ONCE A MIGHTY STREAM.

Ages ago when the mountain ranges OF
Arizona and California lowered toward the
stars, at least twice as high as they Go now,
rains were very freduent and came down in
torrcntial volumes all along these mountain
ridges. The Colorado River in these past ages
was a mighty stream, sweeping down debris
In tons every second OF its flow. The Colora-
do sink was at that time a great inland sea,
which spread over the country on both sides
OF where the river now runs. AS the erosion
Of winds and storms, landslides and glaciers
wore down the mountain ridges year by year,
the great river carried down a vast amount
OF silt, erosion from the rocks full OF phos.
pilates, lines and dIsintergrated GRANTEES, as
well as the vegetation along its banks; and
fhis was all deposited in what are now the
sinks OF the Colorado.
AS the mountain tops were worn down, tie
rains became less frequent and less in volume
bat the erosion OF rocks and river banks, the
trees and vegetable mould torn from the
banks still came down and settled into the
bottom OF the great inland lake. This geogical
process went on from age to age to our time,
leaving the Colorado at Yuma a stream about
half a mile wide and being at the present
time about twenty feet deep In the deepest
portion.
1t is not necessary to remind Cslifornians
that the Spanish missionaries and explorers
called this river the Colorado because of the
reddish color Of its waters. 1t is the Colorado
up in the Grand Canyon in Arizona and
down past The Needles. But at this time Of
the year. after passing the mouth Of the ella,
instead OF the red river it becomes the brown
river 1t actually looks today as if ten per
cent of its flow was silt and only ninety per
cent water.

CUT SEVEN CROPS YEARLY.

Arizona has established an experiment
station in the heart of this big valley, which
is some twenty-four miles long, and in spots
ten TO twelve miles wide, down on the lower
level. The results are wonderful. Last week
they were cutting a crop of alfalfa on this ex-
petimcntal farm ana for seven consecutive
months they will cut succeeding crops. The
only months when the crop is not cut here are
December and January.
Cotton and tobacco grow with the greatest
luxuriance, and this rich alluvial soil viii be
noted in very few years Is the ideal spot in
the whole country for dairylng, hog raising,
the production of poultry and vegetables, which
one heSitates to call early or late, as they will
be perennial. New potatoes will be produced
in the middle Of January, tomatoes will be
ripe by the first of March. ripe grapes will be
gathered in the early DAYS of May, and april
cots by the middle of the same month. Chic
kens and turkeys flourish there in the winter
time beyond all experience anywhere else.
The rainfall is exceedingly light and comes
only three or four times in q whole winter.
With an abundance of green alfalfa and Yeget-
able the dry and not overheated climate
prevailing in the winter months, chickens are
free from the disease that make their raising
difacuit elsewhere. There is no spot in South
ern Illinois or Missouri so adapted to the pro-
duction OF corn as this valley along the Colora-
do River With alfalfa and corn the butter,
cheese, eggs, poulsry and pork to be raised on
twenty-acre farm will amaze those who have
the experience in American agricultural affairs
The winter climate around Yuma is a thing
so iutoxicatingly salubrious That no words can
describe it. Those deserts of America, as we
haz-a regarded them heretofore seem to oefy
the Ills that human nature elsewhere is SO
prone to contract and suffer from. The atnos
phere is as dry as punk, the skies cloudlessly
clear, the air mild as possible, and every
breath seems to be an inspiration of new life.

RICHES OF SOIL WONDERFUL

But the object OF this story is TO call atten-
tion once more, and for perhaps the thou
sandth time to the riches OF the soil along
the Colorado on both sides, incident to the
depositidg of this mass of debris during all
the past ages. Going through the country
on the Arizona side of the river, for several
miles below Yuma, one encounters the same
type OF country and soil that is found in the
Imperial Valley country around Brawley,
Calexico and other points west of the river
The fertility of the black prairie soils of uli-
nois has astonished people engaged in agri-
culture for nearly one hundred years. The
fertility of the valleys Of the Nile has been a
matter OF history for at least COCO years. Those
who are familinr with Illinois prairie soil,
and those who know what the valley of the
Nile is for agriculture. khow that this lower
Colorado River region surpasses both of them.
If you ask a farmer along this stretch of
country IL the soil is six feet, his eyes will
open with establishment al your ignorance.
He viii tell you no one knows whether it is
O. feet, 500 or 5000 feet deep. 1t is practically
without bottom. 1t is so thoroughly well
mixed with sand, disintegrated granite and
other rocks that 1t never breaks. 1t is as
easily worked as heap Of ashes, and re-
spends to cultivation in way that is mar

Judge Sutton
Sends a Friend
to State Prison
Has to Sentence Young Man to the
Penitentiary for Coming Up
Too Often.

John O'Brien Of South Omaha came once
too often before Judge Sutton in district
court.
"A year ago." said the court, II paroled
you when convicted of breaking and enter
ing to Father O'Hearn on your solemn
promise that you would be reconfirmed in
the faith Of your fathers. You promptly
broke your word.
You have, 1 fear, relied too much on
the devotion and loyalty of your faithful
mother and on friends whom you thought
were influential. II is with sorrow that I
find you here. I nave known your family
for many years and you are the only one
who has cast a shadow on the name of
either O'Brien or Henkle.
Even now I'd be ready to deal lightly
with you If I thought it would be for our
good. But what you need is n lesson that
the law must be respected, that you can
not break 1t relying on your mother and
friends"
The court gave O'Brien, who is not over
'21, two years ard one half in the peni-
tertiary. and allowed him the six months
he has been in jail. O'Brien robbed the
Bennett cigar store in South Omaha.
John Kennedy tried hard to convince
the court that a jury erred in convlctina
him Of snatch-ng a mans pocketbook and
running away. Judge Sutton was not per
suadable, nevertheless and gave Kennedy
three and one-half years. Thomas Mayer
who robbed a man on a street car, got one
year ana one-half. William Lewis did moi
come up for sentence.

Grlgware's Father
is Still Hopeful
If New Trial is Denied and Appeal
Cannot Be Won He Will Try
for Pardon.

E. NJ. Grigware Of Spokane, father
Of Frank Grigware, one of the
young men convicted of the rob-
berry of the Overland Limited, will
remain in Omaha until after the motion
for a new trial in his sons case is disposed
of by Judge Munger on Monday. 9
"Sould the motion be overruled, and we
lose out on an appeal to the circuit court
OF appeals said he, Il will at once put
measures on foot to secure a pardon for
Frank. i know 1 can get a thousand or
more signatures to such a petition in
Spokane, where Frank has spent most Of
his life. / believe, too, that I can get
many signatures to the petition here IN
Omaha. Many Omaha people rave told
me during the trial that Frank has made
a good impression here and there is a deep
seated sympathy for him. He is the first
Of the name OF Grigware that has ever
did a wrong thing, and from my heart l
do not believe he is guilty of this crime,
He simply got I'm bad company. Up to the
time he was 20 years old he never spent
a night away from home. He is a good
boy and was always a good SON"

Picture Causes
Suit in Courl
Photographer Claims Stock Yards
Bank Has Infringed on His
Copyright.

A picture may ave no especial signifi-
canoe, yet at the same time It may be an
important thing in the United States courts,
This was demonstrated In the United
states circuit court Friday afternoon In the
suit filed by f. j. Bandholtz against the
Union Stock Yards bank of South Omaha.
The plaintiff Is a photographer and a
resident of Iowa. On or about July s, 1909,
he made a photograph of the Union stock
yards Of south Omaha and had photo
~gravures made which he valued at 81 each.
He now claims in his petition that the
Union Stock Yards bank Of South Omaha
has infringsd on his copyright and mas
had the photograph reproduced, much to
his financial disadvantage, whereby he IL
defrAuded Of his copyright rights. He
consequently asks that the United States
circuit court intervene and protect him In
his rights.
A deputy United states marshal went
down to the Union Stock Yards bank and
made a seizure of l,Sa5 OF the photogra-
vHres.
This is the first case Of the kind that
has ever been brought In this district for
the protection OF a copyright.

First Lecture by
Commander Peary
Explorer Describes His Trip to tho
Pole to Distinguished Audience
in Washington.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1s,-'T had made
good to myself, my friends and the flag
OF my country" declared Commander
Robert r. Peary today after describing
TO a distinguished audience, amonG whom
were statesmen, diplomats and scientists,
how, after years of toll and persistent eff
fort, he had at last reaches the north pole.
1t was the commanders first lecture
since his return from his last trip to the
frozen north and was delivered under the
auspices Of the National Geographic so
ciety, which had already endorsed him az
a ~disooverer of the pole.
Commander PeRry made no direct refer
.enee to DR.. Cook. who claims to have
reached tho pole a-year before Peary. He
intlmRted, however, that he did not regard
ii possible that any expedition had at
tanned the top Of the earth ahead Of his
own.
In describing his feelings, when. as ne
said, he had reached the goal Of his ambi-
ton, Commander Peary declared that the
conditions were very commonplace and that
they were the same as they had been
experiencing for days before. There were
no new unusual sensations for eve or ear,
except thai the sun moved parallel With
the horizon.

Peary, that after tweaty-three years. into

Policeman
Marooned on Pole
Officer Rishling Has Tough Luck
Guarding Fence Of Former
Mayor Bemis in Rain.

Police Officer RishlinE was marooned
Friday night on the top Of q cedar post in
the neiEhborhood OF Second street and
Popplston avenue by the water which began
falling early in the afternoon. The officer
has been detailed to guard a fence built,
for the third time, around a tract Of land
owned by ex-Mayor Bemis. The fence had
been torn down Wednesday and Thursday
nights, but was rebuilt, and the officer
was put on guard to prevent the third
depreciation.
Ex-Mayor Bemis owns the tract Of land
along the river front extending from Pop
pleton avenue south two or three blocks
and runs west to Second street. He got
possession OF the tract a few years ago
and allowed it to be used by the public in
general until recently, when he decided to
plat 1t and sell townslte lots. A civil
engine er was employed to set the stakes
designating the lot boundaries, the streets
and the alleys.
After completing this, ex-Mayor Bsmis
employed men to build a fence around one
block to keep out the ~trespassers. They
did not like to be required to walk around
the block and to be deprived Of the privilege
Of cutting across" 30 they tore down the
fence. Mr.. Bemis had 1t replaced Thursday,
but returned to the scene Friday morning
and found 1t down for the second time. 1t
was replaced and the officer was detailed
to watch 1t last night to prevent repetition.
He went on duty early in the evening
attIred In rubber coat and boots, and re-
NAMED there until late in the evening,
when the added quantities Of water began
to deepen, and then he was required &c
take refuge on top OF a post and remain
there until rescued by fellow officers.
