WANT UNCLE SAM TO
DEED LAND TO CITY
Efforts Made to Secure Piece of
Ground From Reserve
for a Park.

Mayor Thompson has received word
from Senator Smoot that he fears that
the negotlations for the exchange OF land
by the Government and lie Grnndc Young
have gone so far that IL is too late for
the city to hope to secure the portion OF
the Fort Douglas reservation THAI IL mas
been desired 10 obtain.
The Mayor mas been In communicaDon
for some time past with Utans repre-"
sentatives in Congress and with the Sec
rotary of War cndeavorlnS TO have the
Government deed to the city or salt Lake
about fifty acres OF land that Hes be-
tween Popperton Place and the Univcr-
slty OF Utah grounds.
Pipe Line Across Tract.
The city has several pipe lines running
across the tract and also tho conduit
carrying the waters from Parley's creek.
across the land, and the Mayor was de-
slrous OF having the land decided TO inc
city to cover this difficulty, and also with
the intention, II possible, or having tne
land laid out for n city park, for which
purpose 1t is admirably adapted,
According TO Information received from
Washington, tho Government mad already
been negotiating with lie Grande Young
of this city to trade this tract lor SeN-
cral hundred acres of land that MI
Young owns in Red Butte canyon and on
which stone auarrles have been worked
for several years.
Target Practice Interfered With.
1t is stated that the target practice ut
the fort has been somewhat intcrtored
with owing to the fact that Mr.. Young
has a right-of-way through tho fort
grounds TO the quarries. and the travel OF
the teams to and from the quarries
has so interfcred with the target prac-
tice that the authorities decided that they
would try 10 effect an exchange with Mr-
Young The land that the city has been
TRYING to obtain is considered TO be worth
about 100000.
In his latest communication Senator
Smoot told the Mayor that he thought the
n.ntter had gone too far for the city &c
hope for favorable action, as the blu
providing for the transfer to Mr. Young
is already before the House. Je stated
however, that he could secure for the
city the perpetual right TO maintain the
conduit and pipe lines across the prop
erty.

DEVICE TO RAISE WATER
Carpenter at Saltair Has Invented a
Water Wheel.

George Hall, a carpenter, late of Dav-
enport, Ia, now employed at Saltair has
invented n device for raising water for
short distances for lrrigating purposes
and for developing power,
The device consists of a wheel with
adjustable paddles and buckets FOR lifting
the water. The wheel Is propelled by the
force of the current OF the stream The
adJustible paddles are at right angles
with the stream at the bottom of the
wheel. and as thoy raise they are de-
flccted so as to avoid the power lost,
where the paddles are stationary with ref
erence to the wheel, by lifting water as
the paddles near the surface.
The adjustment of the paddles also
avoids air friction when the wind blows
In opposite direction from the course or
the wheel When the buckets are re-
moved power alone Is produced.
