LIGHT PLANT ACCEPTED

The new city light plant is now the
property of the City of WaKeeney.
1t has been formally accepted by the
city administration from the construc-
tion company. The power has been re-
ceived from the plant for the last
several weeks and patrons have found
it far more satisfactory than the cur
rent furnished from the old plant
There are two $50 horse power boil
ers in the new plant and one 200
horse non-releasing Corlis engine, and
one 100 horse Unifow, both Chuse
manufacture. These engines have
each demonstrated their ability to
pull the entire load but both engines
are not used all the time however,
that it is not necessary. The plant
is now in fine condition and it is the
intention of Superintendent Trimmer
to keep it that way. At present two
engineers are employed, Peter De-
Boer taking the day run of twelve
hours and VIM. Perry, of Kansas City,
member of the Brotherhood of Loco
motive engineers, has the night run.
If it proves necessary later a third
man will be employed. The fires are
kept burning, or fed, by automatic
stokerS by which it is not necessary
for the engineer to open the fire box
door to throw in the fuel. He simply
shovels it into a hopper and the
stoker does the rest. About four tons
of slack coal is used each day.
The whistle at the new plant is
loud enough that it can be heard all
over the city. It is according to the
plans in the making that this whistle
will be blown at z o'clock a. M, 12 o.
clock M and o'clock p. m. and at
other times in case of fire. According
to the plans the city will be divided
into districts and certain number of
whistles will indicate the part of the
ely in which the fire is located. In
this way much confusion will be pre-
vented and citizens will know in what
part of the city the fire is located
without the use of the "Where is it''
of former times. The new plant is
already proving it's value in the line
of service.

HOLINESS CAMP MEETING,
AUGUST z TO II

The annual session of the Lay
mans Holiness Association of Amer
lea camp meeting will convene in Wa
Keeney this year on August 7th anc
will continue for ten days. The work
ers for the session will be Rev. J. G.
Morrison, of jamestown, North Da-
kota and the Rev. H. 7. Davis, of Will
more, KY. The singing will be led by
Rev. Earl Davis and Lester Nixon
There will be four services daily. For
many years these meeting were held
in the tabernacle east of Ogal1ah but
since it was destroyed by wind
storm a few years ago the sessions
have been held at the Fair grounds in
WaKeeney. We understand there is
a disposition on the part of some of
the workers for the Holiness Associ-
alton to change the meeting place to
some other location if the people of
WaKeeney do not show a greater in
terest in it, and that WaKeeney is on
trial this year IF more interest
is shown the camp will be held some
where else next year.

JUMPED FROM TRAIN-LEG
BROKE

Late Friday evening call was sent
to DIR. Burnett to administer first aid
treatment to a young man who gave
his name at Joe ComoIli, of Woodber-
ry, Vermont, who had been hurt a
short distance west of. WaKeeney a
long the railroad. Dr.. Burnett found
the young man suffering from a brolx-
en- leg and in conversation with him
he said he had been riding on the
freight with number of other men
and when a short distance west of
WaKeeney someone commenced shoot
ing with a revolver. Whether the
shooting was being done by the rail
road men or by some of the other
travellers, Comol1i did not say, but it
scared him and feeling that his life
was in danger he slid down off the
train and jumped TO the ground. He
struck the earth in such way that
both bones in the lower part of his
right leg were broken. The train
was stopped and he was taken aboard
and brought to town, receiving the
temporary care. When train No. 1O2
came through he was placed on board
and taken to the hospital at Hays
where he is being cared for and is
seemingly getting along nicely.
