That Nnw snIt Lake.

Howard j. Cone, who for the pest year
hes been the agent of the Southern Pa
cific Railroad company at Salton, is at
home in South Pasadena on leave of
absence for few weeks. A reporter en-
joyed talk with him about the Salton
sea. or lake. that has caused so much in
terest throughout the country.
Mr.. Cone says temperature of 11S
and 120 degs. in the shade is quite a
regular and common thing at Salton,
but that the few white people about the
station and salt works manage to stand
1t prStty well. They prespire profusely
and drink enormously, all the water
used at the station being brought from
up the road by rail They find that
mixing oatmeal with the water is nour-
ishing and that it prevents illness. De-
spite the great heat, sectionmen work
out in the hot sun regularly, but, with
the exception of the boss, they are Mexi-
cans.
Mr.. Cone brought up some excellent
photographs of the lake, the station and
the submerged salt works, from different
points Of view. He says the inflow and
the evaporation of the water about coun-
terbalance each other, and that there
fore the level of the lake remains about
the same, although the wind sometimes
carries floating debris back and forth in
way to lead to the belief that the water
is rising or falling. He believes it likely
that the basin will continue to fill up
from the Colorado river to level with
the gulf, and that it will be permanent
body of water, with the Colorado flow
ing through it to the gulf.
The salt deposits are entirely under
water, and that industry is ruined. The
warehouse and small portion of the
Southern Pacifics track running beyond
the salt beds are still above the level of
the lake, but the main track is still 1000
feet or more from its banks.-Pasadena

Saving Rent in the city.

ITO Let signs on fats and houses all
over the city are coming down with the
returning rush from mountain and sea-
shore The number of returning fam
lilies who are hiring new dwelling places
calls attention to a way of saving sum-
mer rents which is increasing in popu-
larity each year as the summer vaca-
tions lengthen. Families which expect
to be out of the city from two to three
months now surrender their leases on
May l, put their furniture in storage, go
TO boarding house for the four or six
weeks before the country pilgrimage be-
gins, then return in September or Octo-
Der and hire new dwelling place. In
this way they save at least four, and in
some cases five months rent, $125 to
5000, toward their summer outing.
Real estate men will tell you that it is
almost impossible to rent flats or houses
in the summer at any price. | know

garnished for him at the landlords ex-

The waif of wounded Knee.

On the through train which arrived
over the Rock Island route was party
of editors from Des Moines, Council
Bluffs, Omaha, Lincoln, Beatrice and
Fairbury. They breakfasted at the AL
bany and were entertained by the gov-
ernor and mayor,
In the party was a fifteen-months-ol
Indian baby, which was found upon the
battlefield of Wounded Knee after the
defeat of the Sioux by United States
troops. 1t has been adopted by Mrs.
Colby and was christened Zintke Lanuni,
which means in the Sioux tongue the
waif of the field Of Wounded Knee. 1t
was on the fourth day after the battle
that the child was found beside it's dead
mother. Its feet and one side of it's face
were frozen.
1t was given in care of an Indian
woman to nurse and soon showed no
trace of its exposure and suffering. Mrs
Colby obtained permission to adopt the
child, but she was hidden by the Indians
and it was only by dint of bribery that
its whereabouts was discovered. The
Indians were given orders on the post
trader, and while they were making pur-
chases she was smuggled out of camp
and driven to the nearest railway sta
ton, and thence taken to Beatrice, Neb
Mrs. Colby has legally adopted the
child, and proposes to educate her and
train her to a useful life.-Denver Re-
