LOW.DOWN JOURNALISM.
A Newspaper That is Printed Seventy.six
Feet Below Sea Level.

A Newspaper That is Printed seventy six
Feet Below Sea Level.
SO far as is known there is but one
newspaper in the world printed below
the level of the sea. That paper is the
IndiO Submarine, or, as it is now
known, the Coachela Submarine. The
paper is little fOur-page weekly which
does not present remarkably prepos'
scssin" appearance, but it serves the re.
quirements of the community in which
ii circuatcs.
The desert does not present too
abundant facilities for journalism, as
one or two extracts from the paper
itself will suggest, and the Submarine
is situated in the midst of the most
formidable Of the deserts Of California
the Colorado desert of this county.
Regarding the papers recent move
from Indio to Coachella, the editor Of
the paper says:
Inducements of flattering charac-
ter having been offered the publisher
in the way of bonus, we have re-
moved our printing office from Indio to
COachella, a distance Of three and one
half miles. We have dropped from
twenty-five feet below sea level to
seventy-six feet below sea level.
I'VE hit Coachella with dull yet
raucous thud. The low rumbling noise
you heard last Tuesday was caused
by our printing Office making the drop.
1t may be truly said that the Subma.
rine is the lowest-down or the low
downest or the most ow-dOwn news
paper on earth. AS nearly as we can
compute the distance, Hades is about
212 feet just below our new office. The
paper will continue to advocate the
interests Of all the country below the
sea level, and we want you to fire in all
the news you know"
a Short time ago the Submarine
failed TO appear for two consecutive
weeks and the editor made the follow
ing apology and explanation:
