From the first, it WAS seen that there
would need to be side track on local
branch road, connecting with the Ice
House in Bayou Sara, 1t was necessary
TO facilitate the handling and shipping
of ice, ana early i'll the season it was
known that such track would be laid a.
long the levce Oh the river front Various
circumstances have prevented its being
an accomplished fact. But it may now
he safely asset ted that it will be complet-
ed within The next sixty days. Mr. }. r.

DEEP SEA LIFE.
Purity of Water Necessary For Fishes
at Any Depth.

Purity of Water Necessary For Fishes
at Any Depth.
Results of deep-sea dredgings are
different in different oceans A series
of experiments made in the Aegean sea,
which is q part of the Mediterranean,
seems to establish the fact that there
was an abundance of life in the shall
low water which diminished till it found
a limit at 300 fathoms, below which no
life seemed to exist. 1t was afterward
shown, when repairing a cable on the
coast of Africa, that animals were at
tached to the cable that had been lying
at depth Of 1,200 fathoms. This, how
ever was exceptional for the Mediter-
ranean Both the English and Ameri-
can governments have made extensive
research in the bottoms of different
oceans, with very interesting results to
science. 1t is proved by these dredg-
ings that there is abundant life in the
Atlantic ocean as deep down as $500
fathoms, or nearly three miles. One re-
suit of these soundings was to estab-
lish the fact that there We're currents
reaching to great depths moving in OPP
posite directions, with Is degrees diff
ference of temperature within short
distance.
The Mediterranean seems to be an
| exception to the general rule in the
matter of deep-sea life. The reason is
found in the fact that there Is Shiny
sediment in the deeper portions Of this
| sea that interferes with animal respira-
ton, the same as an extremely thick
dust would in the air. Life is support
ed in the water the same as on land
by breathing oxygen. In the one case
| it is absorbed from the air and in he
other from the water. Pure water is to
the sea animal what pure air is to the
land animal. The sea animal could not
| live in muddy water continuously any
more than we could exist continuously
in an atmosphere filed with dust. 1t
| is thus seen that depth is not the only
condition that affects animal life on
| the bed of the sea. The nature of the
| soil and deposits are factors, as well as
| the temperature of the water. However,
there are certain forms of life to be
| found in the lowest temperatures. But
as is the case on land we do not find
| the same kind of life in the colder and
deeper zones of the ocean as in the
warmer and more shallow parts.
In the cold waters the animals are
| dwarfed in size, somewhat as we find
| them in high mountain regions. 1t is
said that the starfish will grow as large
as pudding plate where the condi-
| lions are favorable, but not larger than
silver dollar in the cold current of
| the Atlantic, which flows southwark.
In some places this cold current falls
to az degrees below the freezing
point of fresh water, at the bottom OF
the OCEAN From the Chicago Times

sum of 80 per diem for their rations.
Furthermore, officers of the American
Navy have to pay out of their own
pockets for the entertainment, not only
of their personal friends, but of officials
the guests of the Nation.
The pay of the enlisted men varies
from 50 per month, received by a third
class apprentice, to $40 per month,
which is the compensation of a chief
machinist. An ordinary seaman re-
ceives $40, a Seaman" $24 and a lands
man." who is an unskilled recruit, SIG
per month. Men in the artifcer's class,
such as blacksmiths electricians, boil
er-makers, etc. get from $35 to $50 per
month. All enlisted men, like officers,
receive their 80 cents per diem for ra-
tons Furthermore, there is an in
crease in pay for each re-enlistment.
Ons important step. conducting to eff
ficiency, taken by the Navy depart
ment during the last year was the ele-
waiting of the status of gun captains,
who are now specially rated as such,
with pay ranging from S35 to $50 per
month. Formerly the gun captain was
chosen simply by reason of his rank on
shipboard; that is. no man could be a
gun captain, however good his marks
manship, unless he held some petty Of
flee, such as boatswain's mate, coxs-
vain or something of the sort. Now
the gun captain is the best shotter and
manipulation Of the weapon in the lat
ter's crew, regardless of his standing
otherwise on board, and he receives ex-
ira pay for his qualities.-From Les

runs, and thinks less of riding cetury
than he does of riding ten miles. In
fact Mr.. Quicker is responsible for the
statement that to ride ten miles tires
him as much as to ride $780, but he can
reel off a century without effort, Mr.
Quicker was a manager for George NJ
Hendee, probably the most popular
amateur this country has even seen.
He is a veteran in cycling, and he is
now engaged in writing a book that
will have tremendous sale, as it fills
veritable "long felt want" 1t is a
complete history of American cycle
racing, something that this country
needs sadly.
Hearing that Fulford, Wheelock,
Blanchard and Pickard, the quad team
which did such good work in the south,
are anxious to race any quad team in
America, Managed Quicker lost no time
in issuing the following challenge:
THE National Track Team associa-
ton will race not only this quad but
any other team in America from one
mile to one hour. AS soon as articles
are signed the name of the team will
be given. The National Track Team as
sociation is doing business at Cam
bridge, Mass, and 203 Broadway, New
York city, and any time q single rider
or a team of riders aspire tn champion
ship honors, or challenge to ride any
man or team in the world for any dist
ance is still open"
Up to the present time no reply has
been received from this challenge, but
the track association people hope that
it may catch the eye Of some of those
who have in the past been so ambitious
to ride to fame and fortune.
Charles River track at Cambridge,
Pleasure Beach track at Bridgeport,
Manhattan Beach track and Berkeley
Oval in New York, Springfield Bicycle
track at Springfield Vailsburg track at
Newark, and the tracks at Philadel-
phia, Washington, Providence, Racine,
Reading, Louisville and Wilkesbarre,
all Of which are members of the Ma
tional Track Team association will
promote big events this year. The
Buffalo Athletic field at Buffalo, which
has already been the scene of many
swift races this year, is also mem
Der, and will join the brigade of pro-
moters. This will insure the enthusi-
asts in those localities of great racing
this year, far better than has ever be-
fore been witnessed
