these same priests come in for their

WOODPECKERS DESTROY
TELEPHONE POLES.

Birds are destroying the tele-
phone and telegraph poles in the
south and southwest particularly
in Texas, Arizona, and California.
In some places fifty per cent OF all
the poles along the right-of-way
have been riddled by these inno-
cent offenders, which belong to the
woodpecker family.
One of the Western Union offic-
ials, who has recently returned
from an inspection through the
west, reported having seen twenty
FIVE telephone poles with two or
three hundred holes drilled clear
through them. Some of the holes
were three or four inches in dame
ter.
An officer of the Illinois Central
Railroad counted the white cedar
telephone poles along the right-of-
way near Covington, Tennessee,
which had been affected by wood
peckers, and found that out of 26S
poles, 10, or Al per cent, had been
bored.
In some cases destruction of the
pole takes only a few weeks and the
weakened condition makes it dang
erous for q lineman to climb the
stick.
The real object of the birds in
drilling is uncertain. One tele-
phone man said that the humrning
of the wires was mistaken by the
birds for insects excavating beneath
the surface of the wood, and that
they drilled the poles in quest OF
these imaginary insects. 1t is very
probable, however, that these holes
are excavated for an entirely differ
ent purpose. The woodpecker is a
provident bird. At the proper sea-
son it stores up supply of acorns
and other foods for future consump-
ton. In the summer these holes
are often found stored with acorns.
Many methods for preventing
this damage have been suggested,
but probably the most successful IS
the preservation with creosote. A
line of creosoted poles, opposite the
one near Covington, was examined,
and not single hole was found.
When it is considered that creosote
will not only prevent the damage
caused by the woodpecker, but
also protect the pole indefinitely
against both insects and decay, its
great value as a preservative is APP
parent.
The Forest Service has spent con-
siderable time in developing a cheap
yet efficient mothod for the treat
ment of telephone and telegraph
poles. The results of the work are
embodied in several Forest Service
circulars, copies of which may be
obtained without cost from the

Boston, Mass, March IA Miss
Wood and Miss Hardy, the latter a

School, were found shot to death in
bed early this morning. Miss Wood
escaped from a sanitarium last night
and fled to the school, where her
friend, Miss Hardy, agreed to care for
her during the night. The school is
suppressing all information, but the
police believe the deaths resulted
from suicide pact. Another theory
is that it was murder and suicide.
A revolver was found in the hands
of Miss Wood, and the police are of
the opinion that she did the shooting.

WATERWORKs QUESTION
HAS BEEN SETTLED
THE CITY AND WATER COMPANY
HAVE AGREED ON A NEW
CONTRACT, WHICH DIS
POSES OF MATTER.
Good Pressure Assured
Under Terms of the Contract the
Water Company Is to Pay For
felt Every Time Water
Pressure Is Below Spec
flied Standard.

The hour of the adjourned session
was changed yesterday, and the coun,
Gil met late in the afternoon, at which
both the Davis bond proposition and
the waterworks question were taken
fup.
The water question was settled by
contract, as follows:
Under the new contract the city will
pay for fire protection 100000 per
year, without interest on past due
warrants, while under the old CON
tract it paid $4,000, with interest on
past due warrants. The duration of
the contract is reduced from forty
years to thirty years. The actual cash
saved to the city per annum, includ-
ing principal and interest, amounts to
S1,475.00, in round numbers
Under the old contract the city had
no standard for domestic pressure at
all, and had a standard for fire pres
SIRE which it was impossible for the
water company to comply with. Under
the new contract the water company
is required to furnish domestic pres
sure of sixty pounds at all points in
the city all the time, and it must in
crease this to eighty-five pounds with
| in three minutes after the fire alarm
is turned in at the water company.
| The pressure will be measured by
gauges maintained at six different
points in the city.
The fire protection has been IN:
creased to 1873 fire hydrants, besides
the free hydrants provided for the
| protection of the railroad property.
In addition to this the water company
| will continue as heretofore to furnish
free water to the railroad company for
fire protection, and free water to all
the schools, cemeteries, fountains, etc.
In case the water company fails to
comply with its contract as to domes-
tic pressure it shall pay penalty of
$4,000 per day, and in case it fails to
have and maintain the required fire
pressure, it is to pay to the city $4,000
for each failure. Should the city fail
to pay the water company, or issue its
warrants for any amounts due for
hydrant rental within fifteen days
after same become due, then the city
will pay to the water company pen
atty of $4,000 per day.
In other respects the original fran
chise is in full force, which requires
the company to keep it's plant in first
class condition and maintain duplicate
machinery at its pumping station.
The total saving to the city is some
thing like $60,OOO00, in round num-
bers, and the water service is to be
vastly improved.
In the Davis bond matter the bank
was notified that the city held to
strict account the bank, or the bonds
men through the bank, for the addi-
tional shortage of something more
than S1,400 claimed on previous
bond to the last, which the bank had
already agreed to pay In case of the
failure of the bank to make settle
ment, suit will be instituted to re-
cover.
