Mr.. Kemp and his young wife will
reach New York within a few weeks
At present they are touring southern
France in an automobile. Mr.. Kemp's
friends are legion here and so the fash
ionables are eager to see his new
bride. She has always cared little for
society, preferring music, literary and
charitable work to dinners, dances and
the opera.
The Kemp divorce three years ago
was a sensation. With such connec-
tions as the Reginald Vanderbilts and
others of equal prominence the affair
kept society busy talking for days and
days.
Mrs. Kemp before her marriage was
the beautiful Baby Belle Nelson
Arthur T. Kemp was graduated from
Yale in 1894, and at once took the
place here in society and clubdom to
which his position and wealth entitled
him.
He was elected to the Knickerbock-
er and the Union clubs, the two smart
est in town, as well as to other clubs
of almost as much Importance. In due
season he met Miss Nelson and in
1897 he married her. The ceremony
took place at st. Patrick's cathedral,
for all the Nelson's are Roman Catho-
lies, and one of the smartest congre-

The late Archbishop Corrigan OFF,
ciated at the service.
A few days later the young bridal
couple were called to the bedside of
the bridegroom's dying mother. She
expired soon afterward
The two were apparently perfectly
happy until 1902, spending their win
ters in New York and their summers
in Newport. Then there was gossip
that the two had become estranged; /;
this proved to be true when Mrs.
Kemp left her husbands home and
went back to her mothers, No. 100
Fifth avenue. There she lay i'll q
long while with nervous prostration.
As soon as she was well Mrs. Kemp
No. 1 determined to take matters in
her own hands She made up her
| mind to get a divorce in Rhode Is
land. AS the law of that state re
quires a person to live there a year
before attaining legal residence, Mrs
Kemp took a cottage and remained
in Newport for the winter. Meanwhile
there was all sorts of gossip In due
season Mrs. Kemp got her divorce

When Capt. Bascomb had left his

RIVERS THAT HIDE
SOME TnUANT STREAMS OF THE
FAR WEST.
Many Run for Miles Underground and
Reappear Above kon-Porous
Soii-Pecuiiar Course Of Z.
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
ishing point. while others are lost for
ever.
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 1t
percolates slowly beneath the surface.
When the slow.moving underground
current encounters an obstruction, as
1t often does. In the shape of natural
dixie or the rocky rim of the lower end
of the valley, the water is forced to
the surface and the stream is born
again.
Thus the Santa Ana river in Cali
fornia sinks in the wash above Red
lands, rises to the surface above

low Ell Rincon, sinks in the wash above
Santa Ana and finally partly rises
again in the large peat land springs
above Taibert
The San Gabriel and the Los An
geles rivers exhibit the same charac:
teristics, but disappear and reappeai
less often in their much shorter course
to the sea.
At some points these sunken rivers
flow for long distances under wide
stratum of impervious material where
the water is under considerable pres.
sure. When wells are driven through
this stratum an artesian flow results.
Another peculiar stream is the Des.
chutes, which drains large area in
central Oregon. 1t is known to hydrog.
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
and disappear from sight, passing be
meath and through the lava and finally
emerging through dark caverns and
deep canyons into the main stream.
This wonderful lava bed Is nature
regulator. 1t swallows up the floods
that come down the steep slopes. II
absorbs the rains and SHOWS and then
releases them slowly through filter
miles In length into the Deschutes.
Day after day, year after year, Its
flow is uniform and Its waters spark
ling and clear. For this reason, prob
ably, 1t is the finest trout stream in
America.
New Mexico also has truant stream

miles of mountain country in the
