found but not explored, and was quick ly filled up with debris.
 An average of about 600 men and 100 teams were engaged in the coustruc- tion of the road. Miners will bett IF appreciate the amount of work neces- sary to create the road bed by the sim pie statement that there were 450,000 pounds of giant powder used in blast ing out the rock on the line.
 The old town of "Slag Dump" in Mo- renci canyon, which for years had been the homes of many people, was com pletely wiped off the face of the earth in order that the road might have room to wind its way up the narrow canyon. The topography and geogra. phy of the canyon was entirely chang ed.
 Over 100000 feet of timber was used in trestling, in addition to the steel bridging.
 The maximum grade of the road is 3i per centum, and the maximum curv- ature is 40.
 The construction between the Gila and San Francisco river is all standard gauge and equipment, the bridges, trestles, tunnels and excavations being made full standard. Between Morenci and the San Francisco river the con struction is narrow gauge.
 It has been announced by number of papers that this road will be extend ed on from it's junction with the A. & N. M. to Lordsburg or Separ in order to join the road now being built east. ward from NacosaIi and Bisbee, where the same company is also operating extensive copper mines.
 The town of Morenci and the man. agement of the Detroit Copper Co.,, are to be congratulated on the successful termination of this giant enterprise. The firm of contractors also deserve much credit for the manner in which it has performed the work.

TRAGEDY OF A LIFE.
Sailor Deserted by Friends Dies
 Alone on a Barren Island.
Ills skeleton Found in HIS Bunk with . Diary by His Side in Which He Had RseOPded His Terrible
 Experiences.

On Unimak island, which guards one of the entrances to the Behring sea, a rude mound of rocks marks the last resting place of Charles William An derson, sailor, fisherman and hunter.
 Anderson starved to death on the bleak and barren island waiting for friends who deserted him. He died on June 19, 1899, and his skeleton in bis bunk and his diary beside it were found by two hunters who were driven on the island during storm.
 The diary was addressed to Andrew Groswold, of Unga, who arrived at San Francisco few days ago with his friends last writings.
 Several vessels passed by his island prison, the pathetic record reads, but none saw Anderson's flag of distress Once vessel was becalmed close to the shore and he tried to reach it, but he had not the strength left to launch<his little boat. His legs had failed him and he could only pull himself along by his elbows.
 He deliberated on shooting his dog, Dempsey, but he could not screw up courage to slay his faithful friend. He brought seals to me through the break ers," he wrote, land fed him as long as l could" Finally the dog disappeared
 The diary records the terrible suffer ings of Anderson from thirst and his expeditions after fresh water. The last entry says:
 Monday, June l9.-Now I must go for water again. am more afraid this time than before. But with Gods help l may come back again. I would not like to die outside. But Gods will be done."
 He had his wish, for he returned and died in his bunk.

The irrigation problem in the west is
daily assuming more serious aspect,
and it seems that its solution is still far
distant. Forests that have in the past
served to hold the snow in reserve for
use in the irrigating season are daily
disappearing and nothing is being done
to overcome the damage wrought. 1t
seems that the best and most feasible
means of righting this is through a sys-
TEN of storage reservoirs, erected and
maintained by the government. Forest
reserves will also aid very materially in
the matter but in many places the
damage has already been accomplished
and can not be overcome in this man
ner. Private individuals or corpora
tions cannot successfully handle the
reservoirs, except in a few extremely
favorable locations, because the large
outlay Of capital necessary in the be
ginning and the inevitable desire for
quick returns, places the price of water
so high that it is beyond the reach of
the farmer, The government should
handle the matter along the same lines
that ii now handles the river and harbor
question. 1t can do the work ut less
expense and furnish water cheaper
than any other agency.
