FINALLY sousep UP UNCLE.
How Crowd Of Villagers Stirred the
Sage of the Cracker Barrel.

There was the usual crowd OF vii
layers sitting on the postofice steps
waiting for the mail TO be distrib-
uted, and among them was Uncle
John. He had joined the sitters with
out saying a word. and at the end OF
dsteen minutes one of the men winked
at the crowd and said:
Wei, Uncle John, have you heard
about the big earthquake in Vermont,
with 10000 people killed."
Uncle John looked at him In a
weary way and shook his head.
And the cyclone in Connecticut yes
terday and 500 houses blowndown?"
continued the man.
Uncle John yawned and was not
the least interested.
1.-The Ohio river rose 200 feet of a
sudden the other day and carried the
city of Cincinnati down stream. Tens
of thousands of people lost their lives.
Any of your relatives down there,
Uncle John?"
The old man slowly shook his head
and reached down to pick up silver
and pick his teeth with 1t.
And the whole state of Pennsyl-
vania is caving in" said the joker,
"and by tomorrow there will be a
great lake where 100000 or 6,000,0 900
people have lived"
Uncle John took the news without
a word. In fact, he yawned and
stretched over 1t.

Gelett Burgess at the recent dinner

a San Franciscan who married a girl
for her money. She was not a pretty
girl. and as time passed and love
cooled, she developed a rather tart

"One day her husband bought with

home gayly and brought his wife out

RIVERS THAT HIDE
SOME TRuANT STREAMS OF THE
FAR WEST.
Many Run for Miles Underground and
Reappear Above Non-Porous
Soii-Pecullar Course Of
Oregon River.

The 'lost rivers" of the far west as
a rule head in mountainous areas and
rush downward into bowl-like valleys,
where they incontinently vanish. Some
of them reappear miles from the van
fishing point, while others are lost for
over.
The floors of the valleys into which
they flow generally are comparatively
level and are built up of loose sands
and gravels washed down from the
rocky and forest-clad slopes, which
absorb the water and through which it
percolates slowly beneath the surface.
When the slow-moving underground
current encounters an obstruction, as
it often does, in the shape of natural
of the valley, the water is forced to
the surface and the stream is born
again.
Thus the Santa Ana river in Cali

less often in their much shorter course

At some points these sunken rivers
flow for long distances under a wide
stratum OF impervious material where
the water is under considerable pres

this stratum an artesian flow results.
Another peculiar stream is the Des.

raphers all over the world for the ex.
traordinary regularity of its flow
throughout the year. This Is account
ed for by the porous lava formation
which constitutes a portion of the
drainage area. When the streams en-
counter this sheet of lava they are
taken up by the sponge-like material

meath and through the lava and finally
emerging through dark caverns and
deep canyons into the main stream.
This wonderful lava bed is natures
regulator. 1t swallows up the floods
that come down the steep slopes. 1t
absorbs the rains and SHOWS and then
releases them slowly through a filter

ably, it is the finest trout stream in

New Mexico also has truant stream
