Peter the Great was so impressed by
Amsterdam. perched upon the waters.

and build new capital which should
have canals for streets. In his cam

an island situated in the midStrcanl OF
the Neva. Here is my Russian Am

ately began the building of city there.
The site was marsh in summer and
a frozen morass in winter Two mis-
erable huts were the only buildings.
The erection of the citadel, a great fort
in the shape of heXagon, with tow

out the city still exists.

Hundreds of plans have been prepared
at the department headquarters under
the personal supervision of Col. Pond.
Hundreds of others have been submit
ted to him for official improval, and
it was necessary to go over all the de-

InnumcraDle trips of inspection have
been made necessary by the work. It
is class of work which requires per-

MILLION SPENT in ARMY POSTS
Million Dollars Expended Under Direction
OF Col. Pond, in Construction at Army
Posts in the Department of Dakota.

Col. George f. Pond, who soon
leaves his post as chief quartermaster
of the department of Dakota for a
wider sphere of action, has expended
over a million dollars for improve

volved the building of entirely new
army posts Fort Lincoln, near Bis

his genius at construction, as he has
superintended and directed the work

neer Press as to the expenditures at
the different posts includes the follow
ing spent at Fort Lincoln:
Construction of buildings. s1S2. 400

by Col. Pond, the Pioneer Press says:
The total for buildings in the de-
partment Of Dakota, since March,
1899, to date including work under
construction and contracts let is S745
