NEW FIRE ALARM SYSTEM
PROVES ENTIRE FAILURE
SYREN WHISTLE COULD NOT BE MADE TO
WORK VERY SATISFACTORY.
Will 20 Back to the Bell System-Assess-
ment List Reported to Council Shows
Real Estate Valuation Sl,OS4,575

The proposed plans for new fire
alarm system by having a syren whls-
tie at the plant and a system of electric /
push buttons, bells and relays to notl-
fy the engineer, seems now to be
dead issue. Henry S. Anthony, chair
man of the Electric Light and Water
Committee, stated to the Town Coun-
ell in session last Friday evening that
the whistle would not work to the
satisfaction of the town, and that he
had boxed it up ready to send back to
the owner. 1t will be remembered
that the Fire department recommended
a better fire alarm service and in con-
junction with the Light and Water
Committee had about fixed on plans to
inaugurate number of push buttons
at convenient places about town con-
Meeting with the water plant. These
buttons when pushed would set off an
electric bell notifying the engineer to
give the general alarm with the syren
whistle and start the pumps to action.
This plan would have no doubt been
very feasible had the syren whistle
worked. as the Committee had wished.
The whistle sent here on trial was put
to every test possible, but the Powel
House being situated i'll the meadow
rear Lake Como, there was tendenc,
for the sound to follow the waite
courses and hence was insufficient t
meet requirements in the case c
emergency. 1t Is now about decide
taat the system above proposed WI
be abandoned and attention turne
toward improving the old plan whic
has been in vogue for many years
The fire bell at the Opera House WI
!. be raised triAe higher and the claT
Der so manipulated as to give Il
most satisfactory service. The o
method of running down to the Ope
E.ouse may now be in vogue for anoth
decade.

Cos. 5000, ,Ooos.

After many years Of hard continu-
ous labor the last coping stone of the
great dam at Assuan, Egypt, at the
first cataract of the Nile, has been laid
This wonderful aud gigantic work is
about 6,000 feet in length aud contains
l,on0,0) cubic yards Of masocry. 1t
has storage capacity OF Sl0O)O acre
feet of water, but before all Of the land
available for agriculture in Egypt can
be thoroughly reclaimed reservoir
system must be constructed which
will store about 2,S0,O0) acre feet
This Is the task that English control of
Egypt has undertaken to carry out.
The Assuan dam has cost Egypt about
9,D)n,O0Os, which is to be paid 10 sixty
semi annual installments of 3S2,S4 5
each. The money will be collected by
the government through additional
taxation based on he benefits derived
from the. soil of the Nile valley by the
use of the reservoir water 10 its irriga.
ton.
This great work was not undertaken
as measure of philanthropy but as a
plain business proposition. That is to
say, its cost, use and profits we're
figured out most carefully, and the
expected profit will pay y good, round
interest on the cost. How insignifi.
cant seems the biggest irrigation
scheme In America beside this great

Lynx Greek Tunnel.

Placards are posted in many places
of business in Prescott today advising
miners to keep away from the Lynx
Greek side of the Poland Hamilton
tunnel. That water is encountered in
disagreeable quantities aud that As per
day has been demanded aud refused.
The letter is signed by seventeen men,
all of whom have struck. A peculiar
feature of the issue is that of the sig
natures. one man being so illiterate
that he cannot write his own name
and substitutes cross instead.
Desiring to be better informed on
the questions at Issue than is given by
one sided proclamation, this paper
today was placed in communication
with tie affected center and is per.
mitted to give the the following ver-
sion of the strike: The seventeen men
who quit are divided into eight una
chine men and nine general laborers,
all OF whom work eight hours day
and receive 3.5ts per day in pay. The
assertion that water in diSagreeable
quantities interferes with the men is
not borne ont, no water whatever over
head being in evidence, while the as.
sertion that on foot it interferes with
the comfort of the men is not substan-
tiated eli her.
The men on the Big Bug ide of the
tunnel, some fifty five in number, and
performing the same hours of labor,
receiving the same rate of pay, and
working under similar conditions, re.
main At their posts dntifnl 10 their
present conditions and emphatically
refuse to either endorse or go ont in
sympathy, although they too are union
laborers. On the other hand it l. said
the tunnel men on the Big Bug side
agreed to fill the gap on the Lynx
Greek side.--Jonrnal Miner.
