METHODIST PASTOR
 BOUTS KU KLUXERS
Brisk ScrimmaSe Occurs at Pitts
 blrsh Church Service

Pittsburgh, April 2.-Sixteen hood. ed Ku Klux Klansmen appeared in the Bellevue Methodist Episcopal church during Easter services yester- day morning.
 Before the klansmen could start their march toward the pulpit they were put to rout, and in an exciting scrimmage outside the church several lost part of their regalia. Steps were taken yesterday afternoon by Attorney Elmer l.. Kidney, a mem- Der of the official board of the church, looking to prosecution of the klansmen.
 Feeling over the incident is in- tense and it was said last night that even in the Bellevue church there is division of sentiment regarding the treatment accorded the visitors. There is unanimity, however, that the pas tor of the church. the Rev. R. B. Urmy, handled the situation with de- cision and tact.
 Told to Unin.ssk or Go.
 The church, one of the largest in the Pittsburgh conference, was crowded for the Easter service. Bap- tism had just been administered to several candidates .nd the organist, D. M. Phillips, was playing the offer tory when six figures in white en- tered the west and cast doors of the auditorium. Almost before their presence was noted they had formed groups at the rear of the aisles.
 They were standing thus, appar- ently waiting for a signal from their leader, when MT. Kidney. passing a collection plate, stopped and ordered them to leave.
 T shall have to ask you to retire." agreed Dr. Urmy. You are disturb ing the services here, which is a violation of the. law. You will be perfectly welcome to remain if you remove your disguises. Otherwise you must go."
 The klansnen hesitated a moment, then moved toward exits. MT. Kid ney, followed. Seizing one of the wis., itors, said: You are under arrest"
 Loses Part of Regalia.
 The klansman broke from the law yer's grasp, losing part of his robe. The group at the rear of the other aisle, where w. R. Murphy was taking the offering, rushed to the street,

warrant the procedure, Starting with the Idea that the dam will he unusually thick for its height for the reason just mentioned 1t is possible 10 dispose of the extra material in Q way that will facilitate raising the dam to still greater height, If that should be advantageous in the future: and in designing the dam these matters should be kept in mind,
 Before working out the plan of the dam to be used, more information is needed about materials available for dam building in the neighborhood and about the materials underneath.
 For the purpose of estimate, have used a sketch of section which seemed to meet these requirements, and which Is large enough so that there can be no question as to it's stability.
 While the dam must he made thick for it's strength, its top need be carried but a few feet above the pro- posed flow line as there !s no catch ment area to produce flood flows and the height of water in the reservoir will be subject to absolute control"
