When rain falls in straight sheet even the forest is plotted out and the alligators and turtles of the margins are invisible until the sun reappears.
 When stop is made for wood or to deliver merchandise to some little trad ing point the outlet for some rich region producing sugar, hides, coffee or tobacco, all the village comes to the little wharf, guns are fired and the church bell is rung in the steamers honor; there are a number of such places below Puerto Berrio. Puerto Berrio is important as the starting point for the wonderful Cauca Valley, worth some trouble to reach and pos sessing a perpetual June climate, a wealth of fruit and flowers, a fertile soil and mountains sown with precious minerals.
 At La Dorada, where the blue noun tains have suddenly come nearer and turn green and purple, there is little but row of modest cottages, and the railway sheds; but here is the train for Beltran the line leaving the river, and traversing a wonderful country of bright green pastures with sturdy herds grazing, fine lusty trees and hills that rise grotesquely, topped with fan tastic rocks like battlemented castles of the middle ages.

 river from the sea to Bogota,
 the capital of Colombia, is one
 of the most interesting the traveller can find, says the London Times. The time of the voyage varies from nine to fourteen days, according to whether it Is made in the wet or dry season.
 During the trip one ascends from sea level to 5000 feet above 1t; there are three separate train, and two steamer journeys; the scenery varies from sweItering forest to wide, airy pastures, wheatfields and ragged blue mountain peaks; the dwellings of the people change from insouciant, palm matched huts to the imposing Spanish style stone mansions of the ancient city of Bogota.
 Puerto Colombia, with the turquoise Caribbean washing it's feet, is port by courtesy. Steamers call there for the convenience of Barranquilla. Wide spread, sunny, fiower-bedecked Bar r8nquilIa sits upon the bank of the Magdalena, and continually and pas sionately discusses the question of wa ter transport, for it can have no direct access to the sea until the Magdalena bar is conquered.
 From Barranquifla one takes river steamer to La Dorada. On the flat bottoned river boat, drawing only q foot or two. of water, travellers must provide themselves with bedding; the steamship company lends a canvas cot, but nothing else, and the Barranquilfa hotels specialize in providing the vis- itor for Bogota with the outfit-a pill low of tTee-cotton, couple of tiny sheets, 8 mosquito netting 'bar," 9 couple of little towels. No other bed ding is needed, for the heat is stiffing but the judicious also take table deli cacies and everything needed in the way of beverages, with the exception of coffee, of which there is g constant and most excellent flow.
 Soon the forest closes down to the edge of the water, as uneonquered, as dominant, as in Quesada's day, 400 years ago. Quesada took two years to ascend the river to Bogota, the sur vivors of his party arriving ragged and starving; the marvel is that single one of those adventurers reached the plains.

SANTA CLAUS CAUSES
RIOT WITH CHILDREN
Seven thousand Presents and IL. 900
kiddies to Get Them Bring
Wild Disorder.

NEW YORK, Dec. 24.-Seventhou-
sand Christmas presents are not suffi-
cient for fourteen thousand children.
Hence u riot. This was the explana-
ton given today by Fourth Deputy
Police Commissioner Wallis for the
wild disorder which prevailed for a
time last night at the Christmas fes-
tfvai arranged by the peoples liberty
chorus and the police department..
For every little invited guest who
wended his or her little way to the
Seventy-first Regiment Armory came
also an unlimited youngster. Police
reserves from six precincts were
called to restore order.
Each invited guest was first shown
to his or her particular seat for the
evening. But when the 1000 had ar
rived and 1000 more, and the Hippo
drome clowns began their antics, the
little hearts just heat too fast and the
little feet would not remain where
they belonged. Long lines began
forming for the distribution of the
1000 presents. But police stationed
about the armofy were powerless to
maintain order. And the riot began.
Dolls and candy and other presents
were snatched from the counters by
the eager >youngsters-only to be re-
snatShed by others more eager. 1t
was give and take-mostly take. y
In the turmoil and pushing and
showing hundreds of the little ones
were forced into the street until the
crowd was finally placed under con-
troll.
Every invited guest. SO it is said by
those who know, who did not re-
ceive gift from Santa Claus last,
night need only present his or her in
vitation card at his or her local po-
lice station-and Santa will see that
there is no riot.

 Today loading the first car of ore begins, and it IS going to Fl Paso, where the first output was sent over a century age. But that is not all. Its new levels in the old formation are opened sufficiently to permit the statement to be cOnservatively made that it is going to keep in line to be a live one hereafter. There js a sec ond 40 ton batch piling up for an other shipment, and in the lower level guarantee is given that it can be handled. And this from de- velopment basis only, which all the more should be convincing of what in reality was being accomplished in straightout mining.

LEGION BACKS CITY
 MARKET AT LOWELL

LOWELL, Arizona, Sept. 3.-The Warren districts first experiment with a municipal market proved such an unqualified success that it prom ises to become a permanent affair, with rooted building, screened stalls and even a small refrigerating plant where farmers can dispose of their meats and poultry.
 The market, under the auspices, of the city council and the American Legion, opened promptly at s o'clock yesterday morning on the site of the old Central theater in Lowell and was soon besieged by small army of housewives, maids, and even men of the house who like to take hand in the family shopping. At least l ,000 persons visited the market and made purchases during the day, with the result that many farmers made aurry-up trips back to the ranches to bring in more supplies.

VERDE FAIR SUCCESSFUL
 HOSS SHOW
(From Thursdays Daily.)

Camp Verde IS staging its most impressive cowboy carnival this week, according to w. J. Lowthian, who returned yesterday from three day visit across the mountain. Mon dly and Tuesday there were some high class sporting events pulled off under the auspices of the Camp Verde Fair association, which awarded a total of $500 in purses.
 Cheyenne Riser, who was high in the list of fnishers in the worlds championship bronco busting con test here during Frontier Days, won the prize for both the bronk and bull riding. Walter Cline, inevitably a winner at such sports, cleaned up the steer breakaway, but conceded the pony express race on the first day 10 Wells, who won it here, and OH the second to Elmer Gardner.
 Not the least interesting feature were the Indian events. One of their best stunts was the money" race patterned after the Mexican caza de gallos, or chicken pull"
 We'll over a thousand visitors at tended the fair from all parts of Yav- apai county, most of them going by automobile. Lowthian reports the roads thick with cars going into the Verde valley. Doc Pardee of Pres colt was director of the sports.
