Nearly all of the water power develop
ment Of the country is to be found on
and near the oceans-from the Canadian
border down the Atlantic to Georgia with
a spur into Tennessee and Alabama, and
on the Pacific from Washington to Cali
fornia. The great central part of the
country, the mighty valley, has had very
little hydro-electric power until this. the
greatest of all power plants, was con
structed. 1t Is remarkable not only for
damming the largest river of the CONT

hydro-electric power but 1t also is re-

down in the middle of the cheapest steam
coal area in the country 1t is this abil-

Dreamed Of a Dam.

Dreamed OF a Dam. his scheme of
development at Nauvoo that these rapids
should be damned and made to run the
machinery of his colony. One man ac-
tually did construct several wing dams
though his first dam was carried away by
ice. he built again and again. But all
that was in the first half Of the nine
teenth century.
The twentieth century saw a greater
vision. The dreamer this time was an en-
eineer VINO has proved by his works a
right to stand high IN the rank OF his pro-
fesSion. His name Is Hugh l.. Cooper,
and the Keokuk dam always will stand
as monument to his vision, his skill and
his intrepid persistence. Congress grant
ed the right to construct the dam in Feb
ruary. 1901, but Mr.. Cooper was long in
finding the money wherewith to begin the
work After years of interchangeable work
the capital was found, a Boston company
undertaking the construction and the
money coming largely from Canada. Eng
land. France, Germany and Belgium.
The preliminary work was begun in 1910
and in January OF 1911 the actual con-
struction was begun with the building Of
o coffer dam in the frozen river. From
that day on until now the work has not
halted, and it is now practically COM
plete.
Not only the canal, lock and dry dock
other part OF the entire construction from
the beginning was under the careful and
constant supervision Of the chief of en-
gineers of the War Department. The
plans were all submitted and were worked
out in minute detail by army engineers
before the necessary approval was OBJ
tanned for proceeding with the work. IN
spectors were present all the time to see
that the army requirements were actually
carried out in the construction

MACON CHURCH
ROW To PUBLIC
Choirmaster and Ladies' Aid So
ciety Worker Must Face Ordeal
of Open Trial in Suit.

MACON. July 5.-Society and
church folk here are anticipating not
only one of the sharpest legal fights
in the history of Macon courts, by
the airing of sensational charges in
volving the local churches in gen
eral as the aftermath of the First
Christian Church charges, in which
Professor Frank NJ. Charlton, the
choir leader and Mrs. Efie L. Lester,
the secretary Of the Ladies Aid So
ciety, are involved.
The accused persons. upon the rec
ommendation of the elders commit
tee, Sunday morning will be ex
onerated of all charges by the con-
gregation.
Instead of eliminating, this will
really mark the beginning of the con-
troversy, however, for almost i'm
mediately the accused and the ac-
cusers and their friends will array
themselves for a legal fight.
Counsel has already been retained
by both sides, the Testers having
engaged the services of Attorney
Claud Estes to conduct their suit
for Islander, while Attorney Julian
Urquhart has been selected by Mrs.
Jenkins, who preferred the charges.
in anticipation of libel and Islander
suits. Professor Charlton also, it is
said, will be represented by able
counsel of Macon.
Real Sensation to Come.
The real sensation of the entire
affair, it is said, will be produced by
Mrs. Lester, the accused church lead
er, who declares that the charges Of
her neighbor, Mrs. Jenkins. were in
stigated by a spirit of church jeal-
Ousy which has cropped out since
the First Christian Church began its
period of marvellous prosperity.
MY accusers," declared Mrs. Les
ter have been Jealous for a long time
of the prosperity which has attended
our church. They have looked envi-
ously upon the increase in our mem
bership, which has been marvellous,
and they have begrudged us the serv-
ices of Professor Charlton.
Lester Defends Wife.
Lester, who has defended his
wife from the start, upholds her In
the claim that church jealousy has
figured prominently in the charges.
The stated determination of Rev.
Mr.. Anderson, pastor, and Lenoir Err
win. elder and member of the inves-
tigating committee of the First Chris
tian Church, to clear the name Of the
church, either by ousting the aC-
cused parties If guilty, or vindicat-
ing them if not guilty, is said to be
further Indication of the prominent
part which the churches will play in
the coming trial in the courts.
Both Mr. Anderson and Mr. Irwin
declared emphatically to the reporter
that the name of the church must he
preserved by an open and unbiased
investigation of the entire matter. II
the parties are guilty, they declared,
then they must be dealt with accord
ingly, but If they are not guilty of the
charges then they must be vindi-
Gated and the church which holds
their membership indicated also in
open meeting.

young man named Ned appears upon
the road in his car and more COM
pliCations arise.
AS the story goes on. thrilling
romance is developed and by the time
the hero and heroine arrive at the
place of their destination the reader
is on the tiptoe of happy expecta-
ton.
It would not do to tell the whole
story, with the consequences, but 1t
is worth reading, and measures fully
up to what Mrs. Futrelle has already
done in the way of fiction.
Miss Roper Described.
In the first and most pretentious
story attempted by May Futrelle, a
novel called The Secretary of F'riv-
olous Affairs" the heroine is named
for the beautiful Louie Roper, and
that young woman is personally de-
scribed as she is, a charming South
ern belle of the most aristocratic
type. Miss Roper is the niece of the
late General John B Gordon. She
spends her summers at Newport or
some other famous and fashionable
resort and her winters on her peach
farm, near Kingston, where person.
ally she overlooks her orchards, and
assists in the packing of her peaches
in the early summer.
In her series of smart mystery
stories Mrs Futrelle has used the
name of Miss Kit Galloway, of La
Grange daughter of one of the
wealthy financiers Of the State, and
of a former beauty of Atlanta who,
as Miss Fannie Banks, was one of
the most beautiful young girls in her
time In the South.
Visit Atlanta in Fall.
Mrs. Futrelle is at present spending
the summer at her home, Stepping
Stones, at Scltuate, Mass, where she
is engaged with her splendid collec-
ton of dahlias which offer her a rest
and recreation from the busy stress
of a New York season of writing.
In the fall Mrs. Futrelle will prob
ably come to Atlanta to spend the
winter. She is an Atlanta woman.
and was educated in this city, and
developed her first talents of music,
expression and writing in this city
Consequences is the first Of the
series of stories TO exploit the name
of an Atlanta girl, and there are five
more to follow in the course of time

Grand Canyon Will Appear at
 Exposition.

The Grand Canyon of the Colorado river, the greatest scenic wonder of the world and as such the prime tour ist attraction of Arizona, will be re- produced at the Panama Pacific Inter- national exposition at San Francisco by the Santa Fe railroad according to Dr.. Frederick Vining Fisher, who will talk and show motion pictures at the chamber of commerce Friday night. The reproduction will be made at a cost of 300, ,000S.
 Comparatively few people have seen the Grand Canyon because of it's re- moteness from center of population. The visitors to it are increasing year by year, but there are many who can never see it.
 Since the masses cannot go to the canyon, the canyon will be taken to them. The Santa Fe proposes to du- plicate the sensations which a person experiences when he stands on the edge of the tremendous gorge, mile deep and l5 miles across.
 This will be done by building con- posite scenery in huge building. The beholder will stand on the veranda of | the Fl Tovar hotel and gaze into a real gorge. which will be blended im- perceptbly into giant black drop, so
 lighted as to give the effect of great distances
