Water, water. everywhere" is the
condition in this section Of Colorado
as regards the irrigation situation.
Farmers in the Arkansas valley are
certainly most fortunate this year and
according to statements Of Supefin-
tendent OF Irrigation Ed, z. Chew,
they have no cause to fear repetition
even in the slightest degree Of their
experience Of continued drouth of
last year. Superintendent Chew il
now In a position tO review the situa-
tion clearly and he feels very much
satisfied indeed with the prospects.
says the Pueblo Chieftain.
bitches throughout the district con-
trolled by Mr.. Chew are now full OF
water and those whose lands lie under
them have an abundance for all pur-
poses. The storms that prevailed
early In the season did a great deal OF
damage to the bitches, destroying
headgates and tearing out the banks,
but they have been repaired and are
now In pretty fair condition. All the
reservoirs throughout the valley are
now being filled with water. and Mr..
Chew believes that with the ditch
and reservoir supply combined. there
will not be the slightest shortage un.
til along about July, when all the
crops will be made anyhow and it will
make no difference.
The big reservoirs near Lamar are
nearly full.

SH0PLIFTING CHARGED.
Mrs. Joseph Visoley, of Blair Ave-
nue., and Her Father Placed I'm
der Arrest Last Night.

Mrs. Joseph Visoley, of Blair ave-
nue., North Scranton, and Adam Gar
ivius, her aged father were arrested
yesterday evening and taken to the
central police station, she accused Of
shop lifting and he of being accessory
to the act.
They were arrested by Detective
John Molr and Mounted officer Block.
On warrant issued by Alderman
John T. Howe. In the house were
found dress goods amounting to about
S400 in value, the majority of which
were recognized and identified by
Floor Walker Mcconnell, of the Globe
store. For some time past articles
have been missed from the Globe
store, and Mrs. Visoley, who has been
frequently seen about the place, has
been suspected. Yesterday afternoon
Mr.. Mcconnell notified Chief Roblng
and asked that the matter be probed
into. One of the facts that led to her
being suspected was that she was seen
wearing a lace collarette with an odd
beading on it, which had boen missed
from the store.
on Chief Robling's being notified, a
search warrant was sworn out before
Alderman John Howe, and armed with
this Detective Moir and officer Block
visited the house. They were admit
ted by Garivius, and from him re-
ceived the keys to the various closets
and rooms, all of which were locked.
The house was then searched and
was found to be literally filled with
stolen goods. Mrs. Visoley came home
q short while later and was arrested.
She had on her person at the time the
collarette in question and carried a
piece of silk goods and a pair of gem
tleman's socks, which latter articles
came from Goldsmith's bazaar.
She AMI her father were taken to
the police station, and Patrolman
Hockenberry was left at the house to
keep watch. On going through it he
found that an old woman had ocen
crouching in the cellar. She proved to
be Mrs. Garivius, but she escaped be-
fore the officer could arrest her. Mrs.
Visoley is a woman about 80 years of
age and has a 2-year-old child.
Among the articles found in the
house We're twelve silk shirt waists,
eight or nine pieces of silk, one piece
being identified by Mr.. Mcconnell and
valued at 500; six silk skirts, two fur
collarettes, one sealskin collarette, one
fine valise, valued at $l5; six boys
fancy vests, one large piece of cash
mere, fifty yards of ribbon, several
pairs of shears, one lace collarette
with bead trimming, a large number
of silk handkerchiefs. There is also a
large number of mits for very small
children and infants clothes. When
arrested the woman had in her posses
sion S4S.
The goods were all removed to the
central police station, and Chief Rob-
ling requests that representatives of
the various dry goods stores of the
city be present at headquarters at 10
o'clock this morning to examine the
goods, as it is thought that there
are articles in the collection from all
the dry goods stores of the city.
The man and woman will be given
a hearing before Alderman Howe this
morning.

CONSERVATORY CONCERT.
Excellent Performance of the
Younger Pupils Last Nieht.

There was another delightful piano
recital given last night by the pupils
of the Conservatory of Music, and in
some respects it eXcelled all the preVi-
Gus ones, in that the work of the
younger students was given consider
able prominence. Their mastery OF
difficulties and unmistakable knowl-
edge of the subject as far as their
studies had led were definitely proved.
Little maids like Miss Florence Peck,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. F. L. Peck,
gave pleasing selections with no evil
dence of nervousness or self-conscious-
ness. A tiny girl, Norma Johns, of
Taylor, played a bright little number
by Bohm, with promise of such tech
nique that no listener could fail to be
surprised
Miss Mary Flower, of Gouldsboro,
made striking impression with her
excellent work, as did also Misses Ida
Gessner, Grace Gerlock, Emma Bone
and Marion Hutchinson. The latter
young lady gave the Chopin NoCturne
in G Major, with much beauty of in
depreciation. Miss Louise Slocum, of
Carbondale, played Schumann's Papil-
Ions with excellent effect. Miss Clara
Browning rendered the last movement
of the Concerto in d Minor with in
telligence and brilliance of execution.
The ensemble, in which several of the
above mentioned students participated,
assisted by Miss Folansbee, Miss
Wagenhurst and Mr.. Wilkins, was ex-
ceptionally fine.
Philip Warren gave a most satsfac-
tory rendering of that always welcome
baritone solo, Handel's Honour and
Arms" and sang in good voice "The
Wolf" by Thomas.
