J mile. that is to say, add this amount
to the theoretical gradient.
|, Velocity in tunnels should be about
\ 10 feet per second.
Velocity in lined canal should be
| about feet per second.
Tunnels, if of any considerable
| length. should be double and widely
separated. The short tunnel back OF
the quarry at Hanlon'S may, if the
character of material warrants, be
single barreled. -...-.
Use Present System Until Canal Dug
Until the main canal can be con-
structed around Pilot Knob and
through the sandhills, the canal wa
ter is to be delivered into the pres
ent Imperial canal below the Hanion
headgate. This delivery is to be
made through a power house located
to best advantage on the slope of p
lot Knob.
At the head of the canal, that is,
at Laguna dam, all works sould be
planned with vie VITO serving with
a dam crest 10 feet higher than
the present crest of the dam. The
desilting works should be of the same
type as those now in use and will be
an extension upstream of the pres
ent works. The desilting channel
should be deep and not too wide, prof.
ably about 500 feet wide at its head,
gradually decreasing in width to lis
present width at the sluice gates.
Headgate 12OG Feet Wide.
The headgate should be Of the flash
board type with total length of 1900
to 1900 feet.
Fo the interception and detention OF
Silt there should be two stretches Of
canal selected, one near the LagUna
dam. about a mile long, and one near
Hanlon's, about two milese long, where
the canal bed can be deepened and POS
sibly widened to some extent so as
to cause silt to be dropped by the ca
nal water in these stretches, where
its removal by dredging or by sluic'
ing through suitably located waste
gate will be possible.
At some convenient point above the
lockwood intake gate of the Imper-
ial canal, there should be a large
waste gate in the canal bank to aid
in sluicing the upper portion of the
canal and to discharge storm waters
when necessary. Other waste gates
should be located at convenient poiht'
intermediate between this gate ana
Laguna dam.
Storm Water Provision.
Storm waters are to be taken into
the main canal over barriers whiCh
will hold back the heavy material.
The enlargement of the Yuma canal
should be planned upon the and side
and the eXcavated material
should be so disposed of as to make
an embankment with broad top rising
at least feet above the proposed high !
water surface of the canal, thereby
making provision for storm waters.
Where the canal crosses sand
washes or is cut into gravel or coarse
sand deposits, it is to be lined with
concrete. Around Pilot Knob the
concrete-lined canal is to be preferreh
even at somewhat greater cost than
unlined canal, because there are so

Test Pits Necessary.

Through the sandhills test pits ma!
lie required on several lines. Son
will certainly be required on the route
. ready examined approximately fol
] wing the plank road. These pits
should be about one mile apart. More
! ay later be required. Mr.. Preston's
{ sggestion that the pits be eXcavated
I rough the surface material, particu-
larly where coarse material would in
tcrfere with boring and that from
the bottom of the dug pits the fur
ther exploration be made by dry bor-
Jag is approved.
Two Routes Investigated.
On the basis of the information now
at hand, supplemented by tapo-
rraphic survey along the international
! oundary. comparative estimate of
lantities should be made for a ca
al through the sandhills. The route
; oproximating the location of the
: lank road should be compared in
; lis respect with that along the
,undary.
Mr.. Preston reported to the board
! lat he was assembling the map Data
esulting from earlier surveys and
' as. supplementing and checking the
ame by plane table and transit sur
' ays. This work has made fair pro-
ress. Preparations for sinking test
, it's are under way. Mr.. Preston re-
ported that all work was being pushed
forward as rapidly as possible.

: Now, that Capt Orri C.. Hall is
about to leave st. Paul and, indeed,
the United States, on mission of
work, patriotism and mercy which is
backed by the government it seems
the right thing to do if the people
of St. Paul will signify their ap-
prevail of the man and the job by CIV
ing in Mr.. Halls honor the one and
only thing a public benefactor (such
as Mr.. Hall has long been) would ex-
pect and appreciate-a public demon
stration and testimonial.
But who shall start the movement?
Who can say in which quarter of the
city in which religious, fraternal or
social organization Mr.. Hall is best
known and most liked?
He is known, respected and loved
by the entire city, except by the few
people or places that shun universal
helper.
The hint is this: Why not a central
committee organize a general COM
mittee and extend thereby to every
corner of St. Paul an invitation to
