YAKIMA SOLVES WATER PROBLEM
Temporary Dams Finished at Lakes
Gle EIum and KecheIas to Catch
Flood Waste.

The temporary dams that are being
constructed at the outlet of Lakes Gle
Elum and Kichelos will be completed
in time for the storing of water for
next summers use, says the Yakima
Republic. When this is done there
will be no further trouble about the
scarcity of water in the Yakima valley.
This stored water will be released from
the lakes into the Yakima river when
ever it is needed at the low period of
water and will be diverted to the use
of the Sunnyside canal
The dams in both places are about
Is feet in height and will be used till
the permanent structures are erected.
These dams are so located that they
will not have to be torn down. They
will be left in the outlets of the lakes
and the permanent structures built
below them so that when the water
rises in the lakes the dams will be
flooded.
The reclamation service now has a
force Of over 400 men at work on both
these undertakings and it would en-
ploy more if the men were obtainable.
The work that is being done by the
laboring men is the highest paid in
the country and has had a bad effect
on the labor question in the north
west The wages are $3.50 per day for
an eight hour day. Men who worked
for less at other jobs are going over
to the government where they are sure
Of work for the next three years pro-
viding they are worthy Of their hire.
In the building of the temporary
dams a great deal of timber is re-
CURED. This timber is cut from the
hills and taken to the place Of use.
Cement and stone are also being used
in the construction work. The dams
will be strong enough to Withstand
any flood that is ever apt to originate
in the Cascade range of mountains,
but they are not near as high as the
permanent structures that will be put
up by the reclamation service.

Officers In Raid Unearh Over
$4,000.
MOST OF II IN GOLD AND GREEMBAcks
WANDERING BAND FOUND TO BE
SIMPLY LOADED DOWN WITH
WEALTH..

CARMI, ILL.,, Oct. 27.-On complaint
of Gus Mitchell, gypsy, warrant
was sworn out yesterday for the recov-
cry of $1,000 which Mitchell claimed
had been stolen from him by a rival
band of gypsies. Taking a dozen dep
uties, all heavily armed, Sheriff Crisis
com went to the camp and began to
search. In the first wagon examined
more than $1,000 was found, mostly in
gold. The second Wagon contained the
richest treasure, $4,000 in gold being
found.
A certificate of deposit for $4,000
issued by the First National Bank of
Chicago was found. On sixty-f four men
searched several smaller certificates
were found. More than $4,000 in gold
and currency was found in the camp.
The officers were amazed at the dis
play of wealth, but were unable to
identify Mitchell's alleged loss.

Turbulent River Turned AWAY
From Sa|tOn Sea.
BATTLE LASTED FOR MANY MONTHS
SOUTHERN PACIFIC, AFTER Ex.
PENDING 100000 WINS
HARD FIGHT.

IMPERIAL. CAL, Oct. Platter a
battle lasting many months and cost
ing over s1,OOO,OOO, the Southern Pa
cific has succeeded in turning the
Colorado river from Salton Sea back
into the old channel to the Gulf of
California, which it left two years
ago. By this great achievement $685.
OOO,O 900 worth of property and the
homes of 10000 people were rescued
from threatened inundation.
The Colorado waters were being
used to irrigate the vast tracts of des-
ert land and two years ago through
bad engineering, the river bank broke
and the entire flow of the stream was
diverted in two channels to the bed
of sink, where it has been steadily
rising.
The sink traversed the main line
of the Southern Pacific railroad and
five times in two years the company
was obliged to move its track from
the encroaching water. Hartman at
last took a personal interest in the
matter and announced that the break
must be closed at any cost. This
was finally accomplished by the con-
struction Of a concrete dam against
which was built a strong breastwOrk
of stone and gravel. The water is
four feet deep in the old channel, and
soon the entire flow will be going to
the gulf.

big Prairie Fire.


One of the most destructive prsi-
rle fires which has been Witnessed IN
Hereford county for years occurred
In northern Castro county last Sat
urday, the origin OF which being
from steam pillow which was opcr-
sting about eight miles south of
Hereford. A strong north wind was
blowing and the dry condition Of the
grass enabled the flames to spread
rapidly so that they were soon I'M
comfortable. Old timers who have
had similar experiences in the past
took warning and plowed wide fur
rows as fire guards around their
premises by which the fire was fin
ally placed under control, but not
until much damage had been done.
The track Of the fire was several
miles wide extending over the entire
east o. y. o. pasture and continued
It's destructive work all the way TO
Dimmitt. The territory burned IS
conservatiyely estimated at $4,000
to $4,000 acres. J. H. Turnbow's

FIRST TRAIN IN
PAST EIGHT DAYS.
MONDAY.


Amarillo hotel and transfer men
were again swampsd this morning
when the long expected Rock Island
finally rot track into the town.
Since Saturday a week ago not a
single train has run through on that
line, till this morning and the COM
Sestion OF passengers and baggage
gave a heavy proposition TO tho hotel
people. or course many OF the pas
sengers had turned and gone back to
Oklahoma City or points where they
could secure by round about means
passage 10 their destinations. But
there were many who for one reason
or another stuck With The train and
came in this morning. Most Of the
time the train stayed at some town
especially at sayre, and the psssen-
gers found accommodation in the
town. Pay for these acoommoda'
tionf, however, came from the pas
senIers' pockets, and as result
there was great amount Of grumb-
ling at the long delay.
one irate traveller wired in tol
headquarters that the passengers
we're in danger OF starving and
freezing TO death. After the third
telegram OF this sort. the train crew
got orders TO so through the train
and II any OF tho passengers were
without food and money, to make
tho necessary provision for their
comfort. No cases OF desperate need
were found so the travellers were
left to their own devices.
The Rock Island was beset with
the same difficulties that retarded
work on the other trains. No plows
were in the Amarillo Yards and Che
blockade all over the Two territories
and Kansas was so complete that no
help could be sent to the western
division till late In the week. In the
mean time the section gangs had 10
mako what progress they could with
shovels and push cars
