fine rally here yesterday afternoon.
The directors, parents. pupils and
teachers gathered In the M "a church.
The screen work Of superintendent

One grand sunset scene on the PEG
catonica river which boys and
girls enjoy when homeward bound,
moved superintendent Kern to quote
Bars of Gold Athwart the Clean and
then he said he wanted to get sum
set in North Dakota wheat fields.
Along with that he might quote our
North Dakota poet, Jimmie Foley,
whose phrase is fitting:
And at eventide a glory on sun and
sky and sod
That bids me bare my head in homage
and gratitude to God"
Mr.. Kern's text was Luther Bur-

In taking his new charge at Cham
paign, DIR. Adams received the urani-
nous call OF the entiSG congregation
OF the Champaign church and feels
that he goes to a much larger field.
\ In leaving the city the local pastor
takes with him the highest admira-
ton or the people. He has during his
stay in Fargo done a great deal for the
congregation and the city at large. He
built the present handsome ediflce that
the church uses for home and has
greatly increased the Membership of
the church. His work over the city
generally has been very much appre-
ciated and he has been especially In
terested in the moral tendencies OF the
students and the working classes.
The members of the church will hold
big rally day Sunday, at which time
the entire congregation will be Off
cially told Of the situation confront
Ing the church regarding its pastor.
Funds vii be raised and every effort
will be put forth to place the church
in position to welcome new rector

It is not known as yet when DR..
Adams will leave the city. Securing
new pastor for the local church will
have great deal TO do with the time
of his Ieaving.

Big Power and Water Project.

J. H. Hayes and Robert T. Waters,
 who have been prospecting on Trout Creek, h the eastern part of this county the past two months, are in Kingman and have incorporated con- pany for the purpose of financing big power project on that stream. They have located a number of mining claims and power site on the creek, where they expect to build dam and conserve the waters of the stream for power, irrigation and mining purposes. They estimate the run of water in the stream at 1900 miners inches at all seasons, although it will exceed that amount during the rainy season.
 The projects is one of the best in- vestments that has been placed before the people, as it will be easy of con- summation, and ready sale of power can be had not only in the neighbor- hood of the dam, but in the whole sur rounding country. The stream was examined several times the past three years for power purposes and the en- gineers in every instance reported fa- vorably on the project.
 Benj. Mossman, of Phenix. a we'll known attorney of the Department of Justice, R. E. Williams and Clarence Johnson, special officers of the Indian Department, were in Kingman several days this week. There is much specu- lation regarding the purpose of the visit of these gentlemen, especially at a time when the Interior Department is advertising for proposals for the installation of big power plant in this section for irrigation purposes. l he gentlemen, accompanied by c. E. Shell, superintendent of the Truxton Canyon Indian school, and P M. Son. CTS, farmer at that institution, made an examination of lands in the Sacra- mento valley Thursday last. MT. Shell has been making representations to the Indian office to gradually move the Indians onto lands in the Big Sandy valley and provide water neces- sary to irrigate the bench lands along that stream.
