STRENGTHENED STREAMS AND
bitches GIVE FLOATING
ICE CLEAR SWEEP.
MANY BRIDGES LOST
ON LARGE. SYSTEMS
Ice Found to Cause More Damage
When it Has Straight Course Than
on Crooked MISUNDERSTANDING
Supervisors Inclined to Go Slow on
Work Of Strengthening Streams.

| Council Bluffs, Feb. EFF the
county had all it's streams ditchcd
straight, the breakup Of ice this spring
! would have entailed an expense Of
$1,CG0,0c0 to replace the bridges swept
out by the Ice says Supervisor Robert
Harding, who came to Council Bluffs
Monday morliirG to attend the meeting
of the board o. supervisors which con-
vened at 1850 p M. to take up the
question of the proposed Strengthening
of Silver creek.
I'VE did not lose a bridge on the
streams which have been undisturbed
BY ditching,' Mir. Harding said. He was
prevented attending the former meet
ing called for hearing on the Silver
creek project, being detained by the
necessity of fighting ice in the bitches
of his district, where several bridges
were swept away in spite Of the COM
bined efforts OF supervisors and resi-
cents
The miles of straight sweep open for
&3e, with no chance of check except at
he bridges, makes the danger of ice
orges greater in the bitches. whereas
n the streams that still are as nature
ade them, the bends catch the ice and
prevent serious gorges, the supervisor
avs. and he eAlressed his growing
conviction that the-T:sh 70 Strengthen
he streams OF the county is not good
move.
Several Bridges Lost.
Supervisor Harding lost several
ridges in spite of dynamiting the
gorges, and other supervisors have ex-
oerenced the same difficulties. The
,treams that have not been straight
ned. seemed to care for themselves,
5ut it was strictly up to the authorities
20 look after he bitches. There the ice
lrove at speed for miles to pile up
against the piers and abutments of
ridges where it called for almost su-
perhuman efforts on the part of the
county eE gineer and supervisors to pre-
vent the jams carrying away the struc-
.ureS
Along the Nishnabotna drainage
iitch, the Boyer and other bitches the
oss OF bridges during the two weeks
ust past amounted to more than $15,-
90 and the total loss in the county for
ne spring breakup will probably reach
$1,000 This extraordinary expense for
2placing the damaged structures will
prevent some much-needed new work
this season.
The craze for drainage, which has
carried the counties into many projects
even against the protests Of property
owners in some places, seems to have
been succeeded by more sober atti-
tude. in which the disadvantages Of in
discriminate ditching appear to have
come up for consideration as well as
the advantages, which consist largely
IN retaining bottom land"

Joseph lombarde Punished For Flop.
ing With 12-Year- Old Miss.
Fort Dodge. Feb. 29.-Joseph Lom-
harde was sentenced to not more than
five and not less than three years in
the eastern state prison Of Pennsylva-
MIA, Saturday, when he had his tria!
in Philadelphia. The charge against
him was rape.
Lombarde enticed Seconda Sempirini
from her home in Lehigh. the girl be-
ing only IL years old. The Philadelphia
police wrote to the sheriff's office here
that they had the girl in the matron's
ward. The sheriff advised them to
arrest Lombarde, which was done. In
stead Of getting out requisition papers,
which had been planned, the local au-
thorities will wait unail Lombarde
serves out his time in the eastern
state before bringing charges here
against the man.
Yesterday money for a ticket was
wired to the police matron of Philadel-
phia and the girl will be sent home to
her mother. Mrs. Sempirini said that
she wanted the girl to come back home
and return to school. She denied that
her daughter had been beaten and mis-
treated.
Mrs. Viola Walsh was first discov-
cred by the Y. w. c. A. workers. where
she went in hopes of securing work
A position was found for her and she
returned to secure her suitcase. The
man, Frank Brown, with whom the
woman was found, refused to give it to
her. He called at the association build
ing and explained that the woman
could not accept the position. The Sec
rotary became suspicious and notified

whereabouts Of the couple, and thus
The true story was revealed.
