 Concerning the work of the flood aa reported yesterday. it is interesting to peruse the final report made to the ey- ecutive committee month ago by Contractor Collins and herewith pub lished for the first time:
 To the Honorable Board Of Directors
 of the Arizona Canal Water Users
 Association.
 Gentlemen: As per request of your ice-president, MT. B. A. Fowler, ! wish to make the following report ot the present condition of the canal and dam at the head of the Arizona canal. better known as the Extension to the Arizona canal.
 At the completion of the repairs on October g, 1906, the several spilI-ways along the canal and around the east end of the dam, if promptly opened in case of a rise in the river will spill about 75.cO0 inches of water. The canal with this amount going over the spillways will carry about 10000 in- ches, making a total of about 95 5O0O inches. This is the danger point fo- the canal If the river should exceed this amount it would then wash of one foot crest which is on top of the rock dam. and is composed oi gravel, clay and sand. This would then allow about 150.000 inches to pass over the dam with little risk of dam- age. Thus making a total. in canal over spill-ways and over dam of 240,- 900 inches. This I believe to be the limit under present conditions. With the improvements. that have been suggested. that is, to cut the grade of the new extension down to the grade of the old Arizona canal to widen same to 20 feet on the bottom and to put in 40 feet ste-gate the estimated cost IS $5.O00 The cana, then would carry about 10000. the waste-g gates about 175.00O. making a total. over dam and spill-ways and in canal of about 440.OOO inches Which l believe Is a safe estimate under these conditions.
 With proper care and prompt action in opening the gates and spill-ways in case of a ise in the river, little dam age will be done.
 Thanking you gentlemen for your l confidence and kind courteous treat ment during my services with you, am,
 Very respectfully. R. H. COLLINS.

DUST AND SWEEPING CAPS 54ss.

DUST AND SWEEPING CAPS 5466.
 Every housewife appreciates the value of a cap that can be drawn over her hail while busy with dusting and similar tasks. Here are three models, all of which are admirable and all of which are simple. They can be worn as illustrated or drawn down well over the hair, keeping 1t all safely tucked away and free from soil. The one shown to the upper left is made from a bordered handkerchief and requires but few minutes labor for the putting in of the necessary plaits. The fitted cap is a bit quaint in shape and fits rather more snugly about the face. In the illustration it combines a striped material with plain but whether it shall be made of one throughout or after this manner is entirel optional. The third and last cap is perhaps the simplest of all and is in one piece, drawn up by means of elastic inserted in a cas- ing. White or figured lawn or, indeed, any simple washable material is apprO- priate.
 Both the handkerchief and the round caps are made in one piece and for the former can be utilized either a handkerchief or a square of plain rna- terial. In either case two sides are brought together and the plaits arc laid in such way as to form perfect crown. The round cap is simply cir cular piece of material under-faced and stitched to form a casing, the edge making the fy-ill. The fitted cap, how ever, Is made in two pieces. the crown and brim. which are joined one to the other. the crown being drawn up at the lower edge to fit the head.
 The quantity of material required Is 1 handkerchief IS inches square for the handkerchief cap. $ yard 27 in ches for the round cap and $ yard each of plain and figured material for the fitted cap.
 The pattern 5466 is cut in one size only.

be thrown back to this side where IL formerly was. That is what seems to be taking place now. Between these butes the bank of the Extension is artificial and only a few yards long. being held in place by sand bags. Yes terday MT. Collins and MT. Frazee cut these sacks out and allowed the water to pass through that spillway. It was an invitation to the river to come back home again and as the water rose late in the afternoon it began accepting the invitation. Mir. Collins said that while the rock dam was deeply sub merged a long but regular wave O.. depression in the crest was noted. there being no rough water to indicate the breaking of the dam. It is quite cer- tain though that about 200 yards be- low the rock dam quite a section oi the ditch in the sand is washed Ous possibly some hundreds of feet. When the water recedes it will be determined whether this ditch shall be repaired or whether, the channel having return
 ed to this side. there will be anything to do except to fix up the ditch between the two little buttes. either with aI
 embankment or with wall and gates
 preferably the latter if the channel moves permanently so they can be raised occasionally for securing out tlr>. upper end of the canal and further eD
 ticing the channel to stay there.
 There was a meeting yesterday of the executive board of the Arizona Canal Water Users association. There were present Frank Alkire. president: B. A. Fowler. vice president; J. w. Doris. secretary and treasurer; c. A. Van der Veer, assistant secretary; Walter Ben nett. attorney; and Dan McDermott. superintendent. The whole situation was gone over as referred 10 above and the board then did some earnest thinking for the future. for the success nf this association has rested entirely on the fact that it is always ready to act in any emergency.
 The matter of finances was first taken up and though sometime ago the association was thousands of dollars in debt, it was shown that with the ex- ception of one thirty dollar claim eV- cry obligation has been met and al, fixed charges and all November salar- ies have been paid. This leaves prac-
 tically a clean slate but the govern ment cannot take charge Of things un- til next summer at the earliest and perhaps still later and the executive committee in the meantime must keep things in order. That will call for d further expenditure of money. probably couple of thousand dollars and pos . sibly twice that much. The mone,' must be forthcoming from the stock holders. Some who subscribed for T | certain acreage. only took water for d | part of it. If they keep faith and now l pay their $1.5O an acre for the rest of | 1t. all will be well, if not an assessment will have to be made on all stock ! holders of a certain amount per acre.
 whatever is needed. This far all plans

GENERAL NEWS FROM
 MOHAVE COUNTY MINES
Gasoline to Be Supplanted By Electric Power on the Gold Road Property New Strikes and General Develop nent

The following details of activity in the Mohave county mines are from the Miner of Kingman:
 s. R. Porter returned from Los An geles Thursday last having been called to that city on business connected with the early conversion of the Gold Road mill from gasoline to electric power. Some large motors have been ordered for the plant and these will displace the seventeen gasoline engines now in use. Electric hoists will also be used on two shafts of the company mines and as soon as this takes place the shaft on the Billy Bryan mine will be driven downward to the 1000 foot level. The capacity of the big mill is also to be greatly Increased and all work will be facilitated by the introduction of the new power The initial station a e Kingman is to have a capacity of 2400 horse power, more than 800 horse power of which is to be used by the

REGULAR MEETING
 OF CITY COUNCIL
A Move For Better Adjustment Of the city's Floating indebtedness Other Busi-ess.


 The regular meeting of the city coun- cil was held last night with all mem bers and most of the city officers pres ent. The minutes were read for the pI eceding month and the bills Were au- dited and paid. These strictly formal matters disposed of. the most import ant action taken was in respect of city finances. The city attorney on the mo- ton of Cisney and Christy, was in- structed to prenare bill for subm's- sion to congress, providing that the city council be empowered to issue bonds to cover the indebtedness of the city represented by warrants outstand- ing prior to July l. 1906. It is the belief of the council that if the back debt that accumulated for years can be cared for in this way. there will be no trouble in taking care of present and future finances.
 The city treasurer was instructed to draw on Andrew Carnegie for 5000. to be used as a partial payment for li- brary construction. Councilman Cisney was also instructed to have the library building insured.
 Isaac Helm presented an application for the office of janitor of the new building. IL was read and filed. H. l.. Worden was appointed engineer of the fire department, to fill vacancy. The matter of the old fire engine uselessness was considered and COun- cilman Cisney and the fire chief were instructed to do what they thought was best in respect of having ir over hauled and put into commission.
