TALK LAKES AND BOULEVARDS J'.ipcri from Onl of the City to llr Sccnrrd to Prepare the Plnti for Ilolnu the I.nnil arnplnR. The work of Improving the river front park, to bo known us Dodge lark. In honor of General Grenvlllo M. Podge. U to be commenced. This decision was reached at a special meeting of the park board yesterday afternoon. May 1 Is the date fixed for the boKlnnlng of activities. The first step tnken In Improving the park was to secure a working plan, avail able for uso from the beginning to the end of the work. Tor this purpose It wan decided to request the presence of a land scape artist from Minneapolis, a member of the firm of Morell fk Nichols, recom mended by Park Commissioner Theodore "Wlrth while he was here several month ago. Tho secretary was Instructed to write ahklng him to come here within the next few days and make a topographical map of tho park iwssesslons on the river front, outlining the main features of the development .scheme, with special rcfet ence to the boulevards and the lngo.ns and lakes to be made so that earth to be excavated for the artlflcal lakes can be used In the construction of the boule vard system. The second step was the decision to ad vertise for bids for tho earth work to bo done One set of bids calls for the con struction of a leveo along the Mayne tract west from tho Thirty-seventh street pumping statfnn for the purpose of pre senting overflows from the river. This will requlro 4,(luo yards of earth, and the bids must bo In by May 1. "While the primary purposo now Is tho construction otf a levee tho work will nlso become a part of the boulevard that will extend from tho 'Union Pacific bridge to Big Inke. Dirts have also been called for for tho handling of 40,000 yards of earth neceswiry for the construction of the boulevards, which must be built this year as the primary condition of the gift of forty acres by General Dodge and others. Title to this land cannot be se cured until this boulevard Is built. Hid for this work must bo received by June 1 and the construction must proceed con stantly until the work Is finished. Gcnernl Dodgq gave tho most desirable nna valuable portion of the new park upon the condition that a boulevard 100 feet wide should be constructed from the Union Pacific bridge to tho street railway bridge. Thla becomes tho starting point of the entire boulevard system that Is to eventually cost about 140,000. All of this work will be done In accord ance with the general plan to be prepared by the Minneapolis expert. His finished map will show the park just as It will appear when finished. It Is planned to have lakes and lugoon excavated to a depth that will Insure a constant staEe of water which will find Its way from the river through tho sand, and will leave all of its mud In the sand, making handsome bodies of pure water.

School Treasurer Is Now Poor Office Board Approves , Plans for School The Board of Education has approved the plans propared by Architect V. 12, Cox for tho now four-room addition to the Avenue B school building, and as soon as the specifications and blue prints can be made ready, bids will bo called for It will bo more than a year before the 115,000 of special taxes voted at the March school election will be available, but the board has decided to anticipate the money and go ahead with the build ing, getting It completed In tlmo for use at ihe beginning of the school year next September. This Is necessary on account of tho crowded condition of the school. There aro now nearly 100 pupils belonging to the district who cannot bo accommo dated, although half-day classes are be ing taught to accommodate the greatest number. Tho money will be securod from the local banks and carried as an overdraft until tho taxes arc paid nex year There will be an Interest chargo o 6 per cent on this oveidraft, approxlmat lug n total of nearly 00. but this will be met by the Interest that will hereaftor be paid by the banks on cash balances, nl of which formerly went to the school treasurer, A. 11.

' Thn law nr. .,.. ,. I ., I , ... I rylng It Into effect upon publication. Upon Its' face the notification does not appear to mean much either to Treasurer Davis or to tho public, but It Is In fact of considerable Interest to both. It cuts off from the treasurer all of tho Income that has heretofore made tho office of school treasurer worth seck'lng. The old law provided no com pensation for tho treasurer, but It has been the universal practice nil ovor the state for the school treasurers to receive interest from the banks upon nil cash balances. Thlr. has never amounted to less than $1,00) n year In Council Bluffs, and for the lant several years It has, exceeded $1.6i0 annually. The treasurer has had the power to designate the banks and this has made a bank fight at every school election. The new Inw provides for the designation of the banko and directs that the Interest shall bo paid to the school fund. Tho office of school treasurer has been one not hard to till, for Its duties hnvo been purely perfunctory and technical. All of the clerical work has been done by tho secretary of the school board nnd the banks Tho treasurer's duties principally consisted of attaching his signature to the annual financial reports prepared by the secre' tary. There will be no chango lu this proccduro under the new law, but ull f the emoluments of the office will go directly Into tho school fund. Within the next few days there will bo pa'd over by tho county treasurer the sum of MO.000, and as the school year Is about rady to close Interest will be paid on this until late In the nutumn, when another Installment nlmost ns Inrge will bo forthcoming. Tho Interest on these balances alone will approximate $1,100. The new law will divest the office of Its chlcfcst oharni, nnd tho biennial truggle for It will no longer bo n dls turblng element In local politics.

Ambassador Bryce Bids America Adieu Two Miners Buried By Mine Explosion Are Rescued Alive PITTSBURGH, April 26. Exhausted and almost unconscious, Charles Crawl and Philip Legler, miners, were rescued alive from tho Cincinnati mill's of the Monongu- hcla River Coal and Coke company at Flnlcyvlllo shortly after midnight this morning. They had been held prisoners in the underground workings since thu disastrous explosion In the mine at noon Wednesday. In which at least ninety-six men were killed. That tho two men survived tho explo sion and poisonous gases of tho mine for sixty hours Is considered miraculous. At tha hospital Crawl told of til a ex perience: "I entered the mine at 6:20 Wednesday morning. Legler and I were eating lunch In the room where we were found when shortly after 12:30 Wednesday afternoon we heard a dull explosion which seemed to be far away. I began to get nervous when I did not hear the other miners at work, and I went to Investigate. I found dead miners lying all around and then I knew how severe tho explosion had been. "Remembering my former experience, I told Legler to follow me and we crawled Into the workings In an effort to find a way out. I think we. had ben crawling fifty-two hours. In that time we had only a slice of bread aplec. and we quenched our thirst with sulphur water from the mine floor. We crawled and crawled and could not find any way out. I gave up any hope of ever getting out several times, but as long aa my strength lasted I pushed on. WASHINGTON. April X. Delegates at "Legler wanted to lie down and die, but tending the convention of tho Federation W4 poushed on.

They were alive, dui couia not in their honor by local organizations, -rne move. We tried to carry them, but their , seven general officers and eight directors weight wns too great and we' were ex- I of tho federation wero engaged in execil hauated. When we left the old man and I tlvo session throughout the evening dls hls son my mind seemed to wander, but j ctuslng plans for tho next biennial meet- I held to Lgler's hand and In some way Ing at Chicago in June, 1914. we got back to where we had started from after the explosion." i When Crawl was taken from the mine a message was found scribbled In chalk on the legs of his overalls. The message ners Is Mr. Bryan's own business," said TnUTJTJfl TTJAD Tfl rT?aWU Mrs. Thomas R. Marshall.

April 26. - Secretary Bryan Is not expected to spend more tluin a week nt Sacramento conferring with Governor .lohnson and the state leg islators over the proposed anu-allen land In us. In official clrcieB today It was BUggesleU that the energy with which Japan had protested against tho enactment of tho nendlm: alien Innd-holdlng legislation In California had served to obscure the fact that the many Chinese would be affected by such laws, though not in proportion to tho Japanese residents. The Chinese legation here, though not ing tho facts, has refrained from lodging nnv nrotest at the State department while awaiting instructions from Peking as well as the Issue of the negotiations between America ami Japan regarding tho nuestlon of alien land ownership. Treaty guarantees, It was pointed out, would probably gtvo the Japanese prop erty owners a decided advantage over tho Chinese in" protecting tholr rights In the event of discriminatory legislation. The number of Chinese In California is sold to be very much smaller than commonly suDDosed. Mr. Bryan declined to make any state ment In connctlon with the coming con ferences with Governor Johnson and the California legislature. "My mission," ho said in answer to a question, "as far as my memory goes, Is without precedent. We may create pre cedents In our conferences, but It would not do to speak of thorn In advance.

WOMEN'S CLUB DELEGATES SPEND DAY SIGHTSEEING Pair Jump from Gallery of Aj ,erj Tower, 180 Feet High CLIMB UP ABM IN ARK Every Done In Both Their Ludlpa Broken Spectators Faint an They Witness the Traced?. ANTWERP, Belgium, April 26. A youtl 18 years old and a l&-year-old girl wen the principal characters in a love tragedy enacted here today. Arm In arm they climbed to the clock gallery In .the tower of tha Notre Dame cathedral and from a height of ISO feet leaped Into space, fall ing at the feet of passersby. Every bone in the bodies of the boy and his companion was broken. As they hurtled through the air several men and women who witnessed the sight fainted. According to the police, the leap from the church tower was in accordance with a premeditated double suicide pact. Tho youth and the maiden had bought from the porter at tho entrance door tickets of admission to visit the tower, from which a wide view Is possible.
