ter of the Gunnison river down into the valley of the Unconpahgre. This valley is lower than that of f'the Gunnison. The Unconpahgre river is but little stream that loses itself every few miles and fur nishes but little water for irrigation pur- poses. There are tens of thousands of acres of land in it's valley, however, that but await the coming of the waters of the Gunnison to be transformed into verita- ble bowers of fertiity-a land flowing with more milk and honey than was known to even the Canaan of old. The project is an expensive one, but when 1t is remembered that each acre of land that had been worth less than a solitary brass tack. will be worth from s100. up to $500 it will be seen that it will be worth a heavy expenditure from Uncle Sam's money box.
 Many strange and some amusing things happen in the course of the construction of underground railroads. Some time ago in New York, where the deadly third rail Is being rendered harmless by being so covered and protected that one can only touch it intentionally, group of Italian laborers were trying to solve the mystery of motive power without steam. For days they tried to comprehend the new force and where it came from. At last they concluded that the third rail must have something to do with it. One of them took his crowbar and struck the rail. Of course he received severe shock, but somehow he escaped with his life. He threw the crowbar away with a scream of pain and ran from the place like a wild man. He ran over steep embankment and broke his leg. In fall ing, his crowbar made short circuit be- tween the third rail and another, and disastrous fire occurred, putting the cleo tric apparatus out of commission for some time. That Italian never put in his appearance again
 The underground railroad as means of urban transportation has come to stay. While there are many little annoying de- tails, such as ventilation. that have not been solved entirely to the satisfaction of the travelling public, yet, in the main the engineering difficulties have been solved. As a satisfactory means of transportation in cities 1t has surpassed all others. It's first cost is heavy but the cost of main tenance is not to be compared with that of elevated roads.
 At Thirty-fourth avenue, New York, is perhaps the most remarkable railroad spot in the world. Down deep into the ground runs the Pennsylvania tunnel.

stroyed the old Messersmith building,
the property of the Dakota National

store by Smith & Kimberly and Hen.

plant used for lighting caused the
fire, which was spread to all parts

barely getting out alive. The fire
was early in the evening, before the
jewelry had been placed in the safe,
and Mr.. Roberts will probably be
quite loser, as he carried but par

difficulty in keeping the flames from
spreading. but there was no chance
to save the contents of the store.
