ABOUT A MILLION GALLONS
OF WATER CONSUMED DAILY

While towns all over the state
are worrying about their water sup
plies Sand Springs flows merrily on,
just as 1t always has. Employees
at the pumping station say that new
er has there been any variance in
the flow, no matter how much or
how little rainfall.
1t is estimated that about a mil
lion gallons of water are pumped
daily The exact records will not
be available until the Riverside
Light and Power Co., now in charge
of the pumping, installs a meter
which has been ordered for some
timeL At present figures are Sc
cured by an estimation of pump ca
pacity and hours run, which may or
may not be accurate. The pumps
are run about IS hours daily.

But Will Recover'-shows No Re.
morse.

Salina, July 16.-Swan Johnson
who murdered Henry Parohl Sunday
afternoon is still at st. Barnabas
hospital. He is recovering and will
live. And johnson does not like
that.
He wants to die. He says so at
frequent intervals and when the ply
sicians and nurses or the county
Officers tell him he is improving and
will soon be well, he becomes de-
spondent. His only ambition now is
to die, he says.
Nearly three days have passed
since johnson committed one of the
most atrocious and cold blooded
murders on record in this county.
If Johnson has a conscience, it isn't
bothering him. He expresses no re.
greet for what he has done. Seeming
ly he Is pleased to know that his
work was successful.
Sohnson's preliminary will depend
upon his recovery He will be ar
raigned on charge of murder in the
first degree.
Johnson has talked considerably
since in the hospital. His wounds
are not deep and it will be oaly .
short tine before he can be take.i

the blossoms are not setting any

WELLS MOTION
IN COURT HANDS
Judge Olmsted to Decide To-
morrow as to Change of Venue
Which Is Requested.

The whereabouts of the trial of P
H. Wells as to whether or not he
should be suspended from practice of
the law in this county, will be decided
tomorrow morning by Judge r. w.
Olmsted, who now has under advise
nent motion for change of venue
fled by Wells. Attorneys c. f. Dietz
and G.. w. Wood, representing the
county bar association, argued against
allowing the motion as they claimed
that it would mean the taking of the
case out of this county. They said
they were not opposed to having some
Judge other than Judge Olmsted hear
the case, but held that it would not
BE- heard legally in another county.
Wells motion was simply for change
OF venue and did not specify a mere
change in the person of the court.
