OF the historic points of the Rio de la Plata.
ana as we go by 1t we recall the fact that
ms same tour was first made by the white
man who was the first to set foot unon the
soil of the continent of North America
Sebastian Cabot in 1926 plowed his wav
through this same labyrinth of islands and
after long voyage on the Parana reached
the Paraguay and sailed Up it to a noint
some distance beyond Asuncion.
The Steamers of the Paracu,x
If Sebastian Cabot could take a trip on
the boats which now sail up the Paraguay
he would think them more wonderful than
anything he met with in his travels. His
voyage was made in a sailing boat Ours
is in comforta bic steamer of 500 tons. If
took him monthst to sail up the river. We
make the trip in six days. His lights were
tallow dips, ours are incandescent globes
lit by electric dynamos. The Saturno was
built in Glasgow and it is as comfortab,a
as the average passenger steamer of the
great lakes or the Mississippi. The cabins
are good and the dining room is like a mar
lor. The fare is not expensive $50 paving.
Tor the round trip, or an average of about
50 gold per day. If
The meals are good, but the Yankee stono
ach finds it hard to accustom itself to the
times at which they are served. The first
breakfast given on vessels is nothing but
three swallows Of coffee and crust of
bread and butter. At IL am. a real break
fast is served, and ats pm. comes dinner
Sandwiched between luncheon and bedtime
there is tea at 3 pm. and at 8 pm
Dinner is the chief event of the day The
passengers all dress for it. The men put
on their black clothes and most of the Wo-
men wear evening dresses.
There is better form in dressing among
the passengers than in manners. Some of
the men who wear kid gloves all day and
who put on black coats for dinner eat with
their knives and tuck their napkins in at
the collar as though they were babies and
needed bibs. The tocthpick is universally
used between the courses. The men smoke
cigarettes through the meals and with their
coffee. One old Argentine papa, who has two
pretty knife-eating daughters, drinks his
soft-boiled eggs out of glass. He also pol
ishes his plate with his napkin at every
course. But 1 don't blame him for that,
as 1 do that myself. It is a necessity on

highlands which crosses Brazil form the
back and upper rim of the shoe, while the
slightly sloping plains of Patagonia bound
it on the south In it are included the best
of the Argentine, all of Uruguay ana Para
quay and large portions of Brazil and Bo-
livia. The most of it has been built up by
the Parana or Rio de la Plata system and
today these great rivers are still at their
great work of earth building.
The Rio De La Plata
You see this plainly in the Rio de la Plata
proper. 1t is more Il great bay of liquid
mud than river. 1t is 120 miles wide at
the Atlantic and narrows down to twenty
nine miles at BuenOs Ayres, which is $50
miles inland. The width at Montevideo is
about sixty-fve mics The Rio de Ia Plata
is so full of silt mud that it discolors
the Atlantic for many miles out at sea.
We noticed the change in the color of the
ocean long before we entered it's mouth
and the water seemed to grow thicker as
We sailed to Bucnos Ayres. The channel is
fast filling up with sandy mud, and the
EadS Jetty system is proposed. AS it is
now, the rivers bring down a quarter of a
million tons of mud a day, and the sed-
ment Is so great that all of the water used
by BuenoS Ayres is filtered by the city.
1t took our steamer twelve hours to cross
the Rio de la Plata to Montevideo, and
from there to Buenos Ayres the ride re-
quired one night. At Buenos Ayres the
passengers are not now taken ashore as
formerly, In carts or the backs of men.
The Port of Buenos Ayres has in fact. as
fine docks and quays as any city of the
world. 1t has within the past ten years
spent $3O,OO0,0O0 gold upon their construc-
ton, and ocean steamers drawing seventeen
feet sail right into great walled tanks
along which the chief railroads have
tracks; SO that the wool, grain, hides sheep
and cattle can be transferred directly from
the cars TO the steamers which are to take
them to Europe.
Up the Parana.
1t is at these docks that you get steam
ers which carry you far UP the rivers into
the interior. There are river boats of all
kinds lying at the wharves. Some have
just come in loaded with oranges, wood
hides and wool and others are just starting
out. There are sailing boats as well as
steamers, and You soon appreciate that the

miles. At Buenos Ayres 1 was almost two
hundred miles from the sea, and in coming
from there to Asuncon on the Parana and
Paraguay rivers l Travelled 1,115 miles On
the hrst day out we steamed by the mouth
of the Uruguay river in entering the Pa

we came into the Paraguay river upon
which 1 Travelled more than 300 miles. The
Paraguay Is still uavigable by small steam
ers for Loo miles north of this point, and
just opposite it is the mouth of the Pilco-
mayo, which rises in the Bolivian Andes
and in tOrtuous course flows through
1,Jo0 miles of uneXplored wilds before it
ernpties into the Paraguay. The Parana it
self is over 1000 miles long. 1t rises in
the mountains Of Brazil and flows a dis
tanco of mole than 200 miles before it
swallows no the Paraguay a about 800
miles from its mouth.
The Hasin of Plate
The river system of the Plate. or of the
Rio de Ia Plata, is one of the most wonder
full of the world. The volume Of the stream
is greater than that of the Mississippi. It
is surpassed only by the Amazon. 1t drains
a basin more than half as big as the whole
United States, and one which in fertility of
soil and salubrity OF climate is only sur
passed by the basin of the Mississippi The
basin of the Plate is over 1000 miles long.
1t Is bigger than the basin of the Mssis-
slppl, and 1t is a question whether it has
not more cultivabla territory. Upon il tens
OF millions Of cattle and sheep are pas
tured and its wheat fields compete with
ours in the markets of Europe. 1t has the
most extensive plains of the globe and it
Is a vast eXpanse Of fairly good land
II IS a Whit mans country. The basin
OF the Amazon is tropical and malarious
Ihat Of the Plate is largely in the tenn
pef@te zone. Its northern parts are like
Louisiana or Florida. and in the south fine
summer climate is as temperate as that of
our middle states
1t Is the Mississippi basin reversed. the
source OF its rivers being in the hot country
