TO FLY ANOTHER YEAR.
Lucky Bob, the North Dakota Aviator,
VIII Not Quit.

VIII Not Quit.
Word has been received from Lucky
Bob St. Henry the North Dakota avia-
tor, who made such hit in this count
try last year, that he will again soar
above the clouds this year as he has
made rapid advancement in his field
out under the California skies at San
Diego this winter. St. Henry will ap-
pear at number of county fairs this
year in the state.
Announcement was made at the close
of last season that the F7ickertail avia-
tor would permanently retire and make
his future home on his ranch at Ell Pna-
tang, near Miles City, Mont. Mr.. St.
Henry had serious mishap at one of
the Montana fairs last summer after
his second appearance and it was stat
ed at that time he would quit the pro-
fession with the expiration of the sea-
son.
This latest announcement that he
will again fly this year will be met with
considerable pleasure on the part of
his many friends and admirers who are
much interested in his career and pro-
gress as a birdman.

BIG CAPACITY AND FINE
QUALITY.

La Crosse, Wis, Jan. 5.-The last leg

gument Of city officials who have been
condemning the well system of water
supply, ordered by the state rate com.
mission, after an investigation by Prof.
Charles s. slichter, and concerning
which there has been q controversy for
several years.
This is the result of tests which veri-
fed the findings of Prof. slichter and

by the city to make private investiga-
tons. A pump has been applied to test
a well recently sunk, and shows a cap.

than expected, and considerably more
than ever will be necessary to supply
the demand. The water taken from the
well is said to be Of the finest quality.

stolen new ties from the railroad com

found him and when confronted with
the evidence he paid for the stolen
property at cost prices.

difference in the color and volume of
