Alice Yeisley and Martha Brayton. He took me
up on condition of being allowed to make the trial
after dark; and about hour ago, as we were
all sitting in that old fishing-boat that's beached
in front of the hotel, Joe came along. His get-uP

a story of being the sole survivor of a ship
wreck which he said had occurred about forty
miles down the coast, and of wanting to raise
money to pay his fare to Portland. Before he was

the crowd for enough, for neither of them offered
to give him anything.

of heavy oil exclusively from the
Wietze districts and 1000 tons
from Oelheim. The total amount
at seven barrels to the metric
ton is equivalent to 10000 bar
rels. The price of crude petrol

$50 and $50 marks per 100 kilos
so that the value of the crude Oil

about 100000 marks, which at

much more, down to the bottom of the
ocean. Fishes have been dredged from
below twelve thousand feet. Under
such diverse conditions of life, we
would naturally expect that their re-
spective inhabitants would present con-
siderable difference in their structural,
particulars, and also in their habits.
To considerable extent such is the
case. But In this connection we meet
with some surprises of quite remark
able character, and which seem to Op>
pose the current evolution theory For
example, instead of the total darkness
invariably abolishing the organs of
vision by disuse, we find that the deep
sea fishes commonly possess eyes,
while only few are blind. In this
connection it may be remarked that
some surface-water inhabitants are
also blind. There are evidences, how
ever. which appear to be characteristic
qualities of deep-sea fishes, namely,
weak connective tissues and extremely
delicate fin muscles, indicating still
water conditions; also thin fibrous
bones, full of cavities, indicating high
pressure conditions. While these Pc
culiarities are doubtless we'll adapted
for deep-sGa life, an idea of their I'M
fitness for superficial waters may be
CLEANED from the following extract
from DR.. Alcocks recent book, which
records his observations as naturalist
to the ship Investigator of the British
navy. He says: when deep-sea
fish is brought to the surface, how
gradually and carefully soever its
bones are often like so much touch
wood and its muscles like rotten pulp,
while its eyes are burst from their
sockets, and its vicera are often blown
out of the body cavity by the expan-
sion of the air bladder" 1t frequently
happens that deep-sea fishes are found
floating helplessly on the surface of the
ocean, with large prey in their stom-
achs. Their appearance under these
circumstances is accounted for by the
efforts of their struggling victims to
escape from their jaws. causing them
TO ascend beyond the horizontal zone
which they usually inhabit. This ex-
plains" observes Gunther, "the fact
that all the specimens known of Sac
copharynx and Melanocetus-d eep-sea
fishes with the same extensile stomach
as Chiasmodus-were found with large
fishes in their stomachs. The speci-
mems swallowed were found in each
case to be in very early state of di-
gestion."
Yet, in a general way. the structural
forms of deep-sea fishes are Identical
with certain fishes familiar to surface
waters, so that they are regarded as
simply being adaptations of existing
surface-water species, and not spe-
cial order by themselves.

GIRL DIES FRoM FRIGHT.

Fear of Operation Sends High School
Graduate Into Fatal Commissions.
Colorado Springs, Col.-Thrown into
a frenzy of fright when informed she
would have to submit to slight sur
gical operation, Miss Susie Herrin, a
pretty High School graduate, who was
popular in the younger social set, died
from cerebral hemorrhage. For hours
three physicians worked unremittingly
to relieve her from the hysteria and
Commissions which followed the infor-
nation that she would have to go I'M
der the knife. They even resorted in
the last extremity to artificial respira-
ton, but after hours of agony the
young girl died.
Miss Herrin, who was nineteen years
old, lived with her mother in No. 314
East Monument street. Her friends
believed she was in perfect health.
There was nothing in her condition
to cause uneasiness to Mrs. Herrin
until she noticed that her daughter
seemed nervous.
'I'll send for the doctor she said.
but don't want the DOCTOR" in
sisted the high-strung girl, who bel
came even more nervous when her
mother persisted in her purpose. The
family physician arrived in the course
of an hour. He found Miss Herrin
nervous and unduly excited, but made
light of her condition.
"a slight operation will be neces-
sary," he said.
Miss Herrin screamed a violent pro-
test. The doctor endeavored to reas-
sure her, but she. went into Mysteries
and violent commissions followed.

'sea-devil' has rod-like barbel rising
from it's head and ending in luminous
filaments, which are supposed to act
as lures for other fishes. According to
Gunther, fishes have frequently been
taken from the stomach of the ''angler"
quite as large as itself. 1t is commonly
from three to six feet long.
The little Melanocetus, which is IL
Illustrated here, is not quite four inches
long, but contains in its stomach a
fish seven and half inches long, rolled
up spirally into a ball. This fish is
also remarkable for having vertical
mouth. According to Gunther, three
specimens of the Saccopharynx Ia deep
sea eel several feet long, were found
floating with fishes In their stomachs
which many times exceeded the length
of their destroyers. The Plagyodus
ferox is about six feet long and very
ferocious. From the stomach of one
were taken several octopods, crustace-
ans, young brama twelve young boar
fishes, a horse mackerel, and one young
of its own species. One popularity is
that it has ribs symmetrically arranged
the whole length of Its abdomen. The
Odontostomus atratus is rapacious
fish whose teeth are SO large as to
prevent its mouth from shutting. The
specimen in the Illustration has swal-
lowed a cuttlefish, whose breadth is
much in excess Of its own body" A
