 THE BAPTIST PICNIC.-There was another picnic at East Lake park yes terday. it being the occasion of the annual outing of the Sunday school of the Baptist church. The picnic was not large in one in point of numeri- cal strength, and there was marked scarcity in the shouts and happy laughter of children. Two pleasure boats, fastened in tandem, went glid- ing over the waters of the lake laden with cargoes of children, happy in their mirthful glee of Voyaging over the silvery surface of the waters, and two of the big warden swings were kept in operation a great deal of the time. At the noon hour small groups and family repaired to the green gras- ses and under the sheltering branches of big trees, ate their lunches. Anoth CT small group emptied their lunch boxes and baskets on an end of the lOnS DOdIu ldUlt lildt lldu btth IlipAO- vised and used as a whole the day previous by the Sunday school of the Christian church. and participants of their feast. A tub of water with ice in it, sat back aways where those who were thirsty from eating. would go and Quench their thirst. There was neither pastor of the church or super intendent of the Sunday y-school present and the picnicers wandered aimlessly about, lost, like a ship at sea without a rudder. Soft winds from the south aided in making the weather cooler. There were four visitors to the picnic unknown to each other or to anybody. One of them inquired the way to the tub of water and never returned. Word passed that there would be larger attendance in the afternoon, but the visitor who carried a pencil tablet in his hand didn't wait to see.

Of these thir- teen paid in full Yesterday sixteen subscribers paid in $59S.25. This makes a nice little showing for this week and if the subscribers will just keep up the good work there will be no shortage of funds. It is gratifying that so many have paid in full show ing their confidence and their willing
 ness to help along the work. It is also indicative of the prosperity of the val ley and shows that the people can
 pay if they really want to, at least most of them. There is probably no place in the country where such an emergency can be better met in these days of tight money elsewhere.

 he almost froze at the Grand Canyon day before yesterday but yesterday he
 was mOpping his brow just like the good old summer time. He had no time to look around the valley but spent the entire day in learning all he could of it in town. He consulted the weather man and searched his records, looked over the exhibits at the board
 of trade and found out all he could by inquiry concerning the surrounding
 lands and the water question. He was lfavorably impressed and said he was
 already almost persuded to make an investment but did not have time to
 do so. But with all of Arizonas great
 ness the doctor still insi.ted that

Old Landmarks of Kenosha Water
Company to Give Place for
Modern Pump
COMMISSIONERS SEE PLANT
Bids for the New Pump Will Be Asked
for as Soon as Superintendent
Has Completed specifca-
lions for Big Machinery

One of the old landmarks of the Ke-
nosha Water Company is to lose it's
place of honor at the plant of the COM
pany in the near future as at the meet
ing of the Board Of Water Commission
ers held on Monday afternoon it was
decided that it would be necessary to
tear out one of the original pumps in
stalled in the plant to make room for
the new pump which is to be installed
early in the new year. After the meet
ing of the Board the commissioners
made a trip of inspection to the plant
and it was formally decided that at
least one of the old pumps must go and
it is possible that both of them will be
taken out.
The pumps were installed with the
building of the plant and five years
ago they had practically outlived their
usefulness, but they were kept in the
plant as reserve pumps. It is said that
they are of little value, but it is posi-
bic that the members of the Board of
Water Commissioners will be able to
dispose of them to some small water
plant. In this manner the Board would
receive a small revenue to be used in
the installation Of the new pump.
The Board has definitely decided on
the installation of the pump and it will
be pump with a capacity of six mil
lion gallons Of water daily. AS the de-
mand for the new pump is an urgent
one it is planned to have it installed
at the plant as early as possible in the
spring. The annual report of the Com.
mission which will be issued within a.
short time will show that there are am
pie funds on hand to provide for the
installation of the pump and regular
fund has been set aside for this purpose.
Bids for the pump will be received
by the Board early in January and now
that a formal decision has been made
to install the pump the superintendent
will at once get out the proper specif-
cations. It is planned to get a pump
with sufficient capacity to take care
of the demands of the company for at
least ten years. The estimated cost
of the pump will be in the neighborhood
of 100000
The Board did not take up in any
way the recent report of the Special
Committee Of the Common Council in
regard to the conference to discuss
changes in the water supply and a copy
of this report was not laid before the
Board. It was thought that as this was
the first regular meeting of the Board
since that matter came up that there
would be a discussion Of the matter,
but so far as the members of the Board
are concerned the incident is a closed
onte
The usual amount of routine business
came before the Board and the usual
number of bills were allowed It is
thought that the Board will be called
upon to make many extensions Of the
mains during the coming spring and the
Commission is planning to start this
work just as soon as the weather will
permit.

TO DEVELOP ROAD
Bond Holders Expect to Put C.
& M. Electric Road on a
Substantial Basis
BELIEVE THE LINE WILL PAY

Definite steps towards an era of
prosperity for the Chicago and Mil
waukee electric line were taken Mon
day at meeting in Chicago in which
holders of nearly two-thirds of all out
standing bonds were represented.
It was decided to place the road on
a substantial basis and go ahead with
it's operation in the expectation that
it will develop into paying PROPOSE
ton.
John V. Clarke, president of the Hi
bernian Banking company, was elected
chairman Of the bondholders commit
tee. Other members are Charles B.
Shedd Of Chicago and George A. Somer-
vile, Miller Lash, and Robert Cassels
of Toronto,
On advice of Attorney Jacob New
man, in whose office the meeting was
held, it was decided to proceed with
foreclosure actions which were begun
in Chicago and Milwaukee, following
the road s failure to meet the interest
on it's bonds. It is estimated that
these proceedings will require three
months, at the end Of which time the
company will be thoroughly re-organiz-
ed.
cit looks as if the property would
pay out within five years. said Attor-
ney Newman. CT wish [ had some of
the bonds. We now have represented
$6,408,000 Of the bonds, although we
needed only $5,0O0,000. The road will
be a success because of the rapidly in
creasing population along It's route and
because of it's intrinsically desirable
features. "
A. G. Frost, protector of the road,
also approved the plan.
'The road now has an entrance to
Milwaukee, he said. ''Its facilities
in connection with the Northwestern
elevated road will be much improved
this spring, and business should be
good.
'Ravinia Park and similar proper
ties are entirely distinct from the road.
They are controlled by A. G. Frost &
Co., partnership which is in a re-
ceiver's hands. The plan of selling
season tickets to Ravinia to guarantee
the seasons expenses proved all right
last year, and we have hopes for even
larger business this summer"
Another meeting Of the bondholders
will be held today.

TO GET SAND HERE
Chicago Sand and Gravel Company An
nounces it Will Get Sand off Kenosha

~-~sA~ANNH ~ "AS@~SS~~~S
The Marine Sand and Gravel com.
pany was organized in Chicago Mon
day and it is announced that the COM
pany will at once start in the sand
business securing sand off Kenosha,
Michigan City and Muskegon, Mich.
1t is just possible that the new com
pany will run up against snag if an
effort is made to secure sand from the
beach off Kenosha. For the past year
the members Of the City Council have
been making. an effort to prevent the
removal of sand from the beach and
it is probable that the first sand sucker
owned by the new company that hits
Kenosha will be enjoined from remov-
ing a cargo of sand City Attorney
John G. Slater has been taking this
matter up with the officials Of MilWau-
Zee and other cities and there is AIDE

operation Of sand suckers along the
