WONT SELL WATER
TO NON-REs|DENTs
Committee Members Say Rich
mond Has Barely Enough
for Own Use.
HIGHLAND PARK HEARD
Send Delegation Asking for Sup
ply at Same Cost Charged
to Residents.

That Richmond needs better water
facilities for the benefit OF it's own
citizens. and consequently cannot ar
ford to spare the pressure necessary
to supply the fluid to suburbs. was
the decision of tha committee on wa
ter Thursday night. after an extended
debate on the proposition to sell city
water to Highland Park. The mo-
ton was tabled.
The matter was brought before the
attention of the committee several
weeks ago. 1t was referred to a sub
committee. who returned recon-
mendation that the water be sup
piled and that Highland Park be
charged at the rate of rs cents per
q. 200 gallons.
Residents OF that suburb consider
ed this price exorhirant, and ac-
cordingly they sent q delegation who
appeared before the committee Thurs
day night and urged that they be
4iven the water at the same cost
charged to bona fide Richmonders.
One OF the chief reasons on which
they bAsd this request was that they
Intended laying their own mains and
that these would be or value to the
city ir case Of possible future annex
alton. It developed. however. that
the mains are to be paid for by the
Notation OF q bond issue. and that II
Richmond should annex the suburb
the former would have to assume the
indebtedness for those bonds. This
tended to nullify the arguments OF

the delegation, and after statements
had been made by several committee
members, including Chairman Nor
gan II. Mills, who explained that
the city is supplying its residents with
water practically at cost and that
there is no surplus water, the matter
was laid on the table.
Regarding this same lack of sur
plus, Superintendent Davis, of the
water department. urged that an ad-
ditional electric pump be installed In
the West End. That section has
grown, he declared. until the pumps
already installed must work to their
fun capacity. The committee passed
a resolution recommending that sl4,-
goo of the unexpended balance from
the $4,000 bond issue recently float
ed for new pumping plant be trans
ferred for the purpose suggested by
Mr.. Davis.
Mr.. Davis also made a brief ad-
dress praising William Lawton. Jr.r
assistant superintendent of the wa
ter department. The latter was re-
elected to his position. Mr.. r, A.

WASHINGTON. u. c.. June 90
Another OF loves young dreams

morning, when fourteen-y ear-old
Alice Hicks and Richard Ayers. twen-
ty-three years old, came faqe TO face
on Pennsylvania avenue with the
girls uncle. r, L. Bond. who had
been searching for them most OF the
night.
MIR, Bond gaze Cupid a severe Jolt

soon dispelled,
Ayers was employed as manager
of the farm owned by the girls

from Orange Courthouse, Va. He
had been working fox Mrs. Hicks.
who had been a widow for the lass
three years, and while he always dis
played considerable interest in Alice,
Mrs. Hicks never suspected that ne
was in love with her young daugh-

learned or the elopment.
Elopemcnt.
Yesterday Alice told her mother
that she was going to spend the
night at her uncle's house. Mrs.
Hicks called up Mr.. Bond later in the
evening and found that she had not
been there. Inquiry at the station
DEVELOPED that the girl and Ayers had
boarded "a train for Washington. Mr..
Bond got the next train. He notified
the police as soon as he arrived here
and then started out to find the cou-
Pile himself.
He was rewarded for his efforts
shortly after o'clock yesterday
morning. Ayers and his bride-to- be
were, the most surprised couple in
Washington when Mr.. Bond stepped
up to them. Alice had decided that
maybe she wasn't sure about want
ing to get married after all.
''Oh. uncle, take me pack home. :"
she said. throwing her arms about
Mr.. Bond.
Ayers wasn't quite so enthusiastic.
1t Is a pretty serious offense TO tlope
with a fourteen-year-oid girl In Vir-
ginia.
My life is yours said Ayers. his
knees shaking SO that he had con-
siderable difficulty in keeping his BAD
ance.
Romance Dimmed.
y The romance OF real, sure-enough
elopement had dimmed before the
eyes of the young couple. A four
n-year-old girl who looks at least
sixteen thought only OF her mother
and decided that home was the best
place In the world after all. while
Ayers was brought to q realization
OF the fact that an elopement was
one of the real serious things In
which a man could get involved.
In the office OF Police Captain
Hollihberger, Mis- Bond began to
figure how the AFFAIR could best be
settled for all concerned.
