REMARKABLE STORIES
ABOUT jEWELRY

Cr,e of the most romantic stories Of
stolen Jewels occurred with Fanny KEN
bic for heroine. An iInportunate Ameri-
can danced attendance upon her until
ON. day she t-ally and perempJorily
bade him begone. He gazed steedfastIy
al her for a moment, then, seeing that
she was really in earnest, he flung i
packet upon the table. Well he said.
you may at least take this and he
turned upon his heel and left the room
and she never saw him more. or course,
siEe opened the package-what woman
would not?
which as she had not the address or
the giver she had perfOrce to retain
but not for long. Some one besides her
self apDrccia ted its beauty and took il.
repine for its loss. Then she was stay
ing IN Italy and 10 her at Sorrento there
came a peddler who. quite by chance,
displayed before her his pack Of trivial
wares. There, among them, It's value all
unsupported. lay the lOng-lOst jewel,
with nothing to tell how II came into
the possession Of the hawker.
To match this story one must turn 10
the experience Of q Sussex clergy man y
ring which was an heirloom IN his fam
ily was stolen from his keepiI &.
Eighteen years passed and not word
was heard concerning the article Then
il turned up inside one Of the fingers
OF Il glove lost AT "a bazaar in New Zea-
land The finder had promoted the ba-
Zaar and was 4 relative or the owner
of the ring, and was the only person OF

The recent discussion of the water
supply of the District OF CoIumDla
makes interesting Il number OF features
in the work at the office Of the Wash
ington Aoueduet and the seeker after
the curious finds strange things In the
figures that are shown in the report oA
Col. S. s. Leach. in charge OF the aque-
duct, concerning the consumption Oh
water in the District of Columbia Tor
the past twenty-fOur months Ihese
f4a,nres give the average amount OF wa
ter consumed daily from June. 1908, to
June, 1895. inclusive. and tell stories not
known to the general public
For instance, in February OF the cur
rent year the average daily consump-
ton of water exceeded that OF any otn
er month in the twenty-four. rms was
due TO the fact that cold weather pre-
vailed in that month and caused house
holders to open the spigots of their
water pipes TO prevent freezing, The
daily average for the month was 1o3,-
600, 000 gallons, while the month that
showed the lowest daily average was
November, 1903, IN which there We're but
81 625 6S6 gallons consumed daily.
Perhaps the most striking feature OF
the figures COMPLIED at the aqueduct Of
fee. however. are those which relate
to the consumption of water during GER
tain hours of the day or night The
reservoir is examined hourly always, and
by experience and fixed tables. worked
out to several decimal places, the ex-
perts are able to form definite esti-
mates In all cases. This adds value to
their figures, and interest TO the strange
stories they sometimes tell.
Hour of Greatest Consumption.
The annual reoort for 1904 shows in
the tables giving the hourly flow from
the Georgetown distributing reservoir, on
June 22-2S Of last year, that the greatest
! consumption and waste occurred be
/ tween / 10 > D m. when 3.197,245 gal
| Ions passed out of the Reservoir. The
smallest consumption for any one hour
/ in the twenty-four occurred between
/ and I q. m, when 217l, ,904 gallons passed
out.
| And Yet. between the hours Of l a.
m. and a. m. when everybody Is sup
posed to be in bed. the figures show
T that ? 450. SOC gallons We're consumed
/ which amount seems none too far re
moved from the maximum hourly con
| sumption, considering the difference II
| the hours at which they We're recorded
What is the cause of the consumption
of so much water at these late hours. tn
statisticians are unable to say. They Civ
the question up as one of those unex
pIainabIe mysteries that are Away
found IN cities.

Told on a Celt.
The same policeman told the following
about an Irlshman charged with stealing
some goods: Two witnesses had just
testified that they had seen Pat take the
goods. and the judge was about 10 pass
sentence, when Pat spoke up; And II
is upon the oaths of them two witnesses

Bridge Briefs.

DR.. Fly speaks out loud and
strong for a bridge across the Can
adian. Says he is tired of wading or
swimming, and it is such long
way round.
Will A. Miller says he has placed
more than twenty settlers on the
L. X. lands north of the Canadian
river this fall who will come to
Amarillo to trade if navigation is
made safe and sure. Lets have
that bridge.
Col. Boyce advised he has dur
ing the past twenty years gone
to the river and couldn't get
across, and that a bridge over
the Canadian river is worth more
to Potter county than a new rail
road.
Mr., Stringfellow suggested that
so many things can be had in Am
arillo that are not furnished in the
smaller towns north, and that much
wholesale and retail business will
be directed to Amarillo if a bridge
be built across the Canadian.
