are located near Logan are all good
quiet citizens apparently, and are not
looking for trouble as was frequently
the case when the first railroads were
built. Most of the men here have their
wives and families with them and all
the little tent settlements have the ap-
pesrance of small towns, children be-
ing quite numerous.

Blair Courier: The ball game be-
tween the High school nine and 9
team from Mo. Valley last Saturday
afternoon at the fair grounds proved
to be very interesting game for
lovers of that sport and wound up in
favor of the home team by score of
10 to "a. A number of tickets were
sold at ten cents each before the game,
but owing to the threatening weather
the crowd of spectators was quite lin
tied, being composed mostly of small
boys and several young ladies'. During
the first four innings the game looked
very dubious for our boys, but
whether it was the appearance of the
writer on the scene or the thought of
being defeated on the home grounds
our boys started in with renewed vi
gor at this point and run in live scores
which put them one ahead of their op.
ponents. Missouri Valley at this time
changed pitchers and the way our
boys got onto his curves and lifted the
little sphere out over the feeders was q
caution to behold and at the end of
the ninth inning the game come to a
stop with the above score. The Mis-
souri, Valley boys are q gsntlemanly
set of young men and should they ever
visit our city again they will receive 9
royal welcome from from our boys.

of water is something enormous, and
water companies and city boards of
public works are wondering what they
are going to do about it. A few years
ago figures We're presented showing
the per capita daily consumption Of
water in II leading cities of this coun
try. Buffalo led with PIT gallons;
Philadelphia came next with 143 gal
Ions. Then these followed in the order
named: Detroit. 40; Chicago, 13l;
Brooklyn. 100; New York and Boston
each 80; st. Louis, IS; indianapolis, a.;
Providence. 60, and Rochester, As. 1t Is
now estimated that in all these cities
the per capita consumption is greater
than it was then. OF course, TINS
means better sewer service, more pain
rooms, etc, but it also means a great
and unnecessary waste. In how many
bathrooms and kitchen sinks the
faucets are kept constantly and need
lessly running. The water privileges
of these cities are abundant, to be sure,
but waste is always to be deprecated
and it means an added expense to the
water companies and municipalities
with no proportional increase in
revenue
