Remedy for Evil.

'In order to- remedy the evil which now
exists, the United States geological survey,
in cooperation with the Indian bureau has
made an exhaustive investigation of the
water supply of that section with a view
to amelorating the present deplorable con-
dftions An examination of the Indian
lands revealed the fact that there are large
quantities of underground water which can
be made available by pumping. The con-
struction of the Salt river project will de-
yelop large amount of electrical power,
which can be transmitted to the reservation
and utilized for bringing this water upon

Berlin, Nov 4.-The great natural

Hamburg is now rapidly approaching
completion. This long-cherished
scheme of the great animal collector
will present to the visitor the spectacle
of wild animals drawn from every part
of the globe living IN their native
haunts, without any enclosing rails or
bars.
one part of the zoo is devoted to
the Arctic region. Here are Polar
bears, penguins, sea-liOns, and rein
deer, all apparently together OF
course, invisible bitches divide the car
nivorous animals from the rest, and
by the same means, helped by rock
barriers, the whole Arctic zoo is en-
closed. The scenery will initiate that
of the Arctic regions, and realism is
being secured by the most skilful ar
fists In another part of the grounds
large lake is being constructed, where
some 400 wild birds will deport them
selves. On a grassy plain will rove
zebras giraffes antelopes and buffalo,
all together. Another section of the
zoo will contain lions, tigers, leopards,
and the like The rising nature OF the
ground will permit fine view OF all
these interesting animals free from the
surroundings usual to a menagerie.
When complete the place win be one
of the best sites in the world.

where Kelly got his money to pay the
