tidal BASIN BATHS
Will SOON CLOSE
Popularity of Season Causes Place
to Remain Open Late.

Recent cold weather has caused a
decrease in the size of bathing crowds
at the Tidal Basin. While the water
remains warm, the sudden drop in
temperature during the past week has
frightened the bathers away, accord
ing to statement made by Mr.. Wells.
the proprietor Of the bath house yes
terday. There is still some bathing,
but very little compared to that OF
the hot days of last summer, and
preparations are being made TO close
the place as soon as the weather be-
comes too cold to be conducive to
water sports.
Mr. Wells said yesterday that the
basin has been very popular during
the summer, at times the crowds being
larger than could be accommodated.
In fact" he said, the place has
increased in popularity steadily each
year for the past four years"
Mr.. Wells takes particular pride in
the fact that during the four years
he has been proprietor Of the place,
there have been only three deaths in
the basin. Two OF these were caused
from heart failure, and one from
drowning. according to him. Il con-
slider that remarkable. he said. when
you take into consideration the thou

.PLANKING OF BRIDGE
IS STILL IN DOUBT
Southern Pacific Officials
Have Not Consented to
Plan. But May

A telegram was received this morn
ing from the higher up officials of the
Southern Pacific at San Francisco that
the matter of planking the bridge was
under consideration, but nothing def
mite had been decided. Until instruc-
tions are received by the Portland Of
iefials from the general manager at
San Francisco, the bridge proposition
and the planking are still a matter of
speculation.
The state highway commission will
submit to the county court next We'd
nesday its estimates of costs and main
tenance of different types of bridges,
both steel and concrete, and high OF
low level. The government requires a
distance of 65 feet between the bridge
and the low water. The low level
bridge would require draw and ex'
pense of operation while this of course
would not be necessary should the
high bridge type be selected. 1t is
estimated the bridge will cost about
$250,000, one-third of the cost to be
paid by Polk county.
Since the cost of steel has advanced
and the delays in securing steel have
become known, there is general sen
timent towards the cement bridge
Polk county has always been in favor
of a cement bridge, as expressed in
resolution at meeting of county roao
men October 28 of last year.
Anyhow, as soon as the highway de
partment submits its designs and esti
mated costs, it is more than probable
that the two county courts will gel
busy. In the meantime, the plankine
of the Southern Pacific bridge is W
in the air. Should the officials final
! " consent, the next proposition fol-
immediate action is to decide who vii
pay for the $4,000 to $4,000 expense
of planking.

Oregon Butter Men

Portland, Ore, Jan. 13.-A call for a
