alone above the junction of the two streams was 10000 second feet. As the construction of the Roosevelt dam will impound the waters of the Salt river watershed above the dam site. the 150.000 second feet may be elim mated as factor in this or any other problem of bridge construction at points on Salt river below the junction of the two streams; hence, We may safely take the maximum flood dis charge of the Verde river G35, 1000 sec ond feet) as a basis from which to cal culate the required clear waterway section or opening for the crossing of the Salt river now proposed to be bridged. The attached plan is prepared and the following estimate of cost compiled on this basis.
 Referring to the attached plan-be- tween stations 300 and 20-17, a dis tance of 1717 feet, and between the as- stunned elevation 9S for a permissible high water level and the flow line of the river we have an area of cross section of approximately 17,435 square feet With this and the other values which are known and which enter into the general equations for the velocity and discharge of water in open chan nels, we find the value of v (velocity in feet per second) to be S.3S and the value of Q (cubic feet per second) to be 146.105. While this result is in eX- cess of the volume of discharge to be provided for, the excess is none too great considering the reduction in the above area of waterway cross section and the retarded velocity that takes place when the bridge piers and tres tie bents are in place. We must con clude, therefore, that with the highest water level permissible (elevation 9S) the width of the channel to be bridged must not be less than 1717 feet. in or der to safely allow for a discharge of the 135,000 second feet under consider ation.
 Plan of Bridge.
 Having determined the length of the bridge required. we would recommend that the 1717 feet of bridging be made up of 9-105 it. panel through steel truss spans of the Pratt type over the main channel on the north end and 760 feet of trestle approach on the south end
 All calculations are based on a bridge of 20 feet clear width of road way The spans provide for dead load of 725 pounds per foot of span, to- gether with a live load of 90 pounds per square 1t. of bridge floor.
 The piers figured on for the 105 foot spans each made up of two five foot diameter steel cylinders 21 feet long spaced 21 feet center to center with steel diaphram bracing between. 5-3O foot piles driven inside of each cylin- der with tops of piles 12 feet below top of piers. cylinders filled with concrete to their bottom.
 Estimate of Cost.
 The estimate of cost of such struc- ture, together with the grading and embankment approach to the south end of bridge and the riprap protection for the same. is as follows:

ENGINEER MCCLURE
 0N BRIDGE BUILDING
Letters From Him Approving the Cen
 ter Street Project.

To the Editor of The Republican, Sir:
 We think the best answer to the publication of the Tempe bridge com mittee in which they seek to show that Mir. J. C. Mcclure. engineer of the Randolph lines, has not approved the Center street site. is to publish the facts regarding the connection of Mir Mcclure with this movement
 In April, 1908, MT. Mcclure made a personal examination of the Center street bridge site in company with MT Vernon l.. Clark and MT. Dwight B Heard, approved the same and prepar- ed a careful estimate under date of May 2, 1908, submitted at that time set of plans recommended, all of which are in the hands of this committee. and we herewith append copy of MT. Me Clure's letter to MT Vernon l.. Clark under date of May 2nd, 1908, on this subject:
 Tucson, AriZ., May 2, 1908. Vernon L. Clark. Esq,
 Phoenix. Ariz.
 Dear Sir:
 In regard to the project of bridging the Salt river at the foot of Center street, Phoenix, and to your request for a recommended plan and estimate of the cost of it's execution. the follow ing estimate is submitted. together with a plan profile of crossing showing the recommended waterway opening and type of recommended bridge over the same.
 Capacity of Waterway Provided.
 The photographic records of the U. $. geological survey show the maxi mum flood discharge of record for Salt river to be 2S5,OOO second feet. this record being for the combined dis charge of the Salt and Verde rivers below their junction during the flood of February, 1891. The record dis charge at this time for the Salt river

 J. C. MCCLURE,

Yours truly.
 (Signed) J. C. MCCLURE,

 The present plans for the concrete steel bridge at the same site which MT. Mcclure had approved, provide for the clear waterway under the bridge, after deducting the width of all piers, of 1908 feet-nearly 200 feet in excess of the channel which MT. Mcclure recom- mended should should be bridged. and as an additional precaution, the foun- dations have been enlarged and deep ened and the bridge raised several feet above the height suggested by Mir. Me Clure in order to allow for the passage under it of maximum floods.
 Recently some position having been raised as to whether Mir Mcclure had approved of the Center street site. he was written on the subject and we quote from his letter of April 2nd. 1909 as follows:
 Tucson. Arizona. April End. 1909. MT Dwight B. Heard,
 Phoenix, Arizona
 Dear Sir:
 Lour favor of March 22nd in regard to question as to whether or not a bridge will stand, can be constructed over the Salt river, at the proposed Center street site
 do not hesitate to give it as my opinion, nor hesitate to go on record as stating that a bridge that will stand. can be constructed at this location. provided piers are carried down to a proper depth below the river bottom and provided further that sufficient area of clear waterway is obtained be- tween the piers and in the length of the bridge, to carry the probable flood discharge.
 Yours very truly.
 (Signed) J. C. MCCLURE,
 Engineer Maintenance of Way. The efficient and highly valued ser vices of MT. Mcclure, which were vol untarily contributed without compen- sation, to this highly important public project are fully appreciated by this committee and citizens generally
 The above communications from him are published that there may be no misunderstanding of his position.

Anti-Fats and Starvation Diet Result

Anti-Fats and Starvation Diet Result
 in Wrecking of the System.
 In cases of fat, the food is not properly assimilated-that is, part of the food is retained by the body which should not be retained, and part which should be retained is thrown out. This does not always mean dyspepsia or indigestion, for one may have a very healthy stomach and apparent cause.
 It is evident to any one, then, that to try to starve away the fat is both ridiculous and dangerous.
 The use of anti-fats. remedies that positively stop digestion sooner or later, results in a breakdown of some organ and consequent disease.
 Certain tropical fruits have been known for some time to be remarka- ble regulators of the system.
 This is what Rengo does. It con tains a tropical fruit mixture which has this faculty of perfectly assimi lating food taken into the body. That is the secret. It has resulted in mak- ing Rengo a marvel as a fat reducer and a health builder, and a Godsend to all fat people.

Out of the many letters which we
received, correcting the mistakes in
the letter of little Mary Stanley, not
a single one caught every error.
Nearly all found out that Athens was
in North Georgia, and three and three
made six instead of five. The mis-
takes in spelling were well corrected,
but many left the sc" in Judgment,
One of the most fruitful sources of
error is the faulty use of ''shall'' and
will" and few of our members
caught this point. 81 am twelve

to read 81 will be-" instead of II

bly, by twill hope" instead of hope"

not even find the right letter. 9th
