largest used for irrigation purposes
in the United States, the water being
held back by an earth dam mile and
half long, and covering an area of
twenty-five miles in circumference.
Miss Helen McGill, daughter of a
renchman, and her guest, Miss VIII
burta Knight of this city, were riding
over the dam, when they noticed that
the high water in the reservoir, lashed
into waves by the wind, had begun to
cut dangerous hole through the bank,
which each second was made larger.
The girls galloped wildly to the home
of the caretaker, where they found
only Mrs. Reed. his wife, and his
daughter, Miss Edna.
The four women hastened to the
break. where all night long they
worked. never leaving the place for n
moment Fortunately a man named
Harvey happened to pass with team
before dark and assisted by hauling no
less than eleven loads of hay from a
nearby stack. which the women
-aeighted down with dirt and used TO

Worth Millions to irrigation.

Greeley, Colo-The decision rem
dered by the Supreme Court granting
the right to reservoir companies to
store ditch water owned by them in
reservoirs, when not being utilized. II

will likely work changes in the irriga-
ton business, to the benefit Of farm
ers.
Six or seven years ago s. ]. Gilmore
then president Of the Greeley & Love
land ditch, brought suit against the
Seven Lakes Reservoir Company, en-
Joining them from storing Louden &
Barnes ditch water in the Seven
Lakes reservoir at a time when own
ers could not use their water on crops.
Gilmore acted on the theory that IL
one could not use the water every day
while growing crops. anyone else was
privileged to its use. II worked a
hardship to reservoir companies who
owned such water for the loss Of 1t,
for in many cases farmers under the
reservoirs grew only beets or pota-
toes and needed water for late irriga-
tiOu Ouly.
The District Court sustained Gil
more. and the case was appealed to
the Supreme Court. In the meantime.
Mr.. Gilmore, being no longer presi-
dent Of the Greeley & Loveland Ditch
Company, the Seven Lakes company.
in which B. d. Sanborn is owner of
one-third of the stock, without oppo-
sition Of the Greeley & Loveland COM
pany. stored their Louden & Barnes
ditch water for late irrigation, al
though the suit was pending.
The decision is considered an i'm
portant victory for not only the Seven
Lakes reservoir. but for all reservoir
companies in northern Colorado,
where constant promotion of new res
ervoirs AID development of old ones,
is going on.
Heretofore ditch water that could
not be used Immediately was allowed
to waste, often running fields and
roads. Now all OF this water will be
conserved to the benefit of the farm
ers all Of the time. when most needed.
This conserving of ditch water in res
ervOirs will also be favorable to fac
tories and power companies having
use for reservoir water in connection
with their plants. In fact, the decision
embraces all reservoir property which
has become as great. IL not a greater
necessity to this region than bitches
drawing directly from the rivers.

What Is PreachInos

One of the most notable utterance.
from the Unitarian brethren comes
from the Rev. DR.. Thomas Slicer. says
Boston Herald, who deplores the habit
Of some Of his brethren of the cloth in
treating Of economics. politics and
civics in their pulpits. instead Of
preaching the gospel. In DR.. Slicer's
opinion. this isn't preaching at ALL 1t
lis iecturing. instead. A great many
churchgoers will agree with this view.
There may be special occasions when
sermons on texts from Holy Writ may
appropriately yield to some temporary
exigency. but as a rule religion. pure
and simple. is the preachers best
theme and most acceptable to his con.

With the exception Of the famous

It would literally reward the inventor.
The rat. individually. is . nuisance:

total. Board and lodging for one rat
for one year Is estimated at SO cents:
and It may be fairly enough assumed
that the farms Of the country support
at least one rat for every COW, horse.
pig, or other useful kind of live stock.
II this IL true, even allowing that one
half OF the sustenance Of the rats 10

not only earn the rewards of the de-

fer a blessing upon practically every
living agriculturist. Nor, adds the
Boston Budget. need he be debarred

Sherin Joseph Esser left for the

quiet until Monday, when 1t leaked
out that he had gone to Virginia for
the purpose of bringing Man back.
Naff is son-in-law of J. G. Burll-
hardt, Denver detective. He is ac-
companied by his wife and is on a
vacation trip. He was formerly ste
nographer at the State Penitentiary
and later for the District Court, and
has held responsible positions since
he came to Canon City seven years
ago.
Naff was married three years ago to
Miss Pansy Burkhardt. They have
one child, a girl about 2 years old.
They live in an elegantly furnished
home on Rudd avenue. 1t is alleged
tudt eAtdVdSdHt living Is responsible

successor discovered discrepancies
which caused an examination of the
books, and resulted in the discovery
Of an alleged shortage of $1,000. Naff
expected to return to Colorado, leav-
