Helena, Mont, May 12.-Rimini, small min
ing camp about ten miles south of Helena, has
candidate for Carnegie medal in the person
of Miss Ida Mellon, a comely school teacher,
whose presence Of mind undoubtedly saved from
destruction the fifty more houses in the
place, to say nothing of the consequent loss Of
life that must have resulted Her claims, 1t
is understood will be presented to the proper
commission at Washington, and it is believed
she will be the first Montana person thus hon
ored. ...
Miss Melons attention was called to a volume
of smoke issuing thru the ceiling of the district
schoolhouse. and in moment pandemonium
reigned but she soon established order and
got the children out safely. Then an impromptu
fire brigade was organized under her direction,
and the children impressed into service, using
lunch pals and every conceivable receptacle for
the carrying Of water which was taken from q
nearby creek. In this way the fire was con-
quered. AS if nothing unusual had happened
school was shortly afterwards: resumed.
The town of Rimni consists of about fifty
wooden structures closely built together, the
scholohouse being on thefseifth side from which
direction aFwtnd bIoying. Hadk+the fire
not been extinguished, the town would surely
have been consumed. F..
All of the male inhabitants employed
in the mines in that vicinity and were un-
aware Of the impending danger to their homes
and families until after they came off the shift
in the evening. They are loud in their praise
of the plucky school teachers work. and will
make an effort to get Carnegie medal for her.
Miss Mellon is Helena girl, having been
educated in the schools here, later graduating
from the state normal .'...., s.

A New Irrigation Scheme

Charles P. Allen, civil engineer, in
conjunction with Elizabeth +.
| Holmes has filed with the state en-
gineer plat which involves plan to
bring the waters of Eagle river, on
the western side of the Rocky noun
tains, into the Arkansas valley on the
eastern side.
The plat filed is for the Tennessee
Ditch and Pipe line. The ditch is to
be constructed in Eagle, Lake and
Summit counties, and the headgates
will be near the head waters of the
Eagle river, ana near the top of Ten
nessee pass. 1t will skirt along, tax
ing in the east fork of the Grand
river aud other streams, claiming the
unappropriated waters. This will be
brought across the range but whether
by tunnel or otherwise is not stated,
as the plans affirm that the nature of
rhe country is such that perfected
plans will have to be filed later.
The intentions of the promoters are
to stoIe waters in great reservoirs
along the Arkansas valley Water
is becoming such Il valuable asset in
this state that the takers can afford
to expend very large sums of money
in storing and distributing it. In
places along the Cache La Poudre the
water is estimated to be worth 800 Il
foot. and the man who gets hold of 100
feet has a tidy fortune. Many of the
great enterprises that are being
mapped out today are far seeing in
this respect. 1t is possible to take
water from one watershed and transfer
it to another under the laws of this
state. A good many years ago the
city of Colorado Springs got through
a measure in the legislature permit
ting the taking of appropriated water
rights to which it had purchased
| from Bear creek into Ruxton creek
1t was carried up to the supreme court
in a test case, which declared it valid
| This is known as the Stickler decision,
as one suit was brought in the name
of the then mayor of Colorado
| Springs.
If this scheme is carried through
much land which now lies barren and
idle for want of water will be made
valuable farm land. -Salida Record
