.SURMOUNT TROUBLE
IN JAWBONE STRIP
THIRTY-SIx TUNNELS WILL BE
BORED
Board of Public Works Members Find
That Mulholand's Engineers Have
the Preliminary Work Well
In Hand

President Albert Hubbard of the
board of public works and Inspector
of Public Works d. K. Edwards made
a personal inspection this week of the
proposed work at Jawbone canyon, one
of the expensive sections of the Owens
aqueduct lines.
Big engineering obstacles confront
the engineers here and the best men
in the Southern Pacific service are
now assisting that company in carry
ing out its contract to run a branch
line to that point within sixty days.
All geographical difficulties have
been conquered by Chief Engineer
William Mulholland and his staff, who
have surveyed and resurveyed the
route which the aqueduct will pursue.
AS the section is many miles from
civilization there are many difficulties
in the way. There are some fairly
level mesas of clay or cemented grav-
els, and here construction will not be
SO difficult. But where sides of noun
tains are traced and where canyons
must be spanned or bridged by steel
syphon fumes and where peaks sud
denly obstruct the line tunnels must
be dug through the peaks, and the en-
tire work will cost about $3000,0 900.
Thirty-six tunnels must be driven in
this section, one of which will be one
mile in length. This bore is several
hundred feet beneath the summit of
a mountain.
Three different contractors will prob
ably do the Jawbone work, as it has
been divided into the Red rock, Jaw
bone and Pine sections, and it will re-
Quire at least two and a half years to
finish the contract.

For the young girls wear there is
nothing quite so satisfactory as the
shirtwaist dress, and the new tub
fabrics are excellent for it's develop
ment. The model sketched is one OF
excellent style, though extremely sim
pie in construction. The plain blouse
waist, with it's rundown "Peter Pan
collar and jaunty breast pocket, is the
most popular of the new models, while
the panel effect in the skirt is most
becoming, lending height and slender
ness to the wearer. The skirt is a new
five-gored, fitting smoothly over the
hips and fiaring widely at the hem.
For trimming. bands of embroidery
braid or stitched folds of the material
may be used; or the skirt may be left
plain. Linen, pongee, silk or sicillienne
would develop nicely by this mode. the
15-year size requiring 3s yards "a
inches wide for the waist and Az yards
27 inches wide for the skirt.
Two patterns: 4346-Four sizes. IA to
II years. 4S47-Four sizes, IA to II
years. The price of these patterns is
20 cents. but either will be sent upon
receipt of 10 cents.
