We never heard of Southern Pines
Some northern people say,
They have an idea in their heads
That it is far away.
They never dreamed a few hours ride
Down from the drifts of snow
Would bring them to sunny land

They do not seem to realize

A CARNIVAL VICTIM
B. F. Koppel of McDowell Gets a Leg
 Broken.

Benjamin Franklin Koppel of Me Dowell will perhaps remember the car nival of 1902 longer than anyone else who has yet attended the big show, and his memories will not all be pleasant ones.
 MT. KOppel is a gentleman well ad- vanced in years, but healthy. hearty and good natured. all of which pleas ing attributes will aid him materially in the mending oi a compound fracture of the left leg that he received during a visit to the merry -go-round last night.t
 It was one of those unfortunate in cidents for which nobody is specially to blame. KOppel had bought ticket for a ride on the machine and his change was little slow in coming back to him. His partner was already on board and the big wheel was moving. He thought he could board it all right and tried to do so but is not so spry as he used to be. The result was a fall to the ground. an examination showing that both bones of the left leg were broken just above the ankle. He was removed al once to the offices of Drs. Dufiield and Dods- worth. where the fracture was reduced and the leg dressed.

ical and commercial. The purchase of
sugar cane delivered at its central
mills will be one of the prime objects,
and growers who desire to plant small
areas of cane-10 to 100 acres-will be
offered the highest prices.
The larger part Of the Everglades
is still terra incognita, exploring the
vast tract Of swamps and impossible
streams being an impossibility. Many
efforts have been made to penetrate
the region, but only three white men
have been able to traverse the interior.
The only inhabitants at present are the
remnants of the Seminole tribe of In
dians, few hundreds in number,
whose reservation is situated in the
Everglades. Hunting parties are COM
PEELED to rely upon these Indians for
guidance, since attempting to visit the
region without their assistance would
be foolhardy in the extreme. The
streams which cross and recross the
swamp vary in depth from one TO six
feet, and many of them end in pockets.
leaving the explorer without the knowl-
edge or means of proceeding or return
ing.
But, of course, with the draining of
the waters this uncertainty will all be
removed, and in time even the portion
of the Everglades laid apart for the
Seminole will be invaded. The Indian
Is not at all in favor of the drainage
scheme.
There is said to be fascination
about the Everglades which leads one
on and on into its fastnesses-the de-
sire, or, rather. the expectation, of
new scenes further on which leads to
the losing of ones way. Many hunt
ers have spoken of this. The draining
of the glades will destroy a happy
hunting ground of white men, for the
rivers TEEN with fish. alligators, otter,
etc. On the larger islands there are
many deer and thousands of birds.
The present fora of the Everglades
consists of saw grass, flags, rushes,
willows, gum, cypress, maple, etc, to-
gether with palmetto, rubber trees,
ferns and other tropical growths. AL

the Atlantic only by ridge of lime
stone, being on their eastern boundary
about five miles distant from tidewa-
ter.
The task of reclaiming the Ever
glades presents no insuperable or very
difficult engineering problems. The
land is nowhere less than ten feet
above tide level, and the natural drain
age is toward the ocean, which is sep
arated from the swampy region by a
strip of soil only a few miles in width.
Through this strip a number of
streams-the Mama, Hillsborough, Cy
press, New, Little, Arch and Snake
rivers-have forced their way by nat
ural pressure. The falls or rapids at
their present heads are gradually work
ing westwardly, and in time these riv
ers would unaided effect the drainage
of the primeval swamp.
The object of the present efforts is
to assist the rivers by removing the
barriers at their heads and thence run
ming channels into the heart of the
Everglades. In this way the entire
region will be rendered dry and ara
BILE. Nine canals in all will be con
structed, with n total length of Ia
miles, and eight of these will be II
miles in length, each 80 feet in width
and II in depth. The ninth, or main,
canal will be 4S miles long, so feet
wide and of the same depth as the
others.
When completed, these canals will
be used not only for drainage pur-
poses, but also for carrying materials
to the new grounds and for transport
ing the produce from the plantations
to the coast for shipment to foreign
countries and by rail to home markets.
The time necessary to complete the
work, according to the engineers and
contractors having it in charge, will
be about five years, and the total cost
Is estimated at about $S5O0OO. The
cost of reclaiming the lands and pre-
pairing them for planting will be about
$2.75 per acre, which is considerably
less than the expense of clearing for
est lands of average density.
The Everglades basin is filled with
soil of extreme fertility and produc-
tiveness, being composed Of drift, or
alluvium, mixed with decayed vegeta-
BILE matter, and is generally underlaid
by deposit of mari, a source of much
fertility and corrective of acidity.
The soil is from two to twelve feet deep
"a black mold underlaid with mari.
1t is the purpose of the people having
the work of reclamation in charge to
plant cane, erect mills and promote
