J. an Omaha bridge man, called on tne county commissioners yesterday and secured plans and specifications for bridges 'to be, built under contract soon to be let He discussed the blrdge building situation with the commissioners. Mr. BIrss said the price of lumber Is about $5 below the high water mark of last year, but that It Its at about the same level at this time that Is was one year -ago. One Improvement In the lumber situation is prompt delivery of erders.

which- will enable bridge builders to secure greater economy in their work; It will not be necessary to keeu expensive gangs ot men idle while waUng on material and work can be cleared away as the men proceed. Mr. Birss said the outlook from a bridge builder's standpoint Is not at all discouraging, Prompt delivery Jsa more marked feature of the bridge steel trade. Recently Mr. Birss' placed an order for tyenty tons of steel and had It prom- ised in weeks.

The steL. corporation also quoted delivery at a California, point ia forty-Ave days. There Is a reduction' in the price of bridge steel, Mr. Birss avers, but It Is very Blight have more business on our books at this time," said Mr. Birss, "than we had one year ago.

One reason tor this is that counties are letting their contracts earlier. So far as we can tell at this time, there will be no less bridge building done on county contracts than last year."

CHITTEHDBTTS I-ECTTRH THE TEMPLE LAJT KIGHT. AT Stgrma XI Aaamal Baaeaet Meeting Aa Address oa Kx- 1 perlmenta In Dieting. The Sigma XI held its annual meet-: ing and banquet last night The banquet was held at the Lincoln hotel and the meeting at the temple building at Twelfth and streets. The meeting was addressed by Dr. H.

R. Chltten den of Yale university on the subject of nutrition in the ordinary proteid Affair slwsd the greater-part being -made -up of-members of Sigma XI at the university, listened to the lecture. Dr. Chittenden; was Introduced to the audience by Dr. A.

L. Candy of the mathematics department at the The first part of his' lecture was in explanation of a score or more of -lantern slides that were thrown on the screep. The slides showed results of experiments which Dr. Chittenden has been making for several years. These experiments have cost thousands of dollars and a 'great deal of painstaking effort.

He emphasized the need of a mixed diet It should not be exclusively meat nor exclusively vegetable, although he said there were combinations of the latter that would be capable of nourishing a person successfully. He got these results In part from an experiment he made on soldiers in the army. Before he began to change their diet they were eating meat three times a day, taking into the body 160 grams of protein food, of which Jt was shown that only about fifty grams were used. He threw pictures on the screen of several of his men after the experiment was over, and although the soldiers had. been characterized as "Chittenden's Salvation Army," yet their appearance was sufficient evidence' of their healthy physical condition.

He tried the experiment on several athfetes in his university and succeeded in reducing their bread and meat diet to about one-half within five months with the result' that their muscular efficiency was greatly Increased and their health improved. His experiments were not confined to human beings, however. He tried the same thing on thirty dogs and found that their condition physically was much lmprovedwhere the- meat diet and the high proteid supply was ...0.. wvava srviftjr rya greatly cut down. All these exnen inrnis go 10 snow, no said, that a man of 150 or 180 pounds need nof 120 grams of protelds a day, as formerly' and as the greater number of people practice, but only about fifty or sixty grams.

At this point he went on with his lecture without the slides and merely amplified the statements he had made in the first part of his lecture with the emphasis on the fact that people could get along better and with less waste to the organa of the body If less food was taken into the body and It the greater part of ltwas taken ln at the end of. the day's activity, than at the beginning, for -the nutrition that the body uses Is not that which he take Into his body Just before the work be gins but that which he took the day before. When the man eats less of the aiet. lie must start moderately. He will have to punr back his plate at first before his appetite is quite satisfied until the habit is formed of eating In smaller amounts.

He said that some peoples' stomachs are so distended by heavy eating that nothing short of complete tilling will satisfy the hunger. This systehi would serve to rest the organs and conserve the largest amount of energy to the use for whtfh It was originally Intended. As a pn of working out this idea a per- son should eat a light breakfast and a light lunch In neither of whloh should there be any meat For dinner he should eat only one slice of meat and some potatoes with fresh vegetables. He even suggested that one of the light meals might be dispensed with entirely. This he said will bring about the greatest amount of muscular and mental energy and will serve to make a man of the greatest efficiency 1 whatever line he Is interested.

Just before the address, a banquet was served at the hotel. There were thirty-seven present, nearly all of whom were members "of the Sigma XI society.
