all the way from the Gulf to st. Paul.
What this means can now be realized

being now organized, with others to
come In the near future.
One has but to pass through food
on the lower Mississippi to realize what
adequate protection from the high wa
ters Of the river means TO the dweHers
Of the States along Its borders. While
1t Is not expected that the overflow can
ever be entirely prevented, it is certain
that with the proper attention, much
the greater part of the damage can
be averted. 1t is no exaggeratlon to
say that the money loss which, from
first to last, has come from Mississippi
floods, will run up into hundreds Of
millions.
1t need not be wondered that the peo-
pie of the lower Mississippi, with those
Of the higher waters as well, for that
matter, are thankfully regarding the
work inaugurated by the government.

ture open lines of commerce to new re
gions along the Pacific coast. All the
great water courses, from the Rockies
to the Alleghenies, and from the great
lakes to the Gulf, are tributary to this
noble stream, which thus becomes the
common outlet for more than two-thirds
Of the arabic area of the United States
1t is small wonder, then, considering
the possibilities of this magnificent riv-
er, that there is great interest In the
work the Government has undertaken
In an effort to restore it to the position
1t once occupied In the commercial
world. 1t is comparatively but few
years ago that the Mississippi was the
dominating influence In all business re-
lations between the two great sections
Of the country. The advent of great
trunk lines of railroads saw the diver
sion of the river traffic to other chan
nels and the days of boating seemed
forever past. The river was neglected
and gradually has fallen into compara-
tive disuse. That it will see the return
of the old days. with the enlargements
and benefits Of modern ideas, is the
hope Of all residnts of the great cities
which rest upon Its banks-a hope
which seems about to be realized.

younger members of the church nav
ing rebelled against the authority Of
the elders. and the result had been
the secession Of certain number OF
the malcontents, who had left Utah
and become Gentiles.
Among these had been Drebber
and Stangerson, and no one knew
whittier they had gone.
Rumor reported that Drebber had
managed to convert large part oi
his property into money, and that ne
had departed a wealthy man, while
his companion, Stangerson, was com
paratively poor. There was no clew
at all however, as to their where
abouts.
Many a man, however vindictlve
would have abandoned all thought Of
revenge in the face Of such a dir
fculty, but Jefferson Hope never fal'
tered for a moment.
with the small competence he pos
sessed, eked out by such employment
as he could pick up, he travelled from
town to town through the United
States in quest Of his enemies.
Year passed into year, his black
hair turned grizzled, but still he wan
dered on, a human bloodhound, with
his mind wholly set upon the one OBJ
iect upon which he had devoted his
life.
At last his perseverance was re-
warded. It was but glance of face
in window, but that one glance told
him that Cleveland, in Ohio, pos
sessed the men In whom he was In
pursuit OF.
He returned to the miserable lodg'
ings with his plan of revenge all ar
ranged. It cnanced, however that
Drebber, looking from his window,
had recognized the vagrant in the
street, and had read murder in his
eyes.
He hurried before Justice of the
Peace. accompanied by Stangerson,
who had become his private secre-
tary. and represented to him that
they were in danger Of their lives
from the jealousy and hatred OF an
old rival.
That evening Jefferson Hope was
taken 1uJO CuolOuJ uhuy NV DStt'e
able to find sureties, was detained Tor
some weeks. ;,
When at last he was liberated, 1t
was only to find that Drebber's house
was deserted and that he and his sec
retary had departed for Europe.
Again the avenger had been foiled,
and again his concentrated hatred
urged him to continue the pursuit.
Funds were wanting, however, and
for some time he had to return to
work saving every dollar for his ap-
preaching journey.
At last, having collected enough to
keep life in him, he departed for
Europe, and tracked his enemies
from city to city, working his way IN
any menial capacity, but never over
taking the fugltives.
When he reached st. Petersburg
they had departed for Paris; and
when he followed them there he
learned that they had just set Off
for Copenhagen.
At the Danish capital he was again
few days too late, for they had
iourneyed on to London, where he
at last succeeded In running them to
earth.
AS to what occurred there, we can
not do better than quote the old hunt
er's own account, as duly recorded
in DR.. Watson's journal, to which we
are already under such obligations.

Methods of Work.
Snag boats are essential features of
channel making In the Mississippi.
Snags have done more damage to river
traffic than all other agencies COM
blned Snags are water-soaked logs
and punches Of roots which come down
In the floods and lie In the path of traf-
fic, a constant menace to river boats.
The construction of Mississippi boats
Is such that it is comparatively easy
for a snag to pierce their bottoms.
Snags are removed with vessels con-
structed for the purpose. They are
hoisted out of the water and cut up
with steam saws. An accompanying
picture shows how 1t is done.
