The Fish Did Not Live on Fira
A paper having appeared some time
since in ole of the sensational London
weeklies in which the phenomenon of the
expulsion of fish from volcanoes was spoken
Of as strange and astounding, Mr. Scrope,
of the Royal society set about explaining
the wonder. The original article, which
bore the title Fish Which Live In Fire"
was by one Rev. w. W. Spicer In his ex-
PLANTATION of the oddity of these fish having
been expelled by the active volcano "a fact
which was vouched for by hundreds of
eyewitnesses), Mr.. Scrope says: 1.-THE
fish did not live below the fire line, as the
sensationalist who wrote the article re-
ferred to would have US believe. His sen.
sationel version of a very simple fact is
only one of several which, ON the authority
of the great Prussian traveller, have been
repeated by compilers of treatises on vol
canic phenomena The simple fact, con-
ceive, is that the fish in question lived In
the open air In crater lakes, such as are fire.
quently found at the SUBMITS of volcanoes
Fine ashes, usually the last product of a
volcanic eruption, form the lining of most
craters. These ashes are very retentive of
moisture, and consequently they often oc-
casion the formation of lakes at the bot
toms of the depressions left by the last
eruption. In the course of time water
from the clouds gathers In these hollows,
and after the lapse of years of inactivity on
the part of the volcano fish of the same
kinds that are often found in mountain
streams and lakes appear in these volcanic
reservoirs. Later on an eruption occurs
and the fish are thrown out with the mud
water, lava and other materials, and then

HER LIFE TRULY SAVED.

Mrs Chas La Point, well-known resident
OF Denver, praises this wonderful remedy.
Her testimony should convince all as to the
worth of the New Heart Cure and Restora-

1894, reads as follows:

Not an Anthem.

w. S. Gilbert told good story against
Sir Arthur Sullivan and himself at the
Savage Club dinner ON Saturday. While
1.-THE Mikado" was in process of incuba-
tion the colloborators decided that it
would be an excellent thing to herald
the entry Of the Japanese monarch by
suitable Japanese tune set to real Jap
anese words; and they appealed to a
gentleman learned in matters concern
ing the far East to help them in their
difficulty. The result was the chorus in
the second act, fMiya Sana, miya
sama," the strains of which are also
heard with such singular effect in the
overture Until quite recently Mr.. Gill
bert and Sir Arthur Sullivan were under
the impression that this air belonged to
something in the national anthem; but
it now seems that they have been badly
sold. A friend of Mr.. Gilbert's, who saw
1.-THE Mikado" the other day for the first
time, has written a letter compliment
ing the author and the composer upon
the general scheme of their local color
but expressing astonishment at the in

lowering Of the flood line of the Sac
ramento River is assured.
The San Joaquin River will become q
deep tidal waterway, over which ships
of heavy tonnage will pass without diff
Guilty to the city of Stockton. Every
creek and branch leading to the Bay of
San Francisco may be converted into
a navigable stream. San Jose, Peta-
luna, Napa and all important cities on
the tributaries Of the Bay of San Fran
cisco will be united with the ocean over
a deep ship canal.
Sacramento City will realize the fact
that screw propellers can reach her
water front instead of the antiquated
stern wheelers that now ply the waters
of the Sacramento River.
The shoals in every shallow river will
disappear, and the friction now exist
Ing between the miners and farmers
will be thing of the past.
These things cannot all be accom-
plished in day, or possibly in year or
years, but surely for California it pre-
diets new era.
We, therefore, desire to bring your at
tention to this important invention, and
ask that the Governor of this great
State be importuned to present the
question of the advisability of con-
structing one or more of these machines
to the Legislature of this State, and
that a sufficient appropriation be peo-
vided therefor.
No delay will be justified upon the
grounds of seeking national aid The
General Government may construct
such machines for her purposes, but
that will not satisfy the requirements
of drainage in California. The State of
California should undertake the task of
self protection, and not rely entirely
upon the General Government for as
sistance.
Believing that some action will be
taken in this line, the matter of building
levees to confine the flood waters of the
Sacramento River within it's natural
stream in times of ordinary flood will
SO be reduced in expense that the cost
of the dredger will be nearly covered
