PROTECTION ASSURED
From KaW and Soldier Greek
Floods and Freshets
On the North Side Is the Gen.
eral Opinion.

Soldier creek will soon be confined TO
Its banks in spite of the freshets ana
floods of 1903, 1904 and 1908. The IRE
quent rains of those years caused the
people to think and devise some
method or plan to keep the Kansas rlV-
p er and Soldier creek within their banks.
After studying the proposition thor
oughly and with the assistance of civil
Engineer Parkhurst a plan was finally
agreed upon. Some thought the bridges
constructed on the Kansas river shouId
be raised and widened, others TAXED
of excavating a canal to start about
two and one-half miles west of the
Melan bridge at a point known as the
Highlands and run diagonally across
to Soldier creek uniting about Two
blocks west of Central avenue bridge
or at the Curtis grave yard others
maintained the river should be dredged
the sand taken out and one channel
created in the middle of the stream so
the volume of water would keep in the
bed.
After considering all of these plans it
was decided to construct a system or
bikes.
These dfkes surround North Topeka
running west about two and one-hat
miles from the Kansas avenue bridge
And then starting near the Curtis
graves and following Soldier creek 10
the Santa Fe bridge on the river, and
then to the Melan bridge. The d1kes
are being built by Dolman & Co, and
average about eighty feet at the base
and about thirty feet at the top, they
are composed of dirt and sand which
is found close to the banks of these
two streams and REINFORCED by con-
crete rip-raping where the current
comes in direct contact with the dixie.
The construction is interesting.
A big steam shovel, pulled by sixteen
horses, starts the work each day. These
horses force the shovel to fill up wagon
loads of dirt which are unloading on
the dixie.
There are five gangs, composed of
thirty or forty men to each gang, and
about as many teams, wagons and
scrapers. The dixie averages about six
feet in height and in many places more.
1t is three inches above the 1903 high
water mark. In one place it is twenty
seven feet six inches high for several
hundred feet where the water came
through in the preceding years during
the floods.
While a few people still argue that
floods will still claim North Topeka in
times of high water in the Kaw river, |
the general opinion prevails the work |
is heavy enough to withstand the |
floods. The bikes along the Mississippi !
river are not as heavy as the Kansas |
dikes and turn the combined waters of
the Missouri and Ohio.
The bikes are nearing completion and |
within sixty days the people of North |
Topeka feel assured they will be pro- |
tected from the flood waters of the |
Kaw and Soldier creek.

 of directors was reOrganized and the
 management of the property placed in
 the hands of people closely identified ! with the management of the Utah Copper company The ore reserves have been developed very rapidly the last few months, and now the bonds are selling at 105. It is estimated that with the connecting up of a few more drill~holes there will be 15,OOO,OO0 tons of ore actually blocked out in the property, which will average about 21a
 per cent copper. Plans are now being drawn for the construction of a 3,00O.- ton mill. and it is expected that work will be started on this within a very few months. Ray Consolidated has 50O,OO0 shares of the par value of s1O outstanding. of which 300,000 are re- served for the conversion of the bonds. We understand that Hayden. Stone & Co. have exercised their option on S1. 800, ,O0O, being the balance of the issue of $3,000.000 6 per cents. and which are convertible into stock at par Buy Ray Consolidated for big speculative and dividend profits
 Ray Ce@tral: Immediately adioin- ing the Ray Consolidated property and in the same porphyry belt in the Kel- vim camp is a series of claims which have just been taken over by the General Development company, of which Adolph Lewisohn is president and which company originally owned the Miami Copper company. A new company has been formed, known as the Ray Central Copper company, to esquire these claims from the Kelvin Calumet company. which was owned in Philadelphia. That company had outstanding 2,250.0OO shares of stock of a par value of S1 each. These old shares are being exchanged for Ray Central shares on the basis of one new for five of the old. or a total of 450.0O0 shares of Ray Central Tn ad- dition 350,000 shares of treasury stock have been sold at s1 per share to pro- vide funds for development These shares are just beginning to be traded in and are selling at about $1S5 per share. The Ray Central has about 2000000 tons of ore blocked out. which will run better than 215 per cent.
