ing the station, while the royal car.
riages intended for the use of the
party did not arrive until the Roose.
velts had been driven in other con.
veyances to the embassy. The rep
resentatives Of the foreign office were
greatly annoyed over the unfortunate
mixup.
In the absence of Emperor William,
who, bu for the death of his uncle,
King Edward, personally would have
met the former president, the official
party Of reception was headed by
Herr Won Schoen, secretary of foreign
affairs, who represented his majesty.
The railway authorities had deco
rated the main stairway descending
from the platform of the station with
double rows of potted plants.
The colonel's first engagement this
morning in Berlin was with q throat
specialist as he is still suffering from
hoarseness. A special conveyed the
party this afternoon to Potsdam where
the Roosevelts will be luncheon guests
of the emperor and empress.

asked Mr.. Reed on cross examination
"No," Mrs. Hyde answered.
Although the state questioned Mrs.

Hunton, using one of DR.. Twyman's
instruments.
did DR.. Twymanl say anything
about bringing the bleeding to a
close?" interrogated Mr.. Walsh.
DIR. Twyman said something about
enough blood having been removed.

as much blood as should have been
removed from any man. We took in
all, about three pints Of blood. DR..

"No, she went to the room and
when she returned. asked her II

She said he had. That was all of the
conpersation we hs9 about the cap

Miss Kelley's testimony was that
Col. Swope refused to take the cap
sules and she told DR.. Hyde 30.
Ibid Col. Swope ever discuss his

thing about the residuary portion Of
his estate?' -

NEARLY LOST HIS LIFE.

It appears that loss of life was mar rowly averted in the burning of the Hodges hotel and saloon at Mexicali last week. George Hodges, who was employed by his brother, owner of the building, attempted to save some val uables after the building was well ablaze. He ran into the burning building and having secured the arti- cles started for the door but was so overcome by smoke and gases that when within a few feet of the door he staggered and fell to the floor. He rose to his hands and knees and tried to crawl to'the open door but was too weak and fell again. Some Mex jeans saw him fall and two of them rushed into the room and dragged him to safety. Had they delayed a moment they could not have reached him. The loss is about $2,5OO.

wesrMoRsLANo's SCHOOL.
May Vote Bonds for Erection of Four
 Room Building.

As the result of a meeting of the school trustees of the Westmorland district, held Wednesday evening, it is probable that a vote will be taken by the electors of the district on a proposal to issue $6,OO0 in bonds for a schoolhouse, says the Brawley News It is proposed to build frame struc- ture of four rooms, with ample porches, adapted to Imperial Valley climate. The necessary formalities will be complied with and an election called as soon as possible, so that a contract may be let and work com menced on the schoolhouse as soon as cool weather commences in Septem- Der. Until a new building is erected school will be held in one of the cot tages owned by the Imperial Invest ment Company. The trustees believe that an economic plan will be fol- lowed by building four rooms as only a short time will elapse before they will be necessary. Two of the rooms will be connected by folding doors so that they will be available for assem- plies of public nature. The Impe- rial Investment Co.,. has given block 55 for the school.
 The trustees are George Biles, chairman; A. J. Hillhouse, clerk, and c. F. Bozart.

sIPHoN SHAFT COMPLETED.

The shaft on the Arizona side for the siphon to carry waters under the Colorado River at Yuma was con- pleted last week. The solid casing of concrete is down to a depth of 13O feet, where it rests on a base of solid sandstone. The water is now being pumped out of this shaft and as soon as this is completed work will be started on boring the tunnel under heath the river bed. On the Imperial County side, the shaft is down to a depth of 120 feet, and will be sunk to a depth of 150 feet. The engineers in charge expect to be able to deliver water through this siphon by the first of next year to the farmers of the Yuma Valley.

EMPIRE BUILDERS
Yuma Sun Enthuses Over Great Pro eress Made by imperial County
 Folk in Developing Desert.
CYuma Morning Sum-


 Since Yuma has been stirred. some what recently, by a good roads agita- tion and a proposition to issue bonds for the building of roads, it is we'll to look across the river and see what our neighbors in California are doing in that line. Conditions there are much the same as here with the ex- ception that they are four to five years ahead of Yuma county in general de- velopment and prosperity and have more taxable wealth.
 Recently the Board of Supervisors of Imperial county appointed com mittee of experts to look into the road situation and suggest what could be done to better the roads. The ex- perts have filed their report recom- mending that certain roads be built. They have located the roads and sug- gested the kind and character of roads to be constructed and in addition hay Q mapped out a scheme of road devel- OpulSHJ WHICH It WILL IaKe several years to complete.
 They also suggested that the county issue bonds to the full limit of their taxing power, which is per cent. of their assessed valuation, permitting a bond issue of s474, ,5OOOO, for the pur- pose of building the roads suggested and carrying out their scheme of road building. Think of it, half million dollars to be spent for good roads by one county and that county a pio- neer county, hardly out of the sage brush and the desert Imperial coun- ty is indeed an Imperial county and her people are an Imperial people. They are empire builders in the high est sense of the word Yuma county should watch Imperial and take some lessons from her progress and deveI- opment.
 The board of supervisors have cal led the bond election and we on this side of the river will watch with in terest this road building campaign.
