HUGE IRRIGATION DAM.
ROCK BARRAGE a CROSS NARR0W
CANYON IN MOUNTAINS OF
WYOMING.
Government Works Will Store Flood
Waters For Fertilization of One
Hundred and Fifty Thousand Oes-
ert Acres.

A quarter of century ago the
home of the buffalo, and later a cat
tie and sheep pasture, with an 0cca-
sional ranch house, the Big Horn
Basin in Wyoming is now the scene of
a great activity incident to the build
ing of one of the largest Of the govern
ment irrigation works. Some years
ago Colonel Cody, better known as
Buffalo Bill, made survey OF the
Shoshone canyon, and in connection
with General Miles, projected a COM
pany to construct dam and irrigate
some 10000 acres. The necessary cap
ital however was not Forthcoming and
when the national irrigation law was
passed, the government took up the
proposition, and large party of en-
gineers has since been employed on
the preliminaries of a great work of
desert reclamation.
The Shoshone River dashes down
narrow canyon, with jagged and per-
pendicular walls, and at its narrow
est point the government has begun
the construction of the highest dam
ever built 1t will cement together
The two canyon walls for 240 feet
above the stream bed, ana It's f0unua-
ton will go below the water line 81
feet additional, down to the solid bed
rock. The stream, where 1T passes
between these granite canyon walls, IS
but 65 feet wide, and the dam VIII
form a great lake of 5000 acres, with
q watershed of 1850 square miles,
and storing enough water to irrigate
100000 acres through seven miles of
14-foot tunnels bored in the solid
rock.
Little Chance For Land Grabbing.
This will cost about $25 an acre to
be paid back to the government by
settlers, under the business-like pro-
visions of the irrigation law. The land

and has been reserved by Secretary
Hitchcock from entry under the
Desert and other land laws not requir-

Few such picturesque and wildly
beautiful scenes can be found as this
Shoshone canyon. The river is sue
ceSsion of foaming, rushing rapids the
water coursing along in a deep green
flood, and then boiling over great rocks
and boulders in a white surge. Only
for few hours each day can the sun
find its way to the bottom of this
deeply-cut gorge, the mountain sides
towering into the clouds two and three
thousand feet. From above the dam
site as one looks down at the engin-

granite and limestone, wearing, wear

which Eemits payments of taxes

Sevastopol Nov. 26.-Though the
mutinous sailors have not yet sub
mitted. but on the contrary have re-
ceived promises of support from the
crews of the batteship Pandeleimon
formerlv the KniaZ Potemkine) and
the cruiser Otchakoff and though they
are i'm complete possession of Admiral
ty point where the barracks are To-
Gated. there were no disorders today
ana the situation is regarded as much
improved.
The mutineers have been deserted
by the Brest regiment. which march
ed off under arms to a camp formed
by loyal sailors and sent a message TO
Vice Admiral Chouknin asking his
pardon ana saving they were ready to
return to duty. The crews OF all ships
exaept4the Pandelaimon aud the Otch-
akoff refused TO ioin the mutlny or an
swer the signals of the sailors on
shore
The men on the Ships named have
not yet risen. The authorities have
posted artillery on the boulevard,
which is the sole avenue of commune
cation between the city and the
stronghold of the mutineers and on
the Balaklava road, the only other
egress from Admiralty point. They
have the mutineers completely hem
med. but are awaiting the arrival OF
the troops from Simferopol before at
tenn pting to retake the barracks.
Small bodies of unarmed sailors,
however. were allowed to enter the
city today and they strolled about
without being molested. The govern
ment buildings were guarded by
troops
The mutineers are apparently in a
state of excellent discipline. They
have constructed barricades. have
placed a guard at the Aqueduct which
supplies the barracks ANA have thrown
out the Dickets which take regular
turns at guard duty. They declared
they had risen because their comman-
ders had withheld the concessions
promised bv the emperor and they
are ready to hold out until these are
put into effect.
The strike of the railroad men in
sympathy with the mutinous sailors Is
delaying the arrival of troops.
