The First Sunrise

NJ first observation Of the moon was
1NA made on JulyS, the day after new moon,
when j, appeared as a silver crescent out
lined against the gray-bluc sky. The inner
edge Of the moon was broken and uneven,
continuing beyond the horns ike line of
silver partly cncircling the faint outline Of
the Old moon. Had the sky been clear, 1t
would have been possible TO see what IS
Familiarity termed the Old Moon IN the New
Moon arms. Unfortunately, on this occa-
sion. Slight haze made it impossible.
Otherwise, the outline OF the features Of the
old moon as vet untouched by the sun S
ray, would have been family outlined by
means Of reflected sunlight from the earth, or
ea-tn~hinc.

earth us moon in the lunar sky. Its diam

view, it required but a slight effort Of the
imagination 10 suppose oneself actually on

Wonders of the Landscape

landscape as II comes into view after sun

telescope ever made in the direction of this
distant world. For him the vast plains
were seas and oceans and BAYS, resembling
such formations on the earth. and later they
were named by such fanciful titles as the
Sea of Serenity, the Sea of Tranquility, the
Lake Of Dreams, the BAY of Rainbows, and
the Ocean Of Storms Yet. as q matter of

to Granite creek. That work Is now
under way, or is soon to be started,
and as that link is only some twelve
miles in length. sixty or ninety days
ought to be the limit to the further

ture performance does not come di-
rectly to this office from the fountain
head, as the fountain head is chary
in giving out Information as TO the in
tention Of the construction depart
ment. but 1t drifts in through chan
nels which II is to be expected that
authentic news of that character
would flow. Some hitch may occur in
present plans, for things of this earth
are uncertain. especially those things
pertaining to the doings of transport
alton companies, yet the outlook Is
very favorable for the commencement
and completion of construction of the
branch before the first snow fall. II

WATER WORKS COMPLETED.

Tuesday for the first time water
was pumped into the concrete reser-
vOir on the hill in the west part of
town. an adjunct to the new water
system and the original contract of
the Oliver Bridge company in its bid
for the installation of water works,
was completed. 1t has proved to be
an expensive necessity, as it is al
legged by those who should be in a
position to know that the system has
cost the town $4,000 more than it
should have cost. Deponeth cannot
say who, if any particular individual,
is at fault 1t is what new municipal
tiles pay at the outset of their careers
for experience. Nothing is now to be
gained by either deploring the unnec-
essary loss or finding fault with igno-
rant management. The main system
complete according to original
plans and contract, and so far as 1t
goes Oroville has a splendid gravity
system, both for domestic purposes
and for fire protection. While the
pipes are supplied from the reservoir
at an altitude sufficient to give
heavy fire pressure, If necessary con-
nection can be made directly with the
pump, so that under no emergency
need there ever be a shortage OF wa
ter. A system was absolutely neces-
sary to meet the requirements OF
growing city, and it has been installed
with a consideration of the future as
we'll as the present. as it is of a ca
pacity sufficient to meet the require
ments of a place many times larger
than the present OrOville.
