CITY WATER
PIPELINE
Mention Project at Mass
Meeting Held in Mandan
Earlier in Week

A project to build water pipe
line from Bismarck to supply Man
dan with water pumped by the Bis
marck waterworks was discussed a
mass meeting held in Mandar
Elks' hall Monday night.
The proposed pipe line would cos
approximately $4,000, it was esti
mated by NJ. c. Heinsohn.
High points in the water crisi.
which confronts Mandan as a result
Of defects which have developed ir
the Mandan city reservoir are citec
by The .Mandan Pioneer as follows
I. If the big reservoir on the
hill lasts through the winter we
will be lucky.
g "An eventual filtration
plant would require the 100000
gallon reservoir proposed and we
must build not only to ensure
clean water but for fire protec-
tion.
3. "The present bonded in
debtedness Of the city is $lO3,-
900 and without special cleo
tion raising the debt limit to
eight per cent of the assessed
valuation of $2,923,3l4, we could
not issue bonds for over $4,000,
while the improvements needed
will run $4,000.
4. "The special assessment
system of paying for the new
plant would be the most salts
factory as one fifth of the whole
cost would be met by general
taxation. the balance by those
benefited.
S. 1T is too late to give 20
days notice of election, hold an
election and then start work so
that concrete would be laid be-
fore freezing time.
6. "There is $1,000 profit
shown since the first of the year
in the operation of the water
works system receipts above
the labor and power cost.
"The city still owes $4,000 on
the waterworks plant.
Z. "Pure dirt was put into the
concrete in the present large re-
servoir when it was built, in
stead Of washed gravel.
8. "Outstanding bonds of the
city never will be paid unless
all Of the back taxes are collect
ed and all taxes collected in the
future. The city has taken steps
to sell for taxes all property on
which levies have been unpaid,
but such sale cannot be held be-
fore next September"

Weather Halts
New Channel Try

Boulogne, France. Sept. 2.-(R-
Gertrude Ederle's hope of another
try at the English Channel this year
now is rather faint.
She has been postponing her start
from day to day in the face Of
weather conditions so unfavorable
that even the channel steamers have
been delayed in their crossing. To-
day the weather seemed to be mod
Grating, but the sea was still rum
ming high and the wind was getting
stronger.
There appeared no prospects of q
start tonight and little chance Of
getting away tomorrow morning un-
less the weather Unexpectedly
changes for the better.

Geneva Switzerland, Sept. 2.-LP)-

was convened here today under the
presidency of Aristide BRAND

Neither the British nor Turks
were ready to discuss their dispute
over the Mosul Oil region, the big.
gest question expected to come be.
fore the present council, and the mat.
ter was postponed until tomorrow
The territory in dispute was part
of the former Turkish empire, but

Today's meeting Of the council was
limited to the submission of reports
and resolutions referring to the
league assembly.
People from many lands saw the

outside every available seat had been
assigned to delegates and newspaper

TWO DEATHS IN HAWAII REVIVE
OLD POISON FISH TRADITIONS

Honolulu, July l8.-(4)-The death
recently Of two Chinese, which was
attributed to the eating Of the fresh
puffer or balloon fish, has caused a
dispute as to whether the fish, a
fairly common variety in Hawaiian
waters, is poisonous in itself or be
came so through poisonous seaweed
eaten by the fish, or through i'm
proper methods Of preparation. The
occurrence also has revived some in
teresting legends among the Hawai-
ians.
The Queens Hospital, in a bulletin
issued after exhaustive examination.
declares that the six balloon fish
which were supposed to have caused
the death of the two Chinese were
not poisonous. The bulletin explains
further that it is possible that these
fish at certain times or places eat a
poisonous seaweed. The hospital
points out also that there is a variety
Of the fish, comparatively rare, which
is poisonous, with a secretion similar
to the poison of certain toadstools,
and that on the island Of Molokai it
is a well known fact that certain fish,
such as the ordinary harmless ulua,
if taken on one side of the island,
are poisonous, but if caught else

where are wholesome food. The
mullet is said to be poisonous in
Molokai waters at certain times of
the year, and to produce choking.
dizziness and terrifying dreams.
The legend is that certain gods
came at various seasons to live at
the seashore and while they remained
on the shore of certain bay the
fish were poisonous to man. "The
true explanation" say the hospital
chemists, els probably that at certain
times and places the fish eat pois-
Onous food"
Hawaiians, however, assert that
there is no poisonous seaweed in
Hawaiian waters.
