IMPORTANT WATER DECISION.

lMHORlANI WaIEh DEO1S1CN.
Judge Thereon Stevens granted
temporary injunction at Ouray on
November 25th, in the case of Thom-
as Virden ct al VS., Charles Bowman
ct al. A case which has been udner
advisement from this county since the
adjournment of the October term of
the district court.
The decision is an important one
as it will have a material effecs upon
the water rights and bitches in the
county and district.
The plaintiffs. Thomas Virden and
d. +. Blair brought suit in October
| in the district court against Charles
Bowman. T. d. Bowman and w. P.
Hon singer to restrain the defendants
from interfering and diverting water
which the plaintiffs borrowed from
Farmer and son and other prior appro-
priators who take water from Kan
nah creek in this county. The plain
tiffs in their complaint claim the
right TO borrow water from prior ap.
propriators of said stream, at such

| the same stream and use the same.
| upon the theory that the defendants

| to the plaintiffs and that an upper ap-
| propriator could not, under the law.
loan his water when not using il. to
any one, unless it be the next appro-
priator. which the defendants claim
to be in this case.
The complaint which the plaintiffs
Virden and Blair filed in the district
court. was demurred to by the defend
ants and the question has been under
consideration by Judge Stevens since
adjournment of court, upon one point
only. as to whether person owning a
water right in stream had a right TO
loan the water right and the water
represented by it. to any other appro-
priator upon the stream.
Judge Stevens holds in his decision
that the water right is property
right absolutely. and that 1t has all
the incidents of other property He
holds that it may be sold, transferred
and assigned Independently of the land
upon which it is to be used, the same
as any other property may be trans
ferred, leased or loaned.
1t is understood that Judge Stevens
based his opinion in this matter to a
great extent, upon the decision made
bv Judge Vorhees at La Junta in a
similar case short time ago. How
ever. this may be. the decision is of
the greatest Importance to all water
consumer, in this water district. as it
allows the water represented by the
water right to be used by any person
taking the water from the same point |
on stream provided he gets the con-
sent of the owner to do so.
The plaintiffs in this suit were rep
resented by S. N. Wheeler and the
defendants by Jas. S. Carnahan. both
of whom filed extensive and elaborate
briefs with Judge Stevens. for consid-
Grafton, previous to his decision.
Judge Stevens over rules the de-
murrer of the defendants and orders
that a temporary injunction issue in
favor of the plaintiffs and against the
in accordance with the
prayer of the plaintiffs complaint.

KEEPS HER LUNCHEON HID.
1t from Public View Adopted by
the Business Girl.

The girl who does office or other
work downtown soon finds out that by
carrying her luncheon from home she
not only saves money, but gets much
more satisfactory snack about noon
time. At the same time she does not
care to have it known that she is car
rying a luncheon; therefore she de-
vises all Sorts of schemes for making
it appear that she is carrying any
thing under the sun except luncheon.
One faultlessly attired girl takes her
collars to be Numbered every day-at
least she carries a small square laun-
dry box each morning. 1t is never
wrapped in paper and is tied with
most prosaic cord. In contrast to this
is the exceptionally dainty parcel
which another girl carries. 1t might
contain a gift, so eXquisitely is it
wrapped. But it has exactly the shape
of two square slices of bread, with
perhaps a bit of meat between, says
the New York Herald.
a blonde with smart pompadour
is apparently planning to ruin her di-
gestion with a dainty box of bonbons.
But the box occasionally betrays its
owner by emitting faint odor of
cheese or gingerbread. The girl with
the demonstrating paint box would
never have been suspected if she had
not inadvertently opened it one day
to show a friend new and delicious
sort of wafer which she had discovered
at grocers. Equally innocent-look-
ing was the music rool which a de-
mure girl balanced carefully across
her knees, but the view through it was
obstructed midway by brown paper
parcel discovered only as she rose to
leave the car. Several girls carried
fancy silk or leather hand bags, which
they guarded carefully from being
crushed when the car became crowded.
"A young stenographer declares that
some of the chatelaine bags are lust
the right rize to slip a couple of sand
wiches into. But the most truly de-
ceptive lunch box know Of" she add
ed, belongs to a girl whose brother
is camera tiend. She has an emntv
camera box with the lens removed
10 all outside appearance it is truly a
camera as ever it was. She is the
envy of all the girls who know the
secret"
