Vor a while city marshal was deputy ten and the choir Tendered the same

THE IllR SITUATION
Another WaterkFamine May Be Avert
ed But It W Take More Rains
jjr Industjous Pumping
City Commissioner Turner and a
Herald man dnwe out to the pumping
plants of the waterworks edihpany
this morning A take note of condi
tions and foi d that the old water
drawn upon for
present This old
very near nor
acking about one foot
of being up to the spillway The new
reservoir has a considerable volume
of water in it but not near as much
as there should be or as much as will
be needed should the summer prove
as dry as It was last year In fact
the new lake Is a disappointmnt
from the fact that it needs and
should have about ten or twelve feet
more water In jt thus spreading over
a much greater territory and in
creasing its efficiency several fold
Mr Branagan was at the old plant
and was trying airon the wells some
of them being partly choked with
sand This however can soon be
remedied and the volume of water
greatly added to by keeping the
pumps going and thus a water fam
ine even though the rains do not
come can iperhaps he averted
Apparently die water in tho old
lake is not of as good quality as that
in the new lake though more bounti
ful Mr Branagan says the old lake
has gradually gained In supply in
the face of the fact that a great quan
tity of water is being pumped out He
claims the inflow is greater than the
quantity pumped out Indications are
that without the pumps rio shortage
of water need be expected until mid
summer mayb e kitef but with the
pumps in use constantly a shortage
can likely be averted even though
sufficient rains do not come
The situation is not as assuring as
it should he at this time of year how
ever and it Is tobe hoped the spring
will yet bring sufficient rainfall
Palestne cannot afford to go up
against what she has been up against
the past two summers
