WHAT Is THE INSTITUTE WORTH

In his argument in behalf of the trustees Of the
Brooklyn Institute before Commissioners appointed by
the Supreme Court TO sppaise the value Of the prop
ery to be taken the extension of the Bridge storage
tracks in Westinghouse, yesterday, General Wingate
asked that they be awarded $4,000 counting the
building at s47 OoO which it worth to the lnsti-
tute and 1868 900 for the land. The insurance allow
ance OF 80 800 would restore the building TO the con-
don it was in before the fire which damaged it last
year.
General wngate added: "Thc Institute is entitled
TO the most liberal treatment. 1t is not money
making Institution, but part of Brooklyn The city
is really taking its property. We want an amount
sufficient 10 enable the institute TO replace what is 70
be taken and the Commissioners will never do better
days work IL they make an allowance of $4,000"
James Bergen for the Bridge trustees, thought $500
front foot for the property would be fair valuation
making a total of about $4,000.

a ROARING MONSTER.
The Greatest Well In the World ut Huron.
In South Dakota.

The Greatest Well In the World 1t Huron.
In South Dakota
The artcsian we'll on the Valley stock
farm continues to attract great crowds
of people, says the Huronite Is. d..
And well it may, for it is,really the
wonder of the age. Following the tests
made of the pressure on Saturday and
Sunday the cap was removed, and
through n nozzle two and half inch
stream OF water was shot up into the
air a distance of one hundred and TWEEN
! ty-five to one hundred and forty feet.
The direct course of the stream was
greatly interfered with by the cross
beams and braces of the derrick; with
clear way and no wind two and n
half inch stream would be sent one
hundred and sixty feet into the air. So
great is the pressure that pine boards
six inches wide and one inch thick,
used as stays and braces on the derrick
fifty feet above the mouth of the we'll,
were broken by the force of the water.
While this nozzle was on, the derrick,
which is scventy-ive feet high, was al
most hidden from view by the spray
and lettings of the stream, presenting
a sight as beautiful as it was wonder
ful.
Later in the evening Mr.. Weston,
manager Of the well and who has had
hharge of the drilling, removed the two
and half inch nozzle and placed upon
the pipe q four inch one. Immediately
stream four inches in diameter shot
up nearly seventy feet, deluging every
thing in its descent. This was ac-
companied by a deep roaring sound,
and frequent sharp reports resembling
the discharge of a rifle were heard.
This stream, as we'll as the smaller one.
struck the walking-beam and broke
much of its force.
The amount of water that flows from
jhe well is tremendous, being estimated
1t from eight thousand to ten thousand
.allons per minute. Even at the lower
igure enough pours out of the we'll to
Nrnish every man, woman and child in
he state of South Dakota with at least
our gallons of water every twenty-four
lours.
AS to the pressure, that has not yeb
been fully ascertained, but from tests
already made it is known to be con-
Iiderably more than two hundred
pounds to the square inch. With fair
est it is likely to reach two hundred
ind twenty-eight pounds. The pressure
las steadily increased for the last three
lays and may exceed the above figures.
The we'll is now nine hundred and
ixty feet deep, and as soon as ma
:hinery now ordered arrives the work
If roaming the hole to eight inches in
diameter, making it an eight-inch well
from top to bottom, will be prosecuted.
The water is soft, clear and pleasant
20 taste. 1t is flooding the low places
IN the vicinity, and, although great
bitches have been dug to carry it into
the Jim river, acres of water may be
seen in every direction.
Without doubt this is the greatest
artesian we'll in the world.

(C0MMUNICATED.)

NNONe<NNou yfO" ScotCFNuY.)
A large number of the ranches are
situated upon the bench lands be-
tween the streams, to the east of the
bottom. Nearly all of the lands in
the district outside of the bottom. are
of the first group. Very little more
fruit and vegetables are raised than
are required for use in tho valley and
to supply the Exc market, which is
small. In addition to the lands now
irrigated there are about $4,000 acres
of good land belonging to the district.
Nearly two-thirds of this might be
cultivated and water found or stored
for use upon it.
CAMP HALLECK.
This name is given to the country
northeast OF Lamoille Valley and
embracing the lands around the old
Z. 8. Military Reservation of that
name, lying between Secret creek on
the north east, the mountains on the
southeast, and John Day creek ON
the west. There are only half dozen
ranches in the district, irrigating
nearly 6,CI0 acres of land now nearly
all in hay. Tnere are about $4,000
acres Of land lying between the two
creeks named, the greater part of
which can be irrigated. Several
small lakes at the head of John Day
canyon can be utilized for the storage
OF water, while chances for reservoirs
may be found Il couple miles from the
mountains on the bench lands. The
greater part Of the land appears to
belong to the second group. although
the creek bottoms are mainly in the
third, and close to the foot of the
mountain the land is OF the first.
John Day and Lamoil!e creeks join
about FOUR miles above where they
empty into the Humboldt river and
the same distance south of Halleck
Station ON the railroad, and two miles
below their Junction Secret creek
flows into their channel.
STAR VALLEY.
Star Valley is the last one south of
the Humboldt river in this division.
1t contains larger number Ut in
habitants than any of the other val
Toys and embraces eighteen miles Of
the table lands along the foot Of the
Ruby range, extending from Secret
creek on the southwest to Willow
creek Cd the northeast, five miles
west OF the town of Wells. The
center of the valley, where tho thick
est settlements are, is south of the
town OF Deeth about four miles. The
valley will average six miles in width
between the mountains on the south
east and the Humboldt river and
Bishop creek on the north west.
These two streams practically form
tee northwest side of the valley, and
the Central Pacific railway runs down
on their right hand side, aifording
custer transportation facilities than
any OF the other valleys yet described.
There are over 1000 acres Of Ian |
irrigated In the valley by tifteel
streams that flow from tho mountains.
In addition to that irrigated there are
SOC )aores of good land not irrigated
over two-thirds of which water can
be 10 Ind for. The lard is all Of the
first and second group except some Oh
the Bishop creek and Hunbol 1t
: bottoms, and lower Star Valley.
