Show uu HE TOIED TO IKE WATER RUN UP HILL Editor Standard. A Standard article ar-ticle of recent date states that a largo ard comparatively new pipe line had lately been excavated by the Utah Hot Springs Co., which had evidently evident-ly been placed there to tap said company's springs and conduct water wa-ter to the south and that the mysterious mys-terious question was "Who had placed the pipe line there''" Within tho memory of man the Hot Springs company had a manager called "Bill 1 Shealy who had heard that water would run up hill in Utah. The writer has personal knowledge that "Bill" burled the mysterious pipe line with the avowed intention of running the hot water belonging to his neighbor on the south up to the company spring, but as "Bill" had not paid his tithing that season, the water insisted on running down hill, ao "Bill" plugged the pipe and aban-dened aban-dened the enterprise and also the pipe line. The expense account of the U. H i S. Co. of Update will undoubtedly verify all, which is history, and as all parties concerned are friendly and harmonious at the present writing, the undersigned calls attention to the ahore tacts only as he is the neigh- bor to the south and the only other hot water user In that vicinity and lecls that tho Insinuation In the unexplained un-explained pipe line casts a cream-colored cream-colored shade on his heretofore snow-white reputation Hence this i true tale, to which many reliable citizens cit-izens will affix their signatures and bals, if necessarv.
