LOTTIE ANTICIPATES HER COMING OUT
 PARTY

Sweating blood again, according to General Agent Murray A. Pennock of the Al G. Barnes circus that took up its winter quarters in Phoenix early this week, the behemoth is fairly rev cling in gory shambles and occasion ing no end of concern to the manage ment and attendants. Every time that Lottie, the bloodsweating behe-- moth, becomes excited she opens up her pores and pours, and right now she is excited at the prospect of leav- ing her cage.
 Lottie knows perfectly we'll the sea- son has come to an end, Pennock says, for she has been on the road for years and she knows the signs. She stays in her cage, never leaving it for a minute, from March to November, and then the big annual event of her tough old life transpires and she perspires. It's big event, too, for the entire circus company when Lottie emerges from her cage. Even the public de- mands to be in on it and the circus management has promised to amour ce her coming out party. Lottle weighs only four tons and she is IA feet long; right now she is IA feet of bloody sweat; and it takes consider able preparation to push her out.
 "We have to build Gargantuar bridge" Pennock says, "from the wa. gon-bed to the ground, in order to sup. port her tremendous weight in transit from her buggy" and she is apt tc bolt. Don't ever think that hippo potamus can't run! If the bridge should break she would go on teal that no brick wall in Phoenix would stop, but you can be sure we'll takt care about that.
 "Lottie ran amuck once in Pen nsylvania tank town and lifted bo. car off the track while going under it and she might have been going vel if the Hon. MT. Rink, who was hel keeper then, hadn't caught up with hel in an auto and called her name in thu gentlest way. She stopped to let hin pet her on the bloody neck and thei followed him meekly back to tn grounds five miles away"
 Behemoths, Pennock says, usuall. are called "hippopotamuses" now adays, although they are called 'behe moths' in Holy Writ, Job XL, 15-2A He describes them as a sub-order o ungulate mammals, of the artiodacty group. X

WATER POWER RESOURCES
 OF THE UNITED STATES

The United States Geological Sur vey, Department of the Interior, has prepared map showing by States the distribution of the water-power re- sources of the United States in horse power per square mile. On this map the relative potential water-power re- sources of each State are indicated by shading in one of six symbols, and the average horsepower of the State per square mile is shown by numbers. This average ranges from 6.2 horse power per square mile for the State of Florida to 125,O horsepower, per square mile for the State of Washington. The shading indicates at a glance the parts of the United States in which water-power resources are most abundant.
 The information given on the map was compiled from census of the pc tential water power in the United States prepared by the United States Geological Survey in 1908 and revised and published by the Department of Agriculture in Senate Documents 316 64th Congress, 1st session, entitled "Electric Power Development in the United States, 1916." The figures used show the maximum horsepower which is here defined as the amount of power that is available for six months of the year. E.

 The new industry to be introduced into Arizona is that of harvesting the rattlesnake crop which grows wild in the mountains and deserts of the cac. tus state. Dr. Goldman, who is the owner of laboratories engaged in the manufacture of rattlesnake oil at $2.5O an ounce, writes to inquire when the open season on rattlesnakes is or in Arizona.
