do you sell coffee to strangers?"
This story is vouched for by Charles 8.
Breed. manager of the Krug theater, and
Colonel Tom Hughes travelling passenger
agent for the Missouri Pacific railroadt
two men who never told a lie in their lives.
Besides guiding the destinies of the Krug
play house Mr.. Breed works up country
excursions for the Ak-San- Ben den on
Monday evenings, and it was while pre-
vailing on the country cousins along the
line of the Missouri Pacific the other day
that Messrs. Breed and Hughes overheard
the interrogation that has made them smile
ever since
Breed and Hughes got off the too-too cars
a Dunbar, where a logrolling contest was
in progress. The Omaha men were as hum
cry as a pair Of female wolves. They spied
a sign reading, Chicken Dinner, 70 Cents"
They entered and learned that the chicken
dinner was all gone. A similar sign at
tracted them across the street to another
restaurant which they entered behind q
young couple all logged up for the oS-
cusion. The Omaha mems sativary glands
were aroused at the sight Of a large heap
Of fried chicken on the counter but out OF

do you sell coffee 10 strangers?" bash
fully asked the young swain, with all tho
seriousness In the world and IN a manner
that suggested the idea that strangers in
Dunbar must needs have credentials to
buy a cup of coffee or a bunch of dough-
nuts.
The question asked by the young man was
too much for Breed and Hughes who beat
a hasty retreat. lest the evidence OF their
amusement might embarrass the young
man and his fair Imogene
The Omaha men returned In about half
an hour and ate fried chicken until the
speckled kline of Dunbar came home to be
MIXED and the curfew tolled the knell
OF parting day" in other words, they ate
fried chicken until their hunger had been
appeased

GREATEST OF WATER PROJECTS
Supply for Los Angeles to BE Car
ried n Distance of 2iO
Miles.

Greatest Of schemes OF water supply yet
preached is that for supply of the city Of
Los Angeles. 1t proposes to bring in the
water of Owens river a mountain stream
of Inyo county, California, which has sup
ply enough not only for the city of Los
Angeles. but for the territory around the
city and for the territory along the line
of the canal. This river flows into a sink
in the desert. Its waters may be carried
by gravity to Los Angeles but the distance
is 24O miles, and the cost of the project
is estimated at about $25,OOOOOO. Thirty
miles of tunnels will be required
The river has its sources in a high noun
tain range, parts of which hold snow
throughout the year. The volume though
greater in spring is very steady throughout
the year. The flow equals that Of our
CIackamas river, or exceeds it. Investiga-
ton by competent engineers leaves no
doubt that it may be carried to Los Ange-
les. That it will be done cannot be ques-
toned, because the demand for it will over
come all obstacles. Owens river is a
mountain stream, Of little or no usefulness
carried to those who may make use of it
for it discharges into a desert Carried
into the city of Los Angeles it will sup
ply water for all time, and will freshen a
large part of southern California II is
perhaps the greatest Of all schemes OF
water supply that rhe world has yet known
The Times Of Los Angeles says: "A few
years ago Los Angeles could not have
thought of engaging In such an enterprise,
but rapid has been our growth in pop
ulation and wealth that we can now em-
bark upon II without the slightest heslta-
ton, feeling certain that we are not only
rich enough to pay the bills, but that the
business OF the water works will be large
enough to make the investment profitable
when considered from the narrowest finan-
cial standpoint, without regard to the
broad general advantage. Great is water!
The mountains may Crumble but water
makes old things become new, water brings
life where there was death. Los Angeles
has found something better than a gold
mine. Portland Oregonian.

origin of the Briar Pine.

The so-called briar pipe is not made OF
briaT at all, but from the root Of a par
ticular kind OF heather called in French
bruyere, which grows on the hilsdes OF
the Tuscan Alps in north Italy and on the
mountains OF Corsica. English tradesmen
finding the correct word bruyere somewhat
dificult for the English tongue 10 pro-
nounce, reduced It to briaT and in this way
the corruption crept in, and was established
by popular usage. Originally Swiss peas
ants made snuffboxes OF this wood, and
when snun-taklng became questionable
the peasants turned their attention 20 max
ing pipes from the root. and found ready
market for them
