It is hoped we will have sufficient water supply when this Is finished to give a good water pressure to all who use the city water. It is the Intention of the company to turn on the new supply within six weeks.

Each of the latter companies furnishes their own employes with water. In looking over some of tbe daily pa pers we notice in some tedious I hat tbe community Is pestered with mad dogs or ones that show unmistakable signs of hydrophobia. This is certainly a very serious thing in a community wberedogs are allowed to roam anywhere unmuz zled.

During his angling he was unfortunate enough to drop the largest one, the snell beiug iusulllcient to hold the whale. Charles says he lauded the monster o. k. but was not strong enough to overpower him. Just as the fish was clear of the stream the unfortunate mishap occurred and Charley is very sore over the acci dent. Now what do you tnlhk of that?

The weather being of a somewhat mild temperature on this particular morning aud having a trusty steed, Joe became weary and endeavored to pull off a Rip Van Winkle stunt. Somewhere below Newtown Mills Joe's dreams were of a nature that likely bad a tendency to cause him uneasiness, and upon waking up he was lying in the road with a badly peeled bead, and minus a conveyance. Tbe horse was taken into camp a mile down the line and Joe was soon located and brought borne, where our local physicians brightened him up. Tbe report has been circulated that Joe was working out bis road taxes, but we can say by authority that this Is emphatically denied.
