RIVER iN PLAGE OF A SWAMP Remarkable Upheaval Suid to E e Without Precedent in History of British Erst Africa. The bursting of a swamp 2. miles from Xairobi, writes The Li-r.-im I>aiiy Mail correspondent, is withour precedent in the Iii tvry <>i tli<* Kriiish occupation of Kenya eo'eny. ton;!<Tiy British Kast Africa. Whore was a placid swamp covered with papyrus grass, there ?s now a permanent valley with a turbulent iver, llowing down the center. In the swamp was a floating papyrus mattress nany feet thick with aoout tec: ot water nentacn. imibankments wore made and a bridire erected carrying the road across the swamp. and when the Tkika railroad was- constructed a sub>taniial bridge was also erected across this swamp fit a point a few hundred yards below the i'6'Ail bridge. Now many square miles of swamp water have been r-leased. The effect was a break-up of the papyrus like The smashing of a log jam. The weight of the water wiped out the main and minor road bridges and seriously damaged the railway bridge, curing off from civilization the whole of tile huge agricultural area of the Kenya province around Mount Kenya. Earthquake shocks were exp<*riei:ced in this district recently, and ihe theory of the government officials is that these caused the sudden collapse of the support of the swamp, that support probably taking the form of a rocky roof of huge underground cavern*. No floods below the valley are re ported. and tne-volume ot water musi. Therefore, have gone underground leaving behind a new arfd unexplored declivity many miles long, which may be the resting place of minerals or remains of scientific importance. , PUTS FAITH IN YOUNG MEN Successful Merchant Tells of System Which Has Helped Him in His Business Career. " It takes time ro lo anything, therefore, time is an important factor in all accomplishment.'!. ;But the idea {.hat there is an ajre limit on ability is headed for the discard. Where they are given a free rein, young men? men under 40, and even under ? are coming: to the front in surprising: number. A man who is noted 1'of* his ability to make successes of young men said recently: "The secret of my ability to hold men. and always to have a man to put in a responsible position is my policy of watching the young man closely. J keep an eye on all of them, and before they realize I know who they are. I am calling them into my office and asking for their advice. If their advice sounds at all plausible, 1 give them carte blanche to go ahead aad work out the plan they suggest. -Often it almost staggers them, but mor* often than not they make good. Too few of us realize the dormant ability we have around our business in the shape of young accountants, stenographers, clerks or young salesmen."?Forbes Magazine. The Dianemoicao. This singular name is given by the inventor, Eduardo Torresty Qnevedo. r Spaniard, ro an apparatus intended to take the place of stenography in \ reporting speeches. Tiie apparatus, which consists simply of a series of little bells, requires the co-operation of eight or ten writers. Each writer takes a single phrase from the spea leer's mouth. At the tinkie of a beil on his left he begins to write what he hears. The bell on his right arrests hiui and sets his neighbor at work. By the time the circuit is made the first writer is ready for another phrase. Afterward the phrases, which are numbered in their order of taking, are reunited to form the entire report. Tried at the Athenee, in Madrid, the , dianemologo is said to have given satisfactory results.?Washington Star. i i: rr tj * i_ I ~ ~ a ?.

The happiest people are those wh.1 | ,have to work; sometimes they dr^'t l know it, but it is so. When th'rs :e-'i porter lived in Charleston he would f often stroll down to the batterv an.I jj the docks at dusk. It would ? c. p.!' ^ , > about tne time woiKing men were un 5 their way home for the night. Com- s ing in with their fishing bcits were | the "toilers of the deep" who h:td f ;_cen cut with their tackle.

Jj deep was sweet to the listening c ur ? unon the shore. Those men were ^ tl happy; they worked, and they were J f going rhome to rest. ^ It takes a tiix-d man to enjoy rest; a a loafer never feels that enjoyment, '{j Those men sinking on the water had jjj something to rsske them feel good; | they had the satisfaction that conies jjj from a knowledge of duty dnne, and | they had something to lock forward ? to?"the light at home." Seme of | you know what it is: "The light at'5 home, hew bright it beams, when ev-| i 12 1 ? emr.g snaces a.'ounu us wiivii.c through t:ic lattice far it gleams, to,| love and rest and comfort call.";jj What docs the loafer know of such ? rest?. How could he appreciate it? I Kence the advice here to pitch in and ? a *:o to work. Quit murmuring and g complaining. The busy man has no J time for pessimism?that's the loaf- ?j er's jcb, the idler's task, whether it Jj be "the idle rich" or the idle poor. :S Generally the working man is the op-; g timist, tjnt is the contented work-'? ing man, the man who realizes that ^ 5 the prayer, "Give me neither poverty | nor riches" was a just prayer; be- " cause he knows that riches within it- $ self can never bring happiness, and I that poverty, however respectable, is ?j veuy inconvenient. |g But sometimes it is hard to Keep | from complaining:, when you turn | from the suffering in your own home S and sec the happiness in another !3 home. Although you realize that s things could be worse with you and 5 thai you have been told that others j have it just as hard or worse, still f vcu can not understand why youfr t loved one should be allowed to suf-g fer while others* have their cup of | happiness filled to the brim, day af- p ter dav. month after month, vear af- * 3 ter year. But on the other hand, even 4 as "each heart knoweth its own sor- | row," and doesn't know of the sor- J row of other hearts, and as every 1 man tr.nks i;is lot is the hardest be- ; cause he can not see the hard lot of , others, it mav be, as manv believe, < that "there is a divinity that shapes g out end's," after all. ;| Then, a grain, it may be that to 9 those who are having their feasting 3 and riotous living now, there will surely con?e a time when they will call on even the rocks to hide them' from the wath that shall overwhelm ^ them as a storm sweeps with its ac- f cumulated fury and engulfs the vie- c tims in its relentless course of ue- j; struction; that there will iome a time whe n there v.iil be an end to many a Bels'nazzar feast and the scenes of ? Sodom and Gomorroh be reenacted } nearer home; when those who thus "livr. and every fear is calmed,"' T shall die and wake inx hell, nut cnly ( doomed but damned."
