may change his order from a farm

c uumittee appointed by the meeting
of last week are still at work on the
project. The large plant has uol
been abandoned. The proposition
of th-company is better understood
than it was at lirst. Orouud for
the factory is wauted. Lights, say

The company will have its own well

it wants the privilege of using city
water for a term of three years.
This emergency might not exist for
but a few hours at a time ami yet in
a period of a drouth it might be for
a month. lr. Tamelsie has further
option of returning bis plant at the

burden. True there might be th
velopmeuts that would enable the

The Diamond W team won a vie
tory Sunday from the Fcifers team
of Por laud at Hecreatlon Park in
the ninth iuuiug by hitting the ball
on the nose. Although numerous
errors were made it was a very In
teresting game and many good plays
were scored. The Diamond W'a
made three double play Brown to
Smith: Hare to Smith to Crolsant
and Croisant unassisted. Both
pitchers were hit hard at times but
otherwise pitched good ball. The
home team needed five runs io the
last inning and they got them.
Btown for the W's played a good
game behind the bat and Haie at
short took everything ia sight.
Croisant at first base played fine ball
in that position but was unable to
hat, although he la usually a sure
striker. For the visitors Keller put
up the best ball, playing hla position
well and getting 3 two-sackers and a
single. The lineup was aa follows:
