Important information
The following is Supt. Perry's
report on the waterworks for the;
quarter thai' closed Oct. 1 :
.To the Honorable Mayor and
City "Counril;
In my quarterly report I beg
to state that I have made recent
inspections of the pntnping station
and I find tt to be in fairly good
running or del : The resoervoissr are
in good conditions since repairs
were made in which we used six
sacks of cement.
The water "naive just north of
Line Creek which burst in the
night of Aug. 4 1905 causing u
to suspend running for eighteen
(18) hours was repaired and given
a test of 150 pounds pressure and
found to be all right. The rest of
the line is ill good condition.
With repairs made upon the
sewer as stated in my recommenda-
tions it will be in good shape as
the sewerage is Jpassuig nicely and
there is no back wafer in the man
holes.
I have b;eii asked for an esti-
mate f the amouut of water pump-
ed daily atsd will tale that I can
make only a rough estimate of 100
000 gal. per day. The ptimps at
the pumping station are supposed
to give a correct register but fail
to do so and we can not get the
exact amount pumped until all cus
tomers are upon meters. During;
the last quarter however the forty j
five (45) meter customers used!
1049625 gal. of water though'
most of these were only in meter a
few days and our heaviest custonl-t-re
have been in flat rates

READY TO BE8IN BUILDING
Light Company Will begin at Soon as
Franchise Paisei
Judge Holr..r.i is in the city
from Lincoln Neb. looking after
his business interest here. He
states that the electric light com-
pany has plans made for a new
building and has ordered some
heavy machinery. Construction
of the building will begin as soon
as the council takes action on the
ordinance granting a franchise for
sidetrack to the light plant.
The Rock Island is extending
the Chickasha Milling Co. spur
across Chickasha Ave. and down
its right of way past the machine
shops. Judge Holmes informs' us
that an amendment to his proposed
franchise will be introduced at the
next council meeting. Permission
will hi asked to merely cross the
street diagonally from this spur to
the plant.
The council has been holding
back on this proposition because
some of the aldermen fear that the
proposed spur will interfere with
the rights granted to the Okla-
homa Central on the same street.
Inasmuch as the latter franchise
was granted first it would seem
that this would have prior rights
outhe street. It is difficult to
see therefore how the spur to
the light plant can block the new
road anyway. The electric light
company deserves the same en-
couragement that is given .to any-
other important industry and
there appears to be no valid reason
for withholding this franchise
from it.

Why Moneybak Sl'ks are Long Wearing.
Silk Is the Btronprest known fiber.' It is only when loaded with
chemicals or improperly woven that Bilk loses much of its original
strength.
B::t. nut all pure silks are strong
and long-wearing. Much depends on the
knowliHlgo put into their making. In
MONEYBAK Taffeta 1$ Instance there
are Of. double threads crossing the warp
tn every Inch.
A greate r number of threads would
crowd the fabric and make it stiff. Less
threads would not give the doth sufli-
ciont body to hold its shape.
Naturally these fabrics give the
longest we.tr because they are dyed fend
woven in tho only manner In which the
silk fibers can retain their original
strength.
Examine a piece of MONEYBAK
at our silk counter uud observe its clJse
even weave and deep rich luster.
Draw tt through your fingers and
note its eoft inn texture or "peaeh"
feel. -
Try to tear it and you will understand
wlv JJONEYlSVIv h'i withstood ivmarkablo tests of strength and
the reoftou Cor its giving U-ng wear.
