SUIT OVER WATER.
Ontario Company Brings Action
Against Eighty-two Persons.

The Ontario Silver Mining company of
Park City filed an injunction suit in the
federal court yesterday against eighty
TWO defendants who are alleged TO be
using water that rightfully belongs to the
Ontario company.
The complaint alleges that the Ontario
company constructed an underground
tunnel to drain its mines and property
and that from this tunnel there issues
about 5000 gallons of water per minute
The company sets forth that one-third
OF that water belongs to them and that
they have been using il for good purposes,
persons residing in Summit county have
been unlawfully and without permission
using this water. The aplaintiff asks
that the defendants be enjoined to re-
frain from using the water and that they
be called into court so that the title to
the water may be cleared up and no
grounds be left for disputes as to usage
hereafter.

RESENT CHAPERONS,
One European Innovation That
American Girls Do Not Relish.
stringent Rules of United states Col
leges Make the Students Smart
with Indignation. Yet the
Chapcron Is Favored,

American girls as a rule resent the
chaperon. They declare they have no
need of such % guardian and will have
none of her. Furthermore, they de-
clare that her presence is an imputa-
tion upon their characters that is lit
tie short of insulting, says the Chi
cago Chronicle. The girl students Of
Smith college have taken the initia-
tive in protesting against the odiuus
presence. The powers that be at
that institution have lately ordained
that the services ~ chaperou shall
be called into requisition whenever
Algernon comes to pay court or an
Amherst student wants to vary the
monotony of Il Smith girls life by
taking her to the theater. No more
accidental little walks or coy little
lunches with incidental harmless
ilirtations in company with mere
man. lie is tabooed. except the ar
gus eye of the chaperon have him in
focus.
Some years ago the rules Of Smith
college were very stringent in re-
spcct to chaperonagc The girls
were not allowed to attend the the
ater except under the surveillance Of
teacher and were only allowed to
walk certain distances from the col
lege and ON certain streets. OF re-
cent years, however. rules and rcgu-
lationS have been done away with
and the girls have been made their
own mentors and given perfect free
dom. As a result they are highly in
dignant AT having their privilege
withdrawn. Whether the decision of
the faculty has been brought about
through any especial cause or is sim
ply the result Of gradual change ~
sentiment throughout the country
is not explained. but it is presumably
the latter. There has certainly been

America in favor Of the chaueron.
