BROUGH NOMINATES ROBINSON
Suggests Arkansan for Consideration
 at the Next President.

tallahassee, Fla, April 1.-The name of Sen. Joseph Robinson of Ar kansas was submitted to the Florida today for consideration for the next president of the United States" by former Governor c. H. Brough of that state.
 pr. Brough, visiting this city on a Chautauqua tour, addressed the House on special invitation. He spoke about 30 minutes.
 "The Democrats will most certainly carry the next presidential election" he declared, adding that quite natur- ally there was considerable interest as to who would be the party's standard bearer
 T want to submit for your consider ation a name, that has not before been mentioned" he said. "Mr McAdoo and MT. Cox will most likely poll the great est strength on the first few ballots, but I do not think that either of them can be nominated"
 He mentioned Senator Ralston of Indiana and John w. Davis of West Virginia as strong contenders. MT Robinson, he declared, would find SUD- port among the Eastern and the Mid dle Western Democrats. The South. he said, feels strongly toward Senator Oscar w. Underwood of Alabama, but he understood that MT. Underwood's health is bad, pointing out that he re- linquished the minority leadership be- cause of this.
 "If we cant have MT. Underwood, let's send Joseph T. Robinson to the White House." he exclaimed
 Dr. Brough touched upon the con- vict lease system, and expressed hope that the Florida legislature will abol- ish it at this session.
 He suggested a severance tax, in- come and inheritance taxes as tried and successful means of raising re- venues, saying: Your state surely needs more revenue"
 Seventy-fve per cent of the revenue from Arkansas severance tax is used to build roads, he continued, and the 25 per cent remaining is used for educational purposes.

RIVER IN PLACE OF A SWAMP
Remarkable UpheavaI Said to Be With out Precedent In History of
 British East Africa.

The bursting of swamp p miles from Nairobi. writes the London Daily Mail correspondent, Is without prece- dent in the history of the British oc- cupation of Kenya colony, formerly British East Africa. Where once was placid swamp covered with papyrns grass, there Is now a permanent valley with a turbulent river. flowing down the center.
 In the swamp wae a Coating papy- rus mattress many feet thick and with about 70 feet m water beneath. Elm bankme61 wess unAda 6nd 8 bx1dge erecfed carrying tho road across 6e swamp, and when tha 1hika faik0ad wa6 constructed @ SdbSkantial bf3dge was alRo erected across this swAmp at . point few hundred yards below the road bridge.
 Now many square mtles of swamp water hav0 been released. The effect was 2 brea1-ap Of the papyrus like the smashaus Of log jam The weight of the water wiped out the main and minor road bridges and seriously dam- aged the railway bridge, cutting off from civilization the whole Of the huge agricultural area of the Kenya prov ince around Mount Kenya.
 Earthquake shocks were experienced in this district recently, and the theory of the government officials Is that these caused the sudden collapse of the support of the swamp. that support probably taking the form of a rocky roof of huge underground caverna
 No floods below the valley are re- ported, and the volume of water must, therefore. have gone underground leav- ing behind new and unexplored deciivity many miles long. which may be the resting place of minerals or re- mains of scientific importance.
