our Ambassador to Berlin

Was it a journalist who perhaps slip
ped boldly in? No. 1t was the new
American ambassador, quite simply
dressed in an evening suit, without
single star. Every opera glass was

feared that DR.. Hill would be guilty
of some such faux pas when he got
among the elite at a recherche affair.
In fact it was limited nat Mr.. Hill
had been seen riding on d bicycle with
a basket on his arm containing the

Charlemagne Tower, things were very
different at Berlin. That gorgeous
citizen ambassador would have been
pleased to wear the gilded dcme of the

Z o'clock, the water in the mains
north of Main street was turned on
and at once the work of saving
5-foot section out of the main on
the east side of Fifth street just
south of Grand avenue was started.
Superintendent Vedder round it to
be necessary to put in a piece of
work something like a ''T' at this
point and at a point on Fifth street
Just south of Gunnison avenue. in
order to connect the big pipes-the
old and the new.
Every bit of the work that could
be done up to the actual cutting into
the pipe had been done. and when
the water was turned off every mo-
ment was made to count big, and,
through the hours of the night the
workmen toiled increasingly, and as
a result by 1920 O'Clock this morning
the connections were made and the
water was again running.
Many people seem to think that,
as a result of the work last night,
the new extension is in use today.
but such is not the case. The new
extension will not be in use until
after the connection is made at the
pump, WHICH Will pc iiauc y" ".'iiii 'iiS
next two days, and, if nothing hap
pens, the new service VIII be under
way by Saturday.
When all the connections are made
thorough test will be made of the
pipes before the full force is turned
into the new extension. Then, If
everything works right, the water
will be turned on in full force. Af-
ter about ten days the water will be
turned out of the big main that
comes across the east side of the
Fifth street bridge, and the old pipe
on the bridge will be taken down and
new lengths will be put in and the
pipe strengthened in its supports on
the bridge piers. This work will re-
quire less than a week, and then the
entire city water system will be in
excellent condition.

HALLICAN
NOT GUILTY

Officer A. j. Halligan of the
police force was this afternoon
found not guilty and fully exon
Grated of the charge of assault
and battery preferred against
him by Waldy VanBuren. The
costs of the case were taxed
against the county.
Justice Sweeney, who heard the
trial and who rendered the decis-
ion, declared that the only mistake
that officer Hall gan had made was
that of failing to arrest young Van
Buren after he had given the officer
impudent and insulting answers, and
bringing him to town and confining
him in jail.
The court declared that officers of
the law must be respected, and no
man has right to refuse in an in
sulting manner to obey reasonable
order or request made by an officer.
The court fully exonerated Officer
Halligan, and, had young VanBuren
been in the court, he would in all
probability have received severe,
and, from all accounts, justly mer-
tied lecture from the court-but Van
Buren wasn't there.
The decision of the court will meet
with general approval An acqult-
tai of the officer was expected. There
was no case against him.
