The Draining of tho Everglades.

j. r.. lngrallam. in Success: There
are great agriculture! possibilities In
the Florida Everglades. Though they
are yet merely an expansive waste of
swamp and lake and jungle. 1 venture
TO predict that they will be the location
of hundreds of fertile farms. within
ten Years, and will by degrees develop
into one of the most productive tracts
of land i'm the world. The barrier to
the utilization of the Everglades has
been. of course. The water which covers
the greater part of them to a depth of
from one to six feet. But 1T has been
found entirely practicable to drain off
the water. Work to this end has al
ready been begun. and Is being pushed
rapidly. When 1t is completed a tract
OF land 160 miles long and 60 wide will
have been opened to cultivation. The
size of this region is not as Important
as the remarkable productivity of the
SOIL. The latter is not only absolutely
virgin. but has been fortified by AMI
mai and vegetable life through many
centuries L am confident hat Its crops
will life Florida to a place anon the
leading agricultural states.
The project of draining the Ever
giades attracted the attention of Henry
3. Plant in the early COS. but ne was
by no means sure that the scheme was
feasible. so l. acting under his direc-
ZION, undertook an expedition through
the region. Despite its proximity to
center3 of population. 1t was then for
'he first time thoroughly explored by
White men. Ours was virtually a voy-
;.se of discovery. We padded our light
loats on lakes and camped on islands
that. l have good reason to believe, had
never before been visited by any hui
MAJ being but Seminole Indians, and
by these out rarely. We underwent so
many hardships that some of our par
~ We're compelled to turn back, but our
Efforts We're not in vain, for we ascer-
tanned the important fact that the Ev-
erglades, along the whole 16O miles of
the eastern side. are trimmed by a rock
ledge. We furthermore learned that
all OF the lakes are several feet above
sea level. and we decided that there
was nothing whatever to prevent the
water of the lakes from flowing into
the ocean and leaving the and drained
If vents could be made in this long
ledge OF rock. The chief question be-
fore us pertained to the practicability
of cutting through the ledge in various
places, n dredging our outlets into
the Atlantic. which is not more than
two or three miles away at numerous
points.
Experiment proved that this work
was merely a matter of a great deal
of digging. Henry NJ. Fiagler took up
the project. n 1t is being carried out
by his l~ieutenants. We are not only
making artificial outlets through the
rock, but are also. by %ditching and
dredging, turning large bodies Of water
into rivers and creeks which flow to
the ocean. The work has progressed
enough to enable me to predict con-
fdently the opening in Florida, within
a Very few years. OF a great tract of
land OF almost unprecedented fertility.

RUSSIANS ARE SHOCKED.
Stories of Jap Brutality to Wounded
Are Implicitly Accented.

st. Petersburg, Jure 3O.-The Novoe
Nremya today, calling attention to the
statement hat Hon. Jaime de Bourbon
was an eyewitness 10 the killing of
Russian wounded at Tafangow, de-
clares something must be done quick
ly to prevent the war degenerating into
the senseless brutality which the Jap
anese practices Indicate. The paper
urges Russian newspaper correspond
ents in the field to show up the au-
thors of this brutality, secure the evil
denee of eyewitnesses. and photo
graphs, in order that The Hague con-
Nentior may be invoked.
The sudden cessation Of newspaper
dispatches from the theater of war
tends to confirm the belief that the
armies are about to engage. Most
military critics take the view that a
big battle is imminent. although the
NoNoe Nremya's expert thinks a
pitched battle now is more attractive
to h Japanese generals than to Kuro-
patkin. saying the latter does not need
precipitancy. as Russian reinforce
ments continue to arrive: but if the
japanese want Il battle they must
hasten. as only 4 fortnight remains be-
the rains set in.
