him to choose the wet method.
In brief these were based on the
apprehension that Garnboa dixie would
not be strong or high enough to keep
the water out Of the cut as the Gatur
Lake rose in the wet season. Also.
steam shovel operations would be re-
tarded by the seasonal rains which
would not affect the operation Of the
dredses and finally the measure was
one Of economy. It would have been

John x. Salmon Injured by Tumble In
to Basement Of First Baptist
Church.

Landing upon his knees in the base
ment Of The First Baptist church after
falling from window twenty-five feet
above, John K. Salmon, 90 years of
age, escaped last night with q frac-
ture Of the right knee cap.
The groans Of Salmon, who is an
iron worker and lives at 311 South Sec
ond West street, were heard by passing
citizens. The police were notified Of
the uncanny sounds issuing from the
boiler room of the church, corner Of
Fourth East and Second South streets.
Looking down from the basement
window through which the intoxicated
man had crashed to the cement floor,
Mounted Patrolmen Calton and Con,
yers saw the injured man huddled, ap-
parently unconscious from the effects
Of his fall. At the emergency hospi-
tai he was examined by DR.. Hardie K.
Lynch. The small bone over the right
knee joint was found broken into six
pieces. The patient was removed to
the county hospital, where an opera
ton will be performed this morning
that will include wiring together the
pieces Of the knee cap. The man, who,
according to DR.. Lynch, was much in
toxicated, is believed to have fallen
through the window while seeking shell
ter from the rain.
