AS to the aggregate possibilities of the
falls. i quote the figures that are given
here. There is no doubt but that the force
Is greater than South Africa can use for "A
century to come. AS for myself. L doubt
the statement that Ii so far SurpaSses
Niagara. for the reason that there are
times of the year when the Zambesi Is
low. and a waterfall of this kind can only
be gagged by its minimum flow. The
Zambesi can certainly furnish several mill
lion horsepower year In and year out.
One of the great questions in connec-
ton with Niagara Is whether the taking
away of the water for electricity Will
eventually destroy the falls. 1t is claimed
that the volume of water flowing over the
American falls is already much less and
that the total diversion, when all the
works now operating or under construc-
ton are carried out, will be equal to about
40 per cent of the minimum discharge or
the Niagara river. At present the plants
are said to have a capacity OF about fifty
thousand cubic feet of water per second,
whereas the normal discharge of Lake
Erie over the falls is only a little more
than two hundred thousand cubic feec
per second AT this rate IL will not he
many years before the beauty OF our
falls as a great natural wooder Will pass
away.
The same fear has been EXPRESSED as TO
the Zambesi Falls, but the British South

anything of this kind. The difference in
the fall of the Zambesi is very great at
different times OF the year. and the views
when the river is high cannot be inn

equal the force of 1.0OO.HiO tons of coal.
SO that. figuratively speaking. million
down into this gorge every twenty-four
hours. In other words. the Victoria
falls every two weeks supply an energy
equal to that of the yearly coal output
of the state of Alabama and In one
year if their volume were the same
from season TO season, they would al
most equal tine force contained IN ell
the coal mined in the Cn:te.l States in
that year Our otal sproduct of coal is
now 375,0OO. 600 tons per anEum.
, Whether these enormous figures are
correct or not Is Of little matter. The
possibilities are beyond any demand.
The horsepower now in use in the
Transvaal is less than 100000 and all
that we have developed at Niagara is
not quite two-thirds as large. This pres
ent syndicate plans to start out with $4,000
horsepower, and it will have a quarter of
a million horsepower within not many
years.
How the Falls Will Be Used.
During my stay here I have gone with
the officials of the British South Africa
Company TO the proposed power station
and to the northern bank of the river
above the falls. where the canal will be
dug which will take the water and drop
it into the turbines. At some distance
above the falls the Zambesi is two miles
wide. 1t narrows to mile before 1t
reaches the great gorge into which 1t
goes in one mighty drop of 400 feet. The
falls are as wide as from the Treasury
to the Capitol in Washington. and the
water jumps straight down for a dis
lance of 400 feet BY means of the canal
now projected the drop viii be only $50
feet; and the water will pour into ten
great turbines. each of which will gen.
crate five thousand horsepower, making
fifty thousand horsepower at the first in
stallation. The machinery used is to be
just the same as is now employed at
Niagara, and one of the chief engineers
connected with the construction is a
