DOUGLAS NEWS NOTES
FROM DOUGLAS INTERNATIONAL

Had it not been for the grim, gaunt and terrible spectre of New England blue laws being applied to Sunday ob- eervance in Douglas. which s. E. and spectre was menacingly Haunted in the face of several of the city fathers ey that peris stentiy independent minded individual. Alderman Cole of the Second ward. that anti-circus pa- rade ordinance which has been agi- tatfng the ministry of the city and the aidermanic minds would have gone through just as the mayor orig. mally thought 1t would, tow {. viz: "One-twothree. Donei Our fair city has been spared"
 But when that spectre was lifted by the ubiquitous statesman from the Second, there was 8 noticeable pause. From a double-quick, the proceedings fell into a walk, then a limp, then mark time. and presently a dead halt was called.
 All this followed a nice send-of given the anti-parade ordinance by Mayor Greene. He pointed out that the circus management had presum- ed too far upon the good people of Douglas. and that the inference one must draw from their action in show ing here on Sunday Is not one calcu- lated to impress favorably those whom the city desires to impress. While the city has no authority to prevent the circus outside the city limits. he sa d, the city can and may stop Sunday circus parade.

New York and Chicago Stock Exchanges Observe Good
 Friday

CHICAGO. April 7-Popular de mand for more holidays in the United States following the custom of coun- tries where life is less strenuous, has new encouragement in observance of Good Friday and the Saturday follow ing by the stock exchanges of New York and Chicago. As these institu- tions have been the ones to begin the first observance as holidays of many of the days now legally so. particular ly the decision of the Chicago Stock Exchange Is significant of the change going on even in the West. It blazes the way for a lesening of strenuous ness or at least less continuous chasing after the dollar regardless of human need of respites.
 In Illinois Good Friday is not a le- gal holiday nor is 1t one in New York but the observance of the day, first by the Stock Exchanges, then by banks and other business houses gives prom ise that it may become one as it is in the States of Alabama. Connecticut, Delaware. Florida. Louisiana Mary land. Minnesota, New Jersey, Pennsyl- vania and Tennessee.

CAPTAIN KIDD GOLD
 BEING SEARCHED FOR
Noyia Scotia, StoIid and Staid, Has Fever For the
 Hunt

CHICAGO, April 7.-Searehers for the fabled treasurers of Captain Kidd do not lose heart with the years, ap- parently. This time it is staid Novia Scotia which has the fever. says a Chicagoan who has just returned from that province of Canada. Induced by the reported find of a sign read ing.
 Ten feet below two million pounds lie buried" a New York engin- ger named Bowdoin has signed a con tract with the owners of Oak Island, in Malone Bay. permitting him to overturn the earth on the entire sur face of the island and is reported to have already begun the work. Tradi- ton has it that Oak Island was once a rendezvous for Captain Kidd and his band of pirates. and that his ship. the Adventurer, often came to anchor in Malone Bay, where the spoiis of the English marauders' raids on the high seas were landed and buried. Digging for this Oak Island treasurer has gone cn at periods for many years back but nothing tangible was ever found. Com panies have been formed to furnish capital for searching work. and have spent over s1,000.000. it Is said. and many individuals have tried it, but invariably the location of the treas ure. if there be such, was not dis closed.
 Some years ago number of Halifax men interested themselves in such company, but the brilliant pros poets failed to materialize. At one time an old platform was found some distance below the surface of the is land. and this fact gave rise to the hope that the treasure was close at hand. But disappointment followed, as the treasure, further than few old coins, was not located. Captain Kidd has proved just as good hlder as he evidently was a seeker. Now a New Yorker will try his hand Report has tt that he will literally tear up the earth" on the island, but it has had literal tearing up several times with out success. It is great advertising for Chester and Malone Bay, however, and it would not be surprising if some of the enterprisfng residents of these places have a finger in this search pie.
 Mir. BOwdoin is a hydraulic and mechanical engineer. and he says with modern appliances he can dig to the bottom of the hole and find any treas. ure that may be hidden there. If there is none, he says, his efforts will not have been entirely in vain, for he will have spent pleasant summer in a delightful country and away from the torrid heat and humidity of the city.

the ordinance. said 1t was even so and more. Not alone would his ordi- nance put the lid on the "one mile long procession or pomp and pagean- try" but. also. could be invoked with equal force against the tambourine division of the local Salvation Army corps. the Douglas band playing in the city park. lodges parading on Sun day. etc, etc. Explain ng this state of affairs, he said the courts of the land do not look with much favor upon restriction of the use of the streets, but If the use of streets is to be restricted the only successful pro cedure is to make the restriction gen eral. In other words. one cannot le- gally give one institution the right to parade the streets while denying that r.ght to another.
 4 Goodness Spreads.
 Just here was where the warmth of anti-circus parad. enthusiasm be- came congealed. Moreover the gen tleman from the Second began to show signs of activity. He began charily enough but 1t wasn't long be fore he had placed his attitude square before the council.
 "If we are to shut out a circus pa rade," he said. q am in favor of a Sunday closing law that will go the limit. Treat them all alike. I'll go as far as any of you .n closing the town on Sunday. but don't want even a circus parade discriminated against"

structures and were in use during the
past season. An extension of the sys-
TEN has been completed and water will
be delivered the coming year to lands
in the vicinity of Mabton, on the south
side of Yakima River. A large waste
way below Zillah has been completed
and greatly increases the safety and
efficiency of the system. Storage has
been provided also on Lakes Kachess
Keechelus, and Gle Elum, which will
be replaced by larger permanent dams
below.
The Teton project diverts water
from Tieton River on the right bank in
the Tieton Canyon, and carries it along
the canyon wall and over the divide
into the Cowiche basin, where an area
of about 10000 acres can be watered.
The work in the canyon is largely in
rock and difficult of access, and in
wolves a large amount of tunneling.
The excavation of the tunnels has been
nearly completed and the lining of the
same is now in progress The open
canal, which will be lined with concrete
has been more than half completed, and
these works will be finished in 1909.
The waters utilized for this project
are appropriated lower down from
Matches River, into which the Tieton
flows. The water to be diverted from
the Tieton will be supplied to the prior
appropriators on the Matches by stor-
age in Dumping Lake reservoir, the
construction of which will be under
taken next year A road to this reser-
voir is now about completed.

WASTE OF WATER.

According to DR.. A. G. True of the
Department of Agriculture, there are
now about thirteen million acres of
land under irrigating bitches in the
United States and it is estimated that
the water supply available for irriga-
ton will allow that area to be extended
to fifty million acres. But if the pres
ent Wasteful methods continue this
area will have to be reduced fifteen
million acres.
Measurements made by irrigation en-
gineers and other experts show that
not one-half of the water diverted from
streams by unlined earthen bitches
reaches the land to be irrigated. An
other large part of the water is lost by
evaporation and by percolation through
the soil and still more is lost by waste
full use 1t is safe to say that no more
than one third of the water diverted
from streams serves useful purpose
on the lands for which it is diverted.
While some of this loss is unavoidable,
much of it can be prevented by better
irrigation methods.
In Southern California, where water
is scarce and of very high value, care
less use is extremely rare. The water
is carried in lined canals and is dis
tributed to the fields in underground
pipes, but it was found that there was
still a large loss by evaporation when
the water was spread over the fields.
1t has been found by applying the
water in burrows, SO that only a small
part of the surface is wet, and by fol-
lowing the application of water by
thorough cultivation, that most of the
loss by evaporation can be stopped.
