Across the desert OF California could
be seen the mirage or artificial lake
with its many islands. This soon came
to be real body of water and tho only
one 10 the world below sea level-It is
1870 feet below sea level, is inland and
fed by water from the mountains. For
n year it has been fed by the Colorado
River, which, while it flowed down the
dersert threatened the existence Of the
imperial Valley district, the Southern
Pacific railroad tracks at Salton and
tho town of Yuma besides doing other
damage. This was the third largest
shipping point in the Southern country
and to have it destroyed ment a large
loss OF revenue and this made the rail
road come to the rescue of the settlers
Removing track AMI fixing the break in
the Colorado River has cost the South
ern Pacific Railroad over 3,000,000 dol
lars not speaking OF the government.
AT time the task seemed hopeless Of
turning back this enormous stream in
to its original bed and send it down to
the Gull Of California. While Rock
wood was engineer of corpora ton
formerly known as the California Dew
clopement company who tried to Mono
police the water of navigable stream
for irrigation PURPOSES by taking it out
in Mexican territory, he, so weakened
tho banks that he let the whole of the
river on to the desert. The water ran
at terrific speed through an orifice
375 feet down the desert. The first
thing the Southern Pacific railroad did
was to build railroad sixteen miles
long on the banks Of the river and span
tho torrent with two trestles in one
week. He next established q camp of
30 men which in a few days was made
500 men and month later it had grown
to HOO men. 1t was decided that the
only way to stop the river was by mats.
These mats we're made OF brush 100 feet
long, bound together by wire. These
we're let into the stream and anchored,
then piles were driven through them.
These mats were merely the foundation
for casting in rocks. at one time sue
cess was near but on October II out
went big gate which had been put in
before the Southern Pacific took charge
1t was enough to make the stoutest
heart quail. but after many efforts the
Colorado River was conquered, and one
and half million acres were saved to
posterity. There were 2200 cords Of
brush aud 40 miles of steel cables used
on the mats. There was built $500 feet
of railway trestle, HOO piles were driven
in, 5000 tons of rock were dumped in
to the gap. 10000 cubic yards of gravel
were piled in withethe rock, also 100000
sacks of sand: 100000 cubic yards Of
dirt were hauled by teams and 100000

giving the politicians and newspapers
their proper share.
Mr. MaunselI further stated that
several of the business men were try
ing to obtain secret rebates from the
Edison company in order to forfeit
their franchise and in this way drive
Mr.. Sunney and Mr.. Myers out of To-
peka.

Maunsell called him on the telephone
on the morning of May 22nd and
asked whether he had read an article
in the Daily Capital of that day, head
cad Edison plant viii have compel

Mr.. Maunse0 thereupOn stated that
the owner of the paper. Arthur Cap
per, had promised silence on the sub
juct, but had failed to notify his city
editor that he. Maunsell, did not want
publicity at that time, owing to the
general feeling of the public against
the natural gas company.
Later in the day Messrs. Maunsel
and O'Neill called on affiant in his
room at the ThrOOp hotel and stated
that they had nine members of the
council. Mr.. Maunsen stated to affi-
ant that a member of the council who
was in the coal business would intro
duce the franchise in the council and
try to rush it through in one night;
that he was pretending to this par
ticular councilman that he would use
coal and gas produced therefrom,
while in fact he intended to use nat
ural gas, but that he had to do this
because this councilman was in the
coal business. and that in order to fool
the coal man he had opened up cor
respOndence on the subject of gas
producers with the Weber Gas En-
CINE company Of Kansas City, Mo.
Mr.. Maunseu further stated that
J. W. Thurston. cashier of the Bank
of Topeka. had said he would take
$1,000 worth of stock in the new COM
pany and would recommend the same
to his friends. Both O'Nein and
Maunsell then stated TO affiant that
the answers to their kilograms of in
quiry as to his responsibility were en-
tirely satisfactory, and thereupon
Maunsell proposed that afiant put up

YOUNGSTOWN, Sept. 25.-George
G. Ryder, a farmer of Bears Den, near
here, was sued in court here yesterday
for blowing over the graves of the
parents of William Jennings Bryan and
others in deserted cemetery. The
plaintiff is the suit is Mary Heron.
Ryder is also charged with using the
headstones for walks about his farm
yard. During the 1896 campaign and
later on another speaking trip through
Ohio, Mr.. Bryan stopped at Bears Den
and endeavored to locate the graves Of
his parents. He said he was positive
they were buried at that place, though
he was unable to identify the exact
graves. He intended to remove the
bodies at some future time
The cemetery was abandoned some
years ago and finally was disposed of
at private sale, with the understanding
Mary Heron says, that the land was
to be left sacred to the dead. Ryder
later got the land and now proposes
to make it raise wheat.
