Note Of Pathos Underies the State
ments in General Orders Issued
by Department Commander
Mcdonald.

Des Moines, May 2S.-There is a
note of pathos, singular reading Of
the future, in the general orders of
Commander Mcdonald respecting the
encampment of the Iowa Grand Army
In Des Moines, June 8, and 10. He
opens his order with this statement:
1T is expected that this encampment
will be more largely attended than
any further encampment during the
remaining years of the veterans"
On the advantages Of Des Moines
as the place for holding the encamp-
ment, the general orders say: THE
city is central and there are many
inducements fof visiting 1t at this
time. The Army Post is an attraction
that many will desire to visit and 1t
will afford to many, perhaps for the
last time, the opportunity Of seeing
the colors they followed so faithfully
and periodically during the great
war"
The following specific orders are
made.
The commander of Crocker Post
No. IL will detail an officer Of the day

THE GRAND JURY IS At woRt
Case Of Sherman W. Slater is Con
tinued-Nothine on Criminal
Docket at This Time.

The district court is again in ses-
sion, it being the regular November
term and the last term to be held in
this county during the year 1910.
Judge Church was on hand promptly
Monday afternoon to take up the
work. Within a few minutes after
court convened he had the grand jury
impanneled and at work, following
which the calendar was called and q
number Of cases to be tried this term
were assigned. the first case marked
for trial being that Of Mary c. Sher-
man against Henry Slater. which is
an action for rent, brought by the
plaintiff some time ago and contin.
ued over from term to term in order
to take the plaintiffs deposition. The
case was continued again on the pros
pect OF a settlement of court. The
next case assigned for trial is that
of w. w. Wheeler versus ]. J. Cos
tello. 1t is an action brought for q
settlement between the parties. The
jury in this case rendered, verdict
for plaintiff for nominal amount. An
other case is that of Kate Costello
versus ]. J. Costello. This is a suit
in which counter claims are made by
the parties, and it probably will take
jury to settle the rights of the
parties.
On Thursday the case of W. A. Nc
Henry versus Frank Howorth is set
for trial. This is case in which the
plaintiff seeks to hold the defendant
on an agreement to pay the debt of

permanent water probably could have
been secured, induced him to abandon
the work, with the result that all of
the wells are too shallow and furn-
ish but little water.
A day or two ago the writer hereof
measured the depth of the water in the
old we'll near the electric light plant
and found three feet Of water. The
pump is so adjusted that it cannot
pump water less than eighteen inches
In depth. That leaves eighteen inches
of water from which the city can draw
it's supply. and in the nature Of
things. 1t takes but a little while to
pump the water out After this ex-
pertinent at the old well, the new wells
we're visited and the pump set in
motion to ascertain how long it would
require to pump these four wells out.
This required but thirty minutes after
the pump had been set in motion. II
the operation had been continued. the
pump would have pumped up sand
instead of water which could only
have ruined the pump.
The important question is to find a
remedy for this unsatisfactory condi-
tion. We think II the new wells were
carried down to Z depth of thirty feet
they would furnish an adequate supply
Of water for all purposes. or if a new
well. in the locality of where the other
four wells were dug last summer,
should be dug with larger reservoir
capacity and to depth of thirty feet,
that this would relieve the situation.
1t may be that the wells dug last
summer, limited as they are in d.
mensions, could not be sunk any
deeper. but new well could be sunk
Immediately if proper diligence is
shown. 1t is predicted that when the
ground freezes up the supply of water
will decrease, and If so, it means that
we start into winter with prospect
of having water famine. This should
not be and proper steps should i'm
mediately be taken to improve the
situation. We do not desire to criti-
cize anyone, but we most earnestly in
sist that something shall be done i'm
mediately looking toward an increase
of the water supply. While the pump
ing facilities are anything but perfect,
the water is pumped as fast as it ac-
cumulates and nothing but the short
