THE POWER OF WATER.

The men who are putting the bridge across Owl canyon for the Morenci Southern had to blast out lot of rock eli each side in preparing the approach and foundation for the bridge which will be a single span. The handfest waJ' to dispose of these rocks was to tumble them into the canyon. As the bottom of the canyon is about thirty feet wide, the rocks thrown in there made d heap several feet high.
 The other day flood came town the canyon. The men said that when the flood struck this pile of rocks there was a rear sounding like that at Niagara falls. This was followed by q series of sharp reports like the ratt.e of musketry. caused by the roc&s lol- ling over each other. When the ii1Oi subsided not one of the rocks the men had tumbled into the canyon Was in sight, the flood having oarrisd them all away.
 It is lucky for the railroad company that this canyon is narrow enough to be crossed by q 5inGIc span briiga. It wouIt be Impossible to build pje"- in it that would withstand the floods that come through it.--LordS5urg Liberal
