Black Mud Garden Cause of Comment An estimated six ton of garden stuff grown at one time on less than a quartwr of an acre of black mud. Is the record of Howard Church, whose black mud garden may be viewed at his home In North Rose burg on Commercial avenue. Mr. Church has raised almost every vege table known, and the majority of them are far above average size and excellency. 8ome are so large that they are object of curiosity. A dis play of the garden stuff raised by Mr. Church Is being arranged at the Lawrence and Cordon company, and this display Includes squash, beets, peppers, carrotts, popcorn, onions, pumpkins, quinces, egg plant, chard, gourds, and other. These were grown on black mud, the despised land of which everyone who buys endeavors to shun, and this crop will probably go on record as having much to do with the forming of a new respect for this kind of land.

Structure to Run Under Hud son River Between N.Y. and Jersey City. BE COMPLETED IN 1924 tour Irive)s Two In Kach Direc tion, WIU be Provided for Ve hiclrit Contortion on Fer ik't to be Helleved. Br Asorlnte4 Preaa. NEW YOUK, Ocl. 12. Construc tion of a vehicular tunnel under the Hudson river between New York and New Jersey starts today with the breaking of ground for one of the tube's big airahafu. Stute, county and municipal officer from both states have been Invited to partici pate in the ceremonies In Manhattan this afternoon. Engineers expect to complete the structure by 1924. The cost, esti mated at $29,000,000, Is to be borne equally by the two states. Shore works, inch. ding shafts and ap proaches, will require 18 months to construct, after which actual work of boring under the river will begin. Continued congestion at the fer ries between New York and New Jer sey prompts the belief of tunnel en gineers that 6,600,000 motor and horse-drawn conveyances will use (he tube in 1924, with traffic show ing a steady Increase, reaching an innual figure of 22,000.000 vehicles by 1943. Tolls based on the ferry rates will be levied for 20 years to my for the tube, and then it would be free for the use of all. Four driveways, two In each dlrec 'ion, will be provided. A sidewalk two feet in width also Is planned. The tunnel, comprising two cast-iron tubes each with an external diameter of 29 feet, will be six feet wider than the Pennsylvania railroad tubes un der the Hudson East rivers. Traffic blockades, now common on ferries, would be precluded by pro viding at each end of the tube derrick-equipped trucks to take stalled automobiles in tow. Three driveways In each direction will bo furnished on '.he approaches, because slight in clines there are expected to slow down the movement of the vehicular queues. Ventilation to rid the tunnel of 'nrbon monoxide pases from automo bile exhausts will be furnished by four large shafts and also by an air 1uct under the roadway and an ex hause above. Smoky vehicles circu late poisonous gas freely In closod places, but chemists working on the tunnel ventilation system estimate that at the highest point of satura tion there will be only 3 parts of "arbon monoxide to 10,000 parts of air in the tubn. It requires 8 parts f gas to 10.000 parts of air. they figured, to give a man a headache.

The end of bolshevism in Russia Is believed by the state department to be near enough to begin considering what will follow the soviet rule.

If bolshevism falls Oeneral Wrangel may be called upon to orfsnii a a jovarnrntnt. An agreement whereby the city and county will act co-operatively In the construction of the Vmpqua bridge, which Is to replace the old Alexander bridge, was reached last night and the llrsl step towards the construction of that much desired structure has been taken. For severai months the county court has insisted taat the city pay fifty per cent of the construction ol the bridge, holding that both the city and the county would be benefitted equally. The city agreed to pay only $0000, and later raised this amount to $7 GOO. However, the court main tained that 115,000 would not be sufficient to build the bridge and held forth on the fifty-fifty basis. Mayor Hamilton has been working on the proposition for some time and at a special meeting of the county court reached an agreement whereby the court was willing to accept a 60 40 proposition, the county taking the SO and the city the 40 per cent. As (he city valuation is approximately jne-ulnth of that of the entire coun ty, the city's share in the county tax would bring Its co-operation to al .no 60 per cent. On this basis the court agreed to proceed with the con struction of the bridge at once and Mayor Hamilton called a special meeting of the council last night to make a report. He stated the agreement he had reached with the court and asked the council whether or not the plan was suitable. After considerable discus sion the council agreed to co-operate with the county on the proposed basis and it Is urged that the court proceed with construction at the earliest possible dare. The plun provides for a covered bridge with window openings built on the site of the former bridge uud if such type of construction as will itand heavy traffic. In the event the county cannot obtain suitable bids the work Is to be done by force ac count under the direction of the county roadmaster. The resolution adopted by the council provides for the construction of the bridge on a 60-40 basis and states that the bridge Is to be 16 feet wide and of the covered type. Aside from the provision for con struction by force account in the event of failure to procure a suitable bid, (he reservation Is made that the bride Is only to be built upon the transferring of the lund which has been set aside as a city park. Mr. Evans has presented the city with a deed for the land which ho owns, and the matter Is now contingent upon the furnishing of a deed by the Portland banking firm which own the remaining property. This Port land company has agreed in wrltine to furnish a deed and as soon as this instrument Is placed In escrow in local bank the city will be ready to proceed. There Is also a small tract In the center of the proposed park owned by C. A. Brand. The council agroed last night to endeavor to reach a set tlement with Mr. Brand for the pur chase of this property and In the event a wiitable agreement could not be reached, to proceed by condemna tion after the remaining land had been secured. Several months ago the county court asked the state engineering de partment to prepare plans for th construction of the proposed bridge, and It was supposed that the engi neers were doing this work. It was learned late yesterday that the planr being prepared by the slate call for a bridge across to the Lindsay prop erty from the old brickyard, a place where It would be expensive to ac quire right of way and where no bridge Is wanted. Why the state should ever want to build a bridge at that point can not be stated, but such were the plans being prepared. These will not be accepted by either the court or the rlty, for the new bridge will be built on .he Bite of the former structure. It Is proposed to bring the false work and materials now being used for th repair of the Pruner bridge, near Riddle, to Roseburg and use them for the construction of the I'mpqua bridge. This would greatly reduce the cost of construction and would hasten the completion of the bridge. The piers now standing will be reinforced and strengthened and a nv central pier will be built. These It Is believed, will be capable of carrying the heavlit traffic and will greatly reduce costs. It Is hoped that the work can be started at one and that the bridge aa be worked on during the winter months. Mayor Hamilton met with the county court yesterday and . spent some time with them again today dis cussing the proposed improvement, which meets with general satisfac tion throughout the entire city. The park which the city will pro cure as a result of this action in cludes all of the beautiful timbered section lying along the riven bank. Mr. Hamilton and Mr. Evans viewed the property yesterday and marked out its bouudurles. The city s reso lution will be held up until such u lime as a deed is prepared by the Porttund fir in, but as soon as that document is received here the city will stand ready to furnish its share of the cost. Tho park will be known as the ICvun park, according to the city resolution, and the deed submitted by the owner- provides that the city ihall have complete possession as long as the land shall be used for public purposes, ln the event the city abandons the land it reverts to its former owners. Councilman Nichols objected to this provision. but the remainder of the council ex pressed themselves as being desirous f such a clauses which would pre vent any future action which might result in an abandonment of what Is m of the most beautiful park Biles f the state. In preparing the deed for tho park ;and Mr. Kviins has extended the amount he origiuully promised and has given more lund which can be used fur picnic purposes. This ad dition was made volunlurily and was not at the request of the city but was gratefully received. The resolution adopted by the council Is as follows: Be It resolved by the common council of the city of Roseburg: 1. That the city of Koseburg and Douglas county rebuild the Alexan der bridge, siild bridge to be sixteen eet in the clear, covered, with side windows, painted and of sufficient strength for heavy traffic; 2. That the city of Roseburg pays forty per cent of reconstruction and Douglas county pays sixty per cent (hereof; 3. That said construction be done by day labor under the supervision tl County Roadmaster Freur, pro viding the county cannot get a reas onable bid on the work: 4. That said bridge be built at the site of the former Alexander bridge, using as much of the old material as practicable; 5. That the proposed tract of land to be deeded by 8. D, Kvans as a park be accepted, and that the said tract be named, designated and known us Kvana Park; 6. The above is contlLgeut upon obtaining a deed for the lots on the west side of t'mpqua avenue, owned by the United Stales National bank, of Portland, Oregon. Adopted by the common council at a meeting held Oct. 11, 1920. W. S. HAMILTON, Mayor. At a meeting wilh the county court this morning, the resolution was accepted and an order made instructing the engineer to prepare plans and proceed with the construc tion of the bridge. o Music Club Meets This Evening The opening meeting of the Rose burs; Music Club will take place to night and all former members and many new ones are looking forward to the event with much InlereHt.
