DESIRE FOR SPEED
GOOD WHEN UNDER
CONTROL---BR|DGE
Methodist Pastor Praises Mo-
tive of Winning But Urges
Practice of safety First
Rule.

Announcement of a theme in no
unusual or sensational manner was
made" declared Rev. U. s. A. Bridge
before talking on speeding yesterday
at Grace Methodist church. IF any
person, having misinterpreted the
theme, is present expecting to hear a
scathing denunciation of some one, an
attack on the dance or q recital Of
some tragedy that would harrow the
feelings of any one, he will be disap-
pointed, for the sermon will not con-
tain anything of that kind. Should
such a one be present, he may leave
during the singing of the next song.
"Jehu, the commander-in-chief of Jc-
horam's army, was known as the mad
driver. This practice of furious driv-
ing was an index of his character
What he did he did without delay in
an effective way and with all his
might. Men like Jehu are the men
who do things. They turn the world
upside down and right side up.
Insist on Safety.
Automobile accidents are numer-
GUS these days. Our modern life is
more hazardous than the simple life.
We would not therefore, return to the
former life. Railroad accidents are less
numerous than formerly, because the
companies are insisting on safety
first The policy needs to be OBJ
served by automobilists.
Progress is attended with new dis.
comforts and dangers as we'll as COM
forts and blessings. Modern convent
ences are not to be put away. The
discomforts and dangers are to be re.
duced as much as possible.

some instances be due to a desire not
to eat the dust from another car, but

CHAMPAIGN, ILL.,, July 2O-The sto-
ry that body was found in a cemetery
here had been partially identified as
that of Catherine Winters, daughter
of the New Castle Qnd) dentist, was
utterly discredited at noon today by
the statement of Undertaken Guy Stew
art, who said that the body was that
of a daughter of Nicholas Larry, a
man too poor to provide last resting
place for the girl in the better section
of the cemetery. Sexton Brown, who
went to New Castle, Ind, supposedly
to search for the man who had
brought the body to the cemetery. re-
turned from Indiana this morning.
There is absolutely no foundation
for the story that this body is that
of the missing Winters girl" said
Undertaken Stewart In April, 1913,
Nick Larry of Urbana, brother to a
man recently murdered there, came
to me and asked that take charge of
the body of his child and place it in
the receiving vault here.
Larry Had No Money.
"The casket in the box was marked
Larry, and was only two and one-half
feet long. 1t was certainly not more
than three feet long. Larry told me
that he had taken the child to Florida
because it was SO sick, and that 1t died
there. He purchased no lot, because
of his inability to do SO, and for that
reason the body of the little girl was
placed in receiving vault.
1T was there ever since. until re-
Gently when it was placed in the
potter's field. Larry has paid no
charges for the storage of the body in
the receiving vault. l did not see the
body, but this morning l have fully
identified Larry as the map who came
to me. This was the only body re-
ceived at that time, SO l see no earthly
reason for any connection with the
Winters case.

Thereafter the only expense of irrigation will be the cost of ac- tual maintenance of the system. which the engineers declare will not exceed forty cents per acre per an- mum. As against this cost, more over, the association will be able to recompense itself and lay up money besides by selling the electric power and light developed by the fall of excess water at the dam.
 At the present time farm develop ment has advanced to the point where approximately 60,00O acres of land in New Mexico are in cultiva- tion under this great project Some thing like 5O,000 acres stretch around awaiting the magic touch of the water which the completion of the dam and canals will bring to it.

School Trustee of Known Excellent Service Pre- vailed Upon to Again Run in District 1-Col- lings for Union District

Another school election will be held in Phoenix on Saturday next when one trustee will be chosen for school district No. 1, which is the Phoenix district, and one trustee will be chosen to represent Phoenix in the Union High School district For the grammar school. Sims Ely, who has years on the board, is standing for re- election at the request of his friends, while E. T. Ceilings. also at the request of his friends. is stand ing for reelection for the trusteeship of the Union High School district.
 The present board of trustees for the district school of Phoenix is con- posed of Dr. Dameron. w. G. Tolleson and MT. Ely. The accord with which these three men have worked, al though they differ radically in poli- tics, has been answered by the splen- did condition of the present school system. Of the three. none has been more active than Sims Ely. He has given of his time and talent to the school for the love of the work In like manner he has endeared him self to the other members of the board by the display of sound busi- ness judgment and strong common sense. faculties for which he is well known.
 The schools of this district are now in process of transition. most inn portant epoch in their growth, and it is the desire of the other two di- rectors that the continuity of the work be not broken at this time, es- pecially desiring that MT Ely be re- elected, Dr. DameroR, in speaking of the matter yesterday, said:

 We come here with this repeal bill, .
 he said, with no apolgoy for our posi-
 tion For seventy-five years We have
 held out to the nations of the world the promise to build canal for all the world. We promised to build it as a
 great boon to humanity throughout the
 wide world and not for the small dol
 lars and cents added to our commerce. In this situation. the American nation
 does nothing out of the ordinary. Administration leaders vigorously sought tonight to keep their supporters in line and to obtain recruits. The op- position directed their efforts to pro-
 curing votes. to defeat the motion to close the debate on the rule, which will be made after an hours debate tomor- row, which if beaten, would allow the amendment of the rule. In this situa : tion the opponents of the bill would at tempt to open the Sims bill to amend ment and might secure adoption of a compromise amendment, repeating the tolls section, without surrendering the contention that the United States under the treaties has the right to grant free tolls
 For two hours the rule was alter nately defended and attacked in heated debates When adjournment came, with an hour of debate left for tomor- TOW, Speaker Clark. who had not yet
 announced his position on the repeal policy, issued statement vigorously opposing the rule
 Surely there is nothing so sacred about the repeal of the bill'' he said. ''as to warrant this mad rush I will
 not be party to ramming such rule down the throats of the members Impressed with the importance of the measure, an extraordinary attendance of members was on the floor. Throngs of spectators overflowed into the cor riders. At o'clock Henry, chairman of the Rules Committee, presented a rule limiting the debate on the Sims bill to twenty-four hours. precluding an amendment except for a single motion to recommit. The House was silent as
 Henry explained the rule and launched into defense of the repeal bill. Sen ator Clark's statement encouraged the opponents of the rule. Sims, author of | the repeal bill. issued a statement de- | lending the rule. Both sides displayed great activity throughout the evening
 preparing for a re-opening of, the
 struggle tomorrow.
 The Senates activity on the tolls question was limited to the introduc-
 tion of a resolution by Lewis, providing | that the amount and payment of tolls
 assessed equally upon the ships of al
 nations shall be regulated by the Sec
 retaries of War and the Treasury, witt

Have you heard about the biggest concrete dam in the United States Reclamation Service?
 It is located in New Mexico.
 It's estimated cost will be SS,O00,000.
 It will rise 300 feet above low water mark.
 It's bottom thickness will be 1S0 feet.
 Its total length, along the bottom, will be 250 feet
 It's total length, along the top, will be 1900 feet.
 It will rest upon the solid rock S5 feet below the bed of the river.
 It will pond 2.642,2 acre-feet Of water, each acre-foot being enough water to fill a space one foot deep over one acre of surface.
 It will form an artificial lake 45 miles long, covering an area of 10000 acres and constituting the largest ar tificial lake of the kind on the globe.
 It will be surpassed in it's dimen- sions by but one similar dam in the world, and that is the great concrete dam built by the British at Assouan in Egypt.
 It will water, eventually, a strip ranging from one to seven miles in width and extending more than 15O miles down the Rio Grande. It will reclaim and make to blossom as the rose no less than 1S0,000 acres or land.
 But the wonders of the project can be but faintly gleaned from the statements made. For it is a part of the governments plan that the users of the water made available for irrigation purposes by the big dam shall eventually own the dam itself, in fee simple.
 This mighty project is known as the Elephant Butte dam. The organ ization which is making it available to Mr. Common People and his fam ily is known as the Elephant Butte Water Users association. In their work. they are only bringing once more to pass, this time in a much more scientific and magnificent way however. what the ancient Pueblo In tlans had effected unknown centurie. before the first white man ever set foot in this section, nearly 400 years ago For when the first whites en- tered New Mexico in the year 1856 they found the Indians cultivatine fertile fields of chili and corn which they Watered by means of ditcheS and laterals conveying the waters ol the Rio Grande to their crops; anc singular as it may appear, the same levels along which the ancient Pue- bios laid their ditches are those which the modern engineers are proving to be the best adapted t' the purpose How did those ancient
