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.

inaidn z.merdiu mines
The Conquistadores, when they
seized the rich emerald mines of Colombia.
forcing the native Indians
to work them, suspected the existence
of other mines. After a search of
three years in Colombia. Christopher
Dixon, engineer for the Colombian Emerald
syndicate, srfys he has located
som*1 of the ancient mines hidden from
the profiteering Spaniards hy the natives.
The emeralds of Colombia are the
finest, but not the biggesr. in the world,
and the country produces more than
all the rest of the" world combined.

depth of that remarkable depression i
is less than has hitherto been sup- ,

to loaf he would get into . <r.r. kind {
of business. It is a puzzle h:>\v some |
loafers live?those who don't seem i
to have any visible means of sup-.s
port. The chronic loafer talks.
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

would sing as tl^eir boats glided ove: ?
the water and their sails or oa; |
brought them nearer home. The mu- f

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."
