PROJECT ALIVE Committee Decides to Seotire Senicet of in Experienced Cmpirner. CONFIDENT OF RAISING THI FUNDS fifty Thousand Dollars the tniiinl Derided I pou as Necessary for Krectlon and Ksjalpment of a ultable RalldtHg. "That e are tu have a Young Men's Christian association building In Council Bluffs bun been definitely decided and now the only question for us to determine is wlien are we to g"t It?" declared KVank C. Hiker last night at the meeting of the committee having In charge the Young Alen'e Christian association project. The confidence felt by Mr. Rlker that the project would be ultimately brought to a successful Issue aas apparently shuied by the other members of the committee. The meellng last night was to consider the advlsahllltyX of securing some well known Young Men's Christian association worker from outside to take charge of the, campaign for funds. Some favored having the campaign conducted by a local man, such as Mr. Hiker, who froiu the start has been the prime mover In the project to establish an association in this city with Its own building. Mr. Riker, however, de clined to take charge of the campaign, al though he freely offered hiB service to work with some "campaigner" of repute from outside. It was decidVfl that a man from outside be secured and that an active campaign for funds be commenced as soon as such a mun can be obtained. Chair man Smith was Instructed to appoint a committee of five, which will from this on take active charge of the project. This committee Mr. Smith expects to name to day. F. J. Day slated that in his opinion, when the campaign is really begun In ear nest on a systematic plan, there would be little difficulty In raising the required amount, which aa a starter has been placed at JoO.ooo. He figured out for the commit tee that $J7,3iO could be raised In the city as follows:: Five 11.000 donations. $5,C00; twenty WQ donations, 110,000; thirty t-'IWl do nations, tT.SOO; 100 $100 donations, $10.(100; In smaller sums, $o,0ou. Frank Rlker and Robert Wallace said they would raise $10,000 If the committee would raise t he balance. From their re marks It was Inferred they had strong hopes of securing that sum, or at least $0,100, from one certain party. The committee of five to be appointed by Chairman Smith is , tQ,f at( An,c.er.ejiter Into negotiations with some well Rrlown Young Men's Christian association "funds raiser," but It Is not likely that the active campaign will be begun until about August. The committee, however, has no Intention of lotting the matter go by default or in terest in the project to flag. It has decided that a Young Men's Christian association Is a necessary Institution In Council Bluffs and It Is determined that there shall be one and that.lt shall be suitably housed in a building of its own. It was suggested also last night that some assistance might be obtained from the several railroads centering In .Council Bluffs and the committee will at once enter Into communication with the officials of these railroads. BIG DRCDVG A WHIT 10 EI.KI'HAKT Council Cannot Final Money lo Care for the Machine-. - That the big Indian creek dredge is fast becoming a white elephant on the hands of the city is the opinion expressed by several of the councilmen. Since last fall it liaa been anchored in the creek & little way south of the city limits. It stood the rav ages of winter well and failed to drag its anchor during the heavy rains. It is feared, however, that If Indian creek should SO on one of Its genuine old-time rampages the dredge would be carried down to the river, where It would probably go to the bottom or become marooned on a sand bar. The consensus of opinion among the coun cilmen and oilier municipal officials Is that the "Eleanor Gilbert." aa the dredge is best known, should be placed on dry land until such time as it might be needed to again clean out the creek between Sixth avenue and the Missouri river. Last fall one firm offered to raise the dredge from the creek onto dry land for $500. but the city council decided it couldn't spare the money. Now the lowest bid for ths same Job Is $600 and the councilmen are at a loss to figure Where the money can be obtained, as no appro priation for it was made at the commence ment of this fiscal year. The dredge cost HoCO, but the members of the late council assert It had paid for itself before It was put out of commission. It bas been practically Impossible to use the big machine on the present work on Indian creek, owing to the number of bridges to be encountered between Sixteenth avenue and Eighth street. The dredge. It la said, la not of sufficient capacity for use on the Pottawattamie-Harrison county drainage ditches or on the Pigeon creek ditch, other wise the councilmen would favor trying to sell It to one of the, contractors on the big ditches. Some are ready to prophesy that the dredge will ultimately follow the ex ample of former Councilman L. A. Casper's big street sweeper and become relegated to the municipal Junk pile of graders, street sweepers, pile drivers and other expensive machinery.

Fit, attached to the gunboat Pampanga, who was serving on tlio expedition of tne I'nlted Htates troops during the action on Mount Uajo, Jolo, P. 1., on March , 190. I'pon the occasion In question the troops of Captain Lawson's column, with which Sea man Fits was serving, were advanrlng to assault the last remaining cotta, altuated on the north side of the hill. Tbe advance guard of the troops had reached a point very near the parapet of this cotta, ' but were unable to command the interior. Sea man Fits conceived the Idea of climbing a large tree about forty feet from the cotta, and firing Into It with his pistol. He remained in t lie tree about ten minutes and while there was the sole target for the Mortwt inside ttie cotta. Although sub ject to this severe fire from all sorts ot firearms and other missile weapons, the man coolly remained ln the tree, holding on the best he might, firing his pistol rap idly and undoubtedly doing great execu tion. He finally came down and partici pated ln the assault that carried the trench. I was an eye witness to the above events and submit this account for any action the department may desire to take." Mayor General Leonard Wood, V. B. A., forwarded the altove report to the commander-in-chief.

He volunteered for thla service, and. although under fire from th Moroa In the fort, he acted with great coolness. Hanging on with one hand he used the other lo fire Into the trenches. When the revolver was empty he dropped It to th ground and caught another loaded one that waa thrown to him. His fire undoubtedly did great rxecutlon and was probably the cause of the position being captured with out loss of life to our forces." TRl'MAN H. NKWBERRV.
