FIXED IT UP AND
ARE BACK AT WORK
rFrom Mondays paily.l

After all possible information had
been recorded at the board meeting
last night the terms on which the
seniors were to be reinstated into
their former happy home were made.
When school took up this morn
ing the seniors gave their assent and
they are now back at work. Don I
get mistaken idea-it's work. Real
and unqualified work and unless
something comes along to trip up the
suspicious which are floating around
they'll keep on working till the
game is over.
The two boys who were tempor-
arily suspended last Friday and who
came back to attend chapel and in
for whom the class walked
out, got an extended vacation when
Dhey returned with the class this
morning.

TRY Cement Poles.
UNITED TELEPHONE COMPANY
AMONG FIRST IN THE
EXPERIMENT.
Several Poles Have Been Set in the
Cityt--AIr. Brown Says They
Are Success Cheaper
Than Cedar.

The United Telephone company Il
the pioneer in the use of hollow ce
ment telephone poles for its lines
The company has been experiment.
, ing for some time on the proposition
and within the last week the first
of the poles were set on north Broad
way. Il
A few telephone companies in the
country, including company at
Manhattan, have tried solid cement
posts but they have proved to be
too heavy for practical use. The
Hollow cement posts manufactured
here are the first known to tele-
phone men in the country and while
they are only an experiment Mr..
Brown said this morning that he
felt sure they would prove to be a
success.
The poles which have been made
are 80 feet long, have diameter
of IL inches at the bottom and 6
inches at the top and weigh 225O
pounds each. The solid cement posts
the same size weigh 1900 pounds.
The hollow posts are reinforced with
eight twisted steel bars the length
Of the post. Steps are made in the
poles and when they are once set
they are in for keeps.
The hollow cement posts accord
ing to Mr.. Brown are about $1l
cheaper than the cedar posts but
the extra help in setting brings them
up to the cost of the cedar post set. |
The setting Of the post il not as
difficult as was at first anticipated.
The company here expected to build
a derrick for the raising of the
Bosfs bnt ten men. were able to ham
die them with little trouble.
They were given severe test be-
fore they were set and we're able to
stand pull of 1000 pounds from
the top. If they prove successful
as is now anticipated the first ex-
,ensive use on the home line will
De made on the transmission line to
he power house. Later all resettings
will be made with cement posts.

TWO BRIDGES ARE IN DANGER
Expect River to Rise 1S Feet at Sa-
lina--Has Not Started to Rise

High.

The heavy rains in the western
part of the state caused the Smoky
river to reach stage of TN feet
at Ellsworth yesterday. The river
was not as high as 1t was in the
spring last year. The drift however,
was very bad and as a result the
Frisco bridge there was moved out
of line about IL inches. The drift
became so bad that 1t was impos-
sible to keep the bridge clear.
The Frisco train was compelled
to tie up on the south side Of the
Smoky river Sunday nightw
The following dispatches from
points along the river tell OF the
condition of the river west of abb
lene:

the south side OF the Smoky Hill
river here are threatened by flood
waters az result of heavy rains

of their stock to higher ground. The
Frisco bridge and the wagon bridge
across the Smoky Hill here are both
expected to go out at any time. Both
bridges are impossible now.

HIGH SCHOOL, GLASSES
IN MAY DAY SCRAP.
Seniors Walk Out When Members
3 Are Suspended.
Trom Fridays paiiy.l

Memories of the olden days were
recalled last night when the streets
of the city took on the appearance
Of the besieged Mexican capital with
the members of the high school
classes playing the parts of the op-
posing forces in real and life size
class scrap. For several years the
classes have been dwelling together
in peace and prosperity has been
reigning within their borders. For
this reason the fight last night came
az surprise to the unsuspecting
populace.
The real trouble started "a hours
earlier when one of the classes plac-
ed tss0iors on the school building.
Last night it was generally under
stood that something was about to-
pop" and the students began to
gather around the street corners,
logged up for the occasion. At 81
O'Clock the forces had gathered and
the attack began. There are some
class scraps and again there are
class scraps but the scrap last night
in class by itself. The principal
weapon of warfare was eggs. They |
were served scrambled and deviled, |
spanked and sandwiched and the
great majority of them were of very
questionable character. After each
army had been pretty we'll mussed
Up with the hen fruit other wea-
'ons we're used. Each side seemed

force was captured and h
led. Fourteen fellows then piled t
n to see that no escape was eff 4
scted. The process began by clip
ing two swaths across the head
ne running from front to back Il
hile the other ran from ear to ear
he patient was then favored with
muscilagef shampoo after which =,

was a very touching and effective &
