ATTENTION FARMERS
 SEt VAN DER WEIR
Arizona Canal Farmers Should Have
 Their Water Orders Ready.

Announcement is again made, both to the members of the Arizona Canal Water Users association and to the farmers under that ditch who are not
 members, that it is highly important that each one of them take final ac- counting of his own case. to see wheth-
 CT or not he has any business with. the secretary of that association or the assistant secretary. C. A. Van der
 Veer. whose office is at the board of trade room.
 There are many members of the as- sociation who have already paid for their water for this season. and who are entitled to have it. only that they
 nave neglected to call on the secre-
 tary and get their order for water.
 The square deal' policy of the assOci- ation was devised for the absolute pre-
 tection of each member and to that
 end the zanjeros are instructed to give
 water to no man unless he presents an
 order for it, showing that 1t is paid for The ZanjerOs do not keep the books and the man wnO has paid for
 his water must have his order to pre-
 sent to tne Zanjero who this coming week is to be the most important man
 in the world under the Arizona canal, and who will have to be shown before ne raises any headgates. The first in struction was to give stock water to all members as first aid to the injur- ed" but unless something not now even dreamed about should immediate ly occur. the stock water will have been divided to all in a very few days and after that the irrigation Of the lands will begin. The man who has paid for water and misses his first run | can blame no one but himself and il is hoped no deserving farmer will miss l it.
 | Those who have subscribed their i land and have not yet paid for the
 water are in a still more precarious l condition. for, unless the water is paid ! for by the time it is ready for delivery | they will not get it, however good their ] intentions are. IL is money that talks ] this year, and with more than usual ] emphasis. If they havn't the money tC i pay just now. they must get it some | way or go dry.
 ] And to those who have not even sub-
 scribed their lands. nothing more can ! be said than to reiterate all tnat has ! been said before. That substantially 1 is, sign up and pay your money. fo ] there will be a good many dry day: ! between now and october.

the immediate future the stream above
that point win have a channel navi-
gable for large vessels. thus opening up
possibilities for the establishment Of
large manufacturing industries along
the creek banks.
The work is being done under the
city appropriation made some time ago
with the sanction of the Legislature.
The work Of dredging the channel be-
tween the bridge and the mouth Of the
river has been completed under the ap-
preparation Of $4,000 made by the gov
Iernmen..
The preliminary work Of marking out
the channel above the bridge was done
in conformity with plans furnished by
United States Engineer Flagler the
first borlngs being made Friday last,
land the actual dredging begun the fol-
lowing day. when 635 tons of material
were excavated by the dredges.
Since then the work has steadily
progressed. and the deepening of this
Important waterway seems to be a
matter Of the near future. thus adding
to the facilities Of our commence and
manufactures, and adding TO the fame
| Of our city as aaport of entry.

APARTMENT FIRE
Occupants on Roof Waiting
to Be Rescued When Walls
Fail in

BY our own Wire, Publishers Press.
KANSAS CITY. Mo-, Oct. 25-Flre
which burned 10 the ground early to-
day the Chamber of Commerce and a
large apartment house adjoining. is be-
lieved to have caused the death OF at
least twenty-five persons.
1t is expected that their bodies will
be found I'm the ruins. In addition hfty
persons are reported injured, several
of them so seriously that 1t is feared
they will die.
Twenty-Five persons are known to
have been huddled on the roof or col
lected on the fourth floor of the apart
ment house when the walls suddenly
crumbled and the building collapsed
like a house of cardboard. The estl-
mate of the dead is based upon this
fact, and the list Of the missing. Every
one left i'm the building was carried
down in the ruins and not one is known
to have escaped.
When the hremen arrived the entire
building was a blazing mass. Fire
ladders were raised but did not reach
above the third floor. Many persons
who dared to venture back to that floor
were carried out Some, crazed by
fear, jumped from the top floor or the
roof to be picked up bleeding and in
jured. Firemen pushed their way
through the burning building and
brought out several who had fallen un-
conscious in the smoke-hlled halls o.
had been overcome before getting out
Of their apartments.
Heroic rescues occurred in several
cases. on the fourth floor Mr.. and
Mrs. II. G. Wilson. with their infant
child were cut off from escape. Mrs.
Wilson jumped toward the firemen on
the ladder below. The first man broke
her fall and others were able to seize
l,er and she was got down in safety.
Wilson. carrying his babe in his arms
followed her in the mad leap. He,
too, was saved.
