The waterworks.

The Nogales Water Co. is rapidly getting their plant into working order for an unlimited supply of water. The reservoir above the pumping plant Is completed, all but laying some wall to even it up. The pit Is 25x20x65 feet and is sunk in solid porphyry, in which some soapstone occurs. It is 203 feet above the level of the railroad track at the big water tank, and it is expected that sufficient pressure will be obtained for all demands.
 The company has an 80 horse power boiler aud 5-inch Cameron pump. The boiler will supply steam to run three such pumps if necessity arise. The company begins laying the pipe to the reservoir this week.
 Arrangements are being made to drill for bedrock in view of putting in subterranean reservoir from which to supply the one on the hill. It IS expected that the new reservoir will be filled experimentally ext week.

On the night of the 4th inst., a party Ofseyen Mexicans were having good time in their way, and about midnight started for their homes in Nogalitos
 When nearly to their destination they sat down on a bridge to sing when a quarrel arose and Lusiano Flores, without a word of warning, pulled gun and fired two shots, one of which hit Abar Valenzuela in the shoulder, making bad flesh wound. The other bullet penetrated the body of Luis Valenzuela killing him.

Prof. /. q. White, of the State
University, is in Charleston. He has
in charge the Geological Survey,
which is being made by number of
engineering corps throughout the
State. Prof. White, however, is en-
route to points up Elk river aud from
there over to the Gauley river. for
the purpose of securing data for a
geological map, about to be published.
He is accompanied by Samuel d,
Brady, of Clarksburg who is also n
member of one of the engineering
corps, but who is now working on a
special detail. AT this time there is
one corps working near Hamlin, Lin
coin county, another near Wheeling
and a fourth near Moundsville. 1t will
require several years TO complete this
work, and will necessitate lots of
hard work.
Mr.. Brady, is gathering data for a
new coal map that is about to be is
sued by Prof. White. 1t is similar to,
but more complete than the oil and
coal map issued by him in 1898. The
new map will show the exact loca-
ton of every commercial coal mine in
the State rs well as all other infoI-
nation useful to coal men. The map
will be issued in August of this year.
AS soon as this is done, Prof. White
will begin the collection of data fof
the analysis of the coal in every mine
ia the State, This will be done by
Mr.. Brady, who will personally visit
each and every mine, cut out a sec
ton of the entire vein and send it to
the State chemist, Prof. Hite, at Nor
gantown, who will make an analysis
of the coal and all such information
will then be published in book form.
This will be the first book of the kind
to have been published by any State
and will be Of inestimable value to
the coal peoples 1t will require about
q year TO secure this data.

Now tn 1T the summer season is APP
preaching and with it the trouble
some and annoying mosquito, it Is o.
interest to learn that the old settlers
in certain parts of South America
find the castor oil tree an effective
preventative against the pests. lt
seems that the smell of the plant IS
disagreeable to mosquitoes, aud many
other insects as well, and 1t is ac-
knowledged that whore this plant is
found there are few mosquitoes.
Even the keeping ct seeds and
branches of this plant in room will
drive out these insects if there are
any present. Castor oil plants thrive
well in this latitude, attaining a CON-
siderable height in single season.
Another Southern method of pre-
venting MOSQUITOES from biting con-
sists in the liberal use of Kerosene
lalthough IT'S attendant fire hazard
should be carefully kept in mind The
Charlotte Medical Journal says "that
susp nding small flannel rag. wet
with kerosene, at an open window or
door. will keep mosquitoes out OF a

by the Governor Designafcs June goth
as "FIag ayr In West Virginia.
Governor White has issued the fol-
lowing. proclamation
On the fourteenth day of June. l777,
Congress- enacted "That the flag OF
the thirteen United States have
thirteen stripes alternating red and
white: that the union be thirteen
stars, white in blue field, represent
ing new constellation, Then was
our national flag adopted officially.
The coming 14th Of June being the
first anniversary in the twentieth cen
tury of this historic event, it seems to
many appropriate that the day should
be marked by some public observance.
Since 1918, when the act of June IA,
l777, was amended SO as to limit the
stripes to thirteen and the stars in the
blue field TO represent the number of
states admitted to the Union, our
country has expanded until there are
now forty-fve stars upon our flag,
representing that many sovereign
states. The flag of our country has
come to mean more than ever before
and is now the symbol of mighty
and free people.
Another event this month of pecu-
liar significance and Importance to the
citizens, of West virginia is the an
niversary of the birth of our state.
Since June 20, 1868, our state has
grown IN population and wealth until
in the new light of the twentieth cen
tuury West Virginia stands resplend-
emit in the galaxy of states, the leader
in the production of oil, gas and hard
woods, second in coke, and also vir-
tually second in coal production.
while its other interests are varied
and prosperous.

The West Virginia University is re

the eminent scholar and statesman
during his long life OF more than
eighty years 1t is a miscellaneous
library Of particular value fer re-
ference and consultation
The woman's College of Baltimore
and other institutions of learning
have made various attempts to secure
the Senator Wiley Library, but as
he and his children were warmly at
