1.-THE MARRIAGE OF
KITTY" TUESDAY NIGHT

Jules Murrys excellent company,
headed by that clever artistic and en-
tertainer, Miss Alice Johnson, is
scheduled for appearance in this city
presenting The Marriage Of Kitty"
at the Elks opera house on Tuesday,
Dec. 5. 1t is refreshing to chronicle
the coming of such play and com
pany as to attend such performance
is well calculated to make one forget
all the troables of a bad day. 1t is
a wholly commendable performance,
never marred by single deficiency OF
detail or performer, fact for folks
who like what is best and cleanest in
stage offerings and who love the hearty
laugh that springs from real satire,
wit. clean humor and repartee.

GOGaLION CLUB ENTERTAINMENT
WAS LARGELY ATTENDED

Fully 200 people attended the dance
given at the Elks opera house last
night by the Gogalion club, and the
affair was considered great success
both socially and financially. The
receipts were even larger than the
members of the club had anticipated
and the prospects are that there will
be something left after the expenses
are paid for charity and for paying
rent for club house during the COM
ing year.
The reception committee consisted
of Messrs. William H. Pratt, Joe
Scotti and H. w. Maffett.
The best of music was furnished by
the Woodmen orchestra.
The Gogalion club is an organization
of young men who have banded them
selves together for pleasure and the
promotion of good Fellowship.

FEUD ON PRAIRIE
Cowboy Has Horse Shot Dead
Under Him

Deputy Sheriff Dave F. Camp went
to Cheyenne last Sunday to look up
shooting affray just over the line
in Weld county. He made no ar
rests, but as near as could be discov-
cred the story was like this:
A sort of feud has existed between
Jack O'Bovle and Tom O'Neill for
some time. O'Boyle has some stock
on the range and O'Neill, who owns
the old N. r. Davis ranch, has a
large pasture fenced, with plenty Of
water in the inclosure. On the
range there is no water. For this
reason O'Boyle would occasionally
let his stock into the fenced pasture.
Whenever any of O'Neill's cowboys
would find some of the other mans
stock in the pasture they would let
down the fence and drive them back
upon the range.
Last Saturday one of O'Neill's
men drove out a bunch of O'Boyle's S
stock. and while engaged in this oc-
cupation he heard shot fired a
short distance behind him. Looking
up toward slight knoll on the
prairie he saw O'Boyle and two or
three others upon horses there. He
rode along for few hundred yards
and then suddenly and without
warning, his horse dropped to the
ground and expired. A bullet hole
a couple of inches in front Of where
his own leg had been when the shot
was fired, told the tale. He says he
called to O'Boyle and asked him
why he did that. but received no re-
sponse. He then worked his way
around the knoll out of sight of the
group of men on the hill and then
did sprint that would have made a
Yale athlete look green with envy.
When the officer arrived there he
could not locate O'Boyle and came
hack home

TROUBLES UP
STATE ENGINEER HAS HARD
PROPOSITION COMING
All of Irrigation bitches Along
the St. Vrain River Will be
Affected by Engineers
Decision

According to reports from Denver
State Engineer Jaycox is up against
a hard proposition to settle In an
important water case affecting all
of the bitches along the st. Vrain.
A preliminary hearing was had in
Longmont few days ago.
The case is said to be one OF the
most farreaching ever presented TO
the state engineers office, as 1t in
wolves the distribution Of water to
IS or so irrigation bitches. 1t con-
sists of an appeal made by the High
land Ditch company from the orders
of the water commissioner of district
No. s, relative to the distribution of
water to the st. Vrain & Palmerton
ditch and the Rough g. Ready ditch.
The case reaches back into irriga-
tion history as far as 1883. heap
neal asks modification of some long
standing measurements which would
make quite change in the quantity
of water apportioned to many
bitches, The defendant companies
requested continuance OF the
hearing, claiming their notice had
been TOO short to allow adequate pre-
marathon. The Jurisdiction OF the
state engineer was also challenged
it being maintained that the pres
ont measurements have been In elect
Sc long that they are proper by righ1
of constant usage.
All of the bitches which may be
affected, are connected with the o'.
Vrain river and are In district NO.
s The original DEGREES adjudicated
the water rights of the district IN
what are known as customary "
inches. This was during the term
of f. S. Netuleton as state engineer
IN 1888, who said in his report;
'.The rights OF claimants 10 tihe u'.
., water. the order Of priority and
sucb claims, are established by de-
cree of court. Thre are I3 ditches
and canals in this district having py
decree A total appropriation of 50, 4s6
customary inches, or about 2'oso
cubic feet per second, the customary
inch being assumed equal to the
statutory inch, which is .O2t OF
cubic foot. To preserve uniformity
IN tabulation of the decree, the Gus
tomary inches have been reduced TO
cubic feet per second. -
In the year 1887, State Engineer
c,oe, considered that he had a right
to change the form Of measurement
The Greeley tribune., 1905-12-28

and issued another table, giving
measurements which were considered
indefinite, and there is apparently
no way of determining how he ar
rived at them. In his report, MIR.
Green said: ''By a customary .lch
seems to be meant one square inch
of the cross section of the ditch.
In the calculation to determine the
equivalent Of customary inches in
cubic feel pJr second, the form OF
cross section of the ditch had to be
assumed" The table measurements
fixed by Mr.. Green have been in use
since 1887.
State Engineer Jaycox is. now
asked to make still another change
in the measurements, and in support
of the request B. Merrill Holt, repre-
senting the Highland Ditch COM
pany, has offered the original report
of Referee Thomas r. Owen, jr.,
made to the court in 1882. This
report was only recently found by
accident and it is claimed that
neither Mr.. Nettleton or Mr.. Green
had it when their measurements
we're fixed. Portions of it explain
exactly how the original measure
ments were made, and the grade and
cross section were not considered as
at present. A portion Of the report
reads as follows:
SIN the matter of appropriations
of water by means of bitches l find
1T is impossible to adopt rule free
from objections by which to esti-
mate the amount of water actually
appropriated, and as the one freest
from objections, 1 adopted the fol-
lowing, towit: First find the capa-
city of the ditch, in order that the
amount claimed doesn't exceed the
capacity: then find the number Of
acres of land actually cultivated,
the nature of the sol and how many
inches of water per acre is required
TO irrigate said land. Multiply the
one quantity by the other and the
result will be the amount of water
actually appropriated.
Finding it impossible as we'll as
impracticable to estimate the capa-
city of a ditch in CUBIC feet from
the data given. l have adopted the
following universal and customary
rule, used altogether in this district,
towit: Multiply the average. width
of the ditch, reduced to inches, by
the average depth reduced to inches,
and the result will be the capacity
of the. ditch in customary inches,
regardless Of grade"
Mr.. Jaycox said yesterday he had
not looked into all the phases OF
the matter and is uncertain what
procedure will be taken. After the
hearing on Jan. 10, it is probable
some course Of action will be mapped
out.

1eIore uhat GATE only solitary cot
ton woods and scattered clumps of
willows marked their courses. To-
day their edges are jungle of plant
life, from the tiny switch of year
to 1.-THE limbed trees Of quarter of

sand Islands which scarcely caused a
ripple under the flood, now present
an armed barrier. New ones have
formed around the debris of weeds
against numerous wire fences or
other resting places. These tlaunt

The river beds have narrowed so
that even the residue of spring
rise unused by the many hungry
bitches, cannot escape without leav-
ing record of the highest water.
Three times since 1900 has the Oldest
settler acknowledged the Cache la
Poudre has elevated It's surface above
the marks of the past. Is it because
more water has fallen in the hills?
Even II that was so would not the
bitches more than carry the surplus?
There can be but one reason to
those having known it in the past
and know it now, and that is the
diminishing of the rivers bed.
Some time the channel will have
to be cleaned. If it is public pro-
perty then the county should clear

lustration: An island was born be-

trees grew there and caught sand
and sediment. The flood water In
anger at the growing .apparition, at
tempting. to pass, lifted up the
gravel from below and formed a
greater barrier. The water was
deepened above the bridge and flowed
across the grass land. Eastward a
bridge on the grade allows it to bore
frantic passage. Sometimes this
bridge is taken away, leaving use
less highway until such time-maybe
only few weeks later-when it can
be rebuilt.
Has the county right to prepare
a way for destruction to sweep across
the property of individuals? Is 1t
not laying the foundation.of future
law suits? Let our worthy ones in
authority look into this serious
problem of the rivers right.

that it claims the beet growers are
