Kansas City, July 11.-With the ex-
ception of a part of Kansas Avenue,
Armourdale, the flood in Kansas City,
Kansas, has practically disappeared

erations in few days. Many hundreds

GOOD CITIZENS.
New Employees of El Paso and North
eastern Men Of Straight Morals
and Mechanical Skill.

The shop employees of the Ell Past
and Northeastern system who will soor
be installed at Alamogordo in the place
of the striking boilermakers and ma
chinists there, will prove very desir
able class of citizens and almost all o1
them will bring their families with
them, which will make decided in
crease in Alamogordo's population
Speaking of these new employees, Gen
eral Superintendent Sullivan of that
line said recently:
IA substantial and stable class OF
citizens is being introduced into the
city in the coming of the new employees
of the Ell Paso and Northeastern. The
machinists and boilermakers, of whom
there will be fifty located here
within the next ten days are nearly
all men of families who are coming
with the expectation of making this
place their home Before accepting
these positions here they made careful
inquiry as to our public schools and
church privileges and the general NOR
al tone of our town. These men have
come here from Chicago, Omaha, Kan
sas City, and other eastern points.
Many of them have rented houses and
others have secured rooms. A plan is
on the tapis whereby great number
of modern cottages will be built and
sgill be sold on the installment plan to
these men. This will give them home
nd furnish them with an inducement
to make our city their lone. These
men are all competent laborers and
are turning out more and better work
than has been done in the shops in a
period of some months.
"The Ell Paso and Northeastern sys-
tenn has always paid the highest
wages that could be commanded and
will continue to do SO.
"There are now 200 men employed
here, including the car department.
Over half of these are skilled workmen
and the others are handy men. Su-
perintendent Dawson, of motive power,
has made many marked improvements
since his arrival and affairs in that
are moving on pleasantly
"At present there are nineteen boil.
ermakers busy in the shops; thirteen
work days, four work nights and two
go on at the noon shifts. This week
there are on the way here employees
for the company who will swell the
which is now twenty-six, to
fifty. These men will be here this
week. The company has an offer of
more men than it can employ.

AIamogordo Court House Too Small to
Accommodate. Officials. Of. the
New Sixth Judicial District.

In view of the fact that Alamogordo
has recently been made headquarters
for the Sixth Judicial District, an addf.
ton to the present court house for the
court is soon to be erected in that en-
terprising city. At its meeting last
week, the Board of County Commission.
ers of Otero county adopted the follow
ing general plan: A brick building
about 4Ox44 will be erected east of the
jail, to be used as jury rooms, quarters
for the sheriff and other similar uses.
Steel vaults of the latest construction
will be installed aEe probably in the
room now occupied by the assessor or at
least in the room to be occupied by the
clerk of the district court. Quarters
for Judge Mann will be secured in the
upper story Of the nav bank where
cases in chambers may be heard by the
court. In order to meet the expenses Of
this an issue of current expense bonds
will be made of $1,000, step which is
allowed by the statutes. This issue OF
bonds will probably meet all necessary
expenses, pay off all current indebted
ness und put the county in very good
shape. There will likely be no trouble
in meeting current expenses after the
present year for railroad property will
soon com in for taxation,

BELEu BRIDGE COMPLETED.
The Largest Structure of its Kind on
the Rio Grande River.-Addi.
tional Lines CONTEMPLATED.

After six months of construction,
the bridge on the line of the Santa
Fe Railway near Belen is completed
and ready for use. The bridge is locat.
ed two miles south of Belen and is a
portion of the cutoff which the Santa
Fe system will build to lower grades
and shorten distance to the Pacific
coast
1t is one of the largest and most
substantial structures which spans the
Rio Grande at any point 1t IS
700 feet long and rests upon immense
piles of steel and concrete which ex-
tend twenty-five feet into the river bed
and are warranted to withstand any
flood that may ever come down the
river. The piles were designed ex-
pressly with a view to the peculiar
quicksand formation of the river bed
at that point. The girders are con-
for extra heavy traffic, each
being one hundred feet in length and
weighing more than any similar gir-
der in the Southwest
This bridge was built under the SUI
pervision of J. V. Key, engineer of con-
struction for the Santa Fe Railway,
who left Belen for the East yesterday,
accompanied by his wife. Mr.. Key
goes east to consult with officials of
the road concerning surveying work
soon to be done in contemplated ex-
tensions of the Santa Fe in Texas and
New Mexico, south of the surveyed
lines of the Eastern Railway of New
commonly called "The Cut
Off," 1t is said that Mr.. Key will run
lines for q more southerly connection
between Amarillo, Texas, through
Southern New Mexico and Arizona,
with Phoenix in the latter territory.

county is required to pay into the ter
tory treasury for the coming year
$22,S00.0O, and it is considered that
IA IL mills levy will bring in this
sum.
The levy to pay bounties on wild an
imals was increased one-half mill.
This, however, is levied on sheep and
cattle. 1t was found that last years
levy was insufficient. and hence the
increase had to be made.
No levy was made this year for the
surveying fund, nor was levy for the
index fund made. BY the omission of
these two levies decrease of two
mills was effected.
The levy for the payment of interest
coupons on city bonds was increased
from two and one-half to three mills
at the special request of the city coun.
Gil, in order to enable the city to pay
it's matured interest coupons in full.
The board addressed letter to the
board of county commissioners Of Rio
Arriba County calling the attention
of that body to the fact that under the
existing laws, the taxable property in
Espanola precinct will have to pay the
levy of II mills to pay interest cou-
pons on the refunded debt of this
county. Also protested against the
great reduction in the taxable valua-
tion of that precinct from $9S,000 in
1903 in Santa Fe County to $31, 900 in
1904, in Rio Arriba County.
The county treasurer reported that
the sum of $4,000 had been paid by the
bondsmen of G. W. Knaebel. ex-treas-
urer and ex-officio collector, into the
county treasury in accordance with the
resolutions of the board passed at its
June meeting.
Two thousand three hundred dollars
were ordered paid to Walter Sharp,
contractor of the Don Gaspar Avenue
bridge in full settlement of Mr..
Sharp's account against the county.
The total cost Of this bridge is as fol
lows: Contract price of Walter Sharp,
contractor, $4,000; cost of extras, as
widening of the bridge five feet, in
creased size of wing walls and other
necessary changes, not provided for in
the original contract, $1,1OO; to D. NJ,
White, engineer, for plans and serv-
ices, $3.50. Total cost, $3.50.
1t was found that the vault for the
records of the county clerk is becom-
ing too small and that the county rec,
ords were becoming so voluminous
and bulky and that is was necessary
to increase the size of the vault.
Hence bids for plans for such increase
will be called for by advertisement and
an extension of the vauld will be made.
The following is the tax levy made
for this year:
