comfortable.
Since its invasion of the Salton Sink,
and the struggle of the engineers to
hold 1t under control, the Colorado
river has found a new mouth, 20 or
80 miles southeast of the old one.
The consequences of this change, says
Dr. d. T. MacDougal, are somewhat
momentous. For one thing, the bore
which formerly. ran many miles up
stream, affecting both the Colorado and
the Hardy rivers, will probably disap-
pear, since in the new channel the
water reaches the sea by a more grad
ual descent and with gentler current.
New mud-fats will fringe the shore for
a distance Of so miles. Eventually, it
is probable, brackish lake, 80 or 60
miles long, will be formed, into which
the seepage Of the Hardy river will
flow; and serious disturbance of the
plants and animals over an area Of
several hundred square miles may
ensue.

CHAPTER XII.

Next day at early dawn, Hatteras
gave the signal for departure. The
well-fed and well-rested dogs were
harnessed to the sledge. They had
been having a good time Of 1t all the
winter. and might be expected to do
good service during the summer.
1t was at in the morning when the
expedition started. After following the
windings of the bay and going past
Cape Washington, they struck into the
direct route for the north, and by 7
o'clock had lost sight of the lighthouse
and Fort Providence.
During the first two days they made
twenty miles in twelve hours, devoting
the remainder of the time to rest and
meals. The tent was quite sufficient
protection during sleep.
The temperature began to rise. In
many places the snow melted entirely
away, and great patches of water ap-
peared.
Hunting was not forgotten during
the march. for fresh meat was a ne
cessity. Altamont and Bell kept their
guns loaded, and shot ptarmigans,
RulllemOtS, geese, anu d lew young
hares.
Hatteras advised them not to go
more than a mile away, as there was
not a day, nor even an hour, to lose
for three months of fine weather was
the utmost they could count upon. Be-
sides, the sledge was often coming to
difficult places, when each man was
needed to lend helping hand.
For several days the expedition had
been attended with no fatigue. The
travellers had only suffered from the
intense glare of the sun on the snow,
which threatened them with snow
blindness.
At another time Of the year they
might have avoided this by walking
during the night. but at present there
was no night at ALL Happily the snow
was beginning to melt, and the bril-
liancy would diminish as the process
of dissolution advanced.
On the Sth of June the thermometer
rose to 45 degrees, and the rain fell in
torrents. Hatteras and his compan-
ions, however, marched stoically on.
and even hailed the downpour with
delight, knowing that 1t would hasten
the disappearance of the snow.
AS they went along, the doctor often
picked up stones, both round ones and
fiat pebbles, as II worn away by the
aide. He thought from this they must

Altamont," said Hatteras, holding
out his hand; "be our companion to
glory, come with US and find the north

The two men clasped hands in a
warm, hearty grasp, and the bond of
friendship between them was sealed.
When they turned to look for the
doctor they found him in tears.
"Ah! friends" he said, wiping his
eyes; you have made me so happy it
is almost more than l can bear? You
have sacrificed this miserable nation
atty for the sake of the common cause.
You have said, What does it matter

Why should we brag Of being Ameri-

ciled enemies to his bosom, and ce-
mented their friendship by his own
affection to both.
Calming themselves the men cut up
the oxen and made their way back to
camp. At supper the doctor said:

The Parcels Post.

Editorial Columbia Record, l1th.
The Newberry Chamber of Com
merce has gone on record in protest
against the proposed parcels post,
which is nothing in the world but a
scheme of the mail order houses OF
New York and Chicago to monopollze
the retail trade of the country at the
expense Of the merchants OF the smal!
towns and cities throughout the land.
The chief sufferers would be the mer-
chants of the South. 1t is high time
that Southern commercial organiza-
tions arose in protest. The postal
savings bank act is bad enough for
the South, but the parcels post would
be infinitely worse.
The News and Courier, however,
defends the parcels post as based on
economically sound grounds, arguing
that it is a fundamental economic law
that purchasers shall buy in the
cheapest market, and that If the mall
order houses are able to undersell the
local retailers no harm is done the
community in the long run. That
might be convincing if it we're true
that the mail order houses do under
sell the local retailer. The applica-
ton Of this economic law to which
