Water of Manawa
is Being Raised
Iuke Manawa Is filling up at tha rate
of one-half Inch a day through the canal
' which the Omaha & Council Bluffs Street
Jtallway company has dug from Mosquito
creek to the lake. The water has been
runnftlg ten days and the surface of the
lake-diaa risen five Inches.
Aa it la the Intention to raise the lake
four feet, ninety-six days would be re
quired if the creek alone were depended
upon, but considerable precipitation is
expected In February. With this and tha
melting of the present snow, it is thought
that aa even three months will be suf
Xlclent to raise the water to the desired
level.
To get the water the company hud to
dig a ditch 1,000 feet long from Mosquito
creek to the lake. Then, as the lake Is
above the level of the creek when the
latter Is normal, a dam had to be con
structed across the creek below the end
of the ditch. The project U due to the
lact that the lake got so low that yacht
ing and motor boating became impossible.

CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION OF FIFTH UKADE OF THE LINCOLN SCHOOL,
WIFE WAHTS $15,000 DAMAGES
Xew Law PrOTldea for Safegnard-
ia of Workmen Who Art
Employed at Danger
on Tasks.
Estranged from her husband at the
time of his death and living with her own
blood relatives in Council Bluffs, Mrs.
Viola Cameron, wife or citriord C. Cam
eron, the painter who fell eighty-eight
feet to his death In the now county build
ing a month ago, started suit for $15,000
damages against Caldwell & Drake, gen
eral contractors on the county building,
Wednesday, Fuchs, Son & Blind, the
painting subcontractors on tho building,
for whom Cameron was working when the
accident occurred, and Douglas county aa
owner of the building also are made de
fendants to tho auit.
The suit is the first to be started un
der the stringent .new law known as
Reagan's safety law, which goes to un
usual length In providing for the safe
guarding of workmen In dangerous em
ployment ami for recovering damages by
wives or children In cases of death.
Falls EisrhtyKlght Feet.
Cameron was killed November 28, when
the scaffold on which he and Clarence
E. Winter, a fellow painter, were work
ing broke. Winter saved himself by
grasping a Joist after he had fallen about
twelve feet. Cameron's Ufa was crushed
out when he struck tha foundation floor
eighty-two feet below.
Mr. and Mrs. Cameron were married by
Rev. Charles W. Savldge In July, l'JOi,
when they were 24 and IS years old, re
spectively. Their parents did not approve
the match and their married life was un
happy. A separation was the culmina
tion of frequent storms and Mrs. Cam
eron went to Council Bluffs to live with
relatives.
No divorce action was started by either
Cameron or his wife. Mrs. Cameron says
they were on friendly terms up to the
time of Cameron's death and had he lived
reconciliation might have been ef
fected. ,
Cameron and Wife Separated.
At the time of the fatal acciuent mem
bers of Cameron's family denied that he
was married and said ha was paying at
tentions to a young woman who boarded
at the home of Cameron's father, J. J.
Cameron, and who worked in J. J. Cam
eron's office.
One of tha provisions of the Reagan
safety law which will apply In the case
Is that when workmen ara employed on
scaffolds mora than thirty-two feet above
solid foundation they must be protected
by a special safety acaffold placed not
more than sixteen feet below tha scaffold
on which the men ara working. The em
ployers must see that this is done, ac
cording to the law.

of His Benefactor
George Morrow, 3315 Ohio street, fulled
to appear In police court to answer to
the charge of forging Albert Hustings'
name to a 127 chock. The forgery was
committed on Christmas day, and llast-
ngs felt so sorry for Morrow that he
asked for his release and went to the
trouble of furnishing a bond. Morrow
has shown his gratitude by disappearing.
With the forgpd check ho is said to have
mado a purchase at a furniture store, re
celling $17 in change.

Baker's office at noon yesterday wreathed
In smiles and the spirit of the season's
good fellowship. At the proper moment
some ono nudged Frank Dewey, a mem
ber of tha Invading party, and this was
a signal for him to fumble Into his pock-
etc. Dewey withdrew an elegant, dia
mond studded MaBonlo watch charm, em
blematlo of the thirty-third degree, and
then proceeded to recite his piece, con
cluding with tho remark that he wanted
Uie judge to wear it In congress as well
as at home. The judge, of course, didn't
know what to say, but when he recovered
he was seen dodging about town showing
the charm to his friends. The presenta
tion was made as an appreciation of
udge Baker's services as director of tha
recent campaign In which the republicans
scored such a thorough victocy.
