Famous Summer Hotel, the Grand
Union of Saratoga, Has Installed
This Beet Of All Artificial Lights
Means Increased Comfort and
Health.

Saratoga, June 27.-The very name.
Saratoga brings to every mind
health giving springs, unsurpassed
hotels and beautiful drives. 1t
has been for many years the
Mecca for all who admire nature,
enjoy good living, and are searching
for health, or are simply taking a va
cation.
The Grand Union. the largest sum-
mer hotel in the United States, set
among green trees with its long wings
enclosing a court with fountains and
flowers, grass and trees. music and
light. is throughout the season throng-
ed with guests. With the progressive
spirit always shown by its manage
ment, the Grand Union has again add
ed to its attractiveness by introduce
ing acetylene gas to make still more
brilliant the evening hours. The ge-
NAL proprietors believe in furnishing
their guests with the best of every
thing, and now. after investigating
and finding that Artificial Sunlight
can be had, they have installed a COM
plete acetylene gas plant to produce
1t. and have connected upwards of six
thousand acetylene burners in and
about the house and grounds to this
little gas plant.
Like many discoveries of recent
years, which are coming into popular
favor, acetylene, one of the most re-
cent. is very simply produced. 1t is
adapted for use wherever artificial
light is needed and the necessary APP
J.
ated by anyone.
The generator in which Acetylene
Is produced by the automatic contact of
carbide and water might be termed
gas plant. as 1t performs all of the func-
tons of city gas plant. The acct
ylene generator can be purchased for
a few dollars and in any size, from
one adapted to furnish acetylene to
ten or a dozen burners for a cottage,
up to the large but still simple ma
chine such as is now furnishing
Acetylene for six thousand burners
in the Grand Union.
Outside of large cities the use of
Acetylene is quite common. The
owner of the country home now de-
mands running water, gas and other
conveniences which few years ago
were considered as luxurles, and
acetylene gas has met his require
ments, and gives him better and
cheaper light than is ordinarily fur
nished in cities.
1t is well known that rooms lighted
with Acetylene are more comfortable,
because cooler. and more healthful be-
cause the air is not vitiated

BENEATH NIAGARA.

Under the cataract of Niagara, from
an opening beneath the Horseshoe
Falls to a pit sunk behind Golfer
dam in the bed of the river two thou
sand feet upstream, tunnel has been
bored as an outlet for one of the new
electrical development companies. Its
construction was made possible, says
The World To-Day. by two of the
most thrilling Journeys ever under
taken by workmen.
When the big tunnel-it is twenty
six feet high and twenty three feet
wide-was to be begun, neither end of
it was within the reach of the engl-
neers. for one was seven hundred feet
out from shore, behind the veil of the
fails, where no man had ever been,
and the other was one hundred and
fifty feet oeDeath the cascades. An
approach tunnel was therefore drift
ed out from shore. one hundred and
hfty-eight feet below ground, under
the brink of the falls, toward the site
selected for the portal.
10 avoid bringing all material to the
surface for dumping, the engineers
had side tunnel bored TO empty be-
meath the falls. Where it opened lay
a huge pile of debris, and as soon as
the opening was made spray from this
pile began to fill the tunnel. 1t came
in SO fast that work was abandoned.
Pumps were started. but still the wa
ter rose till 1t was sixteen feet deep
in the shaft on shore. 1t looked then
as II the whole enterprise on which n
fortune had been spent. would be
failure.
Ihen three foremen employed on the
work volunteered to go through the
tunnel In a skiff and blow away the
debris. They se:..ed punt from the
Maid OF the Mist and lowered it down
the shaft. The water was within two
feet of the roof Of the tunnel, but they
determined to make the journey. They
loaded their boat with dynamite and
electric wire and enough iron to sink
1t till 1t would allow them to move
along the tun.iel. Then lying on their
backs, they pushed the boat along the
waterway by pressing against the roof
with hands and feet. Their progress
was slow, and their situation, directly
below the mighty Niagara, was as ap-
palling as it was unique. But they
persevered, and at last reached the
portal through which the water was
entering.

James Brewster and Fred Hussey
lsst year went grizzly hunting at Big
Bend. They made their camp on the
Big Shingle Flats, and then waited IN
camp until late In the afternoon. In
the middle of the day one might travel
through that section and never see a
sign of bear, but as soon us the sun
gets down SO that the shadows cover
the slides the bears come out to feed
on the wild potato that grows there
in abundance. The valley at Big Bend
is twelve miles long. and toward even

slide. Until molested. these big ami

prettiest fight one wants TO see.
Brewster and Hussey started out to
look for bear, and about sixty or sew
enty yards from their camp found
big she bsar, which they at once decid-
ed they wanted. The bear had just
come out Of the woods, and the wind
was blowing from the bear toward the
hunter, 50 that she was unsuspicious
of the trouble in store for her. Both
men dropped into a cutting, and as
soon as the bear got into favorlte
position, Hussey fired. The shot was
little low, and striking the bear in the
foreleg broke 1t.
The bear let out n growl, snapped
viciously at the bushes and looked
around to see what caused the trouble.
but the hunter had dropped out of
sight. Hussey fired again, and this
time the bullet struck the bear fairly
In the ribs. and again she howled with
the pain and terror, but did not stop
going toward where Hussey and
Brewster were hiding. At the third
shot which also hit her. she discov-
cred the men and went for them on the
run. -Four shots from the magazine
rifle were poured into her. but al
though all hit not one stopped the bear
and Hussey. who was doing the firing,
began to breathe hard.
The bear was getting nearer than
he liked. and when she was only eight
