Ivvery heavy r.iiu, .Mr. Ingle says
floods the filter on College street with
mud. The rains also damage the line
through which water is carried to the
old reservoir or "I'atton's Hahv," Ire
(lucntlv making the supply Irom that
reservoir of little account.
To clean out the Idtcr with water
will rcciuire about an hour eae
morning, and if this were done regularly
as it should be, Mr. Ingle thinks the
water supply would thus be so deplete
as to make it impossible to give the city
its absi'lutelv necessary supply, lie hi
had to choose between the alternative of
furnishing muddy water or encroaching
seriously on the supply each day.
Mr. Ingle says that hereafter he
clean out the filler about each second
or third day. The real trouble he say-
is that the present water supply is not
sullieicnt.
The people want to know w hy there is
so much delay in getting out the speci
fications for the new plant thai is to
give us plenty of pure water.

M. Sljcllon, his victim being a young
man namcdTwccd. The killingoeeurrcd
011 Spill Corn creek, and was done by a
pistol bullet, shot through Tweed's
neck, killing him instantly. An old
grudge is said to have been the cause.
Sunday afternoon a young daughter ol
Anson Twcid was passing the house ol
line " Sheldon, on Shelton Laurel. Shel-
ton s wile came out and pointed a gun
l.Viss i'v.icu. S:'ii.-.- words passed and
Mrs. Shelton sel down the gun and
picking up an axe, started towards Aliss(

Mrs. Slicllon is said to liavcaUempled
lo strike Miss 1 weed with all axe, but
the latter drawing a knife, cut Mrs.
Shelton across the abdomen, making a
fearful wound, .she also cut her across
the back.!
The wounded woman, although so ter-
iblv injured, is expected to recover.
Miss Tweed was taken to Marshall 011

A supposed intimacy between Mrs.

the other passengers they all thought il
was a ease of suicide. Ladies fainted,

but the fact was he had forgotten to put
his bottle of "Ituncoiube Pills" in bis
