Tn. German earn a Nuisance.

Chicago has had an unpleasant expert
ence with the German carp-otherwise
known as "hog FISH" The ponds or la
goons Of Humboldt Park were stocked with
them some twelve years ago. Fourteen
carp, together with large number Of bass
and pickerel, were put in. Now the carp
are estimated to number two million, while
few Of the other fish are to be seen, and
the water is so muddy that it is difficult to
see two inches below the surface. The
authorities have decided TO take heroic
measures to get rid of the carp. Big nets
will be stretched across the lagoons and all
the fish taken. out. The bass and pickerel
will be thrown back into the water, but the
carp, some twenty tons of them-will be
hauled of in wagons and sold in the mar
kets. The park commissioners expect that
the water will become perfectly clear after
the carp are removed.
1t is said that the carp not only stir up
the water by roofing about the bottom, but
they destroy the nests and eggs Of other
fish, thus keeping the other varieties from
increasing. As food fish the carp is nutri-
tious, but of much less delicate flavor than
the bass, croppies, or even the pickerel.
II is the common experience that those
who have tried the carp in their fishing re-
sorts would like to get rid of them.-But-

An important clue in the Dora Cush-

A. +. Barnard and VIM. Aidrich found a
half pint amber, bottle containing a red
dish liquid. The bottle was concealed un-
der the roots Of a birch tree not over five
feet from where Dora Cushman's body was
found. 1t will be remembered that VIM.
Brittele testified that Herbert Poland gave
him a cologne bottle containing a red
dish liquid. and directed him to give il
to Smith Davis. with instructions tn mix
it in alcohol before it was administered TO
Dora Cushman.
Another very important fact, not clearly
br ught out at the preliminary hearing, is
that Davis visited the scene of the tragedy

Rich Ore for BaIIAst.

Five hundred dollar ore is not commonly
used for repairing railroad grades, but $40
600 worth was dumped on the Gulf tracks
near the Arkansas river near Pueblo, Col,
a few days ago. The ore was in three car
loads consigned to the Pueblo smelter
from Creole, and was turned over to the
Philadelphia smelter because the former
plant was undergoing repairs. A carload
of cinders and these three cars of ore were
hauled out on the Gulf tracks and sec
ton foreman, mistaking the entire four for
refuse proceeded 10 strew it along the right
of way. A day or two elapsed before the
loss of the ore was discovered. and the ex-
element that resulted may readily be i'm
agined. When it was found that the ore
had been put on the high ground and that
water fortunately had not reached it and
washed it away, the rejoicing of railroad
and smelter men was pleasing to behold.
Practically all the valuable stuff was gath
cred up and saved.

Detroit and Chicago Foredoomsd.

Scientists at the meeting Of the Ameri-
can association for the advancement of
science at Detroit last week read papers to
show, and gave figures to prove, that the
shore line Of the great lakes is changing
by means of a gradual tilt of the land to-
ward the southwest, causing the water
rise on that shore at the rate of an inch in
10 years. Prof. Spencer said il was only
a question Of time when it will be deep
water fishing where the city of Detroit now
stands. A little later Niagara Falls will
cease to exist, and the waters Of the lakes
will be pouring over Chicago toward the
Mississippi. The work of cutting the
Chicago drainage canal is only an anticipa-
ton of nature, for the fitting of the lake
basin would have produced the same re-
suit in less than a thousand years, but the
full extent of the calamity which will bury
all lower Michigan and make a broad
river through Illinois will not occur until

Millions of dead fish are lying on the
shores of the rivers and canals in Neenah
and Menasha, Wis. The action of the
government in restraining the mills from
using water has resulted in converting the
Fox river and various canals running into
the twin cities, into disease breeding men
aces TO the health of communities. With
little or no current, the water in the river
and canals has become stagnant, poisonous
animal and vegetable matter has developed
in il and fish are dying off in great quaint
ties. The board of health has been APP
pealed to for relief. For the past week or
50 the surface OF the river has been cover
ed with greenish growth of slime like
that seen in the dog days Of July and Au-
gust in dead waters. Not only have cOndi-
tons developed which threaten health, but
the water has become so permeated with
slime and decomposed matter that it can
not be used to make the better grades of pa
per. The government officials have been
notified.
