WATER POWER In THE ALPS.
Factories Operated by Electricity
Generated by Force OF Noun
tain streams.

A number of circumstance have
recently directed the attention of
France more than ever before to the
utilization of water power for driving
machinery. The country has been
suffering from the coal crisis which
last year caused a serious advance
in the price of this fuel; and while
steam coal was becoming more eNpen-
sive, the need for it was greater
than ever owing to activity in the
metallurgic industries and in railroad
building. France is compelled to buy
large quantities of coal owing to her
insufficient home supply. One of the
foremost questions now before the
country is the substitution of water
power in the Alps for n good deal of
the coal now consumed in French
factories, says n London journal. ge
The Alpine region of France is
about as large as tnat of Switzerland,
Lombardy and Piedmont together.
This fact is not widely recognized.
The mountains of southeastern
France on the whole are by no means
so imposing as the Swiss and Italian
Alps, but they cover more ground.
The population of Frances Alpine
districts is much less than that of
the neighborng mountain regions.
and this is one of the reasons why
Switzerland and Italy have far sur
passed France in the utilization of
mountain streams for driving machin-
cry. .HpO
Annalcs de Geographic recently an
nouncCd that there are now in the
French Alps As factories whoSH pow
rr is electrically supplied TO them
hv electricity generated from wntrr
power Engineers estimate that at
least 3OOO,OO0 horse power is now
running to waste among the Strehins
of the Alps which might be harntssed
in the service of many Industries an /
thus reduce tho Importation of coal
France fakes high rank in the pro-
duction of electrical machinery and
thus may supply her own appliances
for the transmission of water power
Several important projects are now
under way. Work is in progress for
the development of 10000 horse pow
cr near Bellcgarde. A French cngi-
ncer named Soulcyrc proposes tc
transform the lower Rhouc into n
gigantic hydraulic stairway" by
which industry and agriculture will
largely profit. A committee of engi-
neers appointed by the ministry of
public works and agriculture is study
ing the project with view to decid-
ing upon it's feasibility.

hole in the door. The pipe was at an
angle OF about 35 degrees. A cloud
of smoke was coming from it. Four

occupants of that. The man was the

1t is reported that as many as IT,,
600 birds were shipped from New
Orleans to single New York house
in one year, and that this is not an
eNaggeration is indicated by the fact
that that year shipment of 1900
gulls and terms from Morgan City,
La. was stopped at Baltimore by the
efforts Of the American Ornitholog-
ical union. Proceedings were begun
against Dumont g. Co., the consignees,
under the federal and state laws pro-
hibiting the killing and traffic in sea
birds; and the case was decided in
favor of the union. But while the
union was successful in securing the
passage in % states of laws protect
ing the sea birds, at least in the
breeding season, it was unable to in
duce the Louisiana legislature to aid.
1t has accordingly determined to try
to accomplish the same results in an
other way. TO that end, it has ar
ranged with Prof. George +. Boyer, Of

tive of the union in Louisiana, to pro
