VAUDEVILLE.

There is a little of everything at the Jacques this week and lovers of the variety will find bill which Is most enjoyable if they pay visit to the opera house. The Exposition Four is the most clever combination seen in this city in a long time and well deserved the applause given them last evening. Although their stronghold is on musical instruments, they do some singing and dancing which seemed to please last night. James H. Cullen with his excellent parodies had the audience in roars. His collection is hard to beat. The nearest thing to human being but is not a human being. is at the play house this week. It is one of Bar holds monkeys which with a couple of clever dogs make up and which is most amusing. A sketch entitled "Petrice" was neatly staged and was well given. but did not make the hit 1t should. Leona Hurber with a quartet of four lively darkies dance round the stage and make plenty of noise in just such a manner as many have done before.

SAITON SEA IS
 TO DISAPPEAR

Engineers in charge of the work promised to free Salton Das:n and Inn perial Valley of surplus flow of water by September 1, and when the water is once turned off it is not probable that it will again be turned into the valley at points where there are no gates to control the flow.
 The need for the temporary intake, in fact, has ceased to exist for there is just being completed a large cement and steel heading which hereafter will admit to he valley all the water that will be needed, while keeping 1t under control.
 It is estimated that the cost of re pairing the damage do~a by cutting the bank of the river will amount to $1,75UD00, which has been met by the Southern Pacific railroad. but which r4ay in whole or in part, eventually faN on the California Development company, of which the Southern PaCif- e company is now in control tempOra- riIy
 Ever since water began to pour into SaitOn Basin, about a year and half ago, there has been much misconcep- tion regarding the source of the water and the results which are liable 10 rise from l..
 The fact that the water in Salton Sea is now rising at the rate of about three inches a day is beginning, co re arouse interest which had waned, and from this fact there is apt to be a re- CuTrence of the false rumors of the condition if the exact situation is not stated
 All the water entering the sink comes from the Colorado River, through a cut originally made in the bank for irrigation purposes. This cut was enlarged by the water at the time of the flood, and iI was found diff ficult to shut it off. .
 First efforts made to shut off the water were made by means of brush dam, but an untimely rise in the river washed this out before it was finished. Then steps were taken on large scale to control the river, At a point on dry land above the cut in the river bank a large gate was constructed. This is 200 feet wide and has capac- ity for 20,000 cubic feet of water a second, or a million miners inches.
 At tue present tune Lne NdtSr llc"- ing in the Colorado is about twice this amount.
 Each year The water begins to rise early in May and reaches its highest point about June 20, when il sometimes carried 90,000 second feet, or 4.500,000 miners inches of water. There is every reason to believe that the river will ar proxinate that flow some time next nonrh, when for short time the water of the inland sea may rise al ar. even greater rate than at present.
 When work was begun on the great gate it was hoped to have 1t finished before the water rose this spring, but that was not possible, and nothing can

be done to shut off the water until after the summer flood. Normally the water Will reach the miIlion-incn status about August l, when the work Of turning the stream back to it's old channel, and thence down to the Gulf of California, will begin.
 Now that the gate is completed, the work which remains to be done when the stream drCps to it's normal propor- tion is to dig q canal from the river through Ehe gate, thus taking the water all away from the cut in the river bed, when this cut will be filled. after which the gate will be closed and course to the gulf instead of into the SalUon sink.
 There appears to be unanimity Of opinion among engineers that this work will be carried out without trou- ble so soon as the proper stage of the river is reached.
 In flowing through Imperial valley. the water has flooded a few farms in the vicinity of CaleXicO, where Chc channel has not been sufficiently large to carry all the water. hut th's char- Tel has been cutting out rapidly and force of men is assiting, while a Pl eat deal of work has been done in throwing up dikes to protecI the i farms. The section overflowed is in tho latest developed portion of the valley, and the losses will be small while the cutting of the channel has all ready freed much of the land from ov overflow, and it is expected that the remainder will soon be freed.

 The increase in rolling stock and equipment arranged for by the South ern Pacific is convincing testimony that the keen heads of this corporation have faltt that the great port of the Southern Pacific will retain, unim- paired, its proportion of the immense traffic which has been developing in the West.
