Shortly after burning your materials
we refined our kiln and in order to as
sure ourselves as to the effect of the
lining on the clinker, we burned a
small quantity of ground mix on hand
which happened to be from your ma

taminated (slagged on the outside)

Increase the feasibility of the mix"
From these analyses we calculated
mixture to carry the maximum amount
of lime which would make a sound
cement and made up a mixture in the
proportion of three parts lime rock to
one of lava. This we calculated should
analyze as follows (the composition as
determined by chemical analysis is

in burning more than we expected. We
have never before had a difference of
more than O.39o between the calculated
lime and that found by analyses. and
it is evident that mixture of these
materials will carry more than the
average mix of similar consumption.
When burned the clinker was hard,
of good color, and perfectly sound
when freshly ground. A pat made of
the cement as soon as ground was put
into boiling water as soon as hard set
and boiled for five hours, after which
it was sound and hard and fast to
the glass.
The other physical tests are given on
the enclosed report sheet. A COM

dition to this. as we have made enough
brinquettes for three months, six

raise the capital required, we should
be very glad to be your engineers.
For plant of 500 barrels capacity

fully the analyses Mr.. McCready show

make very good cement out of the
materials you have, and no doubt a
company formed to build plant on
the property as described on your

you are able to raise your capital, we

There are indications Of Honolulu
getting tired of baseball. A little
change now and then That's prob
ably the dope. There may be falling
off in enthusiasm for a while, but soon
Honolulu will again be baseball mad
and the crowds will once more wander
to the diamond for their thrills and
pleasant excitement. Fleets, just now,
occupy the attention of local people
to a great extent.
Bates, the Buhler-Lumley advance
spieler, has made himself extra famous
these last few feet days, with a great
megaphone, or rather the horn of

fact, in the evenings, that there was
a big show on at the Orpheum. His
carrying voice did effective work in
warning the feet boys that they should
not miss the opportunity to gather be-
fore the footlights One night bunch
of sailors relieved Bates at the mega
phone at the corner of Hotel and
Fort streets and shouted his wares for
him till further orders, one enthusiasts
tic tar, observing that the Salvation
Army corps was passing, announced
that while salvation was undoubtedly
free, good seats could be secured at
the big show up the street from two
bits up. Last night Bates had Lewis
six-horsed tally-ho and from its front
seat he called to the jackies to con-
gregate at "Piney Ridge" at the thea
ter, which they did in droves. When
he made dozen trips up and down
town between seven and eight-fifteen
O'Clock and was about to quit the
ob2nd-wagon, Bates found a sailor as
leep under the back seat. Disappointed
to think that this man had missed the
great show, Bates consoled his con-
science by giving him a program.

tee appointed by the Commercial Club
OF the City OF Ardmore, hereby state
that we have personally inspected
the dam at the city lake. and have
carefully gone over the plans and
estimates of Walter c. Dean. and We
unhesitatingly recommend that the
improvements outlined by Mr.. Dean
and hereto attached be made.
We are confident that by making
the improvements as herein outlined
that the said dam will need no fur
ther repairs and will stand as long as
time lasts. A smaller amount OF mon
ey could be probably used in fixing
said dam; but taking into considera-
tion the tremendous Importance of
the city lake to the city. and realiz.
ing the fearful consequence IL any
thing should happen to said dam. we.
therefore, think 1t is the safest and
wisest course for the city to fix the
same as there will be no possibility
of its giving away in the future.

The two rode freight out Of
Pauls Valley to Davis and there they
met gravcr obstacles. as there was
no train at all south Of Davis. But
being determined to get to Ardmorc,
they walked from Davis to Berwyn
Mr. Pugh states that crops between
Pauls Valley and Davis are complete
ly destroyed and that this is the
greatest loss that country has ever
suffered by water. He says: The rail-
roads are In n very bad condition
and that AZ least fifteen miles Of
track was under water between Pauls
Valley and Berwyn and In many
places the track was considerably
damaged, but the worst damage was
in the little canyon about five miles
south Of Davis.( where the track
was washed away for many feet and
that all the roadway or bed was
washed away and the track left sus
pended over a twenty foot hole. A
