due notice will be given in the pa
pers.
Mr.. Simpson desires those interest
ed in the mission, and willing to take
part in it, TO meet him this afternoon
at $3.50 at the Mission House, corner
Government and Reus streets, to dis
cuss several important features, as
well as to arrange a program for the
opening II is hoped that each
church will send their quota of mem
bers.
The sympathy OF the people is
necessary to such a work as this
promises TO be, and the invitation is
again extended to forward a card.
addressed, The Mission if YOU wish
to subscribe, or make a donation Of
any article whatsoever, books, maya
zines, etc.
The mission thanks those who have
come to the rescue with donations
and monthly subscriptions, and begs
TO acknowledge the monthly pledge
from Bluff Springs through John
Parker Of S5.71- Will those attending
to the collections in other places
please collect and remit?
The promoters believe there is none
so poor but can give something-it
is not the large donations of the few
that the mission is depending upon
for support, but the small donations
of the many. As suggested in last
Sundays paper, even % cents per
month, Or less than one cent per day.
with the good wishes behind it Will
be blessed. Don't forget to send a
card for the representative to call.
Fitting up costs money, and every-
thing Is doubly acceptable at this
time.

CHOPPY SEAS
IN BAY AFTER
SHORT STORM
soUALL OF SHORT DURATION
MADE THINGS RATHER UN-
PLEASANT ALONG BAY FRONT
BUT NO DAMAGE At ALL RE-
SUITED.

With the knowledge that the Unit
ed States weather bureau was keep
ing tab on gulf disturbance to the
westward, together with the sight of
very dark clouds, many persons along
the water front were not in any easy
state of mind for a short time SAT
urday afternoon when squau of
fierce proportions raced over the har-
Dor and made things exceedingly IN
pleasant for a short time. No dam
age at ali resulted, but while the
blow lasted, more than one barome-
ter's face was searched for an IN
wanted backward turn of the needle.
Such did not occur however, the In
dictator standing at 30 during the
afternoon.
The squat broke out from the east
about o'clock. but began to and
did ouhside almost as quickly as it
started It vas noticed that the tide
was higher tEan usual yesterday aft
ernOon. but those familiar with such
matters attached no special import
ance to such 4 condition, saying sucn
was not unusual at this season.
ChopUy seas prevailed during the dft
ernoon as an aftermath of the blow
Although ready for sea, several
vessels remained in port until today,
awaiting more favorable weather con
dftions, or awaiting until the weather
observers could more fully and cor
rectly report upon the extent and
progress of the reported disturbance
of the Louisiana coast.

bridge is shown with the flood near
ing it's greatest level. No damage of
any kind resulted to the structure,
although considerable ice and debris
were running.
No backing up Of the current above
the bridge could be detected. In fact,
the usual arguments made against
arch bridges, that the form of the
arch tends to obstruct the channel
and dam the current, were effectually
answered by the behavior of this
bridge in flood, as indeed they have
been time and again by other arch
bridges.
Even engineers have been prone to
insist that a slight decrease in water
way area would result in disastrous
damming of the current, whereas the
effect is in reality extremely slight
and is offset by increased velocity Of
current which the arch structure is
abundantly able to withstand.
We submit the statement of May
berry & Parker, men who have given

cement rail, this bridge would still
possess a factor of safety of six or
seven against overturning."
In other words this bridge is de-
signed to Withstand without danger
or injury, a strain six or seven times
as great as would be imposed by a
flood entirely submerging the bridge
and higher even than the side rails.
Furthermore, the reforestation of the
Verde and Salt river watersheds, the
action of the Roosevelt and Granite
Reef dams, and the increase in the
use of water for irrigation purposes
will all tend to regulate the flow and
reduce the floods in the Sat river at
this point
Inasmuch as concrete bridges are
almost unknown to the people of
Maricopa county, we herewith publish
two pictures of a concrete bridge
similar in character to the proposed
bridge at Center street.
The bridge referred to was con-
structed across the Wabash river, at

the average high water mark from
two to seven feet. We understand
that there are records of only two in
stances in the last twenty years when
this high water mark was exec ded;
one in 1891, when the water was four
feet above the average high water
mark, the other in 1905, when it was
two feet higher. From this record
you will see that the bottom of this
bridge would have cleared all high
water levels for the past twenty years
except that of 1891. Even in the in
stance of the last date. some fourteen
hundred feet of the bridge would still
have been above high water level.
In all the above Instances we are
talking of the bottom of the Orders
and not the roadway. For that mat
ter, were you to have flood of suf-
ficient elevation, so that the water
level would rise to the height of the

Some Engineering Facts Regarding a

To the Editor of The Republican:
Sir:-The promoters of the Tempe

would guarantee the structural part
of the bridge, but would not guaran-
tee the bridge against being washed
out by high water"
In contravention of this statement
we quote from a letter of Mayberry &
Parker, accompanying plans and spe-
cification of the proposed bridge.

The measure was introduced last week

to municipal employees as well as to

The bill provides that all employees
in counties of he first-class be paid

perfectly clear what is meant. That

PARTNERS SPLIT
WHEN ARGUMENT
OVER $40 ARISES

William L, Montrose and Simon
Asnis, partners I'm real estate, have
been making a great deal of money
together, but disputes over a $40 ac-
count and an oil contract have unset
tied their relations and they have APP
pealed to two courts to adjust their
differences. Ernest F. Keer was APP
pointed by the Court of Chancery veg
terday as receiver for the assets OF the
real estate firm of Asnis & Montrose.
Montrose is manager of ana a stock
holder in the O. w. Young Company,
doing an oil business in Frelinghuysen
avenue. Asnis was working for him.
when an agreement was made between
him and the company whereby it was
to sell cotton-seed oil to him exclu-
sively. Asnis claims that he was to
buy the oil from the Young company,
and to be responsible for the SET
Element Of bills to the company.
but the Young company says th~t
amounts collected by Asnis for cotton
seed oil are their money. So when the
company found that Asnis had collected
$40 for oil without turning 1T in to
them, 1t made out a complaint for en-
bezzlement against him. Asnis was re.
leased BY Police Judge Hahn on Mi
own recognizance.
