Constructed In order that some 000,- 000 persons residing In the southwest ern part o f the city might “ drink co- piosly and have more water for Sat urday night.’' this tunnel Is horse shoe In shape, lined with concrete to cover all Jagged projections and re move nil resistance to water flow, haa a finished diameter o f 12 feet.

According to the city engineer, ap proximately 1.400.000 pounds o f dyna mite were used in blasting. 400.000 cars o f rock excavated and elevated to the surface and 500.000 bags o f cement used in lining the tunnel.

This Is El Capitan— the word a probable derivation or corruption o f the India’ name “ Tu-tock-ah-nu lah” — said to be the largest, loftiest, might iest. most glorious rock In creation. The significance o f this statement ia apparent when one understands that the alinost-perpendlcular face o f this stupendous pile rises 3.600 feet, or nearly three-quarters o f a mile, toward the blue sky above from the water In the tiny river at Its base, while Its two side walls have an area o f be tween three and four hundred acre*. Opinion differs concerning Its or igin. Great floods rushing down the valley for long |>eriods when the Sierra Nevada mountains were in the mak ing may have scoured away the dirt and debris nnd left this immovable rock. Again, a glacier o f untold sise and age may have ground Its way down this valley, destroying every thing In Its’ patW save this Indestruc tible giant. Or the bottom of the val ley may have been sunk by an earth quake. The Impression which this monster rock makes upon one varies with tho moods o f the weather. A pale moon light gives to It an almost ghostly out line o f overwhelming Immensity with a somewhat spooky personality. (8. lilt.
