These delta lnnd. are an linlta
llon of Holland In the New World.
Tho Saerntnento and Bnn Joaquin
aro wldpapreadlns atreani.. Like
niHt Callfornlan rivers, they are
wide, rushing torrents In winter and
not much more than crooks In ginu
mer. Toward their mouth thny used
to nproad Irregularly ovor a dlntrlot
twenty milen wide In some iilnn-s,
finding a new chnnnol every wlntor.
All over that district was a thick
growth of tule a fat six foot reed.
Here millions of wild ducks and
arose usod to feed ou the seeds of
the tule. It Is still one of the great
ch( ducklDg grounds In tho rountry.
Along In tho early '70s California
capitalists brgnn to study those dol
tns with a view to reclaiming them.
It was found that the decayed tules
bad formed a light, rich soil twenty
or thirty feet deep on tho river bed.
Tho needles of tho great mountain
forests from which tho Ban Joaquin
vIkpb had added to Its richness and
eand from the placer diggings in tho
Sierra had tied it down.
They began to dike out Islands In
the middle of the river, fending It
back by heavy walls of earth and
ruhblo. Tho first Inland carved out
Rough and Heady, It is called
was a gold mine.
Those were the days when wheat
prices were high, and tho crops ta
ken off this land were Incredibly
lurge. Rough and Heady, devoted at
the present time to fruit and to the
rearing of blooded dairy cattle. Is
now ono of the most productive areas
In California.
The farmers went Into It on a
larger scale. They carved out Union
I!and and Llouldln Island, further
down the river, and began work on
the mouth of the Sacramenti
Early In the game there appeared
new trouble. Those lands, after
they had dried out and before thoy
were tied down by the first year's
crops, would burn up on the slight
est provocation.
The tule reed packs In a mass
something like peat. When dry It
burns with a slow, sullen flame, like
a Are In a aawdiiBt pile.
The regular process of reclama
tion Is to get the dike built hard and
fast. leaving a kind of swamp,' and
then to pump out the water. After
that It Is left through ono dry bak
ing California summer to get ready
for the plough.
A spark from a combined harvest
er or from a distant grain fire would
set tt going. Thon It would smoul
der and smoulder, ndvanclng per
haps only a few Inches a day, but
burning down as far as hard pan.
It was found to be n most persis
tent kind of lire. In the early days
they used to run lines of hose from
the dredges and pump in water by
the million barrels.
After tho land Is thoroughly
burned It Is left fallow until the
TahH of two winters neve packed the
ash. Then it is ploughed and plant
ed like any other land.
The days of dear wheat are over.
There ia very little in tliut business
now, even on tho broad areas of Cali
fornia. It is only lately, however,
that the owners of delta lands have
begun to put their Incredibly rich
toll to other purposes.
A Chinaman, one Wong Jim,
howed them the way. One summor
le approached a Stockton landholder
and asked permission to plant some
delta lands in potatoes on shares.
The American refused. Wong came
back with nnother proposition. He
would rent tho land, cash down, for
Its average profit In wheat and an
advance of a few dollars an acre.
On that basis he went to work,
much joked by the American farm
ers. Next year the Texas potato crop
failed and the East had a poor crop
but Wong Jim dug out potatoes like
Buggets and sold them at famine
prices. He returned to China next
year to live as a magnate on a for
tune estimated at 140,000.
Thon Bouldln Island found that the
land was prime soil for asparagus.
Small fortunes were picked up there
from canned asparagus for the East
ern markets.
There are no fences; the landhold
ers mark boundaries by ditches.
There are very few houses. The
Islands are not comfortable places
for homes, and most of the owners,
live on the mainland.
When the grain Is yellow and
drooping big traction engines come
lu from the mainland, drawing those
oninbined harvesters peculiar to a
California harvest.
The combined harvester la mower,
threshing machine and sacker rolled
Into one. It la a gigantic piece of
machinery, almost as big as a Mogul
locomotive. Among the Intricacies
of lie beams and lever stand the
tight men who run It.
The machine goes along behind
the engine nearly as fast as a man
oaa walk. A twenty foot scythe cuts
ue stalks Just below the head, and
drops them on a canvas belt. I
A. moment later a man on the
other aide of the machine pulls a
kver. Three sacks of grain and a
iltu piu of chaff drop In the swath. !

England's Best Known Church.
The name of St. George's, Ilauivcr
square, seems to bo well known to
every American who cornea to Lhigla-d,
says the London Chronicle, not so
much because it is the fashionable
"marriage church" In this country, a3
because President Huosevelt was mar
ried in it. A few years back an Amer
ican dropped Into the vestry and looked
up the marriage register, in w hich, un
der the date of Dee. 2, ISoii, he found
tho signature of "Theodore Houscvtlt,
ZH, widower, rauchnuin," and that of
"Kdlth Koiiii it Carow." Till tlien even
the clerk, J. Moicey, did not know that
the American President's signature was
in the book.

The Japanese traders, ollieials, sol

boycott whatever, American Industry
will be put to the test to compete ou
fair terms with the Japanese before

Few men could tell If they were

"Tho average man walks four feet
per second. A dog on Its ordinary Jog
goes eight foet a second. A horse trots

Discovered! the Nssrauppee Indians
and Nt tidied Their tomtoms.
When In Juno, 1903, it was an
nounced that Leon Id as Hubbard, no
asslsant editor of a New York maga
tlne, had left New York for tho pur
pose of discovering tho Nascaupeo
Indians, who had never seen a white
man, and of exploring the wilderness
of upper Labrndor whero no whllo
man had ever been, little attention
was paid to tho report. When six
months later the story of tho ama
teur explorer's heroic struggle, with
tho wilderness, which resulted In his
death, made Its way buck to civiliza
tion, tho world he had left bohind
him ranio to nn Immediate realiza
tion of tho difficulty of his attempt.
Iilllon Wallace accompanied Hub
bard on tho expedition and when the
latter could go no farther left him
with their guide, George IClson, while
ho went to seek aid. VVallnco never
n;iln found the spot where he had
left Hubbard nnd the head of the ex
pedition perished of starvation.
After tho publication of Wallace's
book, "Tho Lure of tho Labrador
Wild," no secret was made of the
distrust with which Mrs. Hubbard
Mrs. Leo n Idas Hubbard.
regarded her husband's friend. Cer
tain criticisms In the book In regard
to her husband's lack of preparation
for his last sortie Into the unknown
was particularly resented. While Mr.
Hubbard's family acknowledged pub
licly the service Wallace performed
for his friend on the 111 fated expedi
tion and absolved him from all
blame, he was never forgiven by Mrs.
Hubbard for what she considered the
desertion of her husband.
When on May 30, 1905, Wallace
told of his Intention of taking up
the work of exploring Labrador
where Hubbard loft It, the announce
ment was made that Mrs. Hubbard
had already mado her preparations
for a similar Journey, not In the
cnuse of science, but to substantiate
her own theory of her husband's
death.
The first sign of tho rivalry of the
two parties came In the report that
George Elson, tho half breed Creo In
dian who had acted ns guide for the
first expedition, was going with Mrs.
Hubbard.
After four months of successful
exploration she came back supplied
with Information that will undoubt
edly cnuse the Canadian govern
ment to order its topographical
hoard to draw up a new map of this
wild region.
She witnessed the nnnual migra
tion of the countless thousands of
caribou, a spectaclo which tho unciv
ilized savages of Labrador only have
before been privileged to witness.
She saw tho rushing rivers coated
with Ice in August and shivered be
neath tho blasts of snow and Icy
sleet that transform night Into day
lu these weary solitudes.
She discovered a new river which
she may yet be given the honor of
naming. She traced this river from
Its source to Its mouth, nnd only she
and the Intrepid Indian guides who
accompanied her know the fearful
perils that beset those who may
In future attempt to navigate It.
Mrs. Hubbard disproved the gen
eral belief that the Indians whom
she found near tho big lakes In the
Interior never visit the coast, saying
that they occasionally go out to
trade and barter. She said both the
Nascauppee and the band of the
Montagnais tribe were startled
when she appeared among them, but
accorded her royal treatment.
She says: "I have secured to the
name .of my husband the honor of
having been the first white person to
traverse these rivers and furnish a
correct map."
A Matter of Title.
It has been suggested that the
Czar abandon one of his titles, "au
tocrat of all the Russlas." Like
many other high-sounding phrases
applied to royalty It Is regarded as
now out of place. The King of Eng
land was until 1801 "defender of
the faith of Prance." The word
"cuar" Is nevor used In Russian so
ciety. Czarina Is not Russian at all;
cznrlta Is, but Is employed only In
ecclesiastical ceremonies. The word
used to describe the Csar means
"lord." Americans speak incorrect
ly of the German emperor a "the
Kaiser," as If there were but one.
Ho Is of, course, Kaiser WUhelm,
Just as the Austrian emperor Is
Kaiser Frauds Joseph, and the Brit- j
ish sovereign King Edward. "Sub
lime porte" does not correctly de
scribe the Bultan of Turkey, any
more than the "government" would
describe the President. The "mika
do" Is a term unknown In Japan.
The mistake most common,- how
ever, Is to describe Kaiser WUhelm
as Emperor of Germany. He Is King
of Prussia, Oermau emperor. Chi

STERN CODE OF THE HINDU9.
Ideal of Truthfulness Held High ana
Carefully Practiced.
Absolute self-mastery Is the Ideal of
a Hindu, writes Swaml Abhedanamla
In (rood Housekeeping. Kvery man and
woman In India struggles hard to ac
complish it by practicing austerities,
fasting nnd various kinds of devotional
exercises. The householder Is not sup-
' posed lo Indulge in the desires of the
I lledi. Ho should practice moderation
! in eating and drinking. Ho should
hold the Ideal of simple living and
I practice it In his dally life. The Hindu
I men and women are not allowed to
drink liquors, ami the higher tho social
rank the moro rigorous becomes the
law of self-restraint,
''"he majority of the Hindus live
I st-b-tly upon vegetarian diet, and do
: not eat animal llesh. They do not kill
nnlmals for food, and they train their
children to practice this virtue of non
filing. They do not believe that low
er animals nro created to sustain lui
man life; but, on the' contrary, they
i hold that in the process of evolution
the life of the lower animal Is as lav
portatit as that of the human being.
There are many families in India
whose ideal is to sacrifice everything
for the sake of truth, because they be
li' ve that the eternal trul h cannot bo
realized by one who is not absolutely

Feathers on Hire.
Ostrich plumes ore as much of a ne
ccsisty to the London custer girl on
her outings as are the pearl button" to
her masculine companion, and tho big
trimmed hats with their drooping
feathers are familiar i:i all gatherings

In useless plumes, and there thrives a
brisk industry in the hiring of ''these
feathers. The loan of a single plume

Kaiser to Suppress Gambling.
Drastic police action Is, on the Initia
tive of the kaiser, being taken against
the gambling clubs of the German cap
ital, owing to the numerous scandals
of recent years. The 11)00 Club Is enpe-
daily the object of suspicion. It cost
60,000 to build, another 20,Cl'0 was-
spent in equipment, and the club's com
mission ou the stakes changing hands
amounts to 5,000 a month. As this
commlsion is small, the sum reveals
that the money changing hands In the
club In a year must be reckoned at
hundreds of thousands of pounds. X
systematic Inquiry has been instituted
into the affairs of this and other clubs.

In Printing a Newepaper.
In how short a time a tree con be
converted Into a newspaper was tried
recently. At 7:35 a. m. three trees
were felled and taken to a nearby pa
per factory. Dy 9:34 the first sheet of
paper issued from the machines. The
printing works of the nearest newspa
per were about two miles distant. The
paper was carried there In a motor car
at full speed, the presses set to work
and at exactly 10 a. m. the newspaper
was ready to be printed. The whole'
process from the forest to the reader
thus only occupied the space of two
hours and twenty-five minutes.
The Steam Watering Wagon.
The excellent results obtained with
the steam watering wagon in the
streets of Paris, have induced the Mu
nicipal College to order an automobile
combined watering and street-cleaning
machine, In which all the motions are
given by an oil engine, at a cost of 12,

Bathing In Berlin.
A Berlin landlord has not only sued
a tenant tor loss sustained through her
excessive use of water for bathing pur
poses, but has promulgated the extra
ordinary theory that "no respectable
woman takes a bath every day."
Poverty In Japan.
Real destitution is rarely seen In
Japan. Though some of Its Inhabitants
are very poor, yet all seem to be fairly

sects ol believers have agreed upon
ns the birthplace of r.nr Lord, is
directly tinder the church and en
tirely dependent for liht upon
artificial means. A silvtr star is
let into the pavement of a semicir

adorned with the usual church'y
symbols. liy the light oi fifteen
colored lamps suspended under the
altar we tend the inscription in
I.atin:

The lour; line of pilgrims pros
trated tin nis' .-Ives, one by one, nnd
kissed the star, some with dropping
tears all, silently solemnized be
yond the range of speech. It did
not add to our .solemnity to be
shown the manger, decorated with
lace and an embroideted altar-cloth,
and defended from sacrilegious
fingers bv a gilded railing. The
really impressive things were oc
casional glimpses of the rough
stone walls and roof of the ancient
stable, visible here nnd there be
tween the gaudy decorations.
The service of Christnias-Kve

concluded at half-past two in the
morning ! At midnight a lullaby
from the organ preluded the su
preme moment of the occasionthe
sudden folding back of a curtain
above the altar, revealing a manger
cradle and a big wax doll. The
exultant outburst of organ and
choir in a magnificent Gloria in
Kxcelsis accompanied the stately
processional of the entire staff of
priests and acolytes, chanting and
swinging censers while they bore
up one isle and down another, back
to the high altar, the same doll,
dressed in cambric and lace, nest
ling in the embrace of the richly
apparelled bishop.
Kvery incident of our last night
in Jamal's camp in Beth lehem
recurs to me with peculiar distinct
ness. How, as the darkness deep
ened, the red, blinking eyes of the
charcoal craters of the wonderful
portable stove presided over by our
accomplished chef in the door of
the kitchen-tent the night being
breezeless shone upon the under
sides of the olive boughs over our
heads, while our quiet talk went on
of what had happeued in the old
town behind us.
We spoke longest of David's
Greatest Sou, and of the Birth
that was to draw the eyes and
thoughts of all nations to the little
city on the hilltop m the land of
Tuda.
At midnight, kept wakeful by
the rush and burden of thought, I
arose to look from the tent door
upon the watchful stars that here
have a conscious majesty I have
never recognized elsewhere, and
wondered anew where, amidst the
glittering hosts "marshalled on the
nightly plain" had flashed the Star
of Uete-lehem. ror the last time
in our eventful journeyings we saw
the dawn redden the Mountains of
Moab, the thin crescent of the wan
ing moon dying, while we gazed,
before the brightness of the coming
sun.
I shall always be grateful that
that night of ineffable calm and the
beauty of the new day are promin
ent among the pictures conjured
before my mental vision, as at the
wave of an enchanter's wand, by
the name of "liphrath which is
lieth-Iehem."
