FLOOD WATERS
NOW RECEDING
Cooler Weather Proved Bless
ing to Residents on West
Side of City.
CONDITIONS ARE IMPROVING
TROUBLE NOT ENTIRELY PASSED
BUT WORST is NOW OVER.

Water in City creek was more than a
foot lower at IL o'clock last night than
at any time since the heavy floods be-
gan over a week ago, and for the first
time in a week the men of the street
department were allowed a few hours
rest. The cool weather which followed
the rain of Onday proved a blessing
to residents of the west side of the city.
and should the decrease in the amount
of water continue for two days there
will be but little further trouble on
North Temple street.
Big Cottonwood creek also showed a
drop of fourteen inches yesterday, and
the situation throughout the county
was somewhat improved, although the
roads in many places are still under
water and many of the county bridges
washed out.
Residents Of Big COttOnwo ut
off from the outside world a.. a &C :
mittee waited on Willard Snow, county
road commissioner. yesterday, inform
ing him of their isolated condition. The
journey to his headquarters was made
on foot, as it was impossible to come
by any other means. Mr.. Snow and a
gang of men started Immediately for
the canyon, and the work of restoring
the bridges and draining roads is now
being pushed.
The drop in the water yesterday does
not mean that the foods are over, for
warm weather will bring down another
heavy flow of water, but the officials do
not believe the situation will again be-
come as serious as it has been during
the last four or five days.

trouble With city Creek.

The real trouble now being ex-
perienced with City creek, on North
Temple street, is that the bed of the
creek is filled to the top with sand and
gravel. When this obstruction is re-
moved the creek will be able to carry
away all the water that is coming down
without any trouble. Meanwhile the
water must take to the street.
a large gang of men were at work all
day Tuesday, up to their knees in wa
ter, digging sand and gravel from the
waterway. When they have completed
cleaning out the creek the overflow
at Sixth West street will be stopped
and the roadway given an opportunity
TO drain. The water on the north side
Of the street was over foot lower
yesterday afternoon and the sidewalks
were passable for the first time in four

Car Tracks Ruined.


The south track of the fair grounds
line was out OF commission most of yes
terday on account of the heavy over
flow at Sixth West, where the water
leaves the conduit and enters the open
stream again The tracks at this point
have been raised two feet above their
normal grade and both lines will be
open for traffic today.
No further trouble was experienced
with the water on North Temple street,
from West Temple to Third West
street, yesterday or last night, but a
gang of men were kept on duty patrol
ing the banks to give warning should
the water show a tendency to rise.

are ruined and will not be fit for use
for many days. The roadbed is entire
" washed out and the tracks have
dropped into the bed Of the stream for
a distance of fifty feet near Third West
street.
The embankments of manure piled
up along North Temple street are Civ
ing of foul Odors and making life
miserable for the residents along the
street. The condition, however, cannot
be remedied until the danger from the
high water has entirely passed.
The Heber City branch of the Rio
Grande Western Railroad company is
still out of commission. but it Is ex-
peCted that trains viii be in operation
over this line tomorrow. The stream
has gone down during the last twenty
four hours, making it possible for the
construction gang to make better head
way with their work of rebuilding the
rOadbed.
Losses Are Heavy.
The losses resulting in the city and
county from the floods are much great
er this year than ever before, but as
yet it is impossible to estimate the total
amount. Many acres of farming lands
have been under water for more than a
week and some crops viii be a total
loss. Roads, bridges and sidewalks in
all parts Of the\ county have been
washed out, and the expense of re-
placing the bridges and repairing the
roads will be heavy
In the city the principal damage has
been done to the property on North
Temple street and to the roadways.

along the street have been cracked and

Death Of Miss Marie MePhesters.

Trough the Natchez Democrat we have
learned Of the death at Bowlder, Colo
RADIO, on May 26th, of Miss Marie Dun
bar McPheeters, daughter of the late DIR.
and Mrs. VIM. A. McPheeters of Nat
chez, Miss.
Miss McPheeters was well known in
this parish, where she had visited, and
numbered many sincere friends and ad-
mirers. She has for a number of years
been compelled to live in the West, where
the climate has preserved her life, but
it has long been known that the dread
disease of which she was victim could
never be eradicated. She was sincerely
loved and admired by those who had
come in contact with spirit and dispo-
sition so noble, so pure, so thoughtless of
self. Fully realizing her condition, de-
prived Of most of the things that in this
life seem valuable to others, a confirmed
invalid and sufferer, she lost none of the
brightness, sweetness or generosity that
had made her dear to the friends of her
earlier life. accomplishing, sure in her
perfect Christian faith, she accepted the
harsh degree of nature with but little
thought of her own condition, her most
serious care being for others.
Dissolution may return to earth that
which of earth is created, but to have
known a life so pure and perfect, to have
once felt the influence and the uplift of
a spirit so noble and generous, is to know
that for the soul there is no death; is to
accept Christ's teachings of a reward in
perfect future state.
