PLAN TO AVOID
WATER FAMINE
Council ind Citizens Consider
Unified System
WOULD ALSO CURE SEEPAGE
FROM WATER In WINTER.
A Magnificent Plan to Supply
Water for Six Towns and Cities
In County.

AS result of the recent shutting
down of the city water supply for a
whole day, the city council with a
number of public spirited citizens,
have been trying to solve the question
which cOnfronts this city together
with other cities which must depend
on the canals for water. Under the
present condition in order to deliver
water to Twin Falls and Buhl and
Filler, the canals must carry water
the year round This has worked an
injury to the canal system and has
increased the seepage from the can
ais to the point where on some land it
is a problem. If the water for domes-
tic purpose can be provided for the
ranchers and the cities and towns
and cut off the winter flow the see
page VIII be cut out and all damage
from ice to the canal bank. These
features must be regarded in any plan
ITO procure water from the Twin Falls
canal system.
To George F. Sprague Is credited
the following plan which will do away
entirely with the possibility of having
to shut off water for domestic pur-
poses, will prevent seepage largely
and the running of water through the
largest part of the canal system dur
ing the winter months The plan in
brief which has been gone over by
Manager Harlan of the Canal company
and been corrected to apply to the
cRndatlpn of the system. is to bring
water from the Point spillway of the
system near Murtaugh in huge pipe
big enough to supply the ranchers and
the cities dependent upon the canal
for the domestic water supply. This
pipe would be placed under ground far
enough to prevent freezing in winter
From the flume every rancher desiring
water could by tapping and conveying
the water in smaller iron pipes have
pure, wholesome water at his house
The cities could be assured full sup
ply OF pure water at all times.
BY taking out the water at the point
spillway which is only a few miles
distant from the dam the chances for
shutting toff for breaks would be re-
duced to the smallest possibility. The
plan has much in It's favor and should
be carefully studied by all the citi-
zens on the tract as the solution of
the vexatious question of seepage and
winter maintainerce.
While the details and any obstacles
have not been worked out. the matter
will be carefully considered and as
soon as possible placed before the wa
ter users of the tract for their ap-
proval. The city council has placed
the matter in the hands of its legal de-
partment for investigation as to legal
ity while the city engineer will look
up the engineering features.

NARROWLY AVfRTfO DROWNING
Childish Error Spells Trouble for
Frantic Mother.

While preparing to give her infant
child bath one day last week, q
Twin Falls matron placed the babe
in the bath tub and turning on
the water to fill the same. left the
room for moment on some errand.
During her brief absence an older
child though little more than baby,
walked into the bath room and locked
the door The mother returning found
the door locked and heard the water
running in the tub. Calls to the old
er child to unlock the door brought no
results. Meanwhile visions Of the
babe drowning In the bath tub made
her frantic. After exhausting all eff
forts to make the child understand the
danger. the mother secured an axe and
burst in the door.

A TWIN FALLS SNOOKUMS
Fond Young Father Makes NeighbOrs
Lights Go Twinkle.

The people who have followed the
fortunes of the Newly Weds and their
young son Snookums in the comic sup
plement, will probably appreciate the
following true story of a Twin Falls
young father with the beloved first
born. In company with several fam
lilies the young couple with bright
baby girl occupy one of the apart
ment houses. During the supper hour
while the young mother was busy in
the kitchen the fond father sought to
keep the active baby quiet An electric
light switch on the second floor caught
the attention of the baby and to dem
onstrate the young father pulled out
the lever. Result darkness. Hastily
setting the switch and flashing the
lights back on the father sought to
turn the infantile mind to some other
channel. But the babe was not to be de-

more twinkle, twinkle little lights. In
the meantime in the kitchen the flash

apartments who wondered what was

THE TWENTIETH CENTURY CLUB
Play In Auditorium Makes Hit With
Large Audience.

The regular meeting of the general
club last Tuesday, was held at the
high school auditorium. 1t being
Junior Day the high school girls re-
ceived special invitation to hear the
program.
A delighted audience of club mem
bers and friends, and high school girls
to the number of about four hundred
witnessed the breezy, refreshing per.
formance Of the Juniors.
Mrs. Macvicar, Miss Hamilton, Mrs
Guibert, and the Juniors are to be con-
graduated upon the success of the en-
tertainment provided for the after
noon Zetta Heine and Vesta Thomas
played instrumental solos, and Jennie
Walker rendered vocal solo. Doro-
thy Adams and Charlotte Wiker sang
duet. Eleanor Deiss gave an imper-
sonation of young lady holding a
spirited conversation over the tele-
phone.
"The Sagebrush Princesses."
The opening scene was laid in the
drawing room of Mrs Diddlesex in
Boston
Fern Costello was dignity and con-
ventionality personified as Mrs. Did
0ASoSAt
Fanny, impersonated by Gladys
Dwight, was overwhelmingly naughty.
Florence Costello was excruciatingly
funny as the son Algernon in his su-
perficial efforts to protect his mother
and sister from the free and easy fam
/. ilfarity of their western friends, the
dayton girls.
The audience was convulsed with
laughter as "he" from time to time
drawled, by jove," and adjusted his
; monfcle. Beatrice Ostrander was in
conceivably boyish as Dick Mojendio
appearing In chaps and flourishing a
pistol with much bravado.
Carmen Cox was truly irrepressihle
as Madge, the younger sister of Miss
Lou Dayton, who was characterized by
Lesley Williams The Dayton sis
ters" made splendid hit as they en-
tered upon the scene In full cowboy
costume with clanking spurs and pis-
tolls at their belts, giving an excellent
Interpretation of tho manner, which
certain eastern people are supposed
to expect Of the western girl. Stella
Perrine was an ideal footman, uphold
ing the dignity of the house of Diddle-
sex to perfection.
The entire farce was screamingly
funny and was we'll carried out from
start to finish. The audience cheered
vociferously and demanded q reap
pearance Of the player, the curtains
parted; and Algernon in behalf Of the
cast bowed low and drawled by
j0ve."
The last number ON the program
was the splendid rendition Of @Come
Where the Lilies Bloom" by tho Jun
ior chorus. Mrs. Guibert choral d.

At the close Of the program mo-
tion was made and carried to give .
rising vote Of thAnks to Mr.. Lavering
for the loan Of fnrniture for the stage.

NINETY DAYS
IS SENTENCE FOR
ROOM PROWLER
DEFENDANT DECLARES HE COM.
MlTrsO BURGLARY IN ORDER
TO SECURE REVENGE

Revenge actuated Tom Fitzgerald,
a miner, in robbing two fellow room
ers over the Montana saloon Of
clothes, according to the testimony
ELECTED at his trial in the justice
court yesterday Fitzgerald was
charged with having appropriated
wearing apparel Of Pat McCabe and
the latter's roommate, and when ar
raigned he entered a plea Of guilty.
Justice of the Peace Harry Dunseath.
in pronouncing sentence, ordered
Fitzgerald committed to the county
jail for period Of 80 days.
Fitzgerald, who was arrested while
attired in the stolen garments, de
clared that he had been robbed the
previous night while intoxicated, and
that to secure revenge he entered
the rooms Of McCabe and his part
ner, and proceeded to help himself
to all the garments available. After
the trial yesterday afternoon MeCabe
returned to his rooming place and
while searching through the room
occupied by Fitzgerald for additional
wearing apparel believed to have
been stolen, he found $3.50 upon the
floor beneath the bed. The money
had evidently fallen from the pockets
of Fitzgerald and its absence gave
cause to the belief he had been rob
bed. The amount was turned over
to Judge Dunseath, who in turn de
posted it with the sheriffs office to
the credit of Fitzgerald.
