DEEP SEA SHARKS.
They Die From the Want of Press
ure When Brought to the Sur

st. Louis Republic.
Fishes have been found. it Is said,
three miles below the surface of the
ocean, and when a speciality has been
made of deep sea soundings, as in.the
voyage of II. NJ. S. Challenger and
others, the very greatest ocean depths
have been found to be very populous.
Plants, on the contrary, do not live in
the very deepest waters, and it is sup
posed, therefore. that the deep sea ami
mails either prev upon each other or get
their food from dead organisms and
plants which sink to the bottom.
The phosphorescent fishes, those
which light up the waves about them so
brilliantly, are found as far as mile
below the surface. The most of the
fishes found in what are the ''abysSal
zones" have only rudimentary eyes.
Some have only long feelers, but these
enable them to grOpe their way about
at the bottom Of the sea. On the other
hand, there are several "abysSal"
species of fishes which have eyes so
large that they are wholly out of pro-
portion to the rest of their bodies. These
are supposed to follow their phospho-
resent brethren, which act as beacon

tunes trackless WASHES.
The light of some of these ocean
lamp posts, which have been brought to
the surface by deep sea dredgers, are so
bright that during the short space the
animal survives it is easy to read by the
light, even though the night be one of
Egyptian darkness"
The reason that fishes and mollusks
liuing even three miles under water are
able to bear the pressure of the waves
above them, which is one ton to the
square inch at the depth of only mile
is.because they have exceedingly loose
tissues, which allow the water to flow
through every interstice as it would
through the pores of a sponge, thus
equalizing the pressure. Indeed, it is
asserted that the main cause of their
dying almost Immediately upon being
brought to the surface IS because the
accustomed pressure has been removed.
According to the naturalists of the
Challenger expedition, all species of
sharks brought up from depth of over
two miles are dead before they reach
the surface

BY ANGRY HOGS.
An Ohio Woman Has to Climb a
Tree to Save Herself.

Mrs. Edward Tracey, the wife of
small farmer living near Columbus,
o., had a terrible adventure some
weeks past with drove of Infatuated
hogs which attacked her, and but for
the ladY's activity, would have torn her
to pieces. The hogs, or most of them,
had on that day been bought by her
husband from drover who had brought
them from an adjacent county, and it
was supposed that the animals were
half starved and rendered desperate.
Mrs. Tracey entered the pen where
they were confined with bucket OF
corn in one hand and carrying pail of
water in the other, when the hogs
rushed upon her, knocking the vessels
from her hands and nearly throwing
her down.
She ran to a small oak few feet from
her, and being an active woman swung
herself by branch up into the tree. but
not until her dress had been torn to
shreds, and her limbs and feet badly
bitten by the bristling, furious herd.
She renamed in the oak for couple of
hours, when she was discovered by
laborer employed on the farm, who with
much difficulty succeeded in driving the
still angry hogs away and assisted herto
the house. She had lost great deal Of
blood, and was unable to use her limbs
for some weeks.

DENY HIS AUTHORITY.
Servite Sisters in Chicago DISC
hey the Archbishop.

CHICAGO, July 3.-For some years it
has been the custom of members of the
Servite sisters and the Little Sisters of
the Poor, two of the charitable orders
of the Roman Catholic church, to sit in
the vestibule of the city treasurer's
office Cd pay days and solicit aims from
the city employees as they came out with
their pay envelopes. Yesterday Father
Muldoon, chancellor of the diocese, by
direction of Archbishop Feehan. Or
dered the sisters to desist from this
practice as unseemly. The Little Sis
tiers of the Poor obeyed the mandate,
but the Servite sisters denied the au-
thority of the archbishop in the matter,
and one of their number continued to
ask aims at the door to-day. What ac-
ton the archbishop will take in view of
this open defiance of his authority is
not known.

Here is an extract from one of her latest

"She poured her very life into the

"The stars, peeping atlength through
the gray, chill night, gazed down in
wonder,
"You have made me live!'' she cried.
"And the poet, being also a man,
gathered her closer to his heart.
''At midnight, when he left her, he
stood CHANGING doubtfully at her her.
''After an, he had merely turned the
cheek; 1t was she who had kissed.
"When matters stand thus the end is
certain"

CHICAGO, July 9.-General Passenger
Agent Carlton, of the Chicago & Alton,
received a letter to-day from Chairman
Finley in reply to his inquiry as to the
relations of his road with the Western
Passenger association. The chairman
writes: "Our circular letter, No. 1928.
fully sets forth our understanding of the
position of our company under the
agreement, which is that, having aban-
doned its essential obligations in its
refusal ~ pay the penalties assigned
against it in the decision rendered in
the matter of complaints with respect
to rates from Kansas City to st Louis,
and from st. Louis to Chicago, it is not
entitled to have the agreement admin
istered in its favor, and we cannot,
therefore. treat it as a member" AS
result of this communication no repre-
sentative of the Alton will appear at the
regular meeting of the association next
Tuesday, unless sent for. Further
more, the company will pursue an in
dependent course until the association
takes some action in the matter, which
it will probably do at once.

COAL FOR THE WEST.

Missouri Pacific.
CHICAGO, July 3.-A conference was
held to-day between the general man
ayers of the Western roads and COM
mittee of coal shippers in regard to the
adjustment of rates on anthracite coal.
1t appears that last month a consign-
ment of coal aggregating $4,000 tens,
forwarded from Toledo to Omaha, was
routed by way of st. Louis and over the
Missouri Pacific. The opinion prevails
that the Missouri Pacific could not have
secured all this business without cutting
the rate. Chicago shippers are uneasy
in consequence, and are urging the
roads leading westward from here to
reduce the rate on hard coal in order
that they may meet competition. 1t is
understood that the coal in question
came from the Lackawanne mines, in
which Gould is said to be interested,
and it is feared that the Wizard is at one
of his old tricks. The conference did
not result in any action by the mana
gers, but the Missouri Pacific coal deal
will be Investigated.
