FLOOD DANGER
REDUCED TO
MINIMUM

The little freeze last night came
just in time to prevent possible
damage by floods in this section,
and conditions all over the state
are better today than yesterday.
The Northern Pacific reports
that everything is running
smoothly all along the line with
no serious washouts or landslides
anywhere. 1t was freezing east
of the mountains this morning, SO
the danger was minimized.
Train schedules are being more
nearly adhered to and the next
few days will probably see every
thing running as before the big
snow.
General superintendent Palmer
said today that the road did not
anticipate any serious trouble
now.
The freeze west of the noun
tains checked a rush of water
from the hills.
This made conditions better
than it was expected they would
be last night.

Mahoney declares he left Sang
atte at 8 o'clock the morning OF
Sept. IL, last year, wearing a
bathing suit lined with thick
coating Of prepared grease, that
acted as a blanket and kept the
water from his chest, back and
abdomen, and retained the heat.
1t was 4:30 the morning of the
18th when he crawled from the
water on the English coast.
During the swim Mahoney took
advantage Of the tides and

TO WHARF
IS BRILLIANTLY
LIGHTED

The new tungsten lamps on Pa
cific avenue from the city hall to
the Flyer dock are big success,
according to the opinion of those
who use this street. The arc
lamps were taken off last night
and tungstens strung along the
way, and the street was made
much lighter on considerably less
current.
The new play of City Electric
Ian Lauzon promises to be sue
cess and to give the city better
light at less consumption of cur
rent. This plan may be a big
factor in keeping the peak load
down next winter below the 5000
horsepower mark, If it is general
ly employed.

HUNGRY men {
Remain ON
BIG ESTATE

CARDIFF, Wales, Jan. 16.-
Robert Williams, leader of the
"squatters," who have seized the
estate of the Marquis of Butte, de-
clared today that he is determin-
ed to remain there in spite of at
tempts made to Gust him.
Williams has taken fresh hope
since he discovered what he claims
are flaws in the title to the land.
He will use. this evidence as the
basis of fight in the event that
the marquis attempts to drive the
squatters, numbering 500, from
the premises.
The marquis has not decided on
the course he will pursue. 1t is
generally thought, however, that
he will permit the hungry men to
remain and till the soil.

ATLANTA, Ga, Jan. 16.-Pres-

the greatest ovations that Georgia
citizens ever extended to one man.
From the time that Taft's train

ers.
The banquet here in Taft's hon.

Of its kind that the city has ever

Number present was limited to 500
of the prominent men, the entire
city and state shared In it.
Judge Taft was completely won
over, and exclaimed, "I had not

South has won me-"

foot ball.
0. o. Jonnum, Minneapolis, for
mer national champion jumper,
made a record Of 100 feet in 1907,
says that a jumper must have a
clear, quick-thinking brain and
must be in the best of physical
condition to be successful ski
jumper. Without these qualities
one is apt to be fatally injured.
Minneapolis has the highest ski
jump in America. The jumpers
start from the top of scaffold,
80 feet high, dash down a slide
and then leap far out over an in
cline, that is almost perpendicu-
lar and $50 feet high. When one
stand at the foot of the hill and
sees the jumper leaping over the
embankment. the jumper appears
to be about mile high and looks
like Orville Wright out for a
flight in his aeroplane.
