favorably on the petition and recom-
mended that the city furnish water
for irrigating the park. This
brought out considerable discussion,
Chairman Wilson of the water COM

At this juncture Mayor Moore was
called out on professional call and
President Columbia took the chair.
Chairman Wilson of the water COM
mittee then made his report. and the
conditions as shown by him are alarm
ing. He said the committee had in
spected the pipe line and contrary to
rumor, not single leak was found.
But the intake dam needed cleaning
out. All the water was run ming in
to the pipe line when the committee
was on the ground but they were in
formed by the man who lives on the
city ranch that there were times in
the afternoon when the water was
highest that it ran over. This was
due to the clogging of the screen over
the intake, by leaves and sediment.
The committee hired man to clean
out the intake and build loose rock
dam few feet above the intake to
protect the screen from the rubbish.
Mr. Wilson also reported that reser-
voir No / must be cleaned out before
the water can be turned in again.

WycOff Catches a HOrse-Thief.

Last Sunday, a stranger driving
gray horse hitched to buggy stopped
at the home of Mr.. Reed, southwest OF
town, and took dinner He said ne was
on his way to point north of Kansas
City. In conversation with Mr.. Reed,
he offered to sell the horse Mr.. Reed
agreed to buy the horse provided the
man would give satisfactory evidence
that the horse belonged to him. This the
man failed to do, and he drove toward
Garnett. Reeds suspicion was aroused,
and he came to town and stated the
facts.
Sheriff Wvcoff relates the following:
About 2 D. M, he received telephone
message from Marshal Farris, telling
him to come down town, as there
might be cause for work in his line.
Wycofi said he was coming down town,
anyhow. On reaching the postoffice he
met MIR. Reed, who related what he
knew concerning the supposed horse
thief
Sheriff Wycoff Immediately ordered a
team, and. together with his under
sheriff, started in pursuit OF the fugitive,
and found the abandoned rig five miles
north of Garrett. The mans trail was
followed east to the railroad, where it
was abandoned by Wycoff, who secured
the property and returned with it 30
Garrett, and Immediately phoned and
telcgrarhed an officer at Richmond to
intercept the thief. At IL p. m, he re-
ceivcd phone message that the thief
was under arrest, and asking the sheriff
to come Immediately. He took the carly
morning passenger train. and had his
hand on the prisoner before daylight.
He paid all expenses and brought the
prisoner to Garrett on the noon train.
A great many little incidents might be
related, but these are the main points in
the matter.
