CITY DADS IN SESSION.
ConsiscT New Water Supply Prospect
ara Order Development Wcr~ In
augufstes at Orce. Minor
Matters Discussed.

The city council met in regular
session last Monday night Al Of
the aldermen were present with the
exception of the coal man and Mayor
Barr presided. A synopsis Of the
proceedings is as follows:
Under the head of communica-
tons letter from the Prescott
Pump Works was read relative to
extending the suction pipe across
the river. They advised that AN ex-
tension of the suction pipe could be
made up to 1000 feet. and guaran-
teed that it would work" If prop
erly constructed and made perfectly
air-tight. Burns & Mcdonald. the
water works contractors. advised
that such an extension would be
practical and feasible. and cited the
fact that they had installed four
teen-inch suction pipe for a distance
of over half mile, with vertical
suction lift of ten feet, and that it
had worked satisfactorily for
period Of over four years.
City Chemist Griffin engaged the
attention of the city council for half
an hour with an interesting demon
stration in chemistry. He brought
with him several bottles containing
samples of the different kinds of
water used in La Junta, among them
being the well known liquid that cir
culates through our city water
mains. North La Junta water, dis
titled water, and sample of water
from Mr.. Griifin's cistern. A sample
of each was placed in test tube,
into which a solution of nitrate of sill
yer was poured, the resulting chem
ical change making plainly apparent
the quantity of solids contained in
each. After the test the city water
looked almost like milk, showing
that it has great sufficiency of
solids, about 2S9 grains to the gal
Ion. The sample Of North La Junta
water was better, having only sew
enty-three grains to the gallon.
The distilled water was still
better. and there was no perceptible
change in the color of the cistern
or rain water, which shows
that it has less solids and is the
purest of all those submitted. The
test showed, however, that the
North La Junta water is 400 per
cent better than our city water. We
are quite sure that any effort made
by our city fathers to acquire a sup
ply of North La Junta water will be
greatly appreciated. and that every
mothers son in this community will
rise up and called them blessed If
such supply is secured.
DR.. j. F. Kearns and E. w. Nc
Daniel were among those present
and successfully supplicated the
powers that be in municipal affairs
to install three crosswalks on the
west side of Colorado avenue. even
unto Tenth street, in order that the
residents of that section may walk
into town without getting stuck in
a amudhole on the way. The cross
walks were ordered in.

A Desnernte Wager.

Driven to desperation by their heavy
losses, gamblers have often sought by
some coup either to repair their shat
tered fortunes or to bring down utter
ruin upon themselves. One Of the most
curious instances of this kind comes
from England In the eighteenth centu-
ry a notorious gambler had been los
ing steadily in a game for high stakes
with Lord I1orne. Exasperated by his
continued i'll fortune, he suddenly
sprang up from the card table, seized
large and costly punch bowl and,
balancing it above his head, called out
to his opponent:
sFor once I'll have a bet where /
have an equal chance Of winningl Odd
or even, for $4,000 guineas!'
'Oddr' replied the peer placidly, and
the gambler hurled the magnificent
bowl against the wall
When they counted the pieces Lord
Lorne had won. Tuesday Magazine

A style of yavding recommended by
Professor james L. Rice 81 Cornell
college Of Agriculture and shown
herewith consists Of q long or contin-
aous house $40 BY Is feet. divided into
pens is by 1G feet, there being sixteen
pens or fewer. the same proportion, Of
course being maintained This is a
most convenient arrangement says Z.
q. Keyser in Poultry Success. The
yard is 800 feet each way, containing
10000 square feet or pasturage for 800
or 900 fowls. The pens are ample for
fifty fowls. There are a little over two
acres in the yards. A method followed
with similar yards is to confne the
fowls to the north yard about Aug. /.
Then the south yard is plowed and
about Sept. 10 sown to rye and grass
seed. or clover may be soWn on the
rye in the spring When the rye has
made a good start, say the middle Of
October. the hens are turned on it and
allowed to run there until confined to
the house for winter
LII the spring the north yard is plow-
ed and planted to corn, which is cult
