Water Works for Dillon.

Especial to Inter Mountaino
Dillon, Sept. AT the last meeting
of the city council an interesting COM
munication from Mayor White urging
the installing of a water works system
in Dillon was read. I>hs mayor called
attention to the defenseiess condition
of the city regarding IRE pr.,,actlon and
the danger to the health of thu inhab-
itants of the town from the poilulion of
the present water supply, which is OBJ
tanned from wells. He reviewed the
sources from which probable supply
of water could be obtained and was OF
the opinion that pumping system
would prove the most feasible means OF
furnishing water supply within the
means of the city, or its property ho.o-
ers Such system, he averred, could
be installed for less than $4,000. and II
would provide ample fire protection ana
insure a plentitude of water 70, all do
nestle purposes for many. years TO
co,,e. The matter of a gravity system
was discussed at SONS length. Ihe
town is unfortunately situated IN the
matter of elevation and there is no hooy
of water within easy reaching Instance
which has an elevation suHclent 10
cover the city. The Idea OF bringing
water from Argenta lakes has been dis
cussed in the past. Inc plan Us to
pine the water from the lakes to the
bluffs west of town, a distance of four
teen miles, and store it in reservoir
from where it could be distributed. Such
a system would cost in the neighbour
hood of $4,000 at a conservative estim-
ate. and that sum is beyond the means
of the city to afford. The councilmen
heartily concurred in the mayors rec
ommendation.

Coming Towers Unnecessary.

Notwithstanding the assertion that
Fighting Bob" Evans found the coming
tower the most desirable place from
which to direct the movements of the
battleship Iowa during the battle of
Santiago. a majority of the naval board
of construction favors the total aboli-
ton of the coming tower on naval ves-
sells.
The coming tower is a survival of the
old idea of protecting every man and
each part of the ship as much as posi-
BILE. This idea has been greatly modified
as experience has been gained and the
navy has grown. The battle of Ma
Mia and Santiago demonstrated that a
position within the coming tower linn
tied the commanders radius of obser-
walton and really abridged his command.
After few minutes of firing the smoke
shut off from the commanders vision
both the enemy and his own ship, the
degree varying with the location and the
construction of the coming tower
The tendency of late years has been to
tighten the armor protection for the
guns and this is founded on the changed
conditions of naval warfare. Experts
declare that the sea battles of the fu-
ture will be short and sharp, in an in
creasing ratio The fleet which serves
it's guns the NEST quickly. which es-
tablishes and maintains for a time and
with the most telling effect an impene-
trable moving wall of projectiles. will
secure the victor.'. In other words, the
hull of the vessel has been reduced to
a mere gun battery. Under sucn con-
ditions some one is sure to get killed
and the selection is likely to depend
largely on chance.
The reasons urged for the abolition OF
the coming tower are that 1t will re-
duce the totau.weight Of the ship ma
terially; it will give more space for
the armament and viii tend toward in
creas.ng the rapiGity of supplying ammu-
milton to the guns. - Chicago News.

commissary sergeant at Fort keogh,
committed suicide by shooting himself
at his quarters. His dead body was first
discovered by Lieutenant FOy and q
teamster. who. noting his absence. went
to look him up. The door was locked
and they entered by the window On the
bed lay Jamieson's body with staring
eyes and gaping mouth. Under the
blanket. which probably muffied the
sound of the shot, Smith & Wesson re-
volver was found. with the muzzle at
his heart and his thumb on the trigger.
A letter to George Cahoe. wheelwright
at the post. bequeathed to him the dead
mans effects and requested that he be
buried by the Masens. He was men,
