Yawning Earth Causes Ruin.

Scranton, Pa, Feb. 26.-One
of the most extensive cave-ins
that the northern anthracite coal
regions have ever experienced
occurred in West Scranton early
today. 1t was caused by the set
tling of the surface over a vein of
the Bellevue collery. The cave
in has affected an area Of about
40 acres. Several houses have
been wrecked and many families
have hurriedly removed their
household goods to places of safe
ty.
When the first break occurred
shOatly after midnight the res
idents became pane stricken and
rushed from their houses. There
are about 200 houses in the dis
trict affected. Some are COM
pletely wrecked, others are out
of plumb, while nearly every
house in the territory is twisted
so the doors and windows can
not be opened.

Such Results to be Feared.

st. Petersburg, Feb % 1.-THE
war will end in August or Sep
tember, in the complete defeat
of the Japanese" said to the
Associated Press, high authori-
ty in intimate touch with the
Russian war plans, whose opinion
can be taken faithfully to reflect
the belief in the highest official
quarters. He added:
"How the japanese can hope
to succeed when our army in the
East is strengthened to a point
equal or superior in numbers to
that of our adversaries we are
honestly unable to comprehend.
1t will not be difficult to place
two, four or even six hundred
thousand additional men in the
field, if necessary. When our
forces are concentrated, and
ready they will finish by driving
the Japanese into the sea.
Frankly, it seems to US that the
Japanese either have utterly
failed to appreciate Russia's re.
sources, or have counted on the
aid of Great Britain or the United
States, neither of which ever
contemplated becoming involved.
So far as Great Britain is con-
cerned we do not believe any
hallucination existed there. We
think the British statesmen who
did so much to push Japan into
war, realized that with Japan's
defeat they would accomplish
two things for Great Britain
first, to give Russia a Icheck, for
of course, the war must impede
eur progress temporarily; second,
to cripple Japan's maritime pow
er, which was beginning to be
greatlp felt in the Pacific"
1t can be said with the utmost
positiveness that Russia will bide
her time. She will act on the
defensive until she feels confident
that her weight of numbers will
leave no doubt as 10 the result.
Reinforcements are going forward
at the rate of 5000 per day.
Probably some time will elapse
before Russia feels fully prepared
to assume the offensive.

Idaho Gas-snae Court Decision Regard
ing Water Rights.

"a decision rendered by the supreme
court of Idaho several days ago is
one of interest to all persons who
use water for irrigation obtained from
a ditch or canal owned by others than
themselves. In the opinion of the
court such users Of water acquire a
property right that they may trans
fer to other lands under the same
ditch or canal The court also held
further, ruling that the users may
transfer and sell the right to use such
water and the purchaser may trans
fer it to other lands under the same
ditch or canal, so long as the change
on place does not interfere with the
rights of others
The decision, which is regarded as
Of exceptional Importance TO water
users, was rendered in the case Of
w. r. Hard, appellant, VS.. the Boise
City Irrigation and Land company,
owner Of what Id known as the Riden-
baugh ditch. AS originally brought
the action was to compel the company
to divert one and three-ffths second
feet of water from the ditch from
q ranch several miles west Of the
city of Boise and deliver it at another
tract Of land under the ditch, but fir
thar away. Hard had bought the
first ranch, together with tho water
rights, and sought to have the water
diverted to another owned by him,
but nearer to The source Of the ditch.
The demand for the transfer of the
water was made by Hard April IA,
1908, when he rendered the ditch com
pany $l20 rental money for the irri-
eating season OF th8t year The com
pany declined the make the transfer
and Hard made application to the
district cours for the issue OF a pe1naa-
nent writ Of mandate requiring the
company to deliver the amount Of
water asked for and also demanded.
Judgment for 5000 damages and costs.
Counsel for the dltch company I'M
| terposed what in effect was q general
demurrer to the complaint, which de-
murrer was sustained by the court.
Hard declined to amend his complaint
or further plead and judgment of dis
missal was entered.
The appeal to the supreme court
was from the judgment thus. entered.
