he idea of mobiliZing a company, with automobiles, on a war footing. Mr Jorge Resa, representative of Dodge Brothers motor car, consented to furnish the number of cars neces- sary for the transportation of the cadets.
 When it became known among some of the private owners of mo- GOT cars that the Military school would undertake the manoeuvre on Saturday the 2Sth of April last. they very periodically offered their CO., operation, placing their machines at
 he disposition of the military com mand of the school. The principal object of the manoeuvre was to try put the authorization, decentralization md transport of troops in automo- piles, and the result was amply sat isfactory to the management of the school, as well as to those of us who had occasion to witness the man. 0euvre, which was carried out in the most perfect order and very rapidly (50 seconds in each of the operations of embarking and disembarking) As soon as the destination had been reached. the cadets performed some military eNolutionS under Captain del Pogo, who was in command of the company.
 Tt may be mentioned that neither going nor coming did the cars sui fer any accidents or get out of or der. Upon the return to the school, Colonel Quiroga, in charge of the establishment, invited all of the chauffeurs to the sub-officers' Casino where drinks were served, and in brief and patriotic sentences, he thanked them for their enthusiastic assistance. Before closing, it is our duty to call attention to the very noble service performed by MT. Jorge Besa, which is an honor to him as a citizen and as a patriot, he having undertaken the arduous task of get ting the motor cars needed by the school"

directions and distances to the water ing places is an interesting and prac tical project recently undertaken by the United States geological survey, department of the interior. The proj- ect involves also the work of making accurate maps showing the locations of the watering places, of preparing guides describing them and giving the distances between them, of selecting we'll sites, and of developing watering places (so far as money available will permit) in localities where water is most needed and where the geologic investigations indicate that under ground supplies can be obtained. It is expected that this work will help to expedite the discovery and develop ment of the rich mineral deposits in parts of these regions. It will, or course, also be valuable in other re- spects.
 In recent years the water supply geologists of the geological survey have developed trustworthy methods of locating ground water in arid re- gions from surface indications and of estimating the depth to water and the approximate annual yield of the un- derground reservoirs. These methods will be applied and further developed in connection with the survey of des- ert watering places.
 A number of survey parties are now being organized in Washington and will in a few weeks be at work in the most arid parts of Arizona, California and Nevada. Each party will consist of a geologist and one or more as sistants and will be provided with a motor car and camping outfit
