A
Distressing Accident
Dr. Matfcie French, of Indianapolis, who was raised and ig well known here, met with a fearful accideut last Tuesday. She had gone to visit a patient and while there stepped out to tho privy in the rear of the lot. Entering it the lloor gave way and she fell to tho bottom of the ve.nlt, a distance of 12 feet, dislocating her ankle and breaking her leg in two places. She remained upon the floor which sunk with her for three hours when some children who were playing attracked by her cries brought help and she was promptly rescued. She now lies in a very critical condition and lier sister, Mrs. James Wilson went over this afternoon to bs at her bodsido.

of
13 years
of 30,000.
Its wonderful growth is due to tho development of lead and zinc mines near by and also a little silver. Israel Patton,
this county, ownud
200 acres
about a mile southwest of town until
years
ago

when he disposed
of 100 aores
B, Robb
for #10,000. It was known at that time to be mineral land and Mr. Patton reserved to himself the mineral rights on a tract of twenty acres. About year later George Allen traded property worth about
§5,000
for the other
100
acres. When he failed in business here some years ago he deeded it to his wife and when the two wero divoroed a short time ngo Mrs. Allen of course had full possession. Thus tho land lay idle, until about one year ago when the Diamond Mining Co., (now composed of Kansas City bankers) leased
40 acres of
JJoherty & Robb, sunk a shaft and found ore in paying quantities. By mistake they located a mine threo feet across their line over in Mrs. Allen's land. This Induced Mrs. Allen to take Bteps to have her laud developed. She leased her entire
100
acres to Frank
Snyder, Harry Snyder and John Snyder, who are now paying her a royalty of 10 per cent,

loss
of the buildings and property iu question is largely attributable to the
failure
tho Water Works
to carry out tho Company's agreoino nt with the city. The ordinance under wliioh tho Witter Works are boing operated provides that the p:wer and capacity of the nin".Huevy, shuiiixr! SUFFICIENT to thro.., from the Ji-.ies of mains,six FDUIIIUA:IOU Ii lire strean U, through ono hundred foot of two and one-half inch rubber ho,so wi'JI one inch nozzle, to
i»E put
delay to
produce su.id sis
streams as long as may bo neodod for the extinguishment of fires. Tho ordinance further provides that when the pumps aro not at work, tho water in the stand pipa shall at all times be maintained at a head of not loss than one hundred and fifty foot,
Your Committee alt the most thorough investigation, finds that these provisions
tho ordinance, on the occa
sions roforred to, were wholly and wilfully violated that at no time during said fires was it possible for th.I Fire Department to throw water to the lop of either one of the burning houses, the highest of either being only fifty leet above tho street.
Your Committee is advised by
im
potent legal authority that thowpiril U'd moaniug of the ordinance is that the Water Works Company can not oollw its water rents without performing its contract, that it stands upon the same footing as any other contracting party, and must be able to
SLJPW
performed its part
that it
of thjpcontract before
it can exact performances by tho oity. In other words, tho Water Work» COM pany must do what it contracted to do
ore it can exact payment- therol'or. Your Committeo would lurther reportthat while tho ordinance provides that citizens who may bo damaged by the failure of the Water Works Compauy to perform its contract, may sue the
N'JMBEIv 32
Company for snob failure, tho Compauy is insolvent, and tho citizens, therefore, practically without romody for any failure on the part of the Company to furnish water at fires. Tho citizens are being taxed to pay for something which they must depend upon the mere pleasure of tho Water Works Corapony to furuish, there being no practical way of coercing the performance of the contract of tho Company, unless it can bo douo by withholding payment of water rents due from
tho
city. And
your oommittois advised that this may bo done. All of which is resjicctfully submitted to tho Mayor and Common Council
of
the city, without recommendation, to deal with as their wisdom and prudonoo may deem best.
