account of the hatred the Spanish peo-
pie bear the Casertes, they will never
suffer the princess Of the Asturias TO

loom up: The republic or the choice Of

choosing a new king the ruler of Por-

when supported by Great Britain. l.

streams which it must now divide with
the farmers of the foothills. AS the re-
suit of Investigations now being made,
it is expected that the government will
recommend the Utah lake project in the
near future, perhaps next year.
The problem of water supply in the
city of Salt Lake is very serious one,
and unless it can be solved within a
reasonably short time, the city's devel-
opment will be sadly interfered with,
and that at moment when it seems to
be entering on it's most wonderful period
of growth. The city at present uses it's
water supply to the full limit, and so
serious is the situation that lawns and
gardens are only allowed to use water
from the mains during one hour out of
each day. An addition of 10000 to the
population would. during a dry season,
almost bring on water famine. The
Utah lake project, therefore, Is very es-
sential to Salt Lake City.
The future of the city will hinge Joint
~ on agriculture and mining. The new
road which Senator Clark is building
from there to San Pedro, the ocean port
below Los Angeles, will open up to it
mines of great wealth. They are so rich
that prospectors hesitate to make esti-
mates. Iron, gold, silver, copper, coal

PRESENTED A FLAG
UNIQUE OCCASION AT CATHOLIC
 BOYS SCHOOL.
Hibernians Teach Patriotism to Young America and Rabbi Messing, Mir. cIntyre and
 Father Savage Spoke.

''Old Glory" waves from the flagstaff on top of the Catholic Boys School build ing at the corner of Adams and McDon- ough Streets and such patriotic scenes in the school building were never seen until the big flag bearing the stars and stripes was presented to the school yesterday by the Montgomery division of the Ancient Order of Hibernians.
 The ceremonies which accompanied the presentation of the flag were short. oc- cupying barely an hour, but they were full of interest.
 Immediately after the 8 o'clock mass at St. Peters Church yesterday morning. the school boys and the Hibernians marched to the school building and the program arranged for the occasion was begun.
 C.. P. Mcintyre, a prominent member of the Ancient Order of Hibernians, pre- sented the flag from his society to the school in a short but patriotic speech. He spoke of the loyalty of the Irish race t othe country of their adoption and pointed out instances of this well known fact
 The flag was then raised to the flag stan and its folds were given to the wind while the school boys sang "The Star Spangled Banner" The singing by the boys was done with melody seldom heard in singing body of school children and showed excellent training on the part of their teachers.
 Rabbi A. J. Messing next addressed the meeting on the subject of the day. His TeTndrkS were greatly enJOyeu ana had Tn the opinion of his hearers only one defect -brevity.
 Rev. Father Dennis Savage, in the name of the school, made a brief speech accepting the flag for the school and thanking the donors for their gift-a use- full and an intructive one.
 The school boys closed the program of the exercises with the song America" ," after which light refreshments were served in the reception room of the school by the ladies present, for the Sisters.
