BID Above Estimate.

It will be seen that Mr.. wickham's bid
Is considerably higher than the city en-
gineers estimate. To Mr.. Wickhams fig
ures must be added the 5000 for real estate
and the $4,000 for financing and they
would bring his total to S669.535.
While Mr. Etnyre estimated 5000 for real
estate. the general opinion is that the
ground for a pumping station, settling
basins and high pressure reservoir could
not be bought for anything like 5000. Tho
probable cost of the necessary real estate
Is placed as high as 10000.
Tho presence of several supposed con-
tractors and representatives of contracting
firms in the city led the city officials to
expect several bids. It turned out. how
ever. that the supposed contractors were
merely representatives. of supply firms and
that they were here to furnish figures TO
Mr.. wiekham.
City Treasurer True in his report on the
city finances relative TO the issuance OF
bonds for the construction OF a water works
plant submitted to the council in the early
part OF last month said:
II the law is such that we can incur an
die01Ss aSlsSi Vaiae 81 our taSaBie property @ for
the purpose OF building water works, l
property is S16S5l, ,26O, and per cent of this
amount would be sS42,563
Deducing from this amount the present
net debt OF $260.00O It would leave a bal
ance OF 1925 that would be available
to apply upon the purchase or building Of
a water works system so far as bond
issue Is concerned. In addition to this we
have in the water works sinking fund
81, ,9oS this added to the $592. .563 would make
a total OF seO7.4 .46s available from both
sources at this date.
We have levied and under collection
funds that will reduce our bonded indebted
ness this year approximately $4,000, also
a levy that will give us an additional sum
of $500 in our water works sinking fund,
which one year from now would, with the
amount available at this date, give us
S634966.

1t VIII Not Down-The old rivalry be-
tween Grand Island and Hastings, of which
there had been little sign Of late, has
broken out in an unexpected manner. A
Hastings man married wife at Omaha.
Returning home by way OF Grand Island,
the Hastings man and his wife stopped for
the night at the latter place. The groom
went out on a business errand and when
he returned the bride was gone and could
not be found, although several suspects
were searched. 1t is clearly up TO Grand
