NO MORE FOOLISH MURRE EGGS.
4 Measure TO Protect the Sea Birds on
the Farrallones.

the FarrallOnes.
At the solicitation OF the commission on
Bird protection OF the American 0rnithol-
ogists' Union, of which Professor Leverett
NJ. LOOMS, OF the California Academy OF
Sciences, Is a member. the Lighthouse Board
Mt Washington has issued n decree that the
importing OF the eggs OF the sea birds from
the Farrallones must cease.
The eggs OF the murre, or foolish guile
mot, have been shipped to the markets OF
San Francisco in great quantities since lSi9,
ut which date they were almost the only
fresh eggs to DO had, bringing over 81 II
dozen. The birds were present In the breed
ing season, from May until August, on the
islands in such countless thousands that, al
though persistently robbed, their numbers
seemed 10 show no appreciabIe diminution.
In recent years, however, naturalists have
noticed the effect Of the annual persecution
Of tho vast colonies, and have feared that
they might become extinct. As q result OF
the Investigation, tho prohibttive measure
has been enacted.
As high rs 20. 900 dozen OF tho egSss were
annually brought to market by the Greek
aud Italian fishermen. They are twice the
size Of the ordinary hens egg, for which
thew are said to he an excellent substitute,
aud they sold ut retail from fifteen to twenty
live cents per dozen. During he past four
or five seasons the Greeks have been driven
Off, and the egg industry has been carried
on by tho lighthouse keepers Of the Farral-
lones.

The rather frequent shocks OF earthquake
which the section OF the country about Salt
Lake City, Utah, has experienced within the

form OF n volcano, which has burst out Of
the Great Salt Lake, n short distance south
Of ~Promontory Station, on the Central Pa

The volcano is right in the lake, about a
mile and u quarter from the shore, and par
ties residing IN the neighborhood say that
the cloud Of smoke rushes up into the mir so
high that 1t may be seen ut n good distance,
and the water in the vicinity boils and surges
INTO a sea OF form.
The volcano Is situated in the big arm Of
the lake, on the west side OF the long range
OF mountains, visible from Brigham City. II
has been In action several days. 1t began
with II small cloud and slight disturbances
of the water, and has increased until now 1t
is u most formidable looking phenomenon
and has had the effect Of creating fear and

BURGLARS AT JERMYN.
The Store Of M. J. Neary Entered.
Milk and Butter Stolen
on Hill Street.
Special to the Scranton Tribune.

Jermyn, June 27.-On Friday eve
ming two men gained an entrance
through a back window into the store
of M. j. Ncary. They took a quantity
of canned goods, shoes and various
other goods and laid them on the
store stoop. They then again entered
and quietly crept to Mr.. Neary's sleep
ing room. Mrs. Neary, who was awake
at the time, saw a man, creeping into
the room. She at once aroused her
husband who gave chase to the rob-
bers, and followed as far as the house
of ID. G. Williams, but they kept gain
ing on Mr.. Neary, and he gave up the
race before he discovered who they
were.
Between Saturday night and Sunday
morning some one broke into the house
of Gus Borjk, on Hill street, and took
all the pals milk, cream, butter,
bread, and in fact everything they
could take, which left the family in
destitute circumstances.

PlTTSTON HAD A DRY SUNDAY.
Mayor MalOney Orders Everything
Closed and He Is Obcyed.

Special to the scranton tribune.
Pittston, June 27.-For the first time
in the history of the world Pittson,
today experienced dry Sunday. Every
thing was closed up tighter than the
men who crowded the cars returning
from Duryea in the evening, and it
was simply impossible to get any
thing but soda-water unless you took
the advice of the saloonkeepers on
Saturday night or had a good neigh
Dor who had made proper provision
for the day.
Last Sunday was pay Sunday" here
and there was whole lot of bother.
Mayor Maloney determined that the
thing should not reoccur and on Satur-
day morning issued a manifesto de-
claring for dry Sundays hereafter.
For fear some saloonkeeper might
not read the proclamation, or reading
it might neglect to heed it because Of
it being too novel to be anything but a
joke, Chief of Police LOTUS was dis
patched on a round of the saloons with
special warning to each and every
one of them that the mayor meant
side doors and back doors also when he
said CLOSED"
The mandate was obeyed to the let
ter throughout this whole city; at
least Chief Lotus said neither he nor
any of his men could find any viola
tions of the law.

RAN A RACE WITH DEATH.
Banker Saved by Trip TO Paris from
Bite of Cat.

Says an Eatonville, Ca, dispatch of
recent date: Is. w. Hunt, the leading
banker of Putnam county, has returned
to his home here from Paris, where he
was successfully given the preventive
treatment at the Pasteur institute for
hydrophobia. He had been bitten two
months ago by a sick cat. Suspecting
the contagion of rabies he went to New
York, and upon medical advice there
took the fastest steamer to Paris,
counting the days and reaching the
institute barely within the required
period. While undergoing the 1S-day
treatment he was informed from New
York by cable that incubation upon
other animals under supervision of the
New York board of health conclusively
proved that the cat had died of hy-
drophobia.
Mr.. Hunt, who was constantly at
tended by his wife, comes back in ex-
cellent health, despite an incidental at
tack of grip,and firmly convinced that
nothing but his swift flight to Europe
saved his life.
