 The new store will now make de- liveries to any part of the city and will ship purchases of $2.50 or moe to any part of the state.
 IA traveller system has been inaugu- rated making it possible for the shopper to make purchases in all departments without the annoyance offwaiting for change and caring for parcels, which are cared for and all securely tied in one bundle.
 A visit to this live store cannot fail to benefit any shopper especially at this season when every penny saved will enable one to do just so much more toward insuring a Merry Christmas for some one.

KEEPING THE STREETS CLEAN
Suggestions Of New York Man for

William Van v. Hayes of New York
presents suggestions for improving
the care Of the streets In New York

Of heterogeneous are found In the
dust of the streets; anthrax. tubercu.
losis, diphtheria. tetanus. typhoid and
dysentery have been detected in it.
The tubercle bacillus when dried In
large. thick crusts and left in a cold,
dark place like a corridor will live for
six to eight months. The bad condi
ton Of the streets is in part due to
carelessness Of the citizens and In
part to antiquated methods Of clean,
ing. The removal of ashes In cans
on a long automobile cart, without
emptying them In the street, is advo.

wagons is advisable. The people must
be educated not to throw things into
the street. Splitting should be forbid.

therefore there is no danger whatever
from an overflow from any source.
In order to food surrounding land
the water would have to rise to the
height Of one mile less 700 feet, and
cover an area nine miles wide within
the canyon. The dam will, therefore,
be absolutely safe, for the retaining
wall at the end Of the reservoir, owing
to the structure of the walls Of the
canyon at that point, will bear prac-
tically no weight of the water what
ever.
The effect Of the construction of this
dam cannot well be grasped by per.
sons unfamiliar with what has been
done by way Of development In the
southwest during the last decade The
southwest. in the first place, is pre-
pairing for vast increase Of popula-
ton from Europe once the Panama
canal is finished but 1t is recognized
that without industries only a certain
amount of increase will be accommo-
dated. Arizona has shown a census
increase Of more than 60 per cent.
since 1900. Since the census was ta-
ken boards Of trade in the territory
report heavier inquiries about the ter.
ritory.
Worlds Greatest Chasm.
The Grand canyon of the Colorado Is
the most stupendous chasm in the
world. Standing in the presence of
these precipitous rocks which tower to
heights of 5000 feet, piercing the
clouds above; the abyss yawning at
his feet, the spectator is overpowered
by the immensity of the spectacle
confronting him. There is probably no
other spot on earth where man is more
impressed with his own insignificance
or more overwhelmed with the majesty
of nature. 1t is the grandest of all the
worlds gorges. 1t inspires one with
it's sublimity; it appalls him with it's
heights, its depths, its awful solitude.
The hand of the infinite has chiseled
these rocks into most fantastic forms,
their towering turrets and imposing
minarets standing out boldly in bas
relief against the deep blue of south
ern sky And over all is the illusion
of distance.
One cannot conceive the vastness Of
1t all and is met by series Of sur
prises, as 1t Is borne in upon him that
yonder gorge, or rock, or peak, or cape
lies miles in the distance. At the

]" HERE is gigantic plan pro-
posed to convert the Grand
III lake behind a dam 700 feet
high. Over this dam will flow
a constant stream Of water at the rate
of 10000 or more cubic feet a second,
sufficient to turn all the machinery in
the United States, If not in the world.
In addition to this. the water thus
stored will provide constant and never
failing irrigation for 100000 acres Of
land which Is otherwise hopelessly
waste. The plans are already on pa
per, and there is plenty of money be-
hind the enterprise. All that is lack
Ing Is government consent to ruin in
part the grandest work Of nature in
the world. the Grand canyon, and place
at the bottom Of the great abyss a
lake miles wide and 35 miles long
The canyon proper is miles wide, 13
miles long and a mile deep. so all of
its scenic beauty will by no means be
destroyed. In fact, one standing upon
the rim and looking at the water be-
low, without previous knowledge, will
be unable to tell that man has in any
way tampered with natures great dis
play.
Three states, California Nevada and
Arizona are vtally interested in the
project. and in these states there has
already developed a sentiment which
Will tend to exclude the private con-
struction of the dam and plant, and
vest 1t entirely in the hands of the gov
ernment. At the point in Arizona near
the intersection of the Arizona, Cali
fornia and Nevada state lines, there Is
point In the canyon which is only
$50 feet wide. Here a wing dam can
be constructed at comparatively low
cost which may be built as high as
one pleases without fear of securing
too much water pressure behind II.
The canyon wills are solid rock, as is
the bed. and much blasting will be
necessary In order to get the bottom
of the dam actually below the bed
rock of the stream.
Once constructed, the water will
back within the canyon for 35 miles.
Most of this will be cared for by the
smaller canyons leading off from the
big canyon. which are not included in
the measurement of its 13 miles of
actual length. These small canyons
are also walled by solid rock. and

The Servian Drum,

The men who play the big drums in
the Servian army must have an cas-
Ter lot than the drummers of other
lands; for they do not have to carry
their own drums.
In nearly all cases. instead of being
slung In front of the man who plays
1t, the instrument is put on a small
two-wheeled cart drawn by a large
dog OF course the drummer must
play as he marches; but the dog is
SO well trained that there is no diff

FROM RIDDLESBURG.
The Old Furnace Torn Down and a
New One Being Constructed.

Mr.. EDIToR:-It may be of in.
terest to some of the readers of
the NEWS to learn that on the
morning of February Oath, the
last cast was made in the old
Rlddlesburg furnace which had
been in almost constant operation
for period of forty years. On
the morning when the last cast
was made, nearly every man
about the place cast small piece
of metal to keep as relic of the
old furnace.
Since that morning the old
plant has been entirely torn
down, and much of the work on
the new structure is on the way.
When completed, Rlddlesburg
will have one of the most modern
and up to date furnaces IN the
country. The construction was
given out by contract and Is to be
ready for operation in about SIX
months. There are about 130
men at work on tht job now.
Nearly all of the men employed
when the old furnace was run
ming are employed IN the con
structlon of the new one, but the
wages is only $l.30 a day. VIM.
