But ssltcn Lake Win Not Be Used for a
Reservoir.
OF all the rot which has been printed
about the Colorado desert, says the
Yuma Times, that contained in a dis
patch from New York to the San Fran
cisco Chronicle of May eth is certainly
the worst. The information concerning
a sale Of its lands by the Southern Pa
cifc company Is right enough, but the
writer chose to branch out into the un-
explored realms of speculation, and the
result ia something astounding.
1t Is seriously stated that the syndi-
este OF purchasers Of the railroad lands
are going to make storage reservoir
out of Salton lake, water to be supplied
by means OF canal taken from the
Colorado river 100 miles north of Yuma.
AS Salton sink is 1858 feet below sea
level, it is an interesting question as to
how weter viii be got out after being
run in.
The facts in the case are that the
Southern Pacific company has sold its
lands, embracing every other section
for distance of 20 miles each aide of it's
road, to the Colorado River Irrigation
company. This latter corporation is
engaged in the perfectly legitimate
plan of reclaiming portion OF
the country 100 miles westward
from Yuma by means of large, canal
from the Colorado river. Some Of the
rsilroad sections are OF course in Salton
sink, but the new owners do not attach
much value to them. The canal heading
Ia about 10 miles from Yuma instead OF
100, on the western side Of the river and
is intended TO irrigate lands in California
only.
1t is extremely unfortunate that such
wild statements referred to. gain cur.
rency. There is probably more misin-
formation afoat concerning the country
west of Yuma than of any other section
Of the United States. The Chronicle did
q good thing by pointing out some Of
the abaurdities contained in the dispatch
quoted.

WASHINGTON, Sept 19.--George Wash

tional capitol 100 years ago. The event
meant much more than any like cere-
mony that had preceded it. The
federal constitution had been adopt
ed. Two congresses had been
held. Washington had been reelected.
The republic which was to stand
forth before posterity's eyes as
the grandest achievement of all the
ages was an accomplished fact.
Since then n century has passed. The
nation has borne fruit according to its
promise. The thirteen states have
grown to forty-four; the few million of
inhabitants to nearly seventy. But
three wars have disturbed the country's
peace since then, and in all of these
the union triumphed.
The air was filled with the mel
ody of church bells which rang
throughout the city in honor of the
capitofs centennial. Every body was
astir early and the streets were filled

line over which the parade marched

ASHLAND, Wis, Sept. 1s.-A prayer

northern Wisconsin The forest flames
continue to sweep everything be-

ing in from all directions fleeing for
their lives. AT noon Sunday the people
were called from worship by fire
alarms. The cinders and smoke be-
came almost binding all over the city.
Over u thousand volunteers were added
to the fire department to check the
flames which rushed in on the city from
the Odanah Indian reservation.
At 3 o'clock there was a cry of despair
among the people living near the Mill
waukee, Lake Shore Il Western railway
shops. The waterworks had given out
and there was no water. The chemical
engines were brought, but twas useless
to try to stop the flames, as high gale
of wind was blowing. There are few
wells in the city. The coal sheds
caught fire and plucky engineers soon
had the thirty dead locomotives fred
up, running all rolling stock to the
| lake front. Household goods have been
| burned and over hundred families are
| already homeless.
| The sun was almost obscured by the
heavy clouds of smoke and cinders.
| Twenty men were overcome in fighting
flames and taken to the hospital.

like straw. No rain has fallen
since July 10. Three families near
Marengo have perished. There was
no help to go to them. The firemen,
with wet sponges and goggles, cannot
remain long IN the intense heat and
smoke. Settlers arriving have pitiable
stories TO tell, and are being cared for
by those who still have houses. One
man named Agstron was driven crazy
by the loss of his wife and family of
two children. A woman and baby
were picked up in an insensible condi-
tion Sunday night near White River
road. The child died soon after arriv-
ing here. The mother is in delirium
and it is supposed that her husband
perished at Odanah reservation.
AS near. as can be estimated fire now
covers nearly 200 square miles and is
sweeping north. Damage to standing
pine will be heavy and approximate
not less than S5000000. Indians are
camping on raft in Bad river and
hemmed in with an archway of flames

We're characterized by Bishop Newton

reviewed the life and teachings of

given to the world no helpful litera-

no social system and no heroic
virtues. On the banks of the Ganges,
Bishop Newman said, was a religion

of women, children thrown into the
