Within the next ten days it is expected
that the 300 nisuuted Johnsown claims
will he adjusted and then the work of
the Commission will end. Francis B.
Reeves has just returned to Philadelphia
from the Conemaugh Valley, where lie
met the Pittsburg members OF thr Conn
mission. When its work is completed,
Mr.. Reeves says the Commission will
have disbursed 81 500, 900 in an effort to
resuscitate the people Of the stricken val
ley, and will still have 800, coo on hand
This money is to be deposited with some
Philadelphia trust company, yet to be Sc
lected, as an annuity fund 1t will ena-
able every child who was made mn orphan
by the food to receive, an annuity of $50
year until it reaches the age of sixteen
years, and this will probably be the most

Bank. Considerable extra work is en-
tailed by the cashing of the Relief Com

a Gigantic Reservoir.
II U19' 9''11EEN tNNHNE ' VH1
paciiic Lumberman.


The present dam of the Bear Valley
Reservoir Company in San Bernardino
was constructed in 1885, and is so feet
high, 16 feet thick at the base, feet at
the capstone, aud 300 feet in length 1t
is built into the bed rock at the bottom of
the Bear Creek Canyon, and abutted into
the solid rock on either side. The body
of water confined by this dam covers
1865 acres to an average depth of 16 feet,
and contains 10000, 1000, 900 gallons. The
engineer of the company, Mr.. Frank e.
Brown, is now in the east, but upon his
return active steps will be commenced to
construct new and larger dam, the
work upon which will be begun early
next spring. The new dam will be To-
Gated about 100 feet below the present
one, so that the water will be confined
by a double dam. 1t will be built into
the bed rock, and be 100 feet In height
The width of its base will be "a feet and
its length $50 feet. The capacity of the
reservoir will be increased nearly twenty
fold, and will include body OF water 10
miles in length, miles in width, with an
average depth of 40 feet, The present
dam with its canals cost $165,O00 The
cost of the new one has not been esti-
mated yet, but will probably reach nearly
three-quarters of a million, and will store
water sufficient to insure irrigating water
for 100, 900 acres of land for three years.
Professor Davidson recently made a
thorough examination of the watershed
and catchment area Of the reservoir site,
and also examined the dam site, and in
dorsed very highly the feasibility of the
new enterprise, stating that he never saw
equal facilities for storing so vast body
of water at the same cost.
The Bear Valley reservoir is at present
the largest irrigation reservoir in the
United States, and the proposed increase
in its capacity will make it the largest of
any kind.

The body, or skeleton, found hanging
in the woods south of Findlay, ONO, was
NJ Monday morning identified by the cloth
il a that of Jesse Walters, man who
d sappeared suddenly and mysleriously
about the middle Of last June, and was
supposed to have gone to Johnstown, Pa.
The evidence is that he committed suicide
all his body has been hanging for about
five months. Walters was about forty
seven years of age, was bachelor, and
his unnatural act was due to his inability
to get work as steadily as he would like
tc have it. Walters was leading mem
bor of the Salvation Army there. The
coroner took charge of the remains and
held an inquest, resulting in developing
these facts.

pied by Mr.. Caleb Gray, brother of ex-

lage of Hastings, Elder township, was
burned with all its contents, about one
o'clock Saturday morning. The inmates

badly injured by jumping from an upper
story window. One OF the daughters,
Edith, aged eighteen years, was very badly
burned about the neck and face. Harry
Platt, who was stopping at the hotel, was
also badly burned.
II is not known how the fire started,
except that it originated in the lower
story. The house was mass Of flames
before the existence of the fire was known.
Mr.. Gray was about to leap from a Sec
ond story when he was attracted by
groans in the hall. He went back and
stumbled over his daughter, who was
PROSTATE on the floor. He dragged her
to the window, and found one of his lit
tie SOUS clinging to her dress. The two
were thus saved from being consumed by
the flames.
The building had an insurance of 81, 100
on it. No insurance on the furniture.
Mr.. Gray will Immediately rebuild. He
now occupies house that he recently
purchased from John Platt, uncle of the
young man that was so badly burned.
