provement in local conditions contin-
lie and with manufacturers and retail
ers in position to getall needed sup
plies, and with the work of clearing
away the ruins and temporary quar-
tiers, employment Is now provided for
all who want to work.
At a conference held today between
the representatives of the former To-
Cal hospitals arrangements were com
pleted for establishing these instittu-
tons in semi-permanent quarters. The
Red Cross Society has agreed to
make financial provision for their
maintenance for at least six months
and all chronic cases will be removed
from the army hospital to them thus
clearing the latter institution for
emergency cases.
The distribution OF clothing is well
under way. DIR. Devine having receiv-
ed half u dozen carloads of badly
needed supplies of this character to-
day.
viii Issue Hot Food.
The general relief Is proceeding
rapidly and in satisfactory manner
that is unprecedented in the history
of calamities. After Friday morning
issues of food will be restricted to
those who have registered and to
whom credentials have been issued.
1t has also been decided that wherev-
er possible hot food will be supplied
for the uncooked food at present be-
ing issued. This will help matters as
the restrictions against using CHM
neys In houses are still rigidly en-
forced and the only means of cooking
food, outside Of the immense kitchens
at the camps, is on the improvised
stoves at the camps.
There was no increase In the num-
Der Of typhoid cases reported to the
authorities today and the physicians
are hopeful as result that they have
the situation well in hand.

be obliged to live simply, and yet may
not need to use up all their vitality in
manual labor. True, they must walk
when others ride, they must take
thought to their apparel, that it be
presentable at small cost, and when
they entertain their friends they must
do 1t simply. But they have time to
read books and they have money tc
educate their children. Oftener than
not they are persons whose family ira
ditions incline them to fastidiousness
in social matters. They and their for
bear have been accustomed not only to
well-bred, but interesting people and

Twenty-Five years ago there was nc
reason why they shouldn't maintain
their inherited or acquired right to dc

tain of their fellow citizens 10 what
has been characterized as 1.-The habit OF
getting rich" has changed all that. II
is not only that the accumulation of
colossal fortunes restricts the financial
chances Of the moderately ambitious
majority, but it deprives them of some
innocent and legitimate comforts and
pleasures to which they think them
selves reasonably entitled, by increas

while the standard Of luxury is raised
in proportion This, to be sure, is an
old cry, but to the impecuni0us major

FREAK KANSAS WATER WELL
The Location, ON Top Of a Hill, Wa
AecfAoufoI

One OF the biggest water wells ever
drilled in this part of the country is
in the vicinity of the smelter here
says the Kansas City Stars correspond
ent at Cherryvale, Kan. The location
Of 1t was purely an accident. The smelt
er people were looking for supply OF
water for the horses, and decided that
1t would be better to go to the top of q
hill and run a gravity line down to
the works than to drill on the fat and
install pumps. The drill had not been
working more than three hours when
the water came with great rush and
nearly blew the tools out Of the hole
A six-inch pipe was put in and this is
barely sufficient to contain the volume.
The pressure is SO great that the
tank over the fire-engine house is filled
without pumping, and then the we'll Is
not working more than one-fourth of
the time. II it were to work all the
time 1t would not only supply all of the
departments Of the smelter. but the en-
tire town Of Cherryvale in addition.
The capacity Of the well Is matter
of guess, because 1t has never been al
lowed to run all day, but 1t is said to
be at least 100000 gallons day. The
drilling of the well has been the talk of
the farmers around in the neighbor
hood and more wells will be drilled in
the hope Of finding the same vein.
The big well is another Of the freaks
which have been the bane of biologists
since the discovery of oil and gas in
this part of the State. If there was
any other range of hills around here
the presence Of the water so near the
surface Of the ground on top of the hill
to the northwest might be explained
but how 1t happens that the water is
within twelve feet Of the highest hill
In the whole country and with no other
hill at all within reach. is something
the people, who think they know some
thing of geology, have been unable to
explain.
