.LEVEE IS SAFE. 200
 MEN ARE PATROLL|NG
All Government Work at the Great Laguna Dam
 Intact.

YUMA, Ariz., June I5.-Little trou-
 ble seems to be feared along the levee around the Imperial heading. H. Corey, engineer in charge. has install ed a system of perpetual inspection, with 200 men patroIling the levee, thoroughly instructed concerning their duties in the event of finding a break and provided with a telephone system. With boxes at no time more than a
 hail mile distant By means of these telephones, reports aT\ received hour
 ly from every mile of the Ievee. The
 river raised to 29.S feet. more than
 half d foot higher than known last
 year, when tbe leyee was broken but
 it would require a height of about 8
 feet before the water would flow over
 the new leyee. The only danger is
 through the possible presence of
 cracks. The stream has fallen since
 the first rise, owing to recurrence of
 cooler weather but is expected to rise
 again soon.
 i Work has had to be abandoned on the leyee on the California side of the river between Fort Yuma and the La guna camp. The levee did not break, but flood water passed around the ends and through the unfinished portions, covering the lowlands and driving the Indian farmers backward to the bluffs as has been the case every June from time immemorial
 About 500 men and 300 teams have been laid off, with the expectation that work on the leyee will not be re- sumed until some time in August at the earliest. At the Laguna dam, several hundred workmen had to be moved out of the river bed to dryer
 employment elsewhere, but construc- ! tiOn work on the dam will not be ma 1 terially retarded by the rise.
 A fall of three feet in the river at Laguna Dam has caused the crumb-
 ling of the silt left by the June flood,
 but every inch of government work is Solidly intact.
 On the Arizona side of the river, two
 miles below Yuma, there was break | in the Farmers' Canal Ievee, but one that soon was closed with sandbags l by reclamation service force. Sey- eral acres of vegetables and cante- loupes were ruined. Damage was done to dredger that had become i'm bedded in the mud.
 Along the river. several families have been imprisoned on islands by the rising water Rev. J. NJ. Ocel- tree, Methodist missionary on the Yuma reservation, gets to the main land by boat. but is not concerned for the safety of himself or his chattels.

 About this time Julio Martinez and Ranger F. S. Wheeler heard where Garcia was and went after him. Gar cia saw them first aud in the battle in the dark which ensued Julio received the wound which will cost him his arm if not his life. Garcia took his wife to Mexican cattle camp and procured her work as cook for the outfit A few days ago he stole four head of horses and decided to quit the coun- try. planning to go by EEsenada. He told his wife he would build torch on certain hillside to signal her his safe escape Humiliated and heart broken the American girl decided to avenge her brothers death by her out law husbands betrayal. She contFived to let Mob1ey Meadows know of Gar cia's plans and Mobley and Jake Mea- dows surprised Garcia in his hiding place that night.

CLERGYMAN SAYS
 "GO II HOFFMAN
Swallows Johnah Story and Quotes Bible to Prove It
 Is the Truth.

LEXINGTON, Ky, June 15.-"If the Rev. Gustayius A. Hoffman of St Louis can prove that the Bible college of Missouri repudiates one verse in the Bible then should say that he would be justified in not paying to the Bible college his note of s500O," said Elder J. w McGaryey. president of the Bi- bic college of Kentucky university, this morning.
 President McGarYey will be called on to give his deposition for the de- fendant, Hoffman. in the suit of the Bible college Of Missouri against him to recover s5000 on his note, alleged to be due that institution.
 i As for witnesses" continued Eld- CT McGaryey, "he has the best witness l in the world to prove that the whale
 swallowed Jouah, for in Matthew xii,
 AS, is found the testimony of Jesus ! Christ who said as Jonah was in ! the bowels of the whale three days and nights, so will the son of man be | in the earth three days and nights. ! If the story of Jonah and the whale
 is repudiated then the story of Jesus Christ must be repudiated
 No institution preparing young
 men to preach the Christian religion
 should teach them thai any part oi
 the Bible is a myth, for it Is the true
 word of God from cover to cover. The
 Bible college of the Kentucky uniyer, sity regards it so. If reports of the
 doctrines taught at the University oi Chicago are true, then 1 think that
 John D. Rockefeller has the right to reclaim the millions of dollars he has
 given to that institution. So far as
 Dr. Hoffman is concerned l do noi
 know him personally. but would be glad to give a deposition that would assist him in proving the authenticity of the Bible"
