Think They Have
COunterfeiterS

TACOMA, Feb. 1S-In the arrest OF
G.. A. Cook Earl Jeffries, I4ottie Jef-
ries and Pauline Crook, who recently
arrived from San Francisco, detectives
believe they have a quartet that mas
flooded the Pacific coast cities with
counterfeit coins from San Francisco
to Puget Sound. Spurious $5 and SlO
gold piece were found in their pos
session. The secret service OF the
treasury department has been looking
for counterfeiters for weeks.
The spurious coins are so near per-
fection that they battle the skill OF
bankers and treasury officials. While
the evidence is thus far circumstantlal,
the police have sufficient facts TO holo
the quartet until the government Of
1icers take up the case.

Heavy Rain Falls for Hours

Water superintendent T.. A. Knight
returned last night from the headworks
of the city water system, where he had
been for some time supervising the
work of preventing any damage from
threatened high water in the creek at
the intake. Last night and the night
before rain fell in torrents, keeping it
UP for several hours, but other than a
moderate rise in the volume of the
stream and the washing from the hill
sides of a generous quantity Of dirt
and debris, nothing serious resulted.
Most of the snow has disappeared
from the lower hills, according to Mr..
knight, although farther back there
is still considerable on the ground.
This is going off gradually, and with
the heavy rains falling most heavily
on the lower slopes of the mountains,
will remain for several months yet.
In speaking of the rains of the past
few days above the headworks. Su-
I.perintendent knight said the down.
pour was one of the heaviest he ever
witnessed in the Blue Mountains, and
for duration broke all records.
The mud which entered the city wa
ter system is but another evidence to
Mr. Knight of the necessity of stor-
age reservoir above the city, into
which the supply might be turned
while clear, and retained for use, when
the supply had to be shut Off owing
20 incidents such as were recorded
during the past week. With the res
ervoir in use, it would be possible the
moment mountain storm affected the
creek, to shut off the supply going
into the reservoir, allow the muddy
water to run off through the sluice-
gates, and at the same time give the
! city the regular volume of water.
