HANLON HEADING

a flash head of 10000 feet at Hanlon's
heading today with a probable rise to
10000 feet by tomorrow evening was re-
ported this morning from the river.
The rise is due TO some unusual rains
on the Arizona side of the river.
Some uneasinesS was caused this
morning at the report of the flash head
to come because of the fact that there
is 20O-foot break in the Ockerson
levce about quarter of mile below
where it is Joined by the C. d. levee
lnasmuch as $4,000 foot head recently
raised the river to a height where some
water passed through the break, some
apprehension is felt because of the pre-
dicted rise.
The break occurred when the river
rose to a peak load of 1900 feet more
than a month ago.
General Manager C. n. Perry is ex-
pected to close the breach at once

The lady never moved. Morris
thinking she was hard sleeper, an
nroached the bed and shook her
shoulder. The lady" Aopped over on
her back and at the Same time her
face slid out OF place. Morris was
dumbfounded. 1t was q dummy.
The demented man had evidently
spent considerable time IN manufac'
turing a wife to take the place OF the
one over in Russia. She was life sized
and carefully shaped TO lines which
correspended 70 Paurs ideal She was
stuffed with rags and had retired with
her street clothes OF, even sporting a
rather soiled corset.
Paul had taken no chances on firing
Of one dummy and having TO build new
ore. He met this enlergency By giving
her an intercban geable face. lie had
been saving cslanders and posters
which had life-sizsd faces OF women on
them. These faces he carefully cut out
and fastened over the phiz of his dunn
my. Occasionally he changed them TO
make himself believe he was a regular
lady killer.

benefit of PauTs lady. The bedstead
