Rumor says excavation machinery for the lower dam will arrive and begin work soon but Topeka backers question its truth. Work proceeds haphazardly with seven teams and wheel scrapers, yet little to show for spending thousands. If funds and machinery fail, excavation stalls could drag on endlessly. A rheumatism cure by Professor Munron promises safe, rapid relief from muscular and chronic pains, claiming complete cures in days. A group of seven or more girls boarded the Orphans Home car, tore through the interior, and hid items under cloaks before stopping and removing some belongings.
