TREE-DESTRoYlNG RIVER.
Western Stream That Chews Up Veg

Banks.

The ella river enters the Colorado
Just west of Yuma, and we crossed its
angry waters through a maze of eddies
and whirlpools through which immense
quantities of driftwood were Whirline
in mad race. Escaping the worst of
the turmoil, we reached the town at
racing speed and made triumphant
landing, with half our journey &C.

per's Magazine.
AT most places along the shore the
river had reached the line of older
groWths and was leveling the larger
trees by hundreds wherever a bend of
the river directed the force of the cur
rent against the far shore. Trees fen
inches in diameter and 20 to 30 feet
hlgh were constantly topping into
the Unsuitable river.
The fall OF these larger trees was
always graceful. The first intimation
OF II was distinct SILVER that ran
through the entire tree. but was most
marked in the upper branches. a mo.

WOMEN WHO LIKE TO STAND

Unwrinkled.

BY the time the car reached For.

q dozen vacant seats, but the girl in
the new tallor-made gown refused to
avail herself of their hospitality, re.

senger boy pointed them out to her.
So did the woman in blue and the man
with the red beard, but to all invita-
tions to make herself comfortable the
tailored girl said: mo, | thank you

The conductor watched her grimly.

Legal Giants on Both Sides.
The attorneys are all remarkable
for their ability. 1t is probably the
first time David T. Watson has ever
engaged in a divorce case. He is one
of the greatest eXpounders of consti-
tutional law in the world to-day. If
there is any man living who fills the
shoes of Daniel Webster it is David
Watson. He only deals with great
things. He was attorney for the
United States in the Alaskan bound
airy dispute and won that great case
against the greatest lawyers of Europe
for the United States He was attor-
ney recently for the city of Chicago
in the traction cases there which
were won by the city. In the North.
ern Securities case his advice was in.
valuable. He has figured in a dozen
celebrated cases, but the world does
not hear much of him. Watson never
gets interviewed. He is too busy.
He is as pleasant and jolly compan-
ion as you would want to have. but
he has horror of notoriety. He does
not like the look of his name in cold
type.
His partner, John NJ. Freeman, is
almost as well known as Mr.. Watson
and, in his way, is as good a lawyer.
They lead the counsel employed to
look after Mrs. Hartje's interests.
Patterson, Sterrett & Acheson is an
other of Pittsburg's big law firms. In
fact Mrs. Hartje could scarcely have
secured any more attorneys of their

no doubt that things will be made in.
