THEY THREW UP SPONGE

The following poem was written by
one Of the local poets after the Keio-

THEY THREW UP THE SPONGE.
Wow! Wow! Wow!
Just see what's happened now
The Keios threw up the sponge
They were afraid Of Apau!
Fire! Fire! Fire!

And Bowers turned green and sick.
For he was the umpire.
Haul In! Haul In! Haul In!
He drop the ball-we win!"
But the umpire shook his head.
And said, Jaw. beat 1t; shut up your
chin"
Help! Help! Help!
Long and loud did they yelp.
The fans from the bleachers roared:
play the game! Don't whine like u
whelp."

ENTIRE TOWN BATTLES IN
ONL Y DISTILLED WATER

CO. LINGA, Cal, July 17.-Imagine
having your morning tub" in dis
titled water taken right from the
faucet! The worlds biggest cities with
all their modern" improvements can
not equal that. 1t takes a little town
of 5000 souls, a little oil town, to do
1t. That town is Coalinga in the Coast
Range Mountains. Fresno County, Cal.
Add to this the fact that the water
Is merely a by-product of the company
that supplies it and you surely have
q peculiar combination.
The country about Coalinga has
very little rainfall. The water OBJ
tanned from wells drilled there is very
brackish and unfit to drink. This
didn't start the company that supplies
the water, however. The discovery of
oil in the vicinity some years ago did.
The work of drilling for oil requires
water for steam. A company was
started for the purpose of supplying
this water. 1t had to be pumped 1000
feet high to reach some of the drills
1t was to supply. That required very
strong pumps. To operate strong
pumps requires high steam pressure,
and that means a big exhaust. Then
1t happened!
This exhaust, some bright mind saw,
was entirely wasted. 1t might be con-

densed n the water thus formed used
for drinking and other purposes at
Coalinga.
The exhaust pipe connects with what
is similar to the worm of a still. "A
maze of over 5000 feet of pipe, the So
called "worm," is built in a huge tank.
The ordinary alkaline water that is
pumped from the wells is poured into
this tank continuously while the steam
from the exhaust pipes of the pumps
Is connected with the worm The
steam constantly is being condensed
and the clear, distilled water lows off
through a long pipe line to a reservoir
for the city, about a mile away.
Now, distilled water has a fiat taste
and the Coalingans are fastidious. So
they built a little rifle" at the end OF
the pipe line, over which the water
flows before it enters the tank, there's
by being aerated.
The possibility that foreign matter
may have entered the water while i.
passed over the rifle" caused the
Coalingans to build a filter at the put
let of the reservoir, so before it finally
enters the mains of the town it is
filtered, and as a result Of the whole
series of processes the little OF, town
has what is undoubtedly the purest
water of any community in the coun-
try.

MOTHER LEAVES CHILDREN
FOR HER ESKIMO HOME.

SEATTLE, Wash, July 11-Prefer-
ring the ways of Eskimos, with their
limited diet and comforts, to the ad-
vantages of a civilized land, a mother
of foul children has left them behind
and has gone back to live with her
tribe and revel in the cold and bleak
ness of the Arctic wastes.
This woman, her white husband, s.
Stockberger, and their children were
brought from the North for the recent
exposition. Civilization again appealed
to the man, and he decided to make
his home among white people. From
the money he had made at the expo
sition he purchased a ranch on Vashon
island. This he improved, and bade
fair to become successful.
The husband would not let the chi
dren return to the Eskimos. and she
decided to leave them. She clune
enough to civilization, however, to want
a divorce, and asked lawyers to get II
for her. AS there was no record OF
the marriage anywhere they declined tc
try, and so she took a steamer for her
former home.

WOMAN DIES OF FRIGHT
WHILE DRIVING HORSE

MOUNT HOLLY, July 17.-Miss ALA
Scott, an elderly woman, driving a
spirited horse near Jacksonville Sunday
afternoon became so badly frightened
when the animal reared at the sight
of a motorcycle that she dropped dead
in the seat of the carriage. Recently
she purchased a new horse, and yes
terday afternoon invited a woman rela-
tive to take a ride with her. They had
not proceeded far along the road when
a motorcycle came along. The noise
of the machine SO frightened the horse
that it jumped to one side of the road,
down a small ditch, and then reared
on it's hind legs and became entangled
in the harness.
The sudden shying of the horse com
pletely unnerved the woman, and with
a gasp she fell over dead on the seat.
Her companion quickly grasped the
reins with one hand and managed to
quiet the horse, while holding Miss
Scott's body with the other.
