INTERESTING COIN
Or. Carl Johnson, Now Visiting Here,
Has One of Them.
Editor Republican,:


In your issue of May 2 | notice
the following:
Coin ninfed In I3O4-W. NJ. Fayette of Bur
lington, Vt, has in his possession very old
apd extraordinary coin. 1t appears to have
been issued in Turkey and bears the date OF
1904. Sultanate of Brunei is clearly engraved
on one side of the coin, while on the other are
characters which are a mystery to Burling'
tOnians
Several years ago, while in the
East, I secured copy of the coin
described and took occasion to look
up its history. Brunei is a semi.
independent state in the north
western part of the island of Bor-
neo, and is governed by the Sultan
of Brunei. The state religion is
Mohammedanism and the date 1904
refers to that religion instead of the
Christian.
Their usual system of dates be-
gins with the negira, or flight from
Mecca, which occurred in the year
622 AID In the case of this coin,
however, that method of reckoning
would make the date of issue 1926
AID, a manifest absurdity.
1t seems probable that,since com
ing into contact with Christian ma.
tions they have adopted our system
of dating from the birth of the
founder of their religion, which is
$40 AID. This would make 1874
AID. the actual date of the coin in
question.
Great Britain established pro-
tectorate over Brunei in 1847, which
accounts for the English words and
numerals on the coin, and perhaps
also for the change in dating their
era from Mahomet's birth instead
of from his flight from Mecca.
| enclose the coin for your in
spection. C,pr IouNsoN

Since Mr.. Bradford assumed

BILE, the work of renovation, rear

plate not only stated number of

tinual addition of facilities tending
to the comfort of his guests.

THE FIRST FLOOD IN
THE BIG SALT0N SEA

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 1.--(Editor
Herald: Toward the end Of June. 1891,
the first known flooding Of the expanr
sive sink of the Colorado desert oc-
Cured. This sink covers about one
half the distance between Yuma and
Seven Palms, on the west side of the
Southern Pacific track, and at its
deepest point, which in itself is an inn
mense area, has been officially reported
as 25e feet below the sea level.
The flood was sudden and unexpected
and caused some apprehension and
much interest at home and abroad.
The flood of waters, it was soon de-
termined, was a sequence of tremen-
dous volume of water which had pre-
viously' swept down the ella river in
Arizona, caused by cloudburst. The
Colorado was already at Its annual
high stage, carrying about as much
water as its banks would hold. When
this Gila flood came down it swept
over and destroyed the greater part of
Yuma and filled the Colorado from
that point down to the gulf as per-
haps it had never been before. That
flood broke through some Of the sand
ridges near the Mexican boundary and
made a channel which DETECTED much
fresh water into the sink spoken of.
When the Colorado flood subsidized the
water ceased to flow into this basin,
and the sea stopped expanding.
Thought 1t Mirage
At the time this occurred the writer
hereof was in the railway mail service,
running between Los Angeles and Ell
Paso. When the water first began
showing itself he was on the return
trip leaving Yuma about 1870 p. M,
accompanied by Willard H. Clark, a
special. When the great body of water
was first sighted it was taken to be a
mirage, one of the finest ever seen on
the desert The whole season of 1891
was intensely hot and sticky" with
much rain on the desert near the Ari-
zona line. The sun was at the right
angle to give the passengers the full
benefit of it's rays; but so absorbed
were we in watching and admiring
this wonderful mirage" that we sat
in the car door for more than two
hours taking in the whole thing glim-
mering to the westward, until Salton
station was reached.
We then learned that our mirage was
an actual sea; we learned more when
it began to get cool; we found that
we had been severely burned on every
exposed portion of the person, and in
haling the hot steamy atmosphere had
seriously affected our lungs. 1t was
many days before we recovered from
the effects of that experience.
The water at the time I write of was
