TUNED
AS has been stated. the magnetic needle

low tho ground. but tho level was in con-
slant use. and 10y its means exactly the
proper depth was constantly maintained.
The tunnel was built with IL slope of two

necessity. This Was done a few years ago
and tho tunnel inspected by Chief En-
gineer. now Mayor Cregier. He found it to
be in perfect order, not u single crack or
break being visible.
But the most remarkable part of tho III.
dertaking was performed at the lake end Of
the tunnel. Thc "crib" was constructed
on shore. It is composed Of huge timbcrs
bolted togethor. 1t is 4Oll9s feet high, in
diameter. II was built in three sections or
walls. one within tho other. all SO bolted
together as to form one vast structure. AT
the corners 1t was armed with iron plates
ject in the water. Computed in board
mcasure.' over 60U.OO0 feet Of lumber was
used. together with IS tom of iron bolts
and 300 bales Of oakum for calking. Be-
fore it was moved from the stocks where it
was built 100000 had lecn expended
upon it.
On July 81. 1865. this vast structure was
launched. and amid grent excitement towcd

This accomplished. II shaft was sunklike
tho n on tho shore and the work Of tun-
neling was begun from the lake end of tho
submarine bore. The entire length of tho
tunnel is 1857 feet. of which about four
tlfths was constructed from the shore end.
On tho 2ith day of November. 1866. the two
sections were united by cutting away the
barrier Of clay which remained and the
great tunnel was one continuous tube from
the shore to the crib, two miles away.
1t was believed that tho water supply thus
provided for would be adequate for the
needs OF the city for IL generation ut least.
but so enormous was the growth of Chica-
go that within six years steps were taken
to increase 1t.
Early In 1872 tho Board of Public Works
purchased ground at the intersection of
Blue Island and Ashland avenues. about
three miles south and moro than two miles
west of the shore end of tho tunnel. where
they propose to erect new pumping works.
Tho supply Of water was to be procured by
means Of Misunderstanding d~ia.ona!ly ACROSS
the city to the foot of Chicago avenue.
This second great work was begun July
18th. 1872. and completed in two years. The
procedure was nearly the same us the first
tunnel. and need not be described. The

A newspaper correspondent, having
visited an Arapaloe camp, gives the
following account of an Indian drill,
ordered for his amusement:
"Fifty fine looking young men,

they began their evolutions with a loud
yell.
Sin a moment they disappeared over
a neighboring hill. Then there sud
denly rose a mighty tramping of feet,
and they swept past again, so compact
that 1 only saw a ball made of horses
and men.
Splitting in two, one body swept to
the right and another to the left, and
again they disappeared. Presently
they charged each other in solid lines,
and while the spectator waited breath
lessly for the shock of collision, the
files skillfullv opened to the right and
left. and the lines passed the Intervals
without touching.
Now came the moment for display
ing individual h~oremanship. Some OF
the riders approached, each lying so
close to the pony's back that nothing
but the horse conld be seen. Others
stood erect upon the animals backs.
Some hung to the horse by one foot
and one hand, so that their bodies were
completely protected 10y those of the
ponies.
"These young warriors threw objects
upon the ground and picked them up
ct full gallon, and drew bows and ar
rows from beneath the horses necks.
Some of the men exchanged horses
while riding.
"Again, a man would fall from his
horse, as if wounded, and two others
riding up beside him, would take him
by an arm and Il leg. swing him between
their horses and carry him off.
"This exhibition lasted nearly two
hours"
