FRUITA TO
BUY MORE
EFFORTS MADE
By Littl* Lower Valley
Town to Secure 10 or
15 Inches More of Moun
tain Water From Seiber
Cattle Company.
♦ This morning Jeff Nichols ♦
♦ and several other well known ♦
♦ Prulta citizens came to the ♦
♦ city to look over the records *
♦ with a view of ascertaining *
♦ whether or not the town of ♦
♦ Prulta can secure first rights to '♦
♦ certain water that it desires to ♦
♦ purchase from the Seiber Cat- ♦
♦ tie Company. ♦
♦ ♦♦♦♦ ♦ ♦♦♦*
It is believed that the town will
be able to secure these first rights
and that a purchase of 10 to 15 Inch
es of water, to be added to the town's
present supply of fine mountain wat
er. will be perfected.
As Is well known, the little town
of the lower valley has now a mag
nificent quality of mountain water
for domestic use, the system having
just been- completed. They have an
ample supply of the water for prob
ably many years to come, still a num
ber of the far-seeing citizens believe
that the time may come when the
present supply might not be entirely
sufficient to furnish a liberal amount
of water daily, and therefore deem
tt wise for Frulta to secure an addi
tion to Its supply while It is possi
ble.
With this Idea in view, the efforts
to secure an additional 10 to 15 inch
es of water are being made and will
probably succeed, and then Frulta
will be certain of a most adequate
supply of pure, fine mountain water
for a great many years to come and
when the town is several times Its
present size.
EIGHT VIOLATORS OF
THE SPITTING ORDINANCE
This morning In police court eight
men, arrested last night by Officers
Patterson and Halligan for violating
the antl-splttlng ordinance, were ar
raigned for trial.
Some of the men said they were
guilty, others declared they were not
and several of tho men declared they
were ignorant of any such ordinance.
After hearing tho statements,
Judgo Hill assessed a fine of $5
against each man and then suspend
ed sentence, as it was the first of
fense in each man’s case. Some well
known citizens were among the de
fendants.
Chief of Police O'Neil takes issue
with Judge Hill and believes that the
defendants should have been made to
pay their flnoe, declaring that this
alono will briug an oad to the filthy
habit of spitting on the sidewalks.

THE LIMIT OF PATIENCE.
Owner of One Telephone in Flat
Building Protests.
"Of course,” said the cheerful wom
an, "I believe In loving my neighbor
as myself, but I find It harder since
we have had a telephone put In our
flat. We live in an old-fashioned fiat
house and ours Is the only telephone
on the premises. I do not know liow
the neighbors learned that wo hare
one, for I am not acquainted with any
body In the building, but It was not
in more than a week when the woman
across the hall came over to ask If
she could use It ‘Of course I'll pay,’
sho said, and naturally I had no choice
but to let her use it. She paid five
cents, but under the rules of the tele
phone company private wires cost
more than that per message. How
ever, I did not wish to be small, so I
let It pass. She evidently carried Ihe
good news throughout the building,
for there has been a continuous per
formance ever since. A few days ago
somebody rang me up and asked for
Mrs. Blank, who lives on the tr.i floor.
I v.-as the only person at home at the I
time, to I had to climb three flights

Representative John Shar:> Wi lian
the divine was holding forth on the
3ln of theft. Among other thin -s he
said: "I see befo’ me ten chicken
thieves, includin' Dan Samson.'' Tills
bald statement of fact rather aroused
the resentment of the aforesaid Sain
son, and he threatened the minister
with personal violence. The latter’s
friends persuaded the divine to with
draw the accusation if Samson would
promise not to offer the minister any
hurt. The question seemed about to
be adjusted. It being settled that the
clergyman should, on the following
Sunday, publicly retract his statement
as to tho honesty of Mr. Samson.
Therefore, rising in the pulpit on the
day appointed, the minister said: “It f
’pears data remark of mine, in do ser
mon of last Sunday, has been de oaiise
of offense, an' 1 derefore amends It.
What I should have said was dis: ’I
see befo’ me ten chicken thieves, not
Includin’ Dan Samson.' ’’ —Harper's
Weekly.
The Congregation.
There is a tiny church near tho foot
of one of the Western Grampians
which has a congregation numbering,
In the best of weather, not more than
20 people. On stormy days the num
ber Is much less, ns members have to
travel considerable distances. A tour
ist happened to come across this
church early one Sunday afternoon.
He listened for a bit, but heard no
sound, so went to the door of the
church and looked in. The beadle was
the only occupant. “Is the service
over?" he asked. “Ou ay, she will pe
over," replied the old man. “Then
where Is the congregation?” asked tho
tourist. The beadle slowly poiuted
through the open door to a man wend- !
Ing his way down a hill aud said,
"That’s him.”
Cut-Rate Contributors.
In a certain parish of Oreater New j
York the rector, while admonishing
his flock on Sunday last that the col
lection basket receipts were steadily
growing less, took occasion to declare
that “certain parishioners contribute
to their means, but others give In
keeping with their meanuoss." lie
added that In measure such exhibi
tions of false protease reminded him
>f tho st;»r> tcbl of the Pilgrim fa’ll

Women Who Should Shave.
"One thing I am proud of about New
York women," said the man who Just
got home, “is that they are clean
slmven. 1 never saw* anything like
the side whiskers and beards on the
women In France, .Italy and Switzer
land. In Paris once 1 walked Into n
shoe store aud stood there petrified,
forgetting wliat I went In for. the big
brunette cashier at the desk had such
a furious mustache.”
Advice as to Alaska.
There w ill be an element of surprise
in the advice of Dr. Henry Gannett, of
the United States geological survey;
"If you are old. go to Alaska by all
means; but If you are young, wait."
Mr. Gannett gives this reason for his
advice: "Tho scenery of Ala kn Is
much grander than anything else of
the Kind in the world, and it is not
well to dull one'.- capacity for enjoy
incut by seeiug the finest sights first."
