great swamps on the northern slope o.
the Konge watershed. and also the dig
cling of more than two hundred miles {
new channel, by which the main stream
of the White Nile will be greatly short
ened and its bed fitted for carrying the
enormous volume of it's waters unre-
strained down to Khartum. Another
scheme contemplates the dammng Of the
in upper Nubia, and still another the
erection of a dam at Lake Tsana, on tn
highlands of Abyssinia. which will make
that great lake a reservoir for the
Blue Nile and enable it to water the fer
tile plain which lies between the Blue
and White Niles, ending here at khartum.
More Water Needed.
The great trouble now is that large
part of the waters of the Nile go to
waste. 1t is in size the fourth river of
the globe, ranking after the Amazon, the
Kongo nd the Rio de la Plata in basin
and rainfall. The area it drains is more
than one-third as large as either Europe
or the United States. and so much water
falls that If it could be collected together
IT would more than fill a ditch a mile
York to Chicago. The river is fed by
mighty lakes. one of which Is the largest
on earth. Victoria Nyanza is bigger than
Lake Superior. Lake Albert is about the
size of the Great Salt lake and Lake
Tsana has an. area of 200 square miles.
Notwithstanding this, the windings of thu
Nile are such that more than one-half
Of the water supply does not get to the
lands that need it. and during the sum-
mer there is only about enough saved to
accommodate Egypt. At the time of the
floods which occur every year. vast
quantities of water go to waste and all
the year roupd there is an enormous
loss going on by the evaporation from the
swamps of the upper Nile.
A Sponge as Big as Indiana.
I despair of giving you an adequate idea
of these mighty swamps. They lie on the
northern slope of the Kongo watershed
and are fed by the great branches of the
White Nile known as the Bahr ell Jebel
the Bahr ell Ghazal and the Bahr ell Zaraf
They begin where the river Sobat flows
into the Nile. and form an irregular TRAN
gle the base running from there two hum
dred miles westward and with the south
ern apex at Bor. which is two or three
hundred miles farther south. They lie on
the bed of what in prehistoric times was a
great lake, and they are composed of
masses of reeds papyrus and other swamp
grasses. These are so united that they
soak up thu water like a mighty sponge.
Now II you will imagine sponge as big
as the state of Indiana, from two to six
feet in thickness, and so situated that 1t Is
always filled by the waters Of the Nile.
you may have some idea Of this region.
The place where the sponge lies is not far
from the equator. and the tropical sun
beats down upon it, so that steam is al
ways rising. 1T soaks up the waters of
the Nile and gives them out into the air.
The evaporation is great that an
amount equal to half the capacity of the
Assouan reservoir is lost every day, and
IN the summer fully 80 per cent of the
water supplied by the great lakes does not

Shortening the Nile.

Shortening the Nile.
Another project. which seems to be more
feasible. is the digging Of canal on the
Nile, beginning at Dor and running south
across to where the Sobat river flows In
Such a canal would carry the waters of
the Nile along on the highlands above the
swamps and prevent their flowing into
hem except when desired. This canal
would need to be little over two hum
dred miles long, and 1t could be con-
trolled at Dor by a regulator across the
stream. by which as much or as little
OF the Nile as Is needed can be sent down
the river The channel proposed would
carry about one thousand tons of water
per second, which Is only one-fifth more
than the amount discharged into the big
canal at Assiout. This Bor-Sobat canal
would shorten the main Nile as a naviga-
BILE waterway, and all the boats going up
It,. The excavation would cost about
S22,O00,000 and the regulation works
$4,000. 600 more.
>. Damming the Great Lakes.
With this part of the Nile channel so
improved by means of regulators at Lake
Albert and Lake Victoria, where the Nile
flows out. the supply Of water for Egypt
and a part Of the Sudan would be unlim-
tied. Lake Victoria would furnish an in
exhaustible reservoir, and I understand
tSat the proper works could be put in at
Ripon falls at no very great expense.
A dam there would mean the storage OF
10000 600. 900 tons Of water for every
meters rise of the lake. The Assouan
dam, as 1t Is now built. stores only
/, 900. coo 600 tons, and when it is raised
according to the new plans now being
carried out it will store only 2,OO0OOO.O0O
tons. Raising the surface of Lake Vic
toria a little over 2 yard win store
thirty-five times as much In addition to
it's present enormous contents.
There Is one obstacle however. to such
an undertaking. The rising of the lake
might flood parts of German East Africa,
and. if so, the kaiser would probably
object Dams at the mouth of Lake AL
bert would result in the storage of
5000, OO0, OCO tons for every meter of
height, and the two lakes together would
have, for each meter added to them.
storage capacity. Of $4,000, 100000 tons
an amount beyond conception enormous
Within the next few months / expect to
make my way southwark to the great
lakes of central Africa, and shall be able
to discuss this matter from the stand
point of the conditions about Lake VIC
toria. AS the civil! engineers here esti-
mate it the regulation Of Victoria and
Albert lakes could be accomplished at
cost of $1o,OOO.OO0, which is $4,000 600 less
than was the cost Of building the As
souan dam.
The Improvement Of the Blue Nile.
II these projects for the White Nile are
carried out, Egypt will have all the sum-
mer water she needs and much of her
desert, not now irrigated. can be made
fertile. The water supply will be con-
slant all the year round and there will
be no objection to the use of the Blue
Nile for the irrigation of the Sudan.
That river will still be allowed to carry
its heavy load of silt down to Egypt dur

col. Henry l.. Eustis, who was also
promoted to Brigadier-General. and
succeeded by Col James B. Parsons. 1t
belonged to the Fourth Corps, and dis

its Major at Malvern Hill. 1t was trans
ferred to the Sixth Corps, and was Sc
verely engaged at Gettysburg and on
the Wilderness campaign. At Spotsyl-

he died the next day. Gen. White had
been selected as Commissioner to ar
range the capitulation, and was con-
Quoted Immediately to the headquarters
of Gen. A. p. Hill. Jackson was near
Hill and sound asleep. He was awak-
ened, and asked what terms would be
granted, when he said, Unconditional
surrender" and went to sleep again.
In spite of this, Gen. Hill agreed that
all private property of individuals and
side-arms of officers should be exem pit
from surrender, and that loyal refugees
should not be treated as, prisoners of
war.
The Union troops. to the number of
1880, were Immediately paroled, as
Jackson wanted to get rid of them as
speedily as possible to go to the assist
ance of Lee. Besides stores of i'm
mense value and the arms and camp
equipments of 1880 men, there were
73 pieces of artillery surrendered The
Union loss was A killed and 173
wounded.
Thus ended this shameful chapter.
