GLOBE MAY SECURE HANDSOME FREE
 FOUN TAIN NATIONAL HUMANE ALLIANCE IN COMMUNICATION WITH LOCAL
 AUTHORITIES BUILT OF MASSIVE GRANITE MUST BE ACCESSIBLE TO TEAMS FROM ALL SIDES SITE TO
 BE SELECTED
BUILT OF MASSIVE GRANITE

Within the next few months, Globe will more than likely be presented with handsome public drinking fountain, gift from the National Humane al. liance, if the proper site for the cree ton of this Improvement can be se- cured.
 The National Humane alliance has given away. without cost to the munic- qualities in which they were installed, several dozen of these fountains.
 They are built of granite, hewn out of solid piece of rock and are not only handsome in design, but praeti- eally indestructible.
 The fountain stands nearly seven feet high and the main drinking bowl, pro vided for use of horses, is six feet in diameter. The fountain weighs five tons.
 An effort is now being made to secure the. fountain by Judge J. F. Hechtman, through a close friend, who is person ally acquainted with Lewis N. Seaver, secretary of the Humane alliance.
 At the present time, not a city in the territory is in possession of one of the fountains and Secretary Seaver is very much in favor of presenting one to this city.
 ] As these fountains are constructed, packed and shipped through funds pro vided by boquest from wealthy east ern bachelor, the only expense which will be incurred by this city is in fu' nishing a site for tAe fountain and the furnishing of water to fill the drink ing bowls.
 The chief requirement regarding the | gift of the fountain is that it shall be so located that if will be accessible to teams from all sides. So far, such Z location has not been secured, al though site may be selected within a short time.
 The fountain v-o~,d be a handsome ornament to the u,ty and of great con venience to the public.
