SACRAMENTO, Aug. 14.-C. E. Grun-
sky of San Francisco, former Panama
canal commissioner and now consulting
engineer with the United States recla-
nation service, arrived In Sacramento
to-day from a four months tour OF the
localities in which the Government has
begun irrigation projects. One Of these
is in the northern part Of Montana, and
negotiations are pending between a
Canadian canal company and the recla-
nation service with reference to the
apportion1nent of the water.
Grunsky said the reclamation service
has under consideration a project to
impound the waters of the Rio Grande
and regulate their flow. If the present
plans are carried out some arrangement
will have to be made with the Mexican
Government. The reclamation service
has also planned to utilize a large por-
ton of the flow of the Colorado River,
and the Secretary Of the Interior is now
considering acquired right both in the
United States and Mexico in connection
with the project.
Grunsky said he saw great possibili-
ties in the proposed plant in the Klam-
ath' Lake country. He said data are
being gathered now in connection with
the flow Of the Sacramento River and
the possibilities for reclamation and ir-
rigation in this valley He remarked
that the general sentiment among the
engineers is that the funds at command
are too small for the great work in
prospect.
Grunslxy will go to Portland, Ore, in
a few days to confer with F. II. New
hall, chief of the reclamation service.

Woodshed Saturday NIGHT.

Worried over financial troubles

alleviate and with his mind doubt

fairly prosperous. middle-aged
farmer living near Zillah, went into
a shed near his dwelling house last
Saturday night, mounted work
bench threw one end of rope over
the rafters of the shed and secured
it, then tied the other about his
neck, and jumped to his death. His
tragic deed was not discovered I'M
til the following morning, when his
lifeless remains confronted his hor-
ror-stricken wife as she entered the
shed to get some wood. Neighbors
were at once summoned, but finding
that the body had long been life

Rosser arrived and inspected it. He
decided that Inc case was clearly one
of premeditated suicide, and did not
hold an inquest.
The deceased left his family in
fairly comfortable circumstances,
they having the ranch clear except
for small amount, and $4,000 in
due from fraternal society
to which Mr.. Jennings belonged.

Park Theater,

Two very interesting and strong
bills are occupying the boards at the
park this week. Among the most
amusing comedies ever staged is
"Other Peoples Money" which will
be produced from Monday to
Thursday, inclusive. Commencing
Friday night and continuing to and
including Sunday the beautiful
CLASSICAL comedy, "Pygmalion and
Galatea," will be presented. The
plot is laid in Athens and is based
on the Grecian myth wherein Pyg-
malion, who was sculptor, made an
ivory statue of young lady and
afterwards fell in love with the
statutory maiden he himself had
made and prayed to the gods that
this maiden might spring into a liv-
ing person. His prayers were
answered and he married the young
transformed maiden. ALI in all, 1t
is a very beautiful story. The me-
chanical and electrical effects that
will be installed will add greatly to
the Hlay.
