Fish Lying In Hot Water.

There is q pond on the Lay ranch
at Golconda, which is fed by the wa.
ters from the hot springs. This pond
has an ares. OF two or three acres, and
the temperature OF the water is about
So deg, and in some places where the
hot water bubbles up from the bot
tom the temperature Is almost up to q
boiling point. Recently the discovery
has been made that this warm lake is
literally alive with carp, some OF which
are more than a foot long. All efforts
to catch them with a hook and
line have failed, as they will not touch
the most tempting bait. Anew ofthem
have been shot, and contrary to the
general supposition, the flesh was
hard and palatable. How the fish got
into the lake is q mystery unsolved.
Within 100 feet OF it are springs which
are boiling hot, and the ranchers in
the vicinity use the water to scald
hogs in the butchering season.-Silver
