HARVESTING THE TIDES.
One Instance in Which the Power
Has Been Successfully Applied.

One Instance in which the Power
Has Been Successfully Applied.
Various plans have been suggested at
different times for the utilization of
the energy developed by the rise and
fall of the tides, but the intermittent
character of the power has usually pre-
vented any satisfactory solution of the
problem. There is, however, one in
stance in which tide power has been
quite successfully applied in a very sim
pie name Along the river front at
Liverpool there is a tendency for the
accumulation of silt against the dock
walls, requiring occasional dredging
for it's removal. Instead of using scoop
dredges, this mud is removed at diff
ferent periods 10y the use of tide power
in the following Along the
base of the dock wall is laid a pipe, per-
forated with holes, directed outward,
this pipe being connected with the in
terror of the dock system. and suitable
valves being provided to permit or
check the flow of water. When the
tide is very low, and consequently the
head of water measured from the sur
face in the docks is at it's greatest, q
sudden opening of the connection per-
mits a rapid flushing action by the
water escaping through the holes in the
pipe at the base of the walls, securing
out the mud and driving it out into
the river to be carried away. As the
tides at Liverpool average about 25 feet
or more, it is evident that this simple
form of dredging apparatus may be
very effective, and as the time chosen
for using it may be selected when the
supply of water is greatest, it does not
interfere with the regular use of the
docks. Ultimately, no doubt, the in
PRODUCTION of practical and economical
forms of power storage will render the
equalization of tide power commercial
ly practicable, but at the present time
this example serves to demonstrate the
fact hat solar and lunar attraction,
as expressed by the tides, have been
harnessed in a small way at least

A Brush With ApacheS.
BY p. WILBUR SHOOP.


THE long string of pack mules
wound down through the dark,
narrow ravine of the Hasayampae river
canyon, and crossing the dry bed of
the stream disappeared behind a ledge
of rocks jutting out from the over
hanging cliff. 1t was a lonely spot.
Ten miles below a quartz mill had been
erected, and five miles up the river was
a sheep ranch. But here no sign of life
appeared, save the sinuous line of
mules vending their way across a
stretch of alkali plain to the foothills
just beyond. The alkali dust, dry as
finder, crushed under the feet of the
animals and was waited away in little
puffs at each successive step.
The straps fastening the load to the
back of one of the animals became
loosened, and 1 stopped to fix them.
The other mules filed past and left me
about a quarter of n mile behind. AS l
was Juggling away at the straps, with
the mule occasionally looking back at
me with a quizzical expression showing
plainly on its face, 1 heard a sound as of
some one slipping over the rocks above.
The mule looked up, shifted the air,
gave a sudden lurch, wrenching the
straps from my hands, and dashed
madly off toward the animals in the
lead, probably now a mile ahead, and
already on the summit of the nearest
foothill. The tin buckets, provisions,
etc, that formed the contents of its
load, were strewn over the ground quite
promiscuously.
The other animals in the train, who
previously had been walking along in
a sleepy, mechanical way, and only
twitching their ears and swinging their
tails to vary the monotony, seemed to
be infected with the terror of the ami
NAL that had broken away from me,
and Joined it in a mad disorder. L
stepped back under the overhanging
ledge of rock, and gazed after the ami
mails, wondering as to the cause of their
sudden fright. Just then a sharp re-
port rang out. 1 felt q singing sem
sation in my right ear, and could hear
a distinct ping" I clapped my hand
to my ear; it was bleeding. Then the
reason for the mad fear of the mules
came to me. A mule that has been used
where Indians are around soon learns
to tell by intuition, it seems, whenever
one is neal and, as they have an Unborn
antipathy toward them, never lose any
time in getting out of the reach of their
rifles. This one had fred at me

We were not then expecting an out

had gathered in the hostile Apaches
and placed them under military con-
troll. The former horrors were for

guard. The only weapon 1 carried was
a navy revolver, a poor instrument to
cope with a rifle in the hands of a
bloodthirsty savage.
1 glanced up through the break in the
rocks and saw an Apache, in full war
dress, peering down to ascertain the
result of his shot. As 1 kept still, he
thought he had finished me, and so.

"You had to settle it when you were
