CITY HARD PUT FOR WATER
Situation at Nebraska City Grows Worse
Instead Of Better.
STARCH COMPANY PUMPS STARTED UP
Help out some, but Unable 10 Give
Full supply, As only n Three
Inch Main Runs to the
Plant.

NEBRASKA CITY, Neb., Dec. 12.-(Spe-
cial Telegram.)-The water situation in this
city. assumed a very serious aspect this
morning, and at this time there is not
water for any purpose furnished by the
water company.
Manager Carver has a large force at
work and with the assistance OF the Argo
Starch plant IL was expected the mains
would be filled by evening. The engines at
the starch plant have a capacity OF 500, 900
gallons.
The starch works people will pump the
water from the starch works into the water
mains and the water company will then
furnish pressure. The river is almost dry
where the large ice fields Of last season
were located.
Chief Bauer Of the ere department has
had the old steam FIRE engine repaired and
ready to pump water from the city cisters
in case OF FIRE.
The water situation in this city is but lit
tie better than at noon today. The Argo
Starch works began pumping into the city
mains at 8 o'clock this afternoon and the
water company will then force the water
uptown. AS they have but a three-inch
stream to fill a ten-iuch pipe 1t is hardly
expected that water will be available until
late tonight.
Mayor Bartling today wired the ofhcials
OF the company that immediate relief wal
necessary and received word that officials
OF the company will be in this city Monday,
until which time Manager Carver is ex-
pected to furnish a temporary supply in
connection with the Argo Starch company.
1t has been showing here all day. but the
temperature is warm and no suffering is
expected tonight in places using a system
of water heat. The river has left the water
suction pipes high and dry. Small chan.
neis OF the river we're damned and furn.
ished a partial supply of water until this
morning. About 5000 feet OF pipe will be
required to give a full supply again.
The water pressure is now fair and
reaches Eighth street. The pressure is suf-
fcient to meet all needs tonight and nc
danger in case Of fire is now expected.

that Is, an exchange Of the Kearney and
the Peru institutions. he calls attention
to the distance, lack OF railroad facilities
and the expense In reaching Peru as OBJ
stacles to a large attendance OF students
there.
OF the normal school he said: ""The chief
mission of the normal school is to pre-
pare teachers for the rural or country
schools and for the grades In town and
city schools. 1t is the duty of the state
superintendent to give special attention to
the rural schools. It comes with poor
