ANOTHER. ELECTRIC
LIGHT PROPOSITION
KENMARE PLANT COULD
FURNISH BOWBELLS
"JUICE" CHEAPLY.

While the people of the city
all seem to favor the PROPOSE
tion Of having electric lights
in town, but at the same time
do not feel like putting up the
money to buy a plant them
selves, it just occurred to us
that arrangements could be
made with the Kenmare elec-
tric light plant owners to sup
ply uk with '*juice" at a much
lower rate than what we
could fursish it for were we to
install a plant ourselves. The
initial cost would probably be
very near the same in either
case, but the cost of maintain
.a1ce after that would be great
ly less if we were supplied by
the Kenmare plant.
The Kenmare plant at the
present time has several times
as much power as what is need
ed for it's own work at the
coal mine and the work in the
city Of Kenmare. It gets its
water. from the lake and it's
coal from the mine, making the
expense of running it very
light. The only expense neces-
sary to connect up. with Bow
bells would be running the
wires between here and the
plant, which would in no case
exceed $4,000.
This sort Of an arrangement
should prove a good one to both
the : Kenmare plant and the
citizens of Bowbells. There is
some question as to whether
the Kenmare plant would want
to put in the necessary money
required to construct the line,
and the people of the city
would probably also balk if ask
ed to come through. One way
out of this would be for the
Kenmare men to construct the
line and issue either prefer
red stock or mortgage bonds on
their plant, and we are very
confident that these bonds
could be easily sold either in
the east or right here in Bow
bells. s
Many Bowbells people who
objected to buying stock in a
plant have expressed their will
ingness to buy preferred stock
or bonds issued by someone
else. The fact. is they do not
want to be actively interested
i'll, a proposition Of this kind,
even if they did invest some
money. =. 4 Il, Ii Y s5ss

Chauffeur Runs Car Into Curb to Escape Arrest

m oNTGoMERY, ALA.-Thoughts OF
kM being arrested Just because one
failed to turn on the lights on his au-
tomobile are not pleasant ones-espe-

Henry has had the experience and

idea OF being given Joy ride into a

Patrolman Dan Dees found an auto

LIFTS A TUG OUT OF WATER
Huge Whale Tries to Wreck Vessel,
Then chases II for Half
Mile.

Baltimore, Md.-To have their yes
sci lifted three feet out of the water
and to be later chased over half a
mile by an S0-foot whale was the ex-
perience of Capt. L. M. Smith and crew
of the seagoing tug Defiance, which
reached port the other day from the
Virginia capes.
Captain Smith says the incident oc-
Cured at one o'clock in the afternoon.
while the tug was cruising between
Cape Henry and False cape. OF the
Virginia seacoast.
'I was lying In my berth at the time
and Mate Jack Reese was at the
wheel" said Captain Smith. when all
of a sudden the bow of the tug rose
In the air and dropped with a plunge
and a terrific roll. When l reached
the deck Mate Reese was trying to
steady the vessel. which was still roll
ing. and when he recovered his voice
said that he had ran over a whale.
STANDING in the pilot house. we
watched the whale. which turned
around and followed the tug for al
least half mile, then headed toward
the beach as II fatally hurt While
the whale was following the tug II
lifted about two-thirds of its body out
Of the water. The fin. huge flukes and
almost the entire head were In plair

Chicago.-It is not at all an unpleas-

shop, sit down opposite pretty maid,
and let her daily with your fingertips

a rope lasso thrown about your stom-
ach, be dragged thirty feet across

of each finger nail clipped of by a
pair of wire nippers-well, that's not
exactly an enjoyable toilette.
However, that is what happened to
two tigers and three lions at Lin
coin park the other day. The scene
was the new animal house at the park,
and Keeper Cy De Vry and seven as
sistants were in the role of manicur-
lists.
The manicuring started shortly at
ter noon, Rajah. the big Bengal tiger,
having been selected as the first sub
ject. A stage was placed against the
outer part of the cage, and on this
Keeper De Vry took his place. In his
hands he held long pole with a rope
! loop at the end OF 1t.

cage and the door was closed after
him.

Whereupon Rajah murmured.

loop over Rajah's head and shoulders
