monroe county. His actions
were noticed as being somewhat irrat-
ional while he was at the st. Cloud ho

Sunday. The officers were notified
and Posey and Weyrich found him at
the upper end of Fourth street Sunday
evening. He will be held until some
thing can be determined as to what
shall be done with him.

viii be Lots of WiIdcatting.

There will be more wildcatting in
prospecting for oil in Morgan county
this summer than the county has ever
SEEN 1t will be chiefly on the east
side. We expect to see several test
wells go down all over the territory,
from the Muskingum river east to
Duck Creek. The Standard Oil Co. has
been taking levels and rock inclina-
tions with aview to selecting the most
desirable places for testing. Extensive
territories are under lease at Windsor,
Meigsville, Center, Morgan, Manches-
ter and Bristol townships, and it is
generally believed by oil men that
pools of great value may be found in
this area in some of the numerous
sands from the Berea upwards. West
ern Morgan has been a good deal more
extensively tested and is less likely to
receive attention now except in the
more shallow sands, which will be
bored all over the southern half of
western Morgan.-Morgan Co. Demo-
