BIG RESERVOIR AT
HURLEY COMPLETED
VIII Supply Water for the
Town and Chino Com
PAW Mill.


Hurley, n. M. June 14.-The large
concrete reservoir, with a. capacity of
$780, 900 gallons. to contain the water
supply for the concentrating mill OF
the Chino Copper company, has. been
completed The pipe lines from the
sources of the water supply at Whis-
key creek, Cameron creek and B.
ranch pumping stations are about all
laid and water will be turned into the
reservoir in very short time The
steel standpipe for domestic water
supply of the town has also been COM
pleted and the machinery for the
pumping station at Apache Tejo, four
miles south of. Hurley, where the do
nestle water supply will be obtained,
is now being installed.
The old railroad station at Hurley
has proved inadequate to handle
the large volume of-business and the
Santa Fe system is erecting new and
much larger depot near the present
site, and the old depot will be aban-
doned. As soon as the new station is
finished q new residence for the agent
will be constructed.
The efforts that have recently been
made to obtain better passenger train
facilities have borne good results. Eff
fectiTe Sunday, a new schedule has
been adopted on this branch of the
Santa Fe which 1T is hoped will do
away with the numerous complaints
that have been made heretofore of bad
service.

The land comprises three townships

eral wells were started. These wells
all went down to fine water, Of which
there seems to be a bounteOus under
ground flow.
When the land office officials found
that there were going to be so many
applications for entry. 1T was decided
best to issue consecutively numbered
tickets to the applicants, these tickets
to be called in numerical order when
the office opened this morning. The
person holding ticket No. 1 would have
the first chance at the land, provided
he was in line when his number was
called Otherwise the next number
would be called and he would lose MS
place.
In order not to miss the opening,
there were several of the applicants
who formed in line before daylight this
morning and kept their places until 8
o'clock There was no disorder in con-
nection with the opening. The filings
made were ss agricultural land.
