When Mrs. Harold l". McCormick, a daughter of John D. Rockefeller. went shopping one day recently in this city with a woman friend, a little incident occurred which shows the simple mun- uer in which she regards her father's great wealth. The two women entered a Sixth avenue furniture establishment when Mrs. McCornrick's friend took a fancy to a pretty writing desk. for which neither the would-be purchaser nor her corrrpuniorr had suiiicrerri. mon- ey within :18 to buy. Mrs. McCormick, however, suggested to the proprietor of the store that If ire would send the desk to the oui~of- town hours or her friend the latter would forward the balance due as soon as possible. The denier very politely. but also very decidedly informed the women that he could not do us they asked. “But." he said, “if either of you ladies will give the office address of your hus- burrd. father or any business man with whom yell are acquainted in this city. the matter may possibly be arranged." "way,” said the daughter of the great petroleum magnate, “my father has an ofllcc on Broadway. Possibly we could get the money there." “Who Is your father. madam? quer- icd the dealer. “His name is Rockefeller, John D. Rockefeller—41c is in the oil undwwell, a lot of other business." The merchant gasped and looked at Mrs. McCormick in amazement. “John I). Rockefeller your father? Well," said the dealer. "he is good for $1 and your friend will get the desk tOmor» row."

August 9.—-Aborrt 100 men are now out as the result of a sympathetic strike among the building trades here, brought on by trouble which Contractor Andrus had with one of his men over the small sum of 75 cents. The master builders at a meet- ing held this afternoon discussed the idea of a general lockout similar to that in New York. The cause of the trouble was the refusal of a men unused liutler to ac- cept his pay after he ‘was discharged. as he claimed that Ire should have 75 cents more for time lost in going from one Job to another. not knowing at the time that he was discharged. The bill of 75 cents has grown to one of $31.50 Since last Saturday.

The occasional great floods of the waters of the Missouri and the Missls-, sippi Valleys always direct attentionl to the possibility of their prevention by the construction of irrigation reser- volns. All ilre west, in fact the whole nation. is interested in too plan to have the government build a system of storage reservoirs near the tread wat- ers of streams to mitigate floods and likewise to reclaim desert land. As the government controls rivers. it could appropriately undertake the diversion of superfluous water into reservoirs. where it could be later used for irrign tion. Moreover the great area of ir- dary r scrvoir. Fancy a single irri- twenty iilion acres along the water shed of e Missouri and its tributar- ies. This single operation would air sorb the flood of a great riv r. The nation is certainly interests in the undertaking of such work which would probably end the floods that cause such loss of life and property. The water which now swells the Missouri, itsiri. butarics and at times the MlsSisslppi to undue proportions would be diverted for use in transforming deserts into gardens At the same time the gov eminent could depend on making the work pay itself. The Doom of the Desert Fifteen years of work of exploration survey and investigation by the engi- neers of the government at an expendi- ture of a million and a half dollars show that the Great American desert can largely be brought under cultiva- tion by irrigation systems and made great as that of the whole country to day. Not only this. but it will supply to support a population probably as oportunlty for the working of the thousands of ranges of barren moun- tains in that vast region for their sin pendous stores of precious metals and useful minerals that have merely been guessed at as yet. The throbbing East, with its manu- factories of necessities of all kinds, would profit no less than the West by the opening up of these lands. And all of i.,hem experience shows lndubita- bly, are so rich, when cultivated intel- ligently with adequate water supplies. that their settlers would be able to pay the entire cost of the most extensive irrigation systems in very few years and never be distressed in conse- quence. it was a fortunate day for the nation when the late Major John W. Powell. recognizing the vast water, land and mineral resources of the Rocky Moun- tsln region, insisted upon adequate government appropriations for irriga- tion law. which he foresaw certain to come. The result is that the Geologi- cal Survey is today a splendidly equip-m ped organization, carrying forward with rapidity the great Conquest of the Desert. ‘ GUY E. MITCHELL. assaults announce Run.
