Last Night,
WIRES GET CROSSED.

a young man by the name of Wick.
nam received shock from live elec
trio pole at the corner of North Fourth
street and Fruit avenue which put him
TO the bad for little while.
The young man was returning from
work at the Santa Fe shops, about
$3.50 O'Clock. AS he passed the pole
ne reached out to take hold of a stone
which was lying on top of the small
iron pulley wheel which is used to
raise and lower the electric light. He
had no sooner touched the stone than
he received a shock which knocked
him down and stunned him so that
he was unable ia get up.
His cries were heard by Charles
kuntz, who lives on the opposite cor.
ner. He picked the young fellow up
and after little time he was able to
go home unassisted Mr.. Kuntz tele-
phoned to the Electric Light companv
telling them of the charged pole. A
man was sent up who found that the
wires had been left crossed by the
men who had been working there dur
Ing the day, stringing wires for the
new light which is to be placed on the
corner.
The full current was passing through
the pole, which rendered it very dan
gerous to pedestrians, who might have
come in contact with it.
People in general, in stopping on a
corner or elsewhere, are accustomed
TO leaning against any nearby pole.

ACEQU|A TROUBLES.
The Old City Ditch Ovsrf|owed lasi
Night
DAMAGE TO PROPERTY.

The water that is supposed to flow
| quietly through the city in the historic
old ditch overfowed it's banks last
night and many back yard was filled
with the water which should have
been in the Highland ditch. The over
flow was caused by couple of bitches
north of the city bursting and letting
all the water into the city ditch.
At the First street crossing the
water flooded all the adjacent prop
erty. There was lake filled with
| floating wagons in the rear of Tony
Ortizs wagon factory this morning.
The property adjoining the acequia be-
| tween Lead and Huning avenues is
covered by water; which begun to flow
| over the banks at about z o'clock last
night, Considerable damage has been
done to the property owned by Richard
b. Myers, between Coal and Huning
| avenues, especially to the new brick
house he is building. The house is
surrounded by water. which is liable
TO cause 1t to sink and result In much
damage.
As soon as Mr., Myers saw that the
acequia was overfowing he sent for
the street commissioner, who arrived
on the flood scene with some men and
began building dam to keep the
water in a straight course. No sooner
had the dam been constructed than
Mr.. Stamm came out with a hoe and
broke the dam, allowing the water to
flow on Mr.. Myers property. The
acequia runs through Mr.. Stamm's
property and it is supposed he had all
the water he wanted All the back
yards between Coal and Huning ave.
nues are covered with water, the re-
suit of the opening of the dam.
There We're some strenuous mo-
ments between the property owners
last night and even this morning. Mr..
Myers claims that the chances are his
new brick house will be ruined and If
1t is, there is liable to Je some trouble.
The property between Lead and Coal
avenues on the west side of the ditch
Is covered by water, and in some
places it is standing around the
houses.
There will probably be Injunction !
proceedings against the people who
nave charge of the ditch north of the
city for not looking after it more care |
fuily. The water has dropped about a
foot since this morning, but in many
OF the flooded parts the water will re.
main until it is soaked up by the hard
soil or eyaporates.

busy last night attending to the trouble

THE IRISH LAND
PURCHASEBHL
Severe Railroad Accident is,
State Of Illinois.
President Roosevelt win Do No Hunting on
His Western Trip.

London. March 27-The text of the
introduced in the house of commons
by the Irish secretary, Mr.. Wyndham
on Wednesday last, is given out. 1t oc-
cupies thirty-nine pages of parliament
airy paper and bristles with technical
tiles. The full wording reveals many
important features which were not
mentioned in Mr.. Wyndham's speech
when the bill was introduced. All ar
rears of rate due at the time of the
purchase of land are recoverable by
the land commission and not the ar
rears for year only as previously
'cabled. The land commissioners, how
ever, are given power in special cases
to remit part or the whole of the ar
rears. The commissioners are not per-
mitted to purchase estates which are
not mainly agricultural or pastoral.
Thus Killarney is exempt under this
clause. In cases of untenanted estates
purchased by the commissioners they
are empowered to execute the neces-
sary works of improvement which tre-
menduously enlarges the scope of the
commissions expenditures. The COM
mission is empowered to declare sub
tenants to be the tenants of any hold
ing by them which will vastly benefit
hundreds. Fishing, hunting and min
eral rights, which are among the most
controversial, will be vested in the
commissioners when an estate is pur.
chased and can be disposed Of as the
commissioners decide. The commits
sioners are also empowered to deter.
mine boundary and other disputes be-
tween the proprietors of holdings un'
der the bill. The commission has the
first claim to purchase bankrupt es
tates and can resell them to tenants OIL
use portions of them for the repatria
tion of evicted tenants. The latter
point is regarded as being one of the
most vital features of the bill.
