 In a telephone communication with Hanlon heading this morning it was stated that the dredger was not dam aged and that it would be pulled out of the trestle within short time work in that direction having already begun.
 When asked as to what effect the break in the dam would have on the flow of water through the Hanlon head-gates, it was stated that at this time it was impossible to tell, but that it was hoped all the damage

 Every army insists, in it's enlist ments, on obtaining men above the average in physical efficiency. Its ideal is the red-blooded man with dash and daring, bit of an adventurer to
 begin with, to be reduced to a cog in a great machine by the pressure of military discipline. In general, those who fight best are most likely to be killed.
 " The bravest men, says Darwin, who were always willing to come to the front in war, and who freely risked their lives for others, would on an average perish in greater numbers than other men, Better men would make better history. The demands of battle and camp cut off men from parenthood in the prime of life. This leaves the men war can not use to be the fathers of coming generations.
 By the laws of heredity, like the seed is the harvest and the future of the races rests with those who are it's actual ancestors. Lions breed lions,' says the Spanish proverb, a brave man has brave sons.' Of like import is the Moorish proverb "The father weed; the mother a weed Do you expect the daughter to be saffron root?'

David Star Jordan TheorizeS on War

SAN DIEGO, Aug. 11.- Future generations of Eu- rOpean countries now at war with each other not only will have to pay the costs of that war in material wealth, but also in the lowered standards of their physical, mental and moral efficiency, according to Dr. David Starr Jordan, Chancellor Emeritus, Leland Stanford, IT,, University, who today addressed the members of the Pacific Divi- sion of the American Asso- citation for the Advancement of Science, on 'War and Eu- genics."
 He concludes that war weakens the breed by deDriv- ing it of it's finest strain is now an unquestioned fact in biology as in history"

It is unnecessary to say that MT. Gleen Wheeler's friends are surprised at his actions, for every subscriber to the fund, which went to purchase the exhibit jars, was told the jars were to serve Yuma county for all time to come. However, the fair directors will see what can be done to gain possession of these much needed jars.

The tailored suit is always one of the first needs to be felt at any change of seasons. This one is exceedingly smart. Here, it is made from a checked gabardine but it can of course, be used for any seasonable material. The collar of the coat may be finished as it is here, or joined to the coat for it's entire length and worn either high or rolled over with the fronts. The skirt consists of two pieces with an inverted plait at each side seam. 1t may be made with or without the ornamental pockets in- serted under the trimming portions. The side portions of the coat are dis tinctly novel and give exceedingly be- coming lines. They are cut in sec tions and the cutting is done on curved lines which gives an unusual effect and exceedingly graceful lines. Plain gabardine with collar and revers of poplin would make smart suit or plain broadcloth would be handsome treated in the same way. Checked suitings are pretty, with plain color as trimming. When the trimming straps which conceal tine pockets are used on the skirt, they can be lined with contrasting material to give good effect. Often this lining affords an almost brilliant contrast as gold color with brown, mustard color with dark blue. A pretty fancy is to make the blouse to accoS,pany the suit ot color and material so match this lining. Such treatment gives complete costume.
 For the medium size the coat will require, 21s yards of material 36 inches wide, 2H yards A or yards 54. For the skirt will be. needed, 4 yards of material 36 inches wide, 313 yards A or PA yards 54. The width at the lower edge is 5 yards and "A inches.
