Quick Sailing Down Stream by an Adven.
furious Exploring Party.
To give you an idea of the number of
the rapids from the head of the Colorado
river to this point, near the mouth Of the
Little Colorado river, a distance of about
900 miles, l will Say that there are just
200 rapids, not counting small draws or
rifles, and from Lees Ferry to this point,
distance CT eighty miles, there are 100
rapids. We have run the greater part Of
this 100 and portrayed but few, and over
many of them our boats have danced and
Jumped at the rate of fifteen miles per
hour, and over some, by actual measure
ment, at the. rate Of twenty miles per
hour for half mile at time. Standing
in the bow of one of the boats as she goes
through one of these shutes, with first
the bow and then the stern jumping into
the air as she shoots from wave to wave,
with the spray of the breakers dashing
over ones head, is something the excite
ment of which can only be understood by
being experienced. i SO
That part of Marble canyon from Point
Retreat for forty miles down to the mouth
of the Little Colorado river is far the
most beautiful and most interesting can
yon we have yet passed through. AT
Point Retreat the marble walls stand up
perpendicularly 800 feet from the waters

from wall to wall, while the river in
places at this stage of water is not over
sixty feet wide. The marble rapidly rises
till it stands in perpendicular cliffs, zoe
to 800 feet high, colored with all the tints
of the rainbow, but mostly red. In many
places toward the top it is honeycombed
with caves, caverns, arches and grottoes
with here and there natural bridge left
from one crag to another, making a most
grotesque and wonderful picture as oul

der. The Kansas City Times
referring to the matter says
"The action of the justice of the
peace in admit ing James L Sheetz,
the slayer ofJohn Lewton at Liberty,
TO bail can not by the most indulgent
be regarded in any other light than
as an outrage upon public morality
and the laws of Missouri. The Times
is not in the habit oftryiDg such cases
in advance and does not propose now
to do SO, but the law is plain aud
Justice Gray had no discretion. The
coroner procured warrant for mur-
der in the first degree. Without wait
ing even for a preliminary examira-
ZION, Justice Gray admitted the &C
cused to bail in the irsignifcant sum
of 81, 800. Under the circumstances
the justice had no more authority
to admit bail at all than ne had to
sentence the accused to capital punish
ment. The high position that
Nc. Shee had he'd in t e COM
munity was no part of the clse for
him, and the various bad circumstan-
ces educed were no part of the case
against him. All the justice had prop
erly before him was that homicide
had been committed, that the coroner's
jury had indicated the slayer and that
the coroner had procured warrant for
murder in the first degree. The Jaws
of Missouri, as of all civilized COM
monwealths, make murder the first of
crimes against the person and unbail-
able. Public opinion will not pardon
the unaccountable ignorance or the
unaccountable lapse in sense of duty
of the justice.
