Abilene's Generous Water Allowance
Sand Springs Flow Increasing

Abilene's Generous Water Allowance
Sand Springs Flow Increasing
For the Reflector.
On the 10Th day Of July, 1882 in
COMPANY with DR.. c. W. Brooks, we
visited Sand Springs. four miles west
of Abilene, for thu purpose OF messur'
ING the outflow nj waer, and t. de-
termire its availability as a source OF
supply for the city Of Abilene. On
examination ahd measurement we
found thar Cross section Of the dis
charge stream contained superficial
ares Of IA square inches or exactly
one square foot. BY the usual meth
DDS we found velocity Of current
sufficient to carry two cubic feet OF
water past given point in one sec-
ond of time. With this data as a
basis for computation we determined
the output at 1926, 900 gallons for a
day Of "a hours.
In 1891 the present system of water
works was constructed under the
supervision OF Mr.. Person, an emil
nent civil engineer Of New York city,
by whom the capacity Of the Fpring
was again measured. In this he was
assisted by Messrs. stambaugh and
Rogers as manipu'ators OF the stop
watch, to whom this duty was as
signed in Difference to their sporting
proclivities and because OF their large
experience and great skill in reading
seconds. The result OF this test
measurement was substantially a YER
-
ifcation Of our report in 1889
On the 3lst day of July, 1901, we
again visited the spring and pumping
station. In conversation with the
engineer in charge, Mr.. St. Peter, we
we're informed that during the excess
sively hot weather he was pumping
from 100000 to 100000 gallons OF
water per day. Being curious to
know how much surplus water was
running to waste we again measured
a cross section Of the waste channel
and found superficial area Of 70
SQUARE inches, or exactly one-half the
area revealed in 1889. Assuming
that velocity Of current is the same
now as then, it is evident that vol
ume OF water equal to one half the
discharge in 1889 is wasting into
the Smoky Hill river; or, in other
words, the city Of Abilene is consum-
ing ons-halt the capacity Of the spring
as determined in. 1891. But as the
volume OF discharge was considerably
increased by development in the con-
structon Of a 80 foot well around and
over the spring, it is probable that
the estimate OF 100000 gallons as re-
ported by the engineer in charge, is
more nearly the correct consumption.
This would give to the citizens OF
Abilene pro rata Of about 200 gal
Ions per capita for evary man, woman
and child in the city-certainly a
most generous allowance when we
consider that In many congested
cities 60 gallons is the maximum.
A popularity Of Sand Springs is its
uniformity Of flow. Neither excessive
rainfall nor protracled drouth seems
to affect it in The least. In this fea-
ture Of uuvarying flow and fxedness
Of purpose, like Caesar, it is constant
as the Northern star,
Great is Sand Springs!

CAN'T GUIDO BOYS
Leavenworth Kids Build Underground
Palace Near Skating Pond.

Leavenworth, Kan, Dec. 19.-The boys
who have frequented Hennessy's pond
for the last few days to spend their time
in skating have arranged matters 50 that
1t is not necessary to go home to warm
cold feet. During the summer a number
of the boys who sat on the bank Of the
pond en- the green grass got to talking Of
the fun they would have skating on that
pond when winter come 1t occurred to
one that the pleasure Of skating would
increase many fold if they did not find il
necessary to run home in order to thaw
out after an hour or so skating. He sug-
gested building a cave in the eastern bank
of the creek, which flowed by the side Of
the pond and his suggestion was promptly
acted upon. The boys now have a lerge
cave in which they keep a fire going and
when they tire of skating they creep into
the cave and there they lay around the
fire telling their experiences" until they
are ready to repair to the pond again
The entrance TO the cave is a long tun-
mel and it little awkward TO get through

COUNTIES MUST PAY
State Requires Full Tax, as There Is
No Conflict in Laws.


Topeka, kan, Dec. Is.-some Of the
county treasurers in the state. Il Is re-
ported, viii refuse TO pay into the state
treasury the full amount OF the taxes.
which become due IN January. on the
ground that their counties are entitled TO
credit for compromised taxes under the
law passed by the last legislature.
Since the enactment Of the law nearly
every county in the state has fled a bill
with Auditor OF State Geo. Z. Cole for
compromised taxes. which in some cases
run back for % or % years. Auditor Cole
has refused 10 credit any OF the claims.
which aggregate probably half a million
dollars. But one county-Finney-has
taken any definite action toward the coli
lection Of its claim. The state board Of
equalization levied tax Of 5000 for
state purposes in FGuney county The
county commissioners OF Flnney county
extended out 8. 200 on the tax rolls. and
informed the state officials that the re-
mainder would be offset by the compro-
missed taxes due the county from the
state. Attorney General GODDARD has the
Finney county matter IA hand. and Il Is
understood that he will force the commits
sioners OF that county 20 collect the re-
mainder Of the tax.
Auditor Cole based his action sor refus-
ing 20 credit any counties for conpro-
missed taxes on an opinion rendered by
Attorney General GODDARD. ar. GODDARD
held that the Law passed by the last leg
islature relative 70 compounded taxes

In speaking of the matter yesterday,
Superintendent Nelson said:
The Kansas teachers viii not go to
Kansas City 10 attend the Missouri State
association. They have no interest
Missouri They belong to Kansas and
they will stand by the Kansas associa-
ton. I don't know of a single teacher
who expects to go to Kansas City. The
reports from the eastern part of the
state are very encouraging. The Missouri
association, however, is holding out all
kinds of inducements. For instance, the
Kansas City papers state that one man
expects to bring four barrels Of apples
to the Kansas City meeting, presumably
as drawing card for the teachers. This
may appeal TO the teachers in Missouri,
but IT viii not appeal to the Kansas
teachers. We don't need to go away from
home to get apples. besides the Kansas
association will offer something better
than apples-we will give the teachers
a great intellectual feast in the form OF
one of the best programs in the history OF
the association

Young Lady at Carbonate Is Out In

Carbonate. Kan, Dec. 19.-Emma Pink
ernell. aged 10. mysteriously disappeared
Tuesday night.
Searching parties were out all night
and the hunt was continued far into the
country. NO trace of her could be found,
and the hunters had almost given up at
about nine o'clock yesterday, when the
local freight from the north came in.
One Of the trainmen had seen woman
lying BY the track about a mile north OF
town, and supposing her TO be dead. at
once gave the alarm. She was immedi-
ately brought to town and though still
alive. was unconscious and badly frozen.
She had remained out-all night and was
very lightly clothed. The mystery among
those who saw her last is, how she kept
alive. owing TO the intense cold. She had
been sick, and it is supposed her mind
was thus affected.
