LOWER CALIFORNIA
A RICH PENINSULA
Facts About Territory Where
Valuable Resources Abound.

Washington.--Lo Lower California, Mex
ico's isolated peninsula, the coast OF
which the Pacific fleet of the United
States is now patrolling, is one Of the
least known territories in North Amer
lea. The following facts concerning
this arm of land. which projects about
800 miles southeasterly from the south
ern border of California, were given
out by the National Geographic society
at Washington:
The width of the peninsula varies
from about thirty to more than hun
dred miles. and its irregular coast line,
over 1000 miles long, is bordered by
numerous islands. Being mainly
mountainous, desert region, it is thinly
peopled and presents many sharply
contrasting conditions. Low sun
scorched plains, where death by thirst
awaits the traveller, lie close to the
bases of towering granite peaks, belted
by forests and capped in winter by
snow. Desolate plateaus Of black lava
look down on valleys scanned with
green bordered streams.
At the time of its discovery in 1893
by an expedition sent out by Cortes in
search of fabulously rich island. it is
estimated to have been inhabited by
25,000 Indians, who vigorously resent
ed the intrusion and prevented the
newcomers from getting foothold for
more than century. The Jesuits then
came in and were wonderfully success
fnl in rlnginU ha naninSx1lo md
tablishing missions. They established
three main trails, one along each coast
and the third down the middle, which
serve as the regular routes of travel
today. The Indians have vanished
from all parts of their former territory,
except a few in the extreme northern
end.
During the last half century all parts
OF the territory have been visited,
mainly by Americans. in search of
mines and other natural resources. but
little Of the knowledge gained has be-
come available to the public. Gold. sill
yer, copper. iron and other minerals
and much fertile land have been found,
but the scarcity of water, fuel and for
N6N anu lht uiLlSultAtS VI tTuHSDU1LH-
ton have united with other causes to
bring about failure to develop the re-
sources.
The climate of Lower California In
general is hot and arid. Northern con-
ditions are closely like those in adjoin.
ing parts of southern California: in the
middle they are more arid. but the ex-
treme southern end. though arid trop-
1cal, has more regular summer rains.
The peninsula suffers long periods of
drought, during which no rainfall euf-
fcient to start vegetation occurs over
large areas for periods of from three
to FIVE years. These dry periods may
be succeeded by torrential rains. which
sweep the country and roll great floods
down to the sea.
The peninsula is thinly peopled, and
enormous areas remain uninhabited.
The most populous section is the region
south OF La Paz, where rains are more
regular than further north. A few
small towns and widely scattered com
munities along the coast. with a lin
tied number of villages. ranches and
miners camps in the interior, cover the
population.

minds which would be able to grasp
the problems OF diplomacy as well as
those of the law.
Consequently he selected two men
who so far in their careers have ad
yanced solely on their own merits as
lawyers of extraordinary ability and
men of unusual pOise. One of them
has arisen to the highest pinnacle Of
his profession, position on the SUI
preme bench of the United States The
other is considered by majority of
the members of the supreme court to
be the ablest lawyer practcing before
that tribunal.
One of them. Joseph RCcker Lamar,
associate judge of the United States
supreme court. is Georgian by birth,
southerner of southerners and a
member of one of the most distinguish
ed families in the country-a family
which has given many strong men to
public life The other is a native Of
Prussia, who came TO this country as
child and spent his early life in
Iowa. Catching him when he was
young. the great middle west put its
stamp on him forever, and any one
would now recognize Frederick Will
liam Lehman as a typical citizen of
that section of the country.
As In their origin Uncle Sans two
representatives at the Niagara confer
ence are totally dissimilar. so are they
utterly unlike in personal appearance.
Justice Lamar is tall. angular and aus
tere looking Mr.. lehman Is short.
stocky and extremely jovial looking
The dissimilarity between the two men
really ends with their origin and early
training, for, while their outward ap-
pearance indicates that they are differ
ent in nature and general makeup, the
fact is, that their natures are really
quite similar.
Mr.. Lehmann indicates in every
movement and expression that he Is
genial. good tempered and fond of the
society OF his fellow men. Justice La
mar is the same sort OF man. but does
not look it. Both are full of life and
devoted to social intercourse.
In the matter of their work and their
careers they have reached the same
point by different routes. Although one
OF the youngest members of the su-
preme court, Justice Lamar is noted
for the lucidity Of his opinions. the
depth Of his thought and the literary
style with which he writes on legal
topics. Mr. Lehman is noted for his
clarity of thought, the almost tender
care with which he prepares case
and the masterfu manner in which he
presents 1t before the higher judicial
tribunals of che country.

Not Necessary to Put a Telephone
Transm,Ster to the Mouth.
In case one does not care to stoop
to q telephone while talking. or does
not care 10 put the transmitter to the
mouth, he can make himself heard by
very simple means. Simply place the
abdomen or the chest against the
mouthpiece OF the transmitter and talk
into the open air, and the sound will
get to the party on the other end. The
whole chest wall and the wall of the
abdomen vibrate In unison when the
mouth is speaking. as they are u great
sounding board, and they will transmit
the proper sound waves to the dia.
phragm. This is easy to try and as
tonishing in result.
Another peculiar thing noticed in
telephones at times is phantom talk
heard in a receiver when one is wait
ing for central to give connection. Odd
scraps of conversations may be heard
In this manner. They are probably
due to conversations going on over
wires lying in close proximity to the
one that you are using--such conver-
sations causing small 0scillating cur
rents which, by the process of Undue
ton, cause small oscillating currents

Spokane, Wash Fifteen miles across
country in hearse was the unique

While the stranded wayfarers looked
sadly at their balky machine, S. Nj.

ter gayly climbed into the hearse, leav-

curtains within the hearse, the way

The big black vehicle rolled through
country and villages while spectators
looked aghast at the smiling faces of

them. When the hearse reached the

horror stricken TO see party of four
live persons emerge and get aboard a
