FEAR FOR NIAGARA

Power the lndueement.

Niagara Falls, August 1.-THE
volume Of water being diverted
from the historic Niagara Falls is
reaching such proportions that the
people Of the State are trying to pass
laws which will prevent the possibil.
ity OF a practical wiplng out OF this
sublime natural spectacle.
Water sufficient to develop nearly
five hundred thousand horsepower
continuously, twenty.four hours per
day, for industrial purposes, is now
being taken from the river above the
Falls, and further developments re.
curing more water are contemplated.
Probably the largest user Of the
electricity produced by the waters Of
the mighty river Is the concern which
by the FIVE or six thousand degree
heat Of the electric furnace brings
lime and coke into unwilling union,
thereby producing what is known as
Calcium Carbide.
Dry calcium carbide is lfeless as
so much broken rock, but In contact
with water II springs into activity and
begets abundantly the gas Acetylene.
The light resulting from the ignition
Of acetylene is the nearest approach
to sunlight known.
These facts, though OF compare
lively recent discovery, were soon
seized by men with an eye TO the com
mercial possibilities and to-day cal
cium carbide is being shipped every
where and used for dispelling dark
ness in buildings OF all descriptions,
from the ordinary barn Of the farmer
to the country villa Of the wealthy, as
well as for lighting the streets Of a
large number Of towns Acetylene
can be easily and cheaply installed,
and the manufacture and sale Of
acetylene generators has become q
business Of recognized standing, has
assumed large proportions and is
steadily growing.
