DRAINAGE OF THE FLORIDA EV-
ERGLADES

erglades has been of historical inter
est since the seven year Seminole
Indian var. which ended in 1912. dur
ing which time a meager. knowledge
of that peculiar area was obtained and
later published in various brief re-
ports. Its reclamation for farming
purposes has generally been regarded
as imDossfble. or At least So visionary

lv. The preliminary work for its
drainage. fnaugurated by the state in
1906. is sharply criticized in many
. quarters and bitterly opposed in 9th
. or-. There is no question but this
. area occupies q most unique position
among the various drainage projects
NOV receiving attention in various
parts or the country. It IS a swamp

ANCIENT GOLD MINES.
Workings of solOmon's Time Still
Yield Precious Metal

Rhodesia, British Zambesia, ranks
among the chief gold-bearlng countries
of the world. The ancients mined and
carried away enormous quantities Of
the precious metal, but under the scien-
tific mining systems Of the present day
their operations will be greatly sur.
passed, says the Baltimore Sun.
1t has been suggested that perhaps
Rhodesia was the ancient land OF
Ophir, the land of the mysterious King
Solomon's mine, but the theory Is
strongly combated by some investlga.
tors. The ancient gold workings are
the basis Of modern operations. For
every ten square miles Of RhodesIa
there was one ancient mine; that Is,
there are $4,000 old holes, which means
that stupendous wealth was dug out
of the earth before the days of Cecil
Rhodes and his companions. Much Of
this wealth must have gone to the
north and east; 1t was probably
wrought into the crown of the Queen
of Sheba and filed the Golfers Of Sol
Nmon.
The ancient smelling furnaces are
still easy to recognize They are sunk
Into the floor. The furnace blow pipes
are made Of the finest granite powder
cement and the nozzles of the blow
pipes are covered with splashes of gold.
The Innings Of the holes are covered
with specks of gold. When the first
lining became worn by the heat fresh
lining of cement Of an excellent quail
ity, which has Outlasted time, was
smeared round on the top of the old
lining.
Apparently the ancients wasted gold
lavishly. The yellow metal has been
found in large quantities in the forms
Of pellets as large as buckshot In the
vicinity of the furnaces and also
thrown away on the debris heaps out
side of the old buildings
The tools of the ancient workers
which have thus far been discovered
include a small soapstone hammer and
furnishing stones of waterworn rock,
to which gold still adheres. Thirty-five
thousand dollars worth of gold orna-
ments have been taken in the last seven
or eight years from the ruins Of Mata.
beleland alone.

CAR FOR ROYAL CHILDREN.
The Princess of Wales Has Designed
n Picnic AutOmohiIe

The Princess of Wales has her own
ideas about how an automobile should
be built. A car embodying some of her
own pet features has Just been COM
pleted for her by prominent firm of
English builders Like the king, she
has shown her preference for the Brit
ish-built article, says the Kansas City
Star.
An attempt has been made to make
the new car picnic vehicle. 1t is de-
signed for the youngsters and folding
table is feature. This can be put in
position In few moments for the serv-
ing of tea and light refreshments.
In designing the car her loyal high
ness stipulated that the two diminutive
seats intended for the children should
be placed as far as possible from the
door, so as to obviate the possibility of
injury in case of accident. In addition
to the two seats for children there Is
room for three people in the compart-
ment.
The car Is Of medium power, 2S-36
horse power. Its color is an unusual
shade Of green and her royal highness'
hand Is in evidence there also. She is
said to have hit upon the peculiar
shade in unique manner. While stroll.
ling in the grounds of York College,
Sandringham, the princess was struck
by an unusual mlngling of greens on a
fir tree. A bunch of the leaves was
obtained to match 1t. The princess Is
said to be delighted with the result.
The young princes and princess are
overjoyed with the idea of having
big car which can be said to be theirs
alone. An unusually large window in
the back of the car enables them to
look out at the rear, further delight
especially in fast travelling.
