An eminent English scientist has ex-
pressed the hope and the belief that be-
fore many years the great cataract of
Niagara will be turned aside from its
course and every particle OF its majes-
tic force utilized In furnishing electric
mower to the mills and railroads of the
surrounding region. The harnessing
of the giant to the service of man has
already begun, and there will be two
opinions as to the wisdom OF carrying
the process of subjugation so far. Ma
terial advantage is not the only thing
to be considered; grand and beautiful
scenery has value that cannot
be expressed in dollars and cents. No

could make good the loss Of Niagara
