THE SALTON SEA.

The changes now taking place in
that part of southern California which
is known as the Sslton Sink, Salton
S ca, Imperial Valley, or Colorado
Desert, are of so widespread popular
and sci entific interest that TIE dir
ector Of the United States geological
survey has ordered an immediate sur
vev of the entire area.
What is now q fertile and poDulous
valley was many centuries ago great
lake or inland sea, hundred miles in
length, into which floWe the waters
Of the Colorado river. Owing to
changes in the course of the river,
the inflow ceased and the water of the
lake finally evapoIated. At the lowest
point in the valley salt marsh was
left. the bottom Of which was nearly
800 feet below sea level.
About year ago an irrigation com.
pany cut shallow often through the
bank of the Colorado river into this
basin. A little later, at time when
the water in the river was very high,
the banks of this ditch were cut away
aud its bottom was seouredfout by the
rapid current, so that now practically
the entire volume of water in the river
flows into the basin. During the past
six or eight months thousands of dol
hrs have been expended in various
Intellectual attempts to control the in
flow of the river. The salt marsh has
been enlarged to form lake forty
o. fifty miles in length, the water of
which is rising at the rate of about an
inch q day.
The proposed surveys will furnish
data for al accurate map of that por-
ton of the old lake that lies within the
United States. and will enable the
photographers of the survey to show,
in correct positions on the map, the
numerous towns within the erea, the
channels of the two streams that carry
che waters of he Colorado river to the
lake, and various other typographical
features. Wit, these data in hand,
a careful estimate can be made of the
time that it would take to fill this
great basin again should the cou Sc of

LOST HER MONEY THROUGH
A HOLE IN HER STOCKING

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan, 1l.-Mrs.
G Nasquez, Of l4041a Turk street,
has discovered that we'll gar tered hcsi-
cry is not always the safest keeping
place for money and valuables. 1t cost
Mrs Vasquez so in good money. TO
learn her little lesson. She declares
now that she will never again require
her stockings to perform any bur their
proper function.
1t was on Wednesday evening that
the mishar to Mrs. Vasquez's hosiery
occurred. She was iding on Fol
som street car. At Sixteenth street she
left the car. In alighting Mrs. Vas
uuez had the misfortune to catch one
CT her stockings on the car ster.
A dreadful rent was torn in the stock
ing and out dropped a handkerchief
conts lining $40 in gold coin. 1t was a
confusing moment for Mrs. Vasquez,
but she realized that her money was
gone
1t CHANGED that Mr. Bacnaby of
l706 Market street happened to
alight from the car inst after Mrs.
Vasquez had left it, and he was I'M
fortunate enough to fall under the
woman suspicion. She really thought,
she said that Mr. Barnaby had pick
ed up her money. The police promtly
searched Barnaby but they found no
money.
1t is the expressed opinion of Detect
ives Graham and Harrison that Mrs.
Vasquez's money fell on the car step
and was picked up by some person
after the car had proceeded on its
way.

Third Assistant Postmaster General Mad
den Is not in favor of the immediate adop-
ton OF parcels-post system for reasons
which he gives. ut is physically impossi-
Bile for carriers to handle any more mail
than they do today" He says: I'VE can
not burden them any more than they are
burdened now. Therefore, IL we go into
the parcels-pos business, we must organize
practically new service of carriers, with
additional offices wagons and horses for
collection and delivery. This will mean a
revolution In the service and the expendi-
ture of an enormous amount of money
which Will not be repaid by the postage coll
lected so long as the rates are uniform
without regard to distance If the zone
system Of rates Is adopted the administra-
ticn OF the service would be very much
complicated. However, by the consolida-
ton of third and fourth-claaa matter and
tho adoption OF the third class rate. we will
be able to do q little parcel6-l30st business,
witch can be extended from tthne 10 firue
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1906-01-25

as experience teaches and the facilities
are acquired.
I'VE propose to wipe out fourth-class
matter entirely and have only three classes,
as follows:
First class, letters and postal cards, at
the present rates.
Second class, newspapers and periodicals
at the present rates.
Third class, everything else that is mall
able-one cent for every two ounces and
fraction thereof up to four pounds, the
limit Of weight now fixed.
The Proposed Consolidation.
AT present we can send eleven pounds
of merchandise TO Germany by parcels post
at the rate of twelve cents a pound or less
than one cent an ounce Under the pro-
posed consolidation We can send across this
country four pounds of merchandise for
eight cents a pound. That will serve a
great many of the necessities and will be a
great convenience to the farmers and other
classes who want to do their shopping by
mail. / imagine also that the reduction in
postage will I'LL the mails to the full capac-
ton. OF course we can do anything, but IL
we GO into the parcels post business any
further than that, 1t means larger post
Offices, new equipment and facilities for coll
lection and distribution In the post. offices
and on the trains. As / have said, the car
riers are now loaded with as much as they
can carry and only about four or FIVE per
cent of our mall matter fs merchandise.
Much Of the heavy matter has been elm
mated by the exclusion OF books from the
second-class mails. In this respect alone
tbs reports from the post of1fces at New
York and Chicago, which are the only ones
recefyed, nllow that the reform haD re-
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1906-01-25

suited in the elimination from the second
class of four million pounds year at those
two offices. AS the cost of handling this
matter is estimated at between three and
five cents pound as against the one cent
a pound formerly received as postage, the
saving has been very large That portion
OF the printed matter which was ruled out
from the second class now pays one cent
for each two ounces or eight cents pound.
This is seven cents a pound more than was
formerly collected. In other respects the
RI form of the abuses of this privilege at
New York alone has resulted in the elinli-
nation of about 100000 pounds of matter
from the second-class mail
Mr. Madden is convinced, however. that
things will not work smoothly until the act
of March i, 1879, has been repealed or re-
vised upon much simpler basis. He says
Ii is too ambiguous and requires too much
Interpretation and permits of the exercise of
too much discretion. The postmaster who
receives a package of mail often construes
Il In one way while the postmaster who de-
liyers it CONSTITUTES it IN another, which is
unfair both to the government and to the
patron of the malls.
Mr.. overstreet's Opinion.
Representative Overstreet of Indiana.
chairman of the House committee on post
Offices, is not IN favor of adopting the par
cels-post system in this eountry--for the
present at least. He says II Is better
adapted to England and the continental
countries. where the population is more
th.ckiy settled. and would necessitate a
radical reorganization of our present serv-
ice and new facilities which will require an
enormous Investment in money.
Nor do think II is needed at present"
