 Salton sea, which has been calm a.
 a frog pond for about two weeks
 suddenly asserted it's powers last
 week. A heavy wind came up sud
 denly and the peaceful sea began tC
 rage. In its wrath it sent huge
 breakers against the s. P. 'sshoofy'
 over which the trains now pass. Two
 ot the three passenger trains which
 go east in the morning passed over
 the "shoo-fy'' all right, but before the third could get across a portion
 of the track was washed away and
 an eight hour delay resulted. The sea is not lowering any. On the contrary, according to Burt Dunlap of Yuma, it is rising one-half inch per day. The rise in addition to the two inches of evaporation shows that a tremendous volume of water is running into the sea. The Colo rado river is quite low at present. The ''shoo-fy'' which the Southern Pacific now uses is the third one that has been built.-Citizen
