Contrary to the general belief when
the announcement was made yester-
day that the supreme court of the
state had reversed the decision of the
lower court in the famous water case
of the Allen Ditch company VS. the
Henrietta Milling company, there Is
no decisive victory for the latter III
the opinion, but there is embodied in
il a decision that will have a sweep
ing effect on all water litigation in
Guiding jhat now pending in the ad-
judication Of the rights of the 800 or
more water users in this county.
Copies of the opinion We're receiv-
ed by attorneys for both sides this
morning and it was learned that the
supreme court, while reversing the
decision of the lower court and dis
missing the case, found that neither
side in the suit had made out case
because Of the fact that they had
failed to describe definitely how much
water they claimed with their water
rights, i. .. they had only stated in
a general way how much water their

That the murder and suicide COM
mitted by Mrs Mamie Myrtle Kyle
at Milton yesterday morning was the
result Of deliberate premeditation is
proved beyond a doubt by discoveries
made since the tragedy. Not only
did she plan her own obstruction
after having taken the life of Joe
Harper but she made careful prep
arat ons SO that her death would be
certain. If bullets had have failed
to end her life she would undoubt-
edly have resorted to poison.
The revolver with which she COM
mitted the double tragedy was of the
Iver johnson make and 3S calibre
and had been purchased together with
six cartridges the night before. Two
of the cartridges were found in her
hand bag after her death. Besides
securing the revolver, she had sent
her l2-year-old son to the drug store
the night before to secure a vial of
carDol.c acid with which she undoubt-
edly intended to complete her self
destruction if the bullets failed.
Motive Only Surmiscd.
The motive of the terrible double
tragedy is stll clouded and will prob
ably never be entirely cleared. That
tsiero was some degree of intimate re-
lationsh,p between the two victims
seems indisputable and yet if there
was any scandal connected with this
relationship, It was not widely known
for the dead woman bore a good rep
utation among her neighbors.

her former husband was building a
house when the divorce was granted,
states that he attempted at that time
to smooth matters over but was con-
WINGED that the wife was too we'll ac-

Kyle lived during the past ten
months, is unable to throw much
light on the matter. He declares

Looked to Heaven.
She walked rapidly to the waiting
place for the cars which is the Foun-
tain on Main street. People there de-
clare that as she approached she was
seen looking to heaven and mutter-
| ing to herself but nothing else strange
was noticed in her demeanor. She
entered the car with Mrs. J. D. Bird,
while the conductor was engaged in
turning over the seats for the return
trip.

Must Measure Water.

According to Col. j. II. Raley, one
of the attorneys for the Allen Ditch
cmpany, this finding is a most i'm
portant one because. it means that in
all future cases of water litigation the
exact number Of inches of water
claimed will have to be stated and
that all water users hereafter will be
required to install and maintain meas
uring boxes TO detcrmine this amount.

Neither Party Favored.

The opinion of the supreme judges
simply puts the two contesting COM
panies on the same basis of all other
water users in the county and theis
rights will be adjudicated along with
many others. As regards the prior
ity of the rights of the two COM
panies, jhe court held that riparian
deeds given to the Henrietta Milling
company do not entitle the company
to use all of the water required be-
fore the Allen Ditch company can di-
vert any from the river. However.
the whole case was dismissed with
out cost or disbursements and with
out prejudice to any other further
suit which either party may deem it
advisable to institute concerning the
matters in dispute. The costs in the
lower court, which amounted to about
$1,000, We're however, assessed to the

paving the way for a complete ad-

cluding the suits filed by the gov
ernment recently, the exact amount
of water claimed must be defined.

people and all children do better in

The "lIiad" Not a Myth.


The fall of Troy after II ten year
siege by the Grecian princes about 1854
b. c. has long been considered as a
rather mythical foundation for Homer's
immortal epic. the "Iliad." But in 1876
the excavations Of Schliemann on the
reputed site of Troy brought to light
under the ashes of two superintendent
fortress cities the remains answering
to the descriptions of Homer and a

Meteoric Showers.

How many know that the earth is
getting larger each year from the fall
of meteoric matter on its surface and
that such matter is Of no small
weight? One hundred tons day Is
the estimate made by Young This.
he says, would make layer one inch
thick over the entire earth in 1,000.-
100000 years if we assume this me-
teoric matter to be three times as
heavy as water But another effect
has to take place at the same time.
As the earth is getting larger the force
of gravity gets larger. and we are be-
ing attracted with more force toward
the sun. But the centrifugal force
keeping us away from the sun gets
much greater, too, and, in fact, more
so than the suns gravity. the result
being that we are gradually increas-
ing our distance from the glowing orb.

Antiquity of the Senate.

The senate is historically much older
than tn over house. or house Of rep
resentatives, as 1t is called in our

while as yet there was no such thing
as a science Of government, the tribe
was wont to look to its old men, on
account OF their wisdom and expert
ence. for advice in all matters per-
tanning to the tribe, and those old
men were the first senators. The
word senator comes from 'senis, -
meaning old. AS civilization advanced

of the old men. and when by and by

Dickens Literary Gains.

subject of Dickens literary gains.
Dickens is stated TO have died leav-
ing earnings that often accrue TO a

bish Dickens left $4,000 in round
figures. and this did not include con-
siderable sum of money that he had
settled some years before his death.
His readings nS5S-G9l had brought in
about $4,000. 1t is forgotten that
Dickens began life without one penny
and that every farthing he spent or
gave away or left was earned by him
self, only excepting $4,000 which was
bequeathed TO him by friend about
two years before his own death. Dick
