SIPHON 1,15O FEET
UNDER TIE HUDSON

New York, Feb. 8.-Another step has
been taken toward providing new wa
ter supply that will insure this city
against the possibility of famine, and
before this year ends water will be
brought from Esopus creek, 127 miles
away. In order to reach the Croton re-
servoir, from which the water will
come to the city, it was necessary to
bring it under the Hudson river by
means of siphon that dips down 1,15o
feet below the surface of the. water at
Storm King, one Of the famous noun.
tains above West Point. It was the
completion Of the siphon, or, rather,
the connecting of two bores started
from opposite sides of the river, that
caused Mayor Gaynor, Police Commits
sioner Rhinelander Waldo and other
city officials to journey to Storm King.
After descending in cage 1850 feet
the party walked part way under the
river, and then Mayor Ga,Aor, clad in
oilskins, threw switch that exptode'1
the blast that tore down the frail bar
rier of granite and connected the two
bores. So accurately had the engin-
eers made their calculations that the
two levels were only an eighth Of an
inch apart. The, siphon will cost 49,
100000 when completed. Because Of
the enormous pressure of the mighty
underground river, due to the drop it
must take to 60 under the river, the
tunnel had to run through solid granite
To find such rock under the river was
so difficult that it took two years and
borings at "a different points before the
engineers found fevora5i conditions
Work on the. shaft began in 1907 and
the actual tunneliry in January IF last
year. When it has progressed about
300 feet stream of water broke il
and threatened to fill it. It took si1
months to pump it out.

LEADING WILSON SUPPORTER
SAYS UNDERWOOD WILL WIN

Hon. w. T. Lane, of Americas, sew
eral times a member of the leglsla-
ture from Sumter county, a we'll
known lawyer and a strong Wilson
supporter, has practically given up
the fight in Georgia, and now express
es the opinion that Underwood Will
carry the state.
Mr.. Lane has taken prominent
stand in politics in his section, gets
around considerably over his congress
sional district, and his judgment can
not be questioned
He says Georgia may, and proba-
bly, will, follow the example OF Ala
lama, and declare for Underwood,
Here is Mr.. Lanes statement, IN
which he makes this interesting ad-
mission as it appeared in Wednes-
DAYS Americas Times-Recorder.
Il believe Wilson is the best candl-
date, in the sense that he is most
likely to be winner before the peo-
ple,, said w. T. Lane, the well-knoWn
attorney yesterday, "but I am free to
confess that while I will support VIII
son. the outlook favors Underwood
in this entire section of the state, and
probably throughout the state. l can
readily appreciate that the Under
wood sentiment is developing
strength rapidly. But while Georgia
may, and probably will, follow the ex
ample of Alabama and declare Under
wood to be its preference, l am still
free to say that l believe that Wilson
is the most available candidate for
the party to nominate. Underwood is
a man of fine capacity and undoubted
experience and ability as political
leader and statesman, but I cannot
believe that the north is yet willing
to accept a southern man. 1t seems,
though, that he will have some sub
stantial backing in the convention.
Georgia looks very much like sending
an Underwood delegation, il fsggyIEzept--

FAVORING UNDERWOOD
STRAWS SHOWING THE WINDS
AS EXPRESSED JUST BEFORE
THE CAMPAIGN BEGAN.

Atlanta, Ga.--As an evidence of the
unanimity with which Georgians are
supporting Oscar Underwood for pres
ident, Manager Hutchens gave out at
headquarters four incidents, which he
declares are significant
The Democratic executive commit
tee of Worth county met the other
day to determine on plans for the
presidential primary. A vote was ia
ken and it was found that the COM
mittee stood 20 for Underwood and l
for Wilson. This report was sent to
me from three different sources.
During the primary held on the
9th in Pike county, those who voted
in the second district were asked to
write down their preference for pres
ident and when the vote was count
ed it was found that it was Under
wood ", Wilson I, Clark 1. This in
formation comes from the justice of
the peace who presided at the cleo
ton.
"In Waynesboro recently there
was held a mass meeting of citizens
to select a new Democratic executive
committee. After the new commit
tee was chosen, the mass meeting en-
dorsed Mr. Underwood without a dis
senting vote.
"The organizers of the Underwood
club at Wellston in Houston county,
report that there are 106 voters in
the district and that 1903 have signed
their names in the Underwood club.

UNDERWOOD TO GET
80 PER CENT. OF VOTE
Prominent South Georgian Gives His
Views.

Hon. A. T. Woodward, one OF the
most prominent lawyers in south
Georgia, who is we'll known and liked
by a host of friends, writes from
Valdosta to the Underwood headquar-
tiers in Atlanta:
Underwood will get whatever vote
is polled in Echols county. He has
the support of such men as Judge T.
G. Ham, Hon. W. c.. Howell, Hon. j.
F. Nall. Hon. Bryant Corbett and 9TH
ers there and in that section. l am
not exaggerating, but it is my opinion
and the opinion of others that
Lowndes county will go for Under
wood if a full vote is polled by at
least 400 or SEQ majority. 1t looks to
me like almost every man see is for
Underwood The Judge OF the supe-
rior court, the judge of the city court,
chrk, tordinary, tax receiver, sheriff,
about three-fourths of the lawyers,
nearly every prominent business man
I'M town Cyaldosta) and in the coun-
ty: every shank president, three out
of four cashiers OF the banks, all the
doctors.h and it is the same way from
every. section. of the 'couftiss Is ..cah
hear from 1t looks to me like we
will get Is per cent. 1 heard a
prominent man say on the street that
he had just returned from Thomas
county, that Judge Charles Hansell
said, in his opinion, Thomas county
would vote rs per cent. of her votes
for Underwood. I heard a gentleman
from Berrien county say that Under
wood would carry that county and
would also carry Tiff and Clinch."

HOW OLD PEOPLE
May Prolong Their Lives

At an advanced age waste is more
rapid than repair. The organs act
more slowly and less effectually than
in youth. The circulation is poor, the
blood thin and watery, the appetite
poor and digestion weak.
We want to say to every aged per-
son in this vicinity that Vino1, our de-
Iicious cod liver and iron tonic with
out oily will prolong life. 1t creates
an appetite, aids digestion and makes
good blood. In this natural manner
Vinol retards waste and replaces
weakness with strength, giving new
life to the worn system.
If people in this vicinity only real
lied how Vino1 invigorates old people
we would not be able to supply the
demand
Try a bottle of Vino1 with the I'm
derstanding that your money will be
returned if it does not help you.
