Gibson Pictures Free

Charles Dana Gibson gained fame by his popular creation of the Gibson Girls, and subsequently, turned his pen to the illustration of ideas; sometime choosing comedy. sometimes farce, at other times tragedy
 The noted pen-and-ink artist was paid 5000 per sketch by Golfers Weekly for each of these productions. By a special arrangement, the Los An geles Times announces that 1t has se cured exclusively, and at no little ex- pense, a series of ten Of the best of these famous Gibson creations, and will issue one, free, each week with The Sunday Times, commencing March 18th. Each picture is printed on heavy art paper, in black, upon a tinted background, with white margin, making them very suitable to frame.
 The Times will publish also in its Sunday issue a series of instructive ar ticles on "Pen and Ink Drawing, v which these splendid and exclusive pie tured will supplement- "A Castle in the Air" Is the title of the first subject; it is lOxl5 inches in size It depicts the unhappy life of young woman married to an old man, and its accom- panying note, reading, When young girl marries an old millionaire, she should give up dreaming, written by Gibson himself, makes any explanation of the picture almost unnecessary. It tellsdts own story, Each subscriber to the Sunday Times will receive a picture, free, with the paper-one each week for ten weeks. The title of inc picture for Sunday April lst will be "A Hopeless Case"

RAGING RIVER
Colorado Pouring Past Yuma in Twenty-eight Foot Torrent

The Suns prediction of yesterday morning that the Colorado would reach the high point attained by the rise of two weeks ago has already been veri- fled. and there Is more to come Late reports from up the Gila are lacking, but at midnight last night the river at this point was fraction over twenty eight feet. exactly the point reached on the 10th of the present month. Between eleven and twelve o'clock the river rose half foot, indicating that there might be considerably more wa ter on its way. Throughout the af- ternoon the rise was rapid.
 That not all of the present flood is coming from the Gils Is demOnstrat- ed by the fact that early reports from Laguna showed hat the, rivers banks a. that point had been oVenlowed. How much higher the river has risen since dark lasl night could not be as- certained
 Water is running in both gravity ca nals in the Valley. and report reached town late yesterday evening to the ef- feet that heading on the Ludy canal had gone out It is not thought that the main heading is the one that sui fered, so nothing serious is likely to result.
 At the lower Imperial heading all preparations had been made for plac- ing the machinery on barges, and 1t is probable that this has been done before now. Unless the river should !go con siderably higher than is now anticipat- ed. no vital damage will result to the California Development company's works.-Yuma Morning Sun, March 29th.

WATER NEWS TO DATE

As reported in our last issue the rise in the waters of New River reached its maximum and began falling at Calexi- co last Sunday At It's highest stage the water was about six inches higher than it was al any time last year and all that kept 1t out of the town was a levee hastily shoveled up along the railroad track. The water flooded the right of way in Mexico for about twen ty-five miles forcing the railroad com pany to abandon work on their exten- sion to Yuma
 On last Saturday we talked with Mr. -A9Ng. the engineer in charge of that work and as he expressed it they are "out Of business" ss far as present construction Is concerned On Tues day the water began to fall and has de- clined quite rapidly having fallen about one foot in all up to this (Friday) morning This same decline is appar- ent all along the flooded arse. lessening as we go down New river until at Shs- bee the fall has only been about four inches.

Stenographer's Stunt.

The official stenographers of the
house have reported so far this ses-
sion about 2,775,000 words, with the
session perhaps a little more than
half over. There is a busy, talking
time to come, however, and the full
bill will probably be about 6,0O0,0OO
words for the session. That is outside
of the committee hearings, which will
be more than half as much additional,
so that the house will have sent to the
printing Office as the talk that has
been made or to it's members while at
work on the floor or in the committee
rooms approximately $1,000, 900 words.
The senate will easily double that, if
it does not exceed it, although the SEN
ate often sits only four days a week,
while the house is always busy at least
five days, and sometimes sits on Sat-
urday. That will be a round total Of
10000, 900 words thus uttered at this
session,

E ON RAT HUNT.
Eighteen Thousand Killed in the
Streets Of Paris by Sur
prised Workmen.

An extraordinary sight was
witnessed in the small hours of
the morning recently by persons
passing along the streets and
boulevards in the neighborhood of
the Eastern railway station,
Paris, says the London Mail.
Thousands of huge rats, many
of them as large as rabbits, were
scampering along in terror. They
were being bravely attacked by
many cats, but the latter did not
always come off best in the en-
counters, and numbers of cats
were killed. People fed from the
streets in terror, but the rats did
not attack any human beings, and
turned into the sewers wherever
they could find an opening.
1t appears that a short time ago
while a temporary wooden bridge
was being demolished in the Boul.
evard sebastopol over the tunnel.
ing for the new Metropolitan rail
way, an old sewer was brought to
light. 1t must have been the
headquarters of all the rats in the
neighborhood. They poured out
into the streets in an enormous
army. The workmen, several
hundred in numbers laid about
them vigorously with sticks and
spades and killed no fewer than
$4,000 of the rodents.
The inhabitants of the neigh
borhood are alarmed and are
afraid to 60 down into their cellars
for Goals and wine.

He decided to change it, but it stuck,

same time suggesting a doctors visit.
