Every newspaper office looks at every
story from Vancouver if a trifie out of
the ordinary with a certain degree or
distrust. They have cultivated the art
of the long bow in Vancouver, and have
cultivated ii well. Here is the latest,
but you needn't believe it unless you
want to:
Joseph Moody, once of New York,
went into Alaska to hunt gold in 1871.
He is now on his way home, having
been recognized by missionary at
Dawson. under whose administrations
he was converted years before.
Moody was carried off from his dig
gings by Swahner Indians eight years
ago. They took him two hundred miles
into the interior of Alaska. For two
years he was a slave to the chief and
then married the chiefs daughter. On
his royal father-in-law's death he be-
came Chief. He combined four tribes
under his leadership and converted
them all
His wife died year ago. and now he
is coming home Laden down with gold.
This is rather above the usual flight
of Vancouver imagination, but will
serve as Il specimen.

One strange feature of this sea life of
the tropics is the regular recurrence of
mig ...ory sWdrms OF fish of very small
size. that return in huge numbers year
after year with such absolute regular
ity that the natives calculate on the
event on certain day in each year,
and even within an hour or two of the
day. One such swarm of fish forms the
occasion of an annual holiday and feast
at Samoa. The fish is not unlike the
whitehall for which the English
Thames has so long been celebrated,
and each year it arrives at Samoa on
the same day, in the month of October,
remains for day, or at the most two
days, and then disappears entirely till
the same day of the following year.
Why it comes, or whence, no curious
naturalist has yet discovered, nor has
anybody traced its onward course when
1t leaves the Samoan group; but the
fact is unquestionable that suddenly,
without notice, the still waters of the
lagoon which surround each island
within the fringing reef become alive
with millions of fishes, passing through
them for "a single day and night, and
then disappearing for year as though
they had never come.
A visit to Samoa enabled me to see
this strange phenomenon for myself,
and to witness the native feast by
which it is celebrated year by year,
Lippincott's.

A SEA sERPEHT STORY
An Instance of How Some Men Will
Stretch the Truth.


A good instance of the manner in
which sea serpent myths originate Is
afforded by certain paragraphs WHICH
have recently appeared IN the AUS
tralian papers. In its issue OF eOlu-
aiy % the Melbourne Argus an
ncuuced the discovery at SuWanaW IS
land by the officer of local steamer
of the remains of Il sea monster lhdl
mad been stranded there some Two
months previously. The creature was
said TO be in such bad condition thal
collecting its remains was most Try
ing task: but two heads, the two Dach-
bones and part of the ribs were Sc
cured. II was stated that there was
but one body, which had a double
SHINE. and two distinct heads; WhlIe
the approximate weight OF the animal
was estimated at not less than seventy
tons. and its length fully sixty feet'
In the issue of the following day the
skulls were said to be about three Ieet
long. and to carry pair OF tusks at the
tin of the lower jaw. On March 2, the
same paper published an announce
ment that E. Waite of the Australian
Museum had identified the remains as
those of "zithold obviously a mis-
print for "ziphioid." 1t would thus ap-
pear that the alleged double-headed
monster of seventy tons weight and
sixty feet length was based on two
carcasses of one of the species of beak-
ed whales. which are of such compare
lively common occurrence on the Aus
tralian coasts. and the largest OF which
is not known to exceed thirty feet in
length!-Nature.

Oregon Girl Kills "A Bear.

A few years ago o. d. Garrison's six
year-old boy succeeded in killing a
deer, and now comes the news that a
200-pound bear was killed a few days
ago by his 13-year-old daughter, Mabel,
says the st. Helens Mist. Mr.. Garri-
son lives on Scappoose Creek. There
are a good many bears there. Mr.. Gar
rison and family, accompanied by Ed
Gore and Paul Bonser, left for a little
hunting excursion to Bald Mountain,
and it was agreed that if bear was
sighted Mabel was to have the first
chance at his life. AS luck would have
it, they had not proceeded far when
one was seen $50 yards ahead. and a
rife was Immediately handed the little
girl by her father, and she was told to
take good aim. At the first shot old
Bruin fell over dead, with a bullet in
his head.

THE BABY.

"She is little hiniering thing"
The mother said:
II do not have an hour Of peace,
Till she's In bed.
"She clings unto my hand or gown,
And follows me
About the house from room to nom
Talks constantly.
"She is bundle full OF nerves
And wilful ways;
She does not sleep full sound at nights,
Scarce any days.
'She does not like to hear the wind,
The dark she fears:
And piteOusly she calls to me
To wipe her tears.

From Deep Down in the Earth.


The arrival at the Fish Commission
OF two living specimens of the Typh-
lomolge Rathbuni has excited much in
terest. These animals came from an
artesian well dug by the United States
Fish Commission to supply water to
the fish hatchery near San Marcos,
Tex. and are among the most interest
ing of subterranean organisms.
The well was bored to depth of
about l.500 feet, but was afterward fill
ed up until it is now only 1873 feet deep.
A flow OF 200 gallons OF water a min
ute j, obtained, and with II water
four varieties of crustacea aid this
/ salamander have come to the surface,
all of which are new to science AS
might be expected. these animals are
blind. and the name given to the sala-
mander is due to this fact. being COM
pounded from the Greek typhlos, blind,
and moge. a kind of saamander. The
second term is in honor of Prof. Rich
ard Rathbun Of the Smithsonian In
sttution.
The larger of the two living speci-
mems is about four and half inches in
length. 1t has a large head prolong-
ed forward into fattened snout, in
which is the mouth. The eyes are COW
cred by the skin and appear merely as
small black specks. The body is sen-
der and ends in a tail, flattened from
side to side and used in swimming.
Projecting from the body are two pairs
OF legs, the forward pair ending in
four toes and the rear pair bearing
five toes, as is customary among sala-
manders. These legs are used in walk
ing, and, though very slender. seem
to possess much strength. as they lift
the body clear of the ground, and by
them it can climb over the rocks piled
in the Aquarium.
The gills are outside of the body and
are just behind the head, where they
stand out after the fashion of an Eliza
bethan ruff. These gills are a vivid
red from the contained blood, and
make sharp contrast to the dingy
white of the skin. The animals often
crawl out of the water on the rock
heap in the Aquarium, and the gills
fall in festoons about their necks.
The general structure is of a larval
type, that is. it resembles the unde-
veloped salamanders of to-day and the
fossils of those of bygone ages. 1t
habitants of subterranean waters are
descended from corresponding types
found at the surface in the vicinity, but
the typhlomolge suggests many prob
lens. AS it presents a primitive type,
it may be an instance of arrested eVo-
luton or of reversiOn. When the an
cestors of these specimens became en-
quilted in the earth. it is probable that
the form now presented was the nor
NAL one and that, in the absence of
light and the presence of other OBJ
stacles to animal life, evolution be-
came impossible and the type became
fixed. On the other hand, this larval
form may be the result of degeneration.
DR.. L. Stejneger of the Smithsonian
Institution has published a brief de-
scription of these interesting animals
and it is to be hoped that more elabor-
ate study may be given them.
