has done-go to work at anything we could find to tide us over. In a camp full of men, women can always find work. We could cook, wash, mend, sew on buttons, read palms and foretell the future, sell doughnuts, make beds, teach school--why, if 1t came right down to 1t we could shoulder a pick and shovel and dig. There are hum dred things woman could turn her hand to if she were forced to it. Neither of us--in fact, none of the company-is afraid of work. and when we locate our mine we all expect to take our turn at the picks and pans until we are sure. One of the men who is going with the party is a prac- tical assayer, and when we find our gold we will have It assayed before anyone knows anything about where we got it.'
 The charts made by Miss Smith are clearly drawn and well executed and when submitted to a mining engineer were pronounced as accurate as if made from observation of the ground Contributed to the Chicago Chronicle by PlTinheld, N. J., correspondent.

q X Ey been making the fiercest of efforts at Albany to renew an old charter which would allow it to take away a further quotum of Niagara Falls to be carried by canal across to Lake Ontario. Dr. Clark estimates that this company would use not less than 10000 cubic feet of water second, bringing the total to 58,400 cubic feet Over and above this, the engineer of the commissioners of Queen Victoria Niagara Falls Park has suggested feasible sites for four ad- ditional Canadian companies, to con- sume 29,996 cubic feet of water a sec ond, bringing the total to 8S,396 cubic feet of water second demanded by the work now going on, plus the contem- plated operations. Finally engineers point out that even if the power de- Velopment is at once halted at the falls there is a strong probability that great quantities of water will be taken from the Great Lakes above the river, which would have the same deadly tendency to reduce the volume of water at Ni- agara Falls. With a difference in level between Lake Erie and Lake Ontario of 327 feet, and the distance between the two lakes only tWenty-seve nmiles, the engineering opportunity is obvious. Then there are the additional draughts of the Welland Canal, the Erie Canal and the Chicago drainage canal.
 The net result of these drains from the water of the Great Lakes and from their outlet, the Niagara River, is, in the oinion of many competent engi- neers, the certain doom of the falls. Is it worth while? And if the indus trial gain does not compensate for do- ing to death one of the wonders of the earth, heritage from nature peculiar ly associated with the grandeur of the American demain-What are we to do abou tit? As to the first question, it is worth remembering that the com munity about Niagara would not profit after the falls were gone, to the full ex- tent of the industrial improvements, for there would be subtracted the very considerable economic advantage of at tracting every year, 80OO00 to 100000 visitors But the larger loss will come to the whole nation in the death of glorious and inspiring marvel of na- ture, and we confidently believe the peoples of the United States and Can- ada would forego a more important ad- dition to the national wealth than is represented in few hundred thousand horsepower rather than lose this great object of sentiment and beauty. As to the way of preventing the loss, it is clear that only an international agree ment between Great Britain and Amer ica, to be made after thorough inves- tigation and consideration of the mat terby a commission of scientific au- thority, can be at all effective in saw ing Niagara Falls for the enjoyment and wonder of future generations.-The Country Calendar.

 Falls Will Be Dry Unless Prompt Ac-
 ton is Taken.
 It may be that we ought to shut our eyes to the impending destruction of the glory of Niagara Falls. It may be that the hope of cheaper production of considerable quantity of electrical pow CT, of breakfast foods, of chemicals, of utensils, is a more worthy object in our national life than the rescue of a noble and stupendous work of nature. Frankly, "The County Calendar" votes for Niagara. But, however intelligible is the opposite view, it is certainly a matter important enough to demand a thorough understanding of the facts by the American people and an honest searching of their conscience and good taste before the life of the great Falls is sucked away into power tunnels. To get at the evact situation, we have taken the facts recent ypresented by pr. Clark, the New York State geolo- gist, and other eminent eminent special pleaders for Niagara, and we have had these facts verified by the expert hy- draulic engineers most prominent in the industrial plants that now threaten the Falls,
 The generally accepted volume of the Niagara River at the brink of the Falls is 224,000 cubic feet a second. There are at present two power companies operating on the American side and three at work or preparing fwor work, on the Canadian side, The process of using the power of the river produced by it's sheer plunge of 161 feet is to convey water by tunnels canals or pipe lines from some point above the brink to the lower level below the Falls. It is obvious that If all the water were thus conveyed around the brink of sub terranean passages or canals there be none to make falls. But it seems that the American Falls will probably disappear when much less than half the water Is subtracted, for the brink of the hard dolomite rock owed which the river plunges is no less than ten feet higher on the American side than on the Canadian, the greater bulk of the water passing on the British side of Goat Island. Dr, Clark estimates that when 40,000 cubic fet of water a second has been subtracted from the river there will be but thin and pitt wul apron of water remaining of the American Falls. He predicts that when 80, 900 cubic feet of water are used in the power plants one may walk dry shod along the brink of these falls and an arid waste of rockbed will be left between Goat Island and the mainland.
 These five companies now in opera ton are allowed by their charters to take 4S00O cubic fet of water a second. So that there is clearly impending a contraction of the American Falls to a pitful remnant. But the danger does not stop here. During the last winter an dspring a sixth power company has

 Cromwell
 Wallingford, Jan. 10,-Commander Edward L. Weld, of Arthur H. Dutton post, yesterday afternoon received the appointment of superintendent of the Womans Relief corps building at Cromwell. The appointment will be a surprise to many of his friends, but none the less pleasing to the many in town and elsewhere, as well as in G. A. R. circles.
 Yesterday MT. Weld received word from the state secretary of the w. R. C., Mrs. Bevins, of Middietown, to re- port to Mrs, Harriet J. Bodge, past na- tional president of the W. R. C., at Hartford.

C. home at Cromwell.
 MT. Weld will assume the duties of superintendent within few days, but will not move from here to Cromwell until about the fore part of February. He went over to Cromwell yesterday, and, in company with Rev. MT. Lowell, of MiddletoWn, visited the home.
 With the appointment of MT. Weld as superintendent Mrs. Weld will be mat ron at the home. MT Weld is a ve.ter- an of the civil war having served as drum major in the Rhode Island heavy artillery, enlisting from the Russell mil- itary school at New Haven For four teen years he was drum major for the Second regiment, c. N. C., and screwed as brigade drum major at three Con- necticut N. c. encampments- MT. Weld has filled the position of drum major for the National band for a number of years.
 He has been a member of Arthur H. Dutton post for a number of years, and Is now serving his second consecu- tive term as commander of that post, having been installed last Friday night. In the same post he also filled the of- flee of senior vice commander and ser- egant major,
 Mir. Weld has been employed for the past sixteen years at the New York In- sulated Wire company works.
 The homethat MT. Weld is to have chargeof has been purchased by the w. R. c. of Connecticut, so that a placeis now provided where a veteran can go and reside, taking his wife with him. The home is to be opened within a few weeks to receive inmates.

A HARVARD DRUNK SAVED.
Helping Hand Lifted Him to Good Place From Nonad Life of a
 WearY Waggles.

Weary WaggleS
 From the nomad life of Weary Waggles' to a position in the shops of the Santa Fe Railroad. paying $250 per month, was the transition through which Emil Thoma, graduate of liar vard former drunkard and outcast, passed within few weeks.
 He left the Helping Hand Institute yesterday for Alberquerque N. M., where he will enter upon the duties of his new position.
 Thoma showed up at the Helping Hand Institute three weeks ago. He had been drinking heavily for several weeks past, and the ravages of whiskey and dissipation were plainly evident. Ragged and unkempt, he approached the desk of the superintendent and re- ceived a ticket entftling him to bed and bath. He was given job wash ing dishes in the kitchen of the Help ing hand Institute. This place he kept until the offer which reached him by accident few days ago.
 Thoma was educated at Harvard. His parents were wealthy and he re- ceiyed all the advantages they could offer. He took course in science, and , after graduation entered the employ of the General Electric Manufacturing Company, Schenectady, N, Y, the largest establishment of it's kind in the world. He held a responsible posi- ton with this company and was mar ried to young woman, whom he had known since childhood in Wilkes Barre, Penn.
 After the marriage Thoma built a little home in the outskirts of Sche- nectady and lived happily with his wife until few years later, when she died. Thoma then became negligent and began to drink heavily. He was finally discharged, and without the spirit to look for another position, be came tramp and wanderer. He drifted to St. Louis. There he worked about in restaurants, and at other small jobs, but spent most of what he earned for drink. He came to Kan sas City about three weeks ago and went immediately to the Helping Hand There he attended the nightly religious meetings and at one of these was con- verted.
 Thoma had, while working in the East made reputation as an electri- cal engineer, and when it was learned by the Santa Fe Railroad that he was in Kansas City an offer was immedi- ately made for his services in the shops of that company.
 Before he accepted this position sam Mitchell of the Helping Hand Insti- ute gave him money with which he could redeem the clothes he had pawned at St. Louis. He went away yesterday, dressed in clothing such as he had not worn for several weeks to accept position such as he had not held for a considerably longer time.

And they did.

And they did.
 Another night, sleety and black, with the old-fashioned street full of terrify- ing shadows. AS the woman slipped and slid along through them, there came swaggering toward her three young negro men, humming a ragtime tune. She turned icy with fear and put her whistle to her lips, ready to blow, in case of-of-
 But they passed her by. Heaven forever bless them!
 A gloriously silver, silent night, and the woman alone in it, as far as she could see. At Market space she found the pavement under the arc rays, sWarming with big electric bugs Their greenish wings were folded over their backs, and so eXcitely did they race up and down that it amused her to stop and make believe she had got into a strange silver-sheen plant, where the inhabitants were beetles. One unlucky fellow was on his back, kicking his dou- ble row of legs in a useless effort to turn oyer. If you have ever known what it was to need helping hand it makes you sorry for bug on it's back. The woman stopped, turned it with her hatpin-and strengthened up to find herself watched by a thin old man. Somewhere a clock boomed out a single stroke.
 That is kind deed, daughter though you'd better be in yourt bed That insect will never stop to think how often the good God, helps you? Even a woman of the streets may find salvation if she has a kind heart. Take an old mans advice daughter. Go home and try to lead better life.
 When the woman had rectified his mistake she learned that the old man was a night watchman, and that in earlier years he had lifted his voice. at religious meetings in the streets.
 A starlight night; cold and beautiful ly clear. In front of the woman, on the avenue drunken man cakewalking a. long the track; coming toward him a car. The woman made rush and pulled him backward, the motorman yelled things and the car flashed by Then the man said
 I've got no money for you-scat!"
 Only 8 drunken man would suppose a body wanted to be paid for so small a favor much as it meant to him. But he wasn't very grateful was he? How ever that only made one ugly man in a record of six years, and maybe he's nice when he's sober The woman soon learned that the people who prowl around, for one reason or another dis appear about midnight, leaving the streets almost deserted, and corres- pondingly safer If a man walked briskly carried a cane or smoked she breathed freely. If he slouched toward her she held her whistle to her lips. That she never sounded it once in the whole six years may give you some idea as to her opinion of the streets of Washington after midnight, and of her faith in those she met there-her brothers of the night.-- Washington Star.

MAN, CONVENTIONAL AND JUN

A woman whose business for six years compelled her to be in the streets after midnight, has had an opportunity to study man from viewpoint not granted to her sheltered sisters.
 Conventional man is riddle seldom solved this side the wedding ring, but man is not conventional in the small hours He is primeval, and shows up, good or bad to the first unprotected woman he comes across in the black silence of the mystery called night, So the woman has met him and so she has judged.
