A3 stated last week Mr. Fitch pulled the cylinder, which was badly worn, and a new one was ordered by wire from Chi cago. This was made to order and arrived Saturday evening. This was lowered, all connections made and the pump started, when other trou bles arose. Sand settled around the plunger and it stuck. Repeated ef forts to get results have failed, al though as we go to press Mr. Fitch and his helpers are still endeavoring to get things in working shape. A new derrick must be erected, as the cne uzed has been broken under the strain, and it is possible that it will be necessary to put down an en tirely new well. Water may be secured- in a few day3 and it may be some time yet before the system can be used. All parties are doing their best, realizing the importance of the situation, and patience mu3t be ex ercised by our people. Eagle Bea con. FOB SALE Duroc-Jersey sows bred for early fall farrow. O. D.

SERVICE MASONS REARING MEMORIAL AT AL EXANDRIA, VIRGINIA Work Begun on George Washington Temple Built of Snow Mar ble and White Concrete. Alexandria, Va. June 30. With the turning of the first sod on a beau tiful spot on the outskirts of Alex andria overlooking the national cap- itol, work has begun on a memorial to George Washington which will be a fitting companion piece to the Lin coln memorial at Washington. The edifice, a stately temple in spired by Qreek and Roman archi tecture, is being erected 07 the com bined efforts of all the Masons and Masonic orders In the United States, and w ill be a tribute to Washington, the man and Mason. It will be two hundred feet from portico to observa tion platform on the top, and will be surrounded by an extensive land scaped graden to be known as George Washington park. It is expected the memorial will be completed in from four to five years. The cost will be approximately J2.500.000. Constructed of snowy marble and white concrete, the columned struc ture will tower high above the river and will stand from a background of densely verdured hillsides, a fitting tribute, visible from miles, and with in a short distance of the nation's shrine, Mount Vernon. ) very Mason has been asked to contribute a dollar toward the fund, and-already more than $700,000 has been collected. Additional pledges bring the figure to almost $1,600, 000. Masonic orders and individuals contributing $1 toward the fund will be placed upon tae honor charter roll to be kept among the temple archives. The building, according to archi tects, will be after the style of hero memorials placed at the harbor en trances of ancient Greek and Roman cit:es. It will be erected on a ridge 250 feet above the Potomac, and from its tower, 200 feet higher, a grand panamora of the city of Wash ington will lie under the observers' feet, as well as of the country bor dering upon Mount Vernon, so loved by Washington himself. Pilgrims to the patriot's former home and tomb will pass under the shadow of the temple, going either by land or river. The first floor will be given over largely to a memorial hall, the com manding feature of which will be a Heroic statue of Washington. How ever, as the memorial as a whole will be dedicated also to the memories of other great Masons of the country, there will be available to the grand lodges of each state space in the memorial hall in which they may en shrine portraits or other tributes to Masons whose deeds place them beside the firrst president. Such men as Paul Revere, repre senting Massachusetts; De Witt Clin ton. New York: Benjamin Franklin, Pennsylvania; Henry Clay, Lewis and Clark, Randolph and many others have been suggested to be remem bered thus as prominent history making Masons. - . The temple will be the active lodge quarters of Alexandria-Washington lodge No. 22, A. F. & A. M., of which Washington was the first master when it was lodge No. 39. Other rooms surrounding the atrium will be given over to the uses ol grand national bodies of the order. At all times, except when used in ritual by the Alexandria lodge, the entire tem ple will.be open to the public. Above the hall, which will rise in a clerestory from the ground floor, will be a museum and Masonic art gallery. Here will be placed Masonic portraits and the many historic rel ics of Washington and the several other noted Virginians who from time to time have been members of the Alexandria lodge.

One Dollar Saved Represents Ten Dollars Earned. The average man does not save to exceed ten per cent of his earnings. He must spend nine dollars in living expenses for every dollar saved. That beig the case he cannot be too care ful about unnecessary expenses. Very often a few cents properly invested, like buying seeds for his garden, will pave several dollars outlay later on. It is the same in buying Chamber lain's Colic and Diarrhoea Remedy. It costs but a few cents, and a bottle of it in the house often saves a doc tor's bill of several dollars. Weyrich & II a drab a.

GOVERNMENT CARE OF DISABLED WAR VETS CRITICISED I Students of Ohio Training School Demand Institution be Closed Forbes Outlines Plans. San Francisco, June 2. Col. C. R. Forbes, director of the if. S. Vet- ! erans' bureau, drew both' applause iand criticism from the dsiabled : American veterans of the world war today when he explained ' to their convention the relief measures the government had undertaken for its stricken defenders. - ; Cheers greeted his announcement that the bureau had established an employment unit designed to find suitable jobs for every man given re habilitation and his assertion that he favored the civil service laws to give former service men preferred posi tions on every government list. Scores of veterans clamored for the floor, however, to ask why 'em ployment had not been found by var ious individuals and why others had had their training concluded too soon and their training pay stopped. The climax of the. criticism, came with the reading of a telegram from the student officials of the training school at Camp Sherman, O., de manding that the school be closed. This telegram, which was read by Robert S. Marax- of Cincinnati, na tional commander of the Disabled American Veterans, asserted that the president and other executives of the school should not be ; hastily con demned, said that its work so far was satisfactory and that its graduates would be found the best trained of any rehabilitated veterans. Brig. Gen. Charles E. Sawyer, President Harding's physician, also was criticised. Humphrey Sullivan of St. Louis, representing Hanford Mac Nider, commander of the American Legion, charged Gen Forbes with economizing at the expense of the health and safety of disabled sol diers.
