ORDER ISSUED TO
CANAL COMPANY

The Twin Falls Canal company is or
dered by the public utilities commission
of this state to proceed forthwith to
make the connection asked in the petit
ton of the Twin Falls Water Works
company with its canal near the city
of Twin Falls, thereby conveying to
the reservoir of the company the water
necessary to fill and keep it filled. The
commission handed down this order to-
day. The complaint of the Twin Falls
Water Works company was recently
heard in this city.
The Twin Falls Water Works com
pany asked in it's complaint that it be
permitted to make 16-inch main
connection with the canal of the Twin
Falls Canal company to work out a
system and plans so that water can be
conducted to consumers in Twin Falls
for drinking purposes. The company
requested the canal company to permit
the connection to be made, but the
canal company refused on the grounds
that its irrigation system was built un-
der the terms of the Carey act to water
certain lands and 1t did not have the
right to allow the water to be used for
any other purpose. The Twin Falls
Water Works company then appealed
to the commission In its findings to-
day the commission orders as follows:
"It Is therefore ordered that the de-
PENDANT, the Twin Falls Canal COM
pany, a corporation, and all and every
of its officers in charge of said cor
poration or in the management thereof

| full capacity from defendants sad ca
nal to the reservoir of complainant de-
scribed In the map attached to com
claimants complaint, marked Exhibit
! A." and that the water in said pipe line
| y hen so connected shall be permitted
to CIV without hindrance during the
present summer season, or until further
order In the premises; that the com
planant be and 1t is hc1 eby required tc
make such connection of its said pipe
lire with said canal IN a scientific an6

said canal by reason of said connec-
ton; the manner of making said con
nection and the result by reason of the
same with reference to its sufhciencl
and safety to be reported by the com
plainant to this commission as soon a!
the same is completed.
1T is further ordered that the com
plainant win at all times regulate The
water flowing in said 16-inch pipe s,
that no more water win be conveyed
to its reservoir than is necessary 70
the needs of the city of Twin Falls anC
it's inhabitants. and will regulate thu
use of water by it's patrons aforesaid

A BOUT a hundred years or SO
a ago, in a central Western state
n there lived a man named Robert

DOO nuuQANN gCaio VI ~
a ago, in central Western state
n there lived man named Robert
Hanna.
SO brave was he, and so wise with
all, that he was made d general and
he served his country faithfully.
One of the relics of his bravery
which his family cherish Loyalty IS
a British sword. Perhaps you won
der how General Hanna, alone, cap
tured British sword-listen-this
is the story:
One day, when everything was
very quiet and there was no sign of
British about, General Hanna (who
was not yet general then by the
way) found he must visit his home
and attend to some business matters.
He secured leave OF absence and
started on the long walk home. just
as he had passed we'll out from the
woods and rounded the bend of the
road into the open country, he heard
behind him the sound of horses. By
the thud, thud on the ground he
could tell there were many, but
whether they were friends or British
there was no way of knowing. 1t
was necessary to hide till he made
sure. Looking hastily about he spied
a log little way from the road and
half hidden by high weeds. He ran
to It and hid himself-not one sec
ond too soon; for, peeping out he
could plainly see by the scarlet coats
that the soldiers were British men:
About a hundred marched by with
never a glance towards the log he
hind which Hanna lay hid. At last
all were passed and everything grew
still. "Ail the same" thought Hanna
TO himself, "I'll lay right here a
while till I'm sure there are no
stragglers following the army
Indeed it was we'll he did, for
very soon a single British soldier
came trotting along. Just at that
very minute -utiful deer dashed
across the roat. The soldier fred
once = twice - three times - but
missed, and the deer dashed madly
