WATER MAINS IN BAD CONDITIOHL

At meeting of the Town Board
tomorrow, Saturday, night, ar
rangements will probably oe made
to hold a special election for the
purpose Of voting bonds to lay
new water mains throughout the
entire village.
1t is a we'll known fact by every
taxpayer in Eagle River that the
water mains are IN most depiOr-
able condition, and the expense
of making repairs on them costs
more every year than what the
interest and good slice of the
principal would be. For a long
time it has been known that new
water mains were needed. as the
present pipes were laid twenty
two years ago, during the sum
mer and fall of 1887, and their
usefulness is about over. The
strain put upon the pipes during
the forest fires near town year
ago, finished the work of destruc-
ton, and before another scare AXE
the one last year arrives, II would
be cheaper to lay new mains, and
the cost TO each taxpayer will not
amour. to but little, and would
hardly be felt by any.
If through the or aking of the
mains during a FIRE, the school
house. town hall, court house,
churches or part of the business
or resident districts were wiped
off the earth, by the lack of water,
the loss will be far greater than
the cost of laying new mains at
this tim {, before such a dilemma
occurs.

 But to return to the subject of han. dicap harness racing--very few in- stances were known last year of races of that kind and besides the big one at Readville and one or two smal1er affairs around the grand circuit with one on this Southern Fair Circuit, scratch races were comparatively un. known. The only big handicap race In the South last year was the one that Ben Whitehead took with Pulsus on the 2nd of October in Memphis. Starting as the scratch horse-5. .5so fastest trotter in the race and 300 feet back of the fourth horse in the race Whitehead let 'the-stallion out, closed big gap and was on even terms with the field before the stretch turn was reached and led the bunch down the During the coming season Q number of handicap races have been arranged on all of the circuits. For enc thing, experts who have studied it out have sfmplified the handicap plan. Another thing fs that 1t does away with the diver Park have seen lots, of good horses killed off before the field gets the word. The first one of these races during the coming season will be at Detroit, the club up there making ar. arrangements to hold big handicap trot
 When these handicap races were started last season the plan was to handicap horse. but experience has shown that Is too hard q test for even the fastest trotter in a mile or mile during the coming season will probably be about half of that figure and race lovers will see some novel sport in this line.

BOY GETS FOUR
 YEARS FOR ENTERTAINMENT

i Columbus. Ga, Jan. 13.-(Special.) Judge s. P. Gilbert. in Muscogee Superior Court today. sentenced E. B. Almond, former secretary-treasurer of the William Beach Hardware COmpa- ny. who confessed to embedding $15,- 900 of the company's funds. to four years in the penitentiary.
 A strong effort was made to the judge to reduce the crime to a misde- meanor and punish with a heavy fine, many influential citizens in addition to the attorneys to the Beach Hard- ware Company going before him. The young man today asked the judge to be as lenient as possible, and referred to his wife and young baby and his old mother. Judge Gilbert said that he sympathized with the defendant and his family very deeply but under his oath as judge he could not treat the crime as a misdemeanor. The judge said that the dedication amounted to S1s,OOO, of which $10.000 was paid back to the company by the young mans family.
 Almond is a member of a prominent Muskogee County family. In his state ment to the judge today he said that he did not mean to keep permanently the company's funds that he used. still another effort will be made to induce the judge to reduce his sent" ence.
