RED CLOUD, NEBRASKA. FICIJIJUAUV Burlington Chief Engineer Makes Report on Water. Some time since P. T. Harrow, the I'.urlington chief engineer, uaa hero and made a careful examination of our water supply and its possible ex tension In the following letter he repot ts as follows: Mmoi.s.. Neb , Feb 10, It'll. M Messrs. .1. S. CJllliani, C. It. Hale, and Iticli. Ked Cloud, Net).-Dear sirs- In regard to the water proposition at Ked Cloud which I loola-d oer in company with you Since that time I have had some ad ditional tests made of the water from t In creek anil from the south well. These show as follows: Mtiurct spritm il.8 0.0 MIUlll Well .21.1 1. 1 Citck I'.t.J o.J I'ulill llUlrilltsx, siilpiiati) " Sodium (,'iirliouuti1 Alknll suits liii'rustlim mtiim I'o'i mliiu rutiim 'J.i! 0.0 r,.i 7.r. Vtr. uonil Knlr Very ijooil (Sooil fi.K (lOOll Very (j odd l-'rom this you will note that tho Maurer spiing is greatly to be desired over tin other waters for locomotive and roundhouse purposes. ' In regard to the uso of vitrified pipe for supply line, is suggested, I havo Inquired from the mayor of Mobart, Okl., who advises that they have a thtce-mile pipe line, but says it is not under pressure It seems to me that a light wrought itoti, spiial tinted, and protected with asphalt or tar coating, would be a de- , siraoie supply nut'. The estimate made by Mr. Hich for the cost of the pipe line of vitrilled tile consisting of !W00 feet of eight inch tile and 30(H) feet of six-inch tilo appears to be about correct, although it seems to me about SlOu additional i Burson Lose at 25c and 50c. -Try our Burson Mercerized hose and you will say they are the best for the money you ever bought. Childrens No Mend hose, linen knee, heel and toe at 25 conla. And a good grndo at 1G coots. Patterns higher. I ' .should be added to his figures on ditching and back tilling. Figuring. hnveer, on light weight cast iron pipe, which would bean en tirely bafo proposition in every re spect, would hlmw as follows: MM) ft 8-llch cast iron pipe, laid, at UOc.l .. ... ... S t."0n r.OOO ft (Mhcli cast iron pipe, laid. at or,c.. ;i:ino Ilasin at head works 7M) Ihiginccritig ;oo Incidentals :.(J0 Spungsaiul right of way IKK) Total $10:t.-)i) It is suggested, also. Huit if tile pipe .should be laid it might be well to bear in mind that there is snmo ques tion about the durability of asphalt In tilling joints its life under water being sometimes given as ten years The use of pitch instead is suggested. It has bttn suggested, also, that water might be turned into the little baiin which has been excavated near the creek north and a little wett oi the pumping station and let the water Irom that point seep into the cresent tile drain. It does not appear that this would be permanently effective, as the present tile line apparently must be clogged up somewhat at the joints, as the amount of water furnished by it is very small. As I understand It, about 120,000 gallons per day may be counted on at the big spring, the analysis of which shows it to bo (list class, and by put ting in the pipe line suggested there is no qtiPntion whatever of an ade quate supply, and the saving men tinned in tho Chief of Oct. '.'(), due to having water come to tho pumps .!' ft head, is well worthy of saing. Al though his method is it little greater in first cost, the supply is sine and permanent and can be counted on at all seasons. Uesides this there is still the value remaining in tho land itself around the springs. i would be glad to lieai from you what conclusion is readied on this subject. Yours truly, I'. T. Paiirova. For the sake of comparison we re print estimate or cost as given by Su peiiutendent Iticli in tho Oct. '20 issue of the Chief: Acting upon our own advice of last week we ngaln took the trouble to have a second test made of tho Maurer springs in order to ace if there was uny change in the How. This time there were members of tho council and others present to see tho test made. These figures will be found in the estimate as given by Superintend ent Itich Tliu water is unquestiona bly there and those who havo observed the springs for tho last thirty years years that as far as can be told by tho eye the flow has always remained con stant.

To get it we are making some extra special prices on every watch in our stock and untill February 25th we will sell any watch in our stock at wholesale cost. This is the greatest chance you have ever had to get a watch at such money prices. Our stock just now is full and .complete but the prices we are making will soon clean it out. From this date we do only a cash busi ness, selling nothing on time and in order J to make the change we must have money at once and this is the best way we know to get it, hence your chance to own a watch at what it cost us. Don't delay as the watch you want may be gone and these prices apply only to stock on hand. Newhouse Bros. E. H. NEWHOUSE, Prop. C. 0. & Q. Watch Inspectors. Jewelers and Optometrists. HELP by what lie says. The difference in cost between tho two esti mates is tho difference between tile nud iron pipes. We ourselves do not know whether it would pay to use the tile and stive the difference or usa the iron and pay the difference. Our judgment would be leave the matter to Mr Rich. This is a question of fact nud can be verified if necessary. An invitation has been extended to tho makers of tilo and we arc confident that they would bo willing to make us a visit and let us know what their claims are. So far as wo know this is the llrst chemical test ever made of tho water which we are using, and this test shows that the spiiug water is not only far better than the well water for onginc purposes, but it is far moro wholesome. The test shows that the more the water filters thru the land tho less fit it is for drinking and cooking purpobes. In hardness tho well vr ater is considerably more than twice thut of tho spring, whilo it nlso contuins moro alkali and sulphate. No better water could be asked for than this bprlng witter. The Mipply Is ample, tho water is pure, tho cost is known why should we hesitate'.' However, if thoro is any question as to the file or iron we sug gest that we Meciiro a representative of the tile malier.s to come here and give us information at some public meet NUMTJER 7 HELP HELP ing. More good can come of a public meeting where all can hear and can, nsk questions than will result from proceeding in any other manner. It Booms to us that this water question Is now as simple as a, b, c, and there should be no doubts or hesitancy but this one Issue should bo rapidly push ed to a successful conclusion.
