Hendersonville, n. c., September 1s.
Upon the question whether 1t was
Wednesday or Thursday night of last
week that a woman's piercing screams
echoed tand re-echoed across the waters
of Lake Oceola. hinges now develop
ments of a far-reaching nature in the
Myrtle Hawkins mystery. 1t Was the
discovery of evidence along this line
which caused an adjournment of the
inquest this morning at the request of
Morgan Bradford. Jr, the Washington
detective. who is working on the case.
Mrs. Reuben White told an Associ-
ated Press representative to-day that
last Wednesday night she heard n wo-
man screaming, rs though in great
pain. The screaming. she says, grad
ually changed to means, which finally
died away.
Frank Brown, n negro. living near
Lake Oceola. declares that he heard a
woman screaming about midnight
Thursday of last week. and will SO
testify at the inquest Monday after
noon.

No warrants have yet been served in

Interstate Water Fight
Serious Situation

The situation in the north is
hardly less serious. The exhaus-
ton of available water in the
Greeley and Fort Collins area has
led to project to carry water
from the Laramie river across
the range and into this rich ter
ritory. Wyoming claims this wat
er as her own, partly on the
ground that Kansas took in the
first Kansas Colorado battle, and
partly on the theory that appro-
priations in Wyoming are senior
in time to those in Colorado. Th
state of Wyoming has impleaded
Colorado in the supreme court
and made the companies which
are constructing the new tunnel
parties defendant also. The state
must soon answer this suit as wed
Dependent upon the result of the
action is a project which will very
largely contribute to the area of
irrigable land and the population
of this northern territory.
On the Rio Grande the guns
are unlimbered for still another
battle. The United States govern
ment is claiming these waters for
use in reclamation project in
New Mexico, and to carry out
some treaty obligations with the
republic of Mexico. Suit is
soon to be brought by tn gov
ernment to settle the controversy.
The stake is again the agricultu-
raj progress of the state.
A similar controversy is now
threatening on the Grande river.
The attack comes from the four
sides of the state.
The defense of Colorado rests
on practically the same funda-
mental proposition of law in each
of these controversies. She af-
firms that the resources of the
state are its own to use in its
borders us it sees fit. If such be
not the case, the natural advan-
tages of her position are mean
ingless. She denies that appro-
priatiOns carry any weight beyond
the borders of the commonwealth
which authorizes them. She points
to the fact that the use of streams
for irrigation near their head
waters is vastly more economical
than their use on the lower
reaches, on account of the ere
turn waters,'' and the loss at
tached to carriage across the des-
erts. The welfare of the whole
people demands that water be
used in the most economical form.
There is little enough of it as it
is.

COMMISSIONER SELLS
 PROPOSED DEPOT SITE

As commissioner in chancery, Clerk J. H. Hartje this morning sold at public auction 14 lots in block 9, Da- vies & Garvin's annex to the city of Conway, the site recently rendered by citizens of this city to the Iron Noun tain railroad company for freight depot and switching yards. D. O.. Harton, bidding for Capt. w. w. Mar tin, secured the property, his bid be- ing $1,375. The sale through an or der of court was necessary to dispose of the interest of the heirs of w. s. Hendrickson, deceased, who owned a half-interest in the lots, the other half belonging to John R. Saunders. Attorney J. C. Clark, representing the owners of the property, was pres ent and ran the bids up to 1850.
 Whether any steps will now be talk en to secure settlement of the much discussed depot removal proposition is not known. The railroad company at one time agreed to accept the Saunders property and remove their freight depot, switching yards, etc.. from the public square to that place, but objections on the part of the con- gregation of St. Josephs Catholic church to the new location resulted in the matter being dropped.

 SERIES TO BEGIN

The first game of the intercollegi- ate series between Hendrix college and the State Normal will be played at the Normal park tomorrow after noon. and it will mark the beginning of what is expected to be the most fiercely contested series in the state this season. The rivalry between the students of the two institutions is so keen that each team is almost as anx- ious to win the local baseball honors as it is to carry off the state cham pionship.
 On the form shown, Hendrix looks to be the favorite in the series. Both their fields are extremely fast and in Roberts and Parker they have an un- usually stead battery. The whole team is quick on the bases and may be counted on to convert every possi- ble opportunity into score. Hen- drix, however, is rather weak with the stick. and this is where the peda- gogues are expected to shine. They have one of the heaviest-hitting teams ever gathered here, and, while their fielding has been rather cratic, they have in Lindsey a pitcher who is ex- pected to whiff a large number of his opponents and leave little for his team mates to do.
 The second game will be played at Hendrix park Monday and the third game at Normal park. Two other games will be arranged for the third week in May
