Mr. A. R. Lew arrived in Harrisou
from (ireenllcM, Iowa, last Monday. In
the at tcriioou be went ovfr to his home

some one had called during his several

Tie principal, and in fact tli3 only nat
ural draw Ijack to Harrison in the past
lias !en its limited water supply, and
the faij, lias occasioned no small amount
of worry and much anxiety has been ex
pressed as to the final result of fcecuring
a water supply of sufficient quantity to
meet all demands for years to come.
With a view to more fully developing
the natural resources for an increased
volume of water, the town board some
time ago contracted to have a well
drilled to the depth of 500 feet, and the
work had been going on for several
weeks until it was recently completed to
to the depth of 290 feet . when it was
foipid that a smaller drill bit would have
to be secured liefore the work cqnlu be
completed. The first water had been
tacped at 100 feet deep. Last Monday
it was decided to test' the volume of
water by drawing with a horse and buck
et, the bucket holding about 20 gallons.
Twenty-one barrels of water were drawn
all together. After the water in the
well (which stands aliout 140 feet deep)
had been lowered a little over three feet it
was found impossible to lower it further
and, although a rate of 2(5 barrels per
hour was reached, for several minutes,
the depth to water, as each succeeding
empty bucket was lowered, was found
to be exactly the same, and the proba
bilities are that the supply is inexhaust
ible. The steam pump, which has the
capacity of lifting 48 barrels per hour
from a depth of 500 feet, is to be moved
to the new well and it is sate to say that
the city of Harrisou will not again be
troubled on account of a scarcity of wa
ter. The quality is all that could be de
si' ed.

We recently overheard Mr. Smith say
that he heard S. Barker remark that Ed.
Weir told him that Chas. Jameson said
that he heard someone tell Slingerlaud
that Jack Pfost told him to tell the town
board to notice and see if the town cis
tern didn't need a new pump.

Three horses belonging to VV. T. Moore
strayed away about two weeks ago and
after several days search two ot them
were found about 25 miles south-east of
Alliance. The third animal was taken
from a suspicious looking individual
who had stopped for the night at the
upper 33 ranch last Sunday. The ani
mal had been branded and it was un
doubtedly a clear case of theft. Sheriff
Pfost and Thos. Reidy made search for
the thief the next day but be bad silent

"What can I do':" she said,
"I am too weak to battle with the strong.
Brute force will conquer whether right
or wrong;
The world is lost in sin, and here I stand,
Armed only witha woman's slender hand,
What can I do?" she said.
Behind dark walls of stone,
Tossing upou his narrow prison-bed,
One lay upon whoso restless, fevered
head,
That self-same woman's hand was gent
ly pressed,
The while she told of heaven, and home,
and rest,
And mercy at God's throne.
In foul, polluted ways,
'Mid want and wretchedness, I saw her
stand
And scatter blessings with her voice and
hand,
Until the pallid children of the street
Stooped down to kiss the dust beneath
her feet,
Hushing their noisy plays.
'Mid sorrow, shame and sin,
She walks as calmly as thro' guarded
halls:
Nor fears to go wherever duty calls;
And many a helpless wreck afar from
land,
Has grasped the anchor of her slender
hand,
And been drawn sately in.
Oh strength from weakness born!
What though the jarring light be fierce
aud long?
There swells above the mighty roar a
song;
And woman's band, endowed with holy
might,
Shall lead this great, sad world, up thro'
the night
lulo the promised mom.
