BREAK IN DITCH

ABOVE GREELEY WATERWoRKs
Washouts in Larimer-Weld and P""'
Dire Valley Canals

II will probably be week or ten
DAYS before the waters of the Pou-
are will recede to any great extent
This is because of the big break IN
both the Poudre Valley ditch and the
Larimer county ditch, neither OF
which will be in shape to carry any
water for at least ten days
The Larimer-W Weld man blames the
Poudre Valley man for causing the
big washout, which is in the neigh
bnrhood of the filter plant at the
head of the Greeley waterworks.
During the high waters of last week
il is said that the Poudre Valley
ditch man ran that canal full TO lts
banks, although cautioned that
was dangerous to do so. The Pou-
Dire Valley and the Larimer County
both leave the river above the water
works and their combined capacity
Is almost as much as the river Itself.
The Poudre Valley is higher up and
they parallel each otner for some
distance When the Poudre Valley
broke through its bank il rushed into
the Larlmer county with sHSh ioi'e

COMMERCIAL COMMITTEE BUSY
VIII EndeavOr to Persuade L. p. to
Change Julesburg Branch

d. A. Garfield and B. d. SanbOrn
have already been in consultation
in regard to the contemplated effort
Pacific through Greeley. While they
will push the project of short cut
of to Greeley on the Julesburg
branch, that will be only a secondary
consideration. The great effort of
the committee will be to induce the
railroad to build into Greeley from
their main line at either Sidney or
Kimball, Neb., through Grover and
connect at the end of the Crow Creek
line. This would give the Union Pa
cific the best grade and the shortest
route of any trunk line into Denver
and from the Nebraska town to Gree
ley the trains could make 100 miles
An hour If necessary.
Mr.. Sanborn said that If the latter
idea was carried out all tourists COM
ing over the main line through Gree
ley into Denver would have the op-
portunity OF viewing the greatest
irrigation district in the world

Valley, while along the Julesbure

GRADING STARTS

USING BIG ELEvATING GRADER
Street Railway Company Will Start
Laying Rails Monday

Street Supervisor Seaman began
grading on Seventh avenue Monday
morning. Instead of the usual la
borious method, he started in rail-
road fashion, using one Of the big
elevating graders which have been
a work on the Grow Creek branches
of the Union Pacific. The grader re-
moves and loads snto dump wagon
a yard of dirt every forty seconds
and it is worth while to watch it
operate. The grader is pulled by
eight horses, four abreast, and 1t 10
pushed by four others hitched to q
long pole in the rear. This twelve
horse team is handled by two men
and the horses and mules are train
ed so that they stop and start with
the precision of soldiers.
The work began Monday be-
tween Eleventh and Twelfth streets.

dozen dump wagons carry the dirt

President Allen of the new rail-
road company is extremely anxious
to get started on the street car track
and the street supervisor says tina,
by Saturday night he will have nm
ished the three blocks which neces.
state the greatest amount of work
Ey Monday next gang of men will
be put to work laying the rails.
1t is hoped that the property own

in the past twenty-four hours the
river has raised 18 inches and has
reached the high water mark Of ten

are still out Of onmission. or large
amount of water might be diverted
through them.
The situation is alarming for the
farmers along the river. A few more

water that has ever been known In

with water, but instead of a few

Editorial
Opinion

Changes in the Human Form.
Boston Glooe.
The tailors and shoe dealers Of London
have accumulated some interesting stats
tics on the change in the figures of men
and women. According TO the tailors, there
are two new types of men; that is, as re-
CARDS their figures. One is the man who
plays great deal of golf. or indulges
largely in other forms Of outdoor sport
this man is growing taller and simmer.
On the other hand, the man who has given
up walking and horseback riding for the
motor car is becoming prosaieally fat;
during the last two years there has been
such a waist development that the makers
Of readymade clothing have been forced
TO add an extra half inch to the waists OF
trousers. For the athletic type OF man
the average chest measurement is sS in
ches with waist OF "a; while the motoring
man. though shorter, demands S5-inch
waist.
As for the ladies'. it is a delicate SUBJ
ject but the dealers feel the truth must
prevail and they reluctantly admit that
their customers feet are much larger
than they used to be- Two years ago the
average was No. 4. and No . was kept in
stock; this latter size has now been given
up and No. s has appeared. while the
average has increased to No. 8. II this has
been accomplished in two years who can
guess the changes to come?
