A Queer Food.

A most singular food is the larvae
Of fly common in certain portions
Of California and known as ephydra.
This insect is found in such vast guam
titles in Lake Mono, CAL, that 1t is
washed upon the shores in vast wind
rows and can be collected by bushels.
The water of Mono is very singular,
seemingly very heavy and smooth, like
oil, so much so that it resists ordinary
wind and refuses to become ruffled.
When the larvae begin to appear the
Indians gather from far and near and
scrape them up, place the wormlike
creatures on cloths and racks In the
sun and dry them, when they are
beaten up and husked, looking then
like rice. The Indians call the food
koo-chah-bee, and many bushels are
collected at his time That larvae are
nutritious is shown by, the condition
of the Indians, who soon grow fat on
the rich diet. Many birds are attract
ed by the larvae and gorge themselves
with the singular food.

How SMITH. Erfend Got Through.

How Smiths Friend Got Through.
They were out in Kansas about 100
miles and wanted to reach Kansas
City. One of them had a pass for
John Smith and wife. He was John
Smith all right, but his friend could
hardly pass as Mrs. Smith. Although
they were practically without funds,
they boarded the train. Take a seat
in the rear of the car" said Smith to
his friend
Then Smith went forward and sat
down by a young woman. Soon they
were talking like old friends. and the
subject Of tickets was brought mp by
Smith. He asked her TO let him see
her ticket. 1t was not of the variety
that requires the signature of the pur-
chaser.
Smith examined it until the con-
ductor came through, and then he
handed up his pass and the ticket.
Pointing to his friend behind, he said.
THE extra ticket is for him." The
scheme worked. To this day the
young woman does not know that she
was once Mrs. Smith for short ride
through Kansas.-Kansas City Times.

Paris Tribunal Declares There Were Nc
Jap Warship in the North Sea.
Paris, Feb. 27.-The decision in the
controversy between Great Britain and
Russia arising from the firing on the
"Gamecock'' fishing fleet the night Of
Oct. 21-22 by the Russian second Pa
cific squadron commanded by Vice Ad-
miral Rojestvensky has been officially
announced by the international COM
mission of inquiry which sat AT Paris
to investigate the affair. 1t is favOra-
BILE to the ritish. Admiral Davis, the
United States officer on the commits
sion, was seen by sthe correspondent
of the Associated Press, and discussed
the conclusions of the commission and
the general effect of the decision.
The general results of the findings,
he said, are favora BILE to Great Britain
since they sustain the statement OF
facts as presented by Great Britain.
In the first place the commission finds
that Admiral Rojestvensky was re-
spOnsible for the incident and it's con-
sequences. The commission, however,
iustities Admiral Rojestvensky in keep
ing his squadron in state of prepare
ton to resist a possible attack.
The second point of the decision is
that no torpedo boats or hostile vessel
of any kind were present among the
fishing boats, or in that vicinity, and
that opening fire by Admiral Rojest-
vensky was therefore not justified.
The finding shows that considering
the alarming reports which had
reached HMM other words the sur
rounding circumstances of the case -
Admiral Rojestvensky was justified in
not stopping after the incident, but
the commission expresses regret that
he did not make an opportunity for
notifying the authorities at some port
on the English channel so that some
assistance might have been sent to the
damaged fishing fleet
The commission also takes the view
that after once engaging in fire Adj
miral ROjestvensky did all he person
ally could to prevent the fishermen be-
ing directly fired upon. Finally the
decision says the commission takes
pleasure in stating that its conclusions
We're not meant TO reflect upon the
military valor of Admiral ROjestven-
sky.
In other words, said Admiral Davis,
all the conclusions from the British
presentation of facts were sustained
by the commission. This was natural
ly put in somewhat diplomatic Ian
guage But the fact of the findings
being favorable to Great Britain is Tin
questionable, according to Admiral Da-
Wis view.
