Trouble fn the Church.

Some heartless wretch caught two cats
tied them by the tails, and fang them
into the cellar Of Connecticut Church.
They kept pretty quiet until the middle
Of the sermon, when they began to CON-
plain, and the pastor ssernly rem ,rked
"Will the choir please wait until it's SER
vices are required ?" And the choir de-
MED making any noise. and finally, after
long search, the sexton found and re
moved the cats. And everybody is
laughing at the choir, and the way the
members are mad at the pastor goes
ahead of the wrath of the maiden ladies
who owned the cats.

Great salt I.ake.

A gentleman who has been lately sail
ing on the Dead Sea of America" thus
describes it: '.Soon we were on our
way toward the hazy western shore.
As We passed along the sea-gulls
circled around us or hotaed on the wa
ter, their white plumage shining in the
sunlighG. Every now and then a hawk
moth would fit by or alight on the boat;
dragon-hys would stop long enough to-
gaze at us curiously and then spin off
toward the distant islands. Occasional
~ a ~17-year-old locust would hum past
as if to mock at us for ever daring ODE
lieve that this is the Dead Sea Of
America As the bow plowed through
the water millions of small diptera (hies)
would rise from the water whore they
were resting, and cover the bow Of the
boat till quarts of them could be
collected. Wherever we went we OBJ
served the same thing. The water OF
the lake is their home, and they are as
much at home on water as a skipper is
on an Eastern pond. In some places
where it is calm these flies darken the
water for miles. Here mot on the
beach, they lay their eggs; here they
hatch, and here the larvae live by the
million till ready for the pupa state,
when they attach themselves to the sea-
weed fMeatinSS eeesyEeAese n the EEstest
and remain till they emerge as perfect
flies. The larvae doubtless prey upon
the strange little shrimps that live in
the water. There are infinite numbers
of these, as there is scarcely q place In
the lake where a bucket of water can be
dipped without taking up from twenty
to 500 of them. 1t is strange that
people should call this a dead sea- for,
though the number Of species does not
exceed ten or fifteen, there is no lake,
fresh or salt, in the world that contains
half as many living things as Great
Salt Lake
