There was Swimming

1t is awful to get accustomed to a
thing and then have it taken away
from you, and hundreds of people kept
the phone busy yesterday asking why
there was no swimming at Riverside.
The why was that the concrete work
on the new outlet gates had to be done
yesterday and consequently it was not
until after three o'clock that water was
allowed ia flow into the big pool and
the usual Monday afternoon crowd
went swimless. However. every draw
back has it's advantage and now that
the work has been done and the new
gates are in position, it will be possible
to empty the pool so much faster than
formerly that there will be no shallow
days now at ALL
The pool will be completely emptied
and scrubbed every Sunday and
Thursday night and yet there will be
no interference with the swimming.
The new outlets are 12-inch concrete
mains and when all four gates are OPP
ened full there will be some flow Of
water out of the pool into the Salt
proving a second Roosevelt dam for the
ranchers down the river providing as
it does a steady flow of 100 miners
inches a minute with flood water twice
a week.
The miners were still at work on the
beach yesterday and they worked
screens and shovels into play to good
great many tickets being found. The
hunt on Sunday proved such success
that it will be repeated shortly when a
larger sum of money will be hidden
There will be a complete change of
pictures at the movie theater tonight
and beginning next week, Monday will
become a special feature night when a
great big feature will be shown for the
one night only without extra charge. A
detailed announcement of these special
attractions will be printed later in the

j. Warren Kerrigan, the great motion
picture actor has been making many
friends for the releases of that cor
portion by his work in the Jacques
LeGrand" series. The second of these
great pictures is at the Plaza theater
today and today only. Jacques LeGrand
is one of the most fascinating charac-
tiers in the history of the French occu-
patton of America. He was beau
sabre in the best sense of the word.
This second adventure is called For
the Crown" The second feature on the
program is "Oda' or the mystery of the
Red Rose. The splendid impression
made by Protea last week will be re-
peated when this famous picture is
shown. 1t is an English release and is
full of thrills. Three reels are needed
to tell the story. The other two reels
too, making up an exceptional program
are a comedy The Janitor" from the
Keystone studios and For Mothers
Sake" a Kaybee. The program there
fore contains seven reels of splendid
films.

For two days Mitchell has suffered no

figures that, unless he experiences
another strain he will have no more

claring that Umpire Bryon was wrong

throw by Bescher to third went under
Wagner as he was sliding. Honus pick
