Commissioners Meet.

A special session OF the county COM
missioners was held on Wednesday to
take action on the matter of dissolution
OF the Delhaven ditch district. The cit
liens OF that district had patitioned to
the board to call special election for
the people to vote the problem of turn
ing the old Kennewick ditch over to the
original owner and incorporators. The
petition was complied with and Septem-
Der "a was set as the date for holding
the election. The old Kennewick ditch
is known as the Yakima Irrigation Com
pany, with Frank Dudley, of Buffalo, as
its head. For various reasons the ditch
was abandoned four years ago and all
the land under it was bonded. 1t is the
intention to reorganize the company and
open the ditch by next spring.

4 BIG NEW STORE.
Otter Bros. VIII Begin To Move Into Their
New Quarters Next Week.

NeW uudTteTS NeNt Week.
Commencing next Monday Otter
Bros. will begin to move into their new
business home on Yakima avenue, east
of Second street. The building is now
about completed. The store room pro-
per will be finished by Saturday, but
the upper story will not be completed
for week or two yet, and some finish
ing touches remain to be made on
the outside before the contractor is
ready to turn the building finally over
to the owners. The building complete,
not including fixtures, cost $12, 800, and
81 800 were spent for fixtures. A. f.
Howard was the contractor. He began
the work last May and has carried it
through rapidly considering the length
of time he had at command. The Sec
ond story contains seven suites Of offices
and will have all the latest furnishings
and fixtures.
This will be one of the best and hand
soonest business houses in the
state, and will be filled with stock of
goods by the Otter brothers that will
cost between $4,000 and $4,000. The
firm will occupy the first floor only. 1t
covers space of 53x11O feet, and will
have about 275 feet of shelving and the
same amount of counter space. The
plan is to conduct department store in
certain lines. On the left hand side will
be the dress goods, underwear, hosiery
and notion department; and on the
right will be the shoe and gents furnish
ing department. A line of shelves and
counters run down the center of the
room surrounding the large supporting
pillars, and in front near the entrance
will be large circular glass counter and
joining it and running down each side
will be the regulation glass counters for
the display of goods.
To the rear of the room there is bal
cony reached by an easy flight OF stairs
which will be used for cloaks, suits, lace
curtains and drapery. Beneath the bal
cony on the left side are the ladies and
gentlemen's dressing rooms, and on the
right is large unpacking room. Just
in front OF the balcony in the center of
the floor is the Office on a raised plat
form. All the shelving work on the
adjustable plan, and those used for
dress goods are made into one piece So
feet long. For the present four big arc
lights will light the room, and as the
walls and fixtures will be painted white
brilliant effect will result when the
light is turned on. The display windows
are large and will give ample space for
the proper display OF goods. One win
is Sx20 feet and another Sxl2. 1t will
take week or more for the firm to get
things in proper running order in their
store. They will have 10 clerks assist
ing them from now on, and the usual
courteous treatment will be extended to
everybody who deals with them.

May Build Setting Pond.

There has been some talk of the Ronrd
Of Water Commissioners contemplating
the purchase of large tract of land On
the north side of Brandywinc creek wit!
the purpose Of building new reservoir.
President nctts Of the board and Com
missioner Pyle when asked about the
report declined to say anything.
For sometime the commissioners have
had in mind the establishment Of
large settling pond. in which hundreds
of gallons of water could be stored for
us" i'll case of an emergency. This idea
originated with the late president of the
beard. William II. Porter. and Mr.. Belts
and DIR. Pyle. who at that time with
MIR. Porter comprised the board, w,Ie
much impressed with the practicabli,y
of the plan.
The heavy drain upon the water sup
ply at times. especially during the hottest
period of the summer when the supply
is much lower than usual, was what
set Mr.. Porter to thinking about some
means Of providing for surplus water
supply. which could be drawn upon in
case Of extreme need. should such cxi-
gency arise. He communicated his
thoughts on the matter to his fellow
members and the question was talkts.
over at various meetings of the board.
Mr.. Porter's idea was to buy tract
Of land at some convenient place and
build basin with Il capacity of several
hundreds Of thousands gallons. When
he first spoke Of the matter the necessity
of n SptfIipp nOn1 %,
