The walk back in the afternoon was
very wearisonne, the thermometer stand
ing at ia degrees. had a, quart OF
water in my canteen at a temperature
OF 105 degrees, but valued that hot
water very highly.
The accompanying map will show the
route taken, the courses of the two
streams and the probable course where
not surveyed.
We have now found the total amount
OF water flowing into the Salton basin.
1t is fresh and comes through the two
old branches of the New river, and at
the time of the last expedition the total
discharge was 30l5 cubic feet per
second.
respectfully suggest that thorough
investigation be made OF the New river
region in Lower California to as far
north as the lake near Indian Wells,
and also of Hardy's Colorado, to deter
mine whether or not there is any chance
of the water from the Gulf of California
ever entering the desert. The question
of the Colorado river ever forming bar
and changing its course to the west
should at the same time be examined.

NEED MORE WATER.
The Soldiers Home Supply Said to Be
Insufficient.

Insufficient.
A HERALD reporter was told yesterday
that the question Of water supply for
the Soldiers Home, near Santa Monica,
was becoming serious matter. 1t is
said that an appropriation of $4,000 for
the development of water in Vaudeville
cafion has almost been exhausted. The
streams discovered there by boring flow
strongly for while, but, in mining par
lance, peter out. 1t is claimed that the
supply of water is now unequal to the
demand, and that in consequence the
sewerage of the home is in a very un-
satisfactory condition.

The Press and the MethOdiStS.

hdiSis lily NttT
The press was one of the topics con-
sidered by the Methodist Ecumenical
council at Washington, and the dis
cusSion brought out some eloquent and
significant tributes to the influence and
power of secular newspapers. The
Rev. DIR. Hughes of London, who de-
livcred the essay that preceded the
debate, said: '.It has been claimed
that the newspaper is mightier than
the pulpit, and perhaps that estimate
is not too high This is, indeed, Il
remarkable concession. Although the
newspapers were criticised by II num-
Der of the delegates participating
i'll the discussion, it was admitted on
all hands that the powers of journal
ism are enormous and irresistible, and
closer union of the press and pulpit
was generally and warmly favored.
The point was made by DR.. Hughes
that the press had attained its marvel
Gus potcntiality without the aid of the
| church, and that it rarely received the
consideration of evangelical organiza-
tiOnS. A similar failure of duty can
not be imputed To the press. 1t is the
| helper of every great moral movement,
and assists by its influence every re-
form which tends to make the world
better, and thus furthers what ought
to he the aim of all religious bodies.
While the church and the press are
both Interested in bringing humanity
up to better and Il higher plane, II is
| not too much TO SAY that the press can
| he of more assistance to the church in
the accomplishment of this mission
than the church can he To the press.
However, the unity of action which the
| Methodist council advocates is to he
greatly desired, and the press will not
stand in the way of II thoroughly har-
moniouS relation between the two
| forces.
The Century has had in preparation
for Il year or two u series of illustrated
| articles on ''Tlc Jews in New York, =
written hy DIR. Richard Whcatlev.
They deal with many phases of the
subject, including occupations, festival,
and f"aslS, family life and customs,
charities, clubs, amuscmrnts, cduca-
ton, etc. DIR. Whratlcy has gathered
the materials for these papers in long
and close study, and he has had the
assistance of several wcll-known
Hebrews.

The one who wrote "A Shred Of Lace"
laid the scene of his novel principally
on the banks OF the Hudson, between
Poughkeepsie and West Point. Now,
the Hudson is all very well in its way,
and writer, Of course, may lay his
scenes where be chooses, but 1t strikes
us that the Minnesota author should
have made "A Shred of Lace" a Min
nesota story and give some space to
Minnesota scenery. For where can one
find scenery more beautiful, more
picturesque than that which greets the
eye Of the nature loving traveller as he
passe through " The Star Of the North?"
In some places it rises to actual gran
deur, and for wildness of character
cannot be surpassed. 70 understand
and appreciate this more fully. the

For we're rebels in Old Glasheen.

And we swore revenge for the brothers tate

To the banished from Old Glasheen.
And ever and aye We'll be true to thee;
Your sorrows are ours Rosaleen:
Cur dream and our hope is to set you free
NThe. boys Of your own Glasheen!
