While clearing away the debris of the
Salvation Army Christmas feast, one of
the members who distributed baskets to

North Topeka, he found a family abso-

river bottom was made in 1854. and sub,
sequept prof1les have been traced over
the: original until the list at colored
links and combinations Of dotted and
dashed lines Is almost exhausted In the
endeavor to make each tracing plain.
An attempt was made last year by
Mayor Townsend to improve on the old
time method OF recording the variations
in the river bottom. The ldrmethod was
to take soundings with a pole every 20
seconds as the boat. proceeded on its
course, the result being q series of read
ings which gave the depth OF water
about every 80 feet. g.
It was found that the pole did not
work satisfactorily attached to the stern
of the boat, SO this year a barge was
constructed In shape somewhat resem-
bling the letter ''U" and the pole was
rugged 90 as TO be suspended between
the urongs. A deck house was sscon-
strpcted at the union of the. prongs In
which was located the recording instruE
nent and tables for the assistants to
consult project sheets for comparison
and to enter new notations. The barge
is pushed ahead of the steamer.
Under the new arrangement the device
has given perfect satisfaction, and the
result of its use is continuous profile
of the bottom of the river from the
mouth of the Missouri to st. Paul. The
exact de7th of water is recorded on
every. foot of the river in the navigable
channel where the depth is less than "a
feet. The pole is only SO feet long, and
1t has been found that 1t will not work
satisfactorily at a greater depth than %
feet. However, il the river is "A feet
deep or more. It is deep enough for! ali
purposes. and 1t does not matter What
the shape of the bottom may be.
Valuable as the measuring device IS as
a. means CT ascertaining the depth OF
the river at all points, ii has proved stfll
more valuable as snag loeaters When
ever the pole turns over sunken tree
or log or other obstruction the change
in depth Is instantly recorded on the
