WORK FOR rHR FISH COMMISSIONERS

The astonishing number OF fish that
have washed Ashore lately has caused
wide and various speculations as to it's
cause. Many believe that seismic dis
turbance of some character in the chan
mel has emitted from the bed of the
sea noxious vapors that have killed the
tish In large quantities. Some believe
that the trouble lies with the kelp, and
that the fish are killed by feeding on the
blossom Of that submarine plant Others
are fixed in the opinion that the whole
trouble arises from the acts of uncon-
sCionable fishermen, who have set off
dynamite shots in the great shoals of
barracuda that lie ahoat in the channel
under the surface. and that will not
come up to the hook and float too low 20
be caught with the gill net. Which
ever, if any, of these solutions is true,
we feel assured that the one which re-
fers the mortality to the fish feeding on
the blossoms of kelp is not. We are as
sured by an observRnt professional
fisherman, that the great bulk of the
hoh ShoO SOAAo eoAOAo MO
and this ia not a kelp fieh. A cores
pondent of the HERALD at Long Beach
says that the mortality is due to the
worms that iniest the fsh this season. !.
This is the time when all diseases, hu-
man and animal. are Rscribed to a
microbe Of some kind, and it is, OF
course, possible thatsome sort OF disease
breeding insect may afflict the fish. But
whatever may be the cause the fact re-
mains that ish-esters have taken fright,
and that the market for food-fish has
almest ''gone where the woodb bine
twinsth." 1t has been, so to speak
knocked on the head. And yet we have
seen as fine, healthy-lookinG fish

The programme for the fiesta de Los
Angeles, as far as it has been devel-
oped, will be an attractive one. The
pageants will be very fine il carried out
on the scale that is now contemplated.
and we have every reason to believe
that they will come up to the highest
expectations. both in spectacular effect
and in historical illumination. We are
glad that the active people Of Los An
geles have taken hold OF this matter
with determined will to make 1t . sue
cess. The city will be the better of an
institution of this kind kept up every
year. 1t will draw people here from far
and near to enjoy the grand pageants
and the attractive advertisements which
will be got up for them. The Mardi
Gras in New Orleans has become an an
nual fete that yearly attracts etran gers
from all parts OF the union to enjoy it's
spectacular splendors. 1t has not only
become q fixed institution OF the city,
but one that, in point OF benefit to it
pecuniarily, is very considerable. Los
Angeles can be made ss famous for her
annual fiesta ne New Orleans is for her
MaTdi Gras festivities. A good begin
ming will contribute much toward this
and we are free to say that those who
have the initial fiesta ia charge are pro-
gressing with their important task very
satisfactorily.

a BIT or RAINMAklNe.
An Effort In the Hebrides Islands That
Was Brimful of Success.

Was Brimful of Success.
Lieutenant Boyle T. Somerville Of
the English navy, who lived many
years in the Hebrides islands, tells the
following interesting tale regarding the
work of a professional native rain
maker. Toward the end of the year,
just after yam planting, there came an
unusual period of drought, so that an in
land tribe in the island of Amhrym
went to its rainmaker and demanded his
immediate attention thereto.
He at once set to work to weave
sort of hurdle of the branches and
leaves of a tree famed for its rain pro-
ducing qualities, which, being finished,
was placed, with proper incantations,
at the bottom of what should have been
a water hole in the now parched bed of
the mountain torrent. There it was
then held in place with stones. Down
came the rain: nor did it cease for 48
hours, by which fjmeithad become too
much of good lining Soon the rain
producing hurdle was quito 10 feet un-
der water in the seething torrent, and
the people, much to their dismay, saw
that their yams and the surrounding
earth were beginning to wash away
down the hillsides.
The lieutenant continues: Now
mark what comes of fooling with the
elementsl No man of the hill country
was able to dive to the bottom of the
water hole to pull up the hurdle with
its weight of stones, so the merciless
rain still held on. At last the shore ma
tives, accustomed to swimming and div
ing, heard what the matter was, and
some of them coming to the assistance
the compeller of the elements was re-
covered from its watery bed and-the
rain stoppedv
1t is such a coincidence as this, hap
pening perhaps once in decade, which
causes this people, now thoroughly
Christianized, to refuse to give up their
rain doctors, although all other out
ward forms of rank superstition appear
to have been freely abandoned. Louis

The idea that this ia to be year Of
drouth is entertained by many who are
not posted from experience upon the
capacity of Southern California to grow
good-sized crops on very little moist
ure. We have only had so far about
inches of rainfall this season. But 1t
has come in such manner as to be
better for the crops than three times
that amount had it come in great foods
at long intervals. We shall. according
to all precedent, have several visitations
of rain before the season is over. We
are liable to have heavy rainfalls mp to
the close Of May, and that gives Us over
two months more that may be counted
in the moist season. We want rain, no
doubt, but we also want soft. sunshine
weather. With modicum of moisture
and = change to our usual genial
weather, the crops will do we'll.
Nothing as yet warrants US in looking
upon this as bad farming year.

A Digraceful Band Of Whitecaps In
Eastern Tennessee Broken Up.

A Disgraceful Band OF Whltecaps In
Eastern Tennessee Broken Up.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Nov 5.-Great
excitement prevails in Sewer county
over the arrest of leading citizens on
the charge of being members of the
Graveyard Host" or Whitecaps
Ten days ago the Whitecaps were
waylaid while or midnight whip
ping expedition and several of them
killed. Since then, it is said that
Isaac Brown and his two sons have
told the. sheriff everything, including
the names of over 100 citizens who be.
long to the organization. Fourteen
have so far been arrested.
About two years ago the Sewer
county Whitecaps first appeared, tn
masked men visiting house where
four women lived alone, dragging the
women from their beds and whipping
them on their bare backs with hick-
DRY switches until they were nearly
killed. The Whitecaps gave them
notice that unless they left in ten
days they would be whipped again
and the promise was fulfilled. Since
this first whipping about fifty people
have beer whipped in Sewer county.
On one occasion an aged man and wife
were whipped because of something
it was alleged some member of the
family had done, but not for any of
Tense of the old people. Later they
whipped negro 80 years old because
he had been making speeches in the
neighborhood for Congressman John
C. Houk. OF the fifty who have been
whipped two thirds are women, many
of them aged and helpless. Seven or
eight deaths have been caused by the
brutalities of the gang.
According to the statement of the
three Browns, the gang called itself
the Graveyard Host" Every mem
Der took an ron-clad oath, the sub
stance of which was that before they
would reveal anything of the work
lngs of the gang they would suffer
their threats to be cut or to be burned
at the stake. Another provision of
the oath was that if any brother was
arrested the others would release
him at all hazards.
