In one of the treat lee imixsiw let n
tew hundred mile below, where they
mert-e and create the river, the tem
perature Is such that It wi;rks Its way
tbrouph a perfect lab.vrlnib of tmpli-ul
vegetation.
Only the mariner ciiti tell the place
where the Amazon really tins lis
moult), tieeause Ihe upeuihi: Ii tins
made on the eastern coast of South
America Is ho wide that It esiends over
KM) miles. A hum distance before one

ever, one ih really sailing on the wa

They say that tfOO in lie out ut Sea oft
the mouth, of the Amazon you i-hii
hoist a bucketful of fresh water out
of the ocean from the deck of a ship.
such Is the quantity of Us water that
flows from that KiKantlc basin.
l.oiiK after you llave entered ihe ac
tual river and have lis hunks iiorlh
and south of you If you are In mid
stream you will still be out of sllit of
laud, such Is the breadth of t lie vast
channel. The river siietches far Into
the ocean and far up the country.
Take a map of South America und
look up a place called lipilios. It lies
four-tJfths of the way across the con
tinent from east to west. Vet from
lipilios there Is a fortnightly service
ot ocean going steamers to Kurope
which descend some 3.1MHJ miles ot the
river before they reach the sea.
it Is not only one branch of the Am
azon, but many, that are thus to be re
garded as the same as ocean highways
The southern branches of the Amazon
are broken by rapids along a line
where a low continental shelf exists.
Above these rapids, however, there Is
again deep water. Thus beyond the
falls of the Madeira there are over
10.000 miles of navigable water on that
river and Its branches. ' ,
Not only Sir .Martin Comlay. but
other travelers who dave ventured
alone the upner river and Its tributa
ries, nay that here a curious woodlaud
tangle exists. To the surface of the
water the sun's rays seldom reach, and
one may go many miles along water
ways where It is well nigh as dark as
night because the sky Is almost coin
pletely shut out by the mass of vines
which Interlace the trees aud are ho
thick with leaves Deprived of tho
sunlight, all Is dark and rank. The
damp air is laden with unhealthfiil
vapor. The surface of the water In
places where the current Is too slug
gish to carry it away is covered with
scum aud weed.
It requires no little courage to ex
plore these fastnesses, for a man real
ly lakes his lite lu his hands, so un
healthy are they. Occasionally, bow
ever, one can see the upper portion of
the forest where there is a little crev
ice In its roof of vines. Above this Is
really a scene of life and beauty. Hlrds
aod buttertlies and other gorgeous In
sects are dying from place to place;
flowers of hundreds of bues and shapes
are blooming from tbe plauts attached
to tree, branch and trunk. While lie
low all may be lifeless aud silent,
above tbe height wbere tbe mass of
vines overshadow tbe river nature has
created a world of brightness and ani
mation; but. as already stated. It is al
most entirely shut out from the human
eye.
To attempt to break through this
canopy of vines wblcb bide It from tbe
lower world Is almost Impossible be
muse tbe vines grow so thickly, but
Vine naturalists have peuetrated It
and say that tbe forests really have
two surfaces, tbe one above this artifi
cial root and tbe one below. That
wblcb is above la barred from human
entrance. Its Inhabitants are mostly
birds and Insects that are radiant with
beauty uiiequuled in tbe world.
Whatever grows lo the Amazon mud
strives wltb desperate Internecine
struggle to reach this sky exposed sur
face and there blossoms. Beneath,
wbere man ran walk or float, ull Is
dark. Only here and there a fltful ray
of sunlight struggles through. Orchids
blossom within this shadowy reglou
You can see these bright creatures
CJtfully lu tbe eaveru below, but not In
all their glory, us they must behold
one another above. Sometimes as they
flit about beneath they will chance to
cross a sunbeam slanting through a
bole Id the vegetation; then for an In
stant they flush Into view like an ex
plosion of burning color. It Is thus
that tbe great butterflies are seen to
tbe best effect. No one can Imagine
what a plctare they produce In their
native baums as their wings flash and
close and flash again Id the sunlight as
tbey fly

Don Piatt's Client Had a Stunted
Sense of Humor.
A quaint story about Don Tlatt la
told In the "Itecollectlons of a Varied
Life." by (ieorge Cary Eggleston. The
story Is given in Mr. Piatt's own
words:
"When I wis a young man trying to
get into a law practice In Ohio and
eager to advertise myself by appear
ing In court a fellow was Indicted for
arson. He enme to me, explaining that
he had no money wltb which to pay a
lawyer, but that be thought I might
like to appear In a ease so Importaut
and that tf I would do the best I could
for him he stood ready to do anything
for me that be could hy way of recom
pense. took the case, of course. It
was a complex one, aud It offered op
portunities for browbeating and 'ball
ing up' witnesses a process that spe
cially Impresses ihe public wltb the
sagacity of a lawyer who does It suc
cessfully. Then. If by auy chance I
should succeed In acquitting my client,
my place at the bur would be assured
as that of 'a sharp young feller who
bad beaten the prosecuting attorney
himself.'
"But In telling my client I would
take bis cose tbe demon of humor be
trayed me. Just across tbe street from
my lodging was a negro church, and
there was a 'revival' going on at tbe
time. They 'revived' till 2 o'clock or
later every nlgbt wltb shoutings that
Interfered wltb my sleep. 'Wltb play

"'You seem to be an expert in tbe
arts of arson. If you'll burn that ne
gro church I'll feel that you have paid
me full price for my service lo de
fending you.'
"1 defended htm, and as tbe wit
nesses against him were all of shady

acquittal. About 4 o'clock tbe next
morning a Ore broke out under all four
corners of that negro church, and be
