PUMPING PLANT HERE
Orange Growers Will Begin to Get
 Water on Saturday.

The four pumps ordered by the Ari- zona Hardware and Vehicle company, last Thursday for the Orange Growers Association. arrived here yesterday. and are now en route to the dam and by Friday night or Saturday morning they will be throwing approximately 2 900 inches of water into the Arizona canal.
 The pumps were delayed one day by an accident 'n San Francisco by which one of them was thrown off dray wagon and broken and it took one day to repair it. The shipment therefore. was not made until Saturday instead of Friday. as expected. Another day was lost by the railroad company in making connections so that the enter nrise Is two days behind schedule However, four days and a half from San. Francisco is nCt bad for heavy freight and the railroad officials de- serve credit for pushing things. It was expected that the plant wauld be here and in commission in seven days from the time it was ordered, but the un- foreseen IS always "butting into hu- man plans.
 But nine days f., record breaking for that kind of an enterprise and 1t is d fine llluStrauOn or the virtue oi uOiie things vigorously if they are worth doing at all. The extra expense oi ordering the plant by wire, following it through by special arrangements fci tracing etc, and hastening the work al this end by hiring competent men t( take charge and push things, will prob ably not exceed fifty dollars and it i: altogether likely that in the end i will be cheaper.

HILL ON SUCCESS.

Within the last week three success.
full business men have given out inter-
views in which they included advice
to young men on how to be success
full, wealthy and wise" Marshall
Field, Respondent in the glory Of a
bridegroom, told reporter over in
London that perseverance,, honesty
and push" were necessary. John u.
Rockefeller melted the reserve that
has kept him ard newspaper men on
opposite sides of the street for so long
and told an interviewer thas his ideas
are about the same as those of Mr..
FiFeld. Now comes ] ]. Hill, rail-
road giant and a typical self made
man, and he lays down rules for the
government of the ambitious. He
said to an interviewer in New York:
"There are more opportunities than
there are young men to take advan-
tage Of them. You say the country
has grown larger, that life is more
complex and that { result the per-
sonal incentive has vanished in pro-
F. ton Everything in that is per-
fectly correct except the conclusion.
The country is bigger and life is more
complex, but who will gainsay that If
the country has grown bigger the OPP
portunities have with it, and that If
life is more complex, it at least re-
suits in a greater variety of opportun-
tiles.
"a youn;, man has always had to
help make his opportunities land he
must do that today as ever But
young men fail more nowadays than
they used to because they expect to
reap almost as soon as they SOW. That
is the very great trouble with the
young men of the present. They ex-
pect opportunities to come to them
without application or proper shaping
of things so that opportunities will
drift their way. You have to keep
your eyes open and catch hold of
things; they'll not catch hold of you
as a rule.
Energy, system, perseverance
these are great components of success
in a young mans life, and with them
| he is bound to succeed as well today
as he ever succeeded. He must have
a set standard of achievement; he
must make up his r ind what he is go
/ ing to do in the world, and then keep
fighting for this standard"
Energy, system, perseverance These
are the three characteristics Mr.. Hill
says are essential if a young man
would succeed. And he brings the as
surance that with these qualities a
young man can go ahead as fast and
as far as any young man in any age
has ever been able to go. Mr.. Hill
denies that the space at the top is
crowded and declares that there arr
more good positions than there are
young men to fill them.

DIES IN AGONY.
Inmate Of Jail Dead as Result of Use
of Disnfectant to XIII Vermin.

Eldora, Sept. IA. = One of the most
peculiar deaths ever recorded in Hard
in county occurred in the Jail here in
the demise of Frank Delaney, alias
Frank Howard in prison for burglary.
The man, who was % years of age,
was committed from Iowa Falls on the
charge of breaking and entering and
had been convicted and was to re-
ceive penitentiary sentence.
He was infected with lice. Physi-
clans prescribed a disinfectant, and
Howard, not content with small doses
upon his clothing. sprayed the poison
all over his body, which caused him
to become delirious and suffer terrible
agony. He could not sleep for the
pain and inconvenience and died this
week as the result Of the applica-
ton of the disinfectant.
Howard had no home and has been
in several prisons and penitentiaries
on various charges. Just before his
death, Howard in thanking DR.. Morse
for many kindnesses rendered during
his sickness, told the physician how
to carry his watch and chain so that
they would be less liable to be stolen
and remarked to DR.. Morse that he
had watched chance to get the watch
and chain since he first met the doc
| tor.
