0ApsDEN AFTER SITE FOR NEW
WATER PLANTING FOURTH OF
JULY CELEBRATION AT FORT

Gadsden, June 1S.-(Special Judge
Penn has named the commission that
Is TO appraise the property condemned
in his court for a water works site
and the assessment of damages and
valuation will be made within few
days. The commission consists OK j.
H Holcomb, c. w. Ewing and w. II.
Burnett. There is some dissatisfaction
among the citizens because OF the pro-
posed change in the site OF the Wa
ter plant, mostly because Of the ex-
pense of the change, which. It is con-
tended, the city can III afford at this
time, and as consequences there has
been some talk of abandoning The
proposition. Whether or not this IS
done will probably depend on the ind
ing OF the commission. The city has
a limited amount of money 10 spend
and if the site takes too much of It
the needed improvements can not be
made.
