checking the horrible tendencies to IA

is signed by sixteen noted divines of as
many churches. the Rt. Rev. Bishop

States this afternoon wiped out that
part Of the report of the special COM
mittee on marriage and divorce which
advised Presbyterian ministers to re-

The remainder of the report was

In order to make the removal of the
debris easy there was dug from The

When the tunnel to the penstock has

solid blocks of stone, viii be fourteen
feet wide Along this tunnel the waste
water from the penstock will flow to
discharge itself into the volume of the
Horseshoe Falls, some feet above the
bottom.
Already a considerable part of the
tunnel to the penstock has been dug,

Three companies are now working
hard on the Canadian side of the
Niagara to prepare for generating cleo
trical power from the falls. Two of
these companies are controlled by
American capital, the third exclusively
by Canadian and English capital. All
expect 10 sell their product on the
Canadian side and TO distribute power
TO points as much as 200 miles distant
from the falls.
Each company has encountered some
interesting engineering problems in
the course of the work One COM
pany, for example, has had to plan for
a roof Of unusual strength over its
power house. because il is expected
that the spray from the falls in win
