farm work at present. The townships
are Dalton, Perry, Jefferson and
Webster.
Although farmers who have been
under the impression that the meet
ing is only for delegates from the
township associations, officials OF the
county organization want it under
stood that the meeting is being held
for the farmers themselves.
Township meetings scheduled at
present follow:
Tuesday, October 81. at Fountain
City, for New Garden township farm
ers.
Wednesday, October %, at Court
house in Richmond for Wayne town
ship farmers.

WATER COMPANY IS
GIVEN SURCHARGE
OF 7 Per CENT

Approval of a per cent surcharge
on water bills If the public service
commission will allow the water COM
pany to continue using its deprecia-
ton fund for improvements and ex-
tensions, was given by the city coun-
ell Monday night.
The water works company was or
dered several years ago to put per-
centage Of profits into depreciation
fund This amount was approximate
ly $500 a year. Instead OF putting
the $500 tn this fund, the water COM
pany spent the money for improve
ments and extensions to the plant, in
order to give the city better water
service. About $4,000 has been ex-
pended by the company in improve
ments
If the public service commission
authorizes the company to pay back
into the depreciation fund, the money
It has expended, the rate question
must come before the council again,
Say councilmen.
Increase In Capital?
According to Howard Dill, If the
commission makes the company keep
the depreciation fund intact, It will
be necessary to increase capitaliZa-
ton from $s5o.000 to $s7s,o0O. How
ever" said Dill, eff the commission
does not force US to pay back the
money we have expended, into the
depreciation fund, we will be content
to let our capitalization stand as 1t
now is, sS5O,OO0 and put the per
cent surcharge on all bills"
II the public service commission
should make the water company pay
back the money expended. into de-
probation fund, 1t would necessitate
an increase of its capitalization, which
would mean in the long run, perman-
ent increase of rates.
City Attorney Byran Robbins, and
Mr.. Hendreich, an accountant employ
ed by the city, TO go over the status
of the water company with Dill, sub
mitted figures to the councilmen,
showing why the increase should be
granted.
Since 1913, according to figures,
the company has not come within
200 of earning the 6k per cent
profit to which it is entitled, under
the provisions of its contract. On an
average the earnings have fallen ST.
2O4 yearly, said Dill, who was corob-
Grated by accountant Hendreich.

unaaIIant oldtimers.

An old papyrus text, recently un- earthed in Egypt, shows a strong bias against women. After citing a long series of unfortunate happenings in history, it bluntly charges all of them directly to the conduct and influence of woman. Then it goes on to say that If she have wealth for her ally in wickedness, the evil is double. The last line of the fragment is not entire ly legible, but appers to be of the same general tenor.

Whereas other gems, such as the ruby, the emerald. and the sapphire, owe their colors to mineral elements by which the crystals are stained, the brilliant tints of the opal are due to its structure. ever so many minute cracks reflecting lights at different angles from their edges.

SEEK TO VERIFY DEATH
Mexican Government Has zapats's
Body Photographed.

Mexico City, April 12.-(A. P.)--
Gen. Emilano Zapata, the rebel leader
of southern Mexico, news of whose
death reached this city yesterday,
was killed Thursday morning during
an engagement between his troops
and government soldiers, who had,
by n ruse, entered his camp at Haci-
enda, Chinemeca, near the village OF
Petlalcingo, Morelos.
The government soldiers, under the
command of Gen. Pablo Gonzalez,
planned to capture the rebel chief
and pretended they we're a part OF
the Fortieth regiment. which had
come to join Zapata's forces. When
Zapata was asked to review the men
he became suspicious and took with
him a large number of rebel troops.
This prevented the carrying out OF
the plan and resulted in a general
fight. Zapata fell with many of his
followers. A number of government
soldiers also lost their lives.
The government is taking unusual
precautions TO establish the fact OF
the rebel leaders death. Official
photographs have been taken or the
body, which has been viewed by
many who knew Zapata, and deposit
tions have been required from those
taking part in the battle.
