Water in Reservoir Next Week.

Water will be turned into the Jules
burg reservoir next Monday unless
some unexpected weather conditions
arise to prevent. Arrangements to
this end were made "Wednesday at a
meeting of the directors of the district.
AT which the districts attorney. Judge
fllllus. the contractor, ID. \. Cam
neld. ana his attorney were present.
BY the terms of the agreement reached
at that time the district obtained po-
session OF the reservoir and intake
ditch. accepting the work on these so
far as completed. The original con-
tract with Mr.. Camfield was cancelled
and new contract covering the un-
finished work was made. In this con-
tract Mr.. Camtield binds himself to
complete all work now undone on res
ervoir and outlet ditch on or before
June l. and to turn the entire system
of water works over to the district at
that time. free from all liens and en-
cumbrance> of any kind. For the
faithful performance of the contrac,
he gives !. 81, 900 60.
The Grit Advocate believes that the
action taken by the directors Wednes-
day was the best that could have been
taken under the circumstances. The
main thing was to secure possession
OF the intake ditch and reservoir at
once, so that water can he turned in
while there is still plenty in the river.
To accomplish this it was necessary
to accept the contractors terms, to
considerable extent And while these
terms were not as favorable to the
district As could be desired. they We're
the best that could be secured. We.
therefore. believe that the directors
did right iii making the arrangements
they did.
The really important thing has been
accomplished: the district is in poses
sion OF the reservoir and intake ditch.
and water can be turned in as soon as
the weather will permit. With the
prospect Of plenty of water in the riv-
er until late spring, there is yet time
to put as much water in the reservoir
as will he needed for irrigation this
year. Altogether the people of Sedg-
wick county have cause for rejoicing
over the amicable settlement of what
at one time seemed to be Il serious
controversy.

Brush Votes S35, 100000 For Water
Works.

DO the people of Brush want water
works?' was the question voted on la st
Monday, and sixty of the tax payers
Of our town said Yes. you bet" The
necessity Of q system of water works
in Brush was the cause of the unani-
nous vote for their erection. OF
course there were three votas against
it, but we don't believe they should
stand in the way of calling the cleo
ton unanimous, when sixty votes
were cast in favor of water works.
And again it is possible that the three
voted against it by mistake. Anyway
they do not count, and Brush will
have good system of water works in
operation before many months.
No trouble is anticipated as to plac-
ing the bonds, as number OF bond
firms have already made inquiries
about them.
The plans and specifications of the
plant and system have been drawn by
G. II Meeker, of McCook. the engi-
neer who planned and superintendent
the erection of the system at Fort
Morgan. We understand that the
system is to be completed sixty days
after the work OF erection begins.

PANAMA RECEIVES WEIRD
REPORT OF BIG CALAMITY
r. p. Sohwerin Tells How Ananlas
Must Have Edited Cables Sent
to the lsthmus


r. p. Schwerin, vice president and
general manager Of the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company, was at Panama
on April is and there learned of the
disaster which had befallen San Fran
cisco. Dreadful as the actual calam-
fly was he was almost pleased when
he arrived here the other day and
learned the real state Of affairs by
personal inspection.
The first report We received" said
Schwerin yesterday, was that San
Francisco had been visited by an
earthquake and tidal wave and that
5000 lives had been lost.
That was bad enough, but a later
cable In response TO frantic appeals
for particulars carried less comfort
In substance the second cable was as
follows: San Francisco destroyed by
earthquake; 100000 lives lost; bust
ness portion of city swept by tidal
wave and remainder Of residence part
being destroyed by flames; Chicago in
ashes; New Orleans has disappeared
beneath the waters Of the Mississippi
river
