water from any crib in this locality is
healthful
The water company put in the emer-
gency crib last summer as a result
of the difficulty experienced last win
ter with the intake becoming elogged
with slush ice. 1t was used this morn
ing for the first time. The intake is
connected with the pipe which con-
veys water from the main crib to the
pumping station. 1t was built above
the water in order that in case of diff
ficulty the men who went out to re-
move the drift ice could work intelli-
gently. With the old crib 1t was i'm
possible to do this, as the boat was
bound to drift more less and the
men were obliged to feel" for the in
take, fishing about in the water to
seee that they were forcing the drift
ice away from the place where its
removal would do the most good.
The water stopped flowing in the
night, but superintendent Kirk was not
notified until daylight of the catas-
trophe. He proceeded at once to rem

the fact that the local water plant

MERCHANTS
COMPLAIN
ABOUT CARS

The merchants of Hammond are COM
planning bitterly that there are not
cars enough to take care of the Christ
mas shoppers who come from the
neighboring cities to trade in the Ham
mond stores.
There is a rush all afternoon and
every car coming from Whiting and
East Chicago is packed" said one of
the leading merchants today. There
ought to be ten minute service
inaugurated on all of the lines of the
Hammond. Whiting & East Chicago
railway during the rush hours of the
day"
Hundreds of people are walking,
said he, who would ride if the service
was more frequent. And 1t would
mean thousands of dollars to the
merchants of Hammond If the out OF
town shopper did not feel that he or
she would have to ride in a crowded
street car to get to our stores"
There seems to be a general belief
that Manager Green will give the mat
ter his attention as soon he is APP
prised of the facts. Another improve
ment that has been suggested is the
running of an extra car in each direc-
ton from the corners of State ane

The cars which leave for East Chi

ENTHUSIASTIC over
LAST Dividend
PIONEER TONOPAH MINING MAN
ARRIVES ON TRIP OF
INSPECTION.

Cal Brougher arrived yesterday
morning from his Oakland home and
will remain here for the next sew
eral days inspecting his different
interests Mr.. Brougher is one of
the happiest stockholders in the
Belmont property and was quite
jubilant over the recent declaration
of the 15-ecnt dividend which will
be paid ON Oceober 18th. During
his stay he will take a trip through
the underground workings of the
mine and inspect the recent develop
ments of the big ledge.
ITO my mind" said Mr.. Brougher
in discussing the dividend question,
''the next bunch of money to be
distributed will be somewhat larger.
1t is evident that the company is
endeavoring to create a regular fig
ure, and from the reports received
l understand that before the expira-
tion of the present month the Bel
mont shaft will be completed into
three-compartment affair and op-
erations should be conducted
through this working point. The
saving in the mining expenses will
prove to be quite an item and the
profit can be used in the dividend
fund"
| This is Mr. Brougher's first visit
to Tonopah for about two months
This time he has spent both al
his Oakland home and at Lake Ia
hoe, where he has handsome sum
mer residence.

WHITES ATTORNEY WILL ASK
FOR AN ARREST OF
JUDGMENT.

Judge Mark R. Averill, of the
Fifth Judicial District court, yester-
day announced Saturday, Septem-
Der 10, as the date set for the
pronouncing of judgment, which in
cludes the fixing of sentence for
Frank White, who was found
guilty of murder in the second de,
gree by jury Wednesday night.
AS was stated in yesterdays issue
of this paper, the penalty ranges
from ten years to life Imprisonment
and it would be hard to surmise
the extent of the penalty that will
be imposed.
Before the jury report was re-
turned formal notice was given by
Judge J. A. Sanders. who repre-
sented White. that the verdicr would
not pass unchallenged. 1t is prob
able that the first legal technicalit.
to be invoked will be a notice fol

to set aside the verdict Both requi
sitions will probably be made at tn,
