About Salton Sea.
Mr.. Cass gives an Interesting descrlp-
tion of the complications at Salton sea
In California. although they do not come
under tho jurisdiction OF the service With
which he is connected.
An area probably from 30 TO 10 miles
across and about the Same distance from
the Colorado river is 200 feet below sea
level and below the bed of the river Is
being flooded by the waters from that
stream. 1t was for centuries dry, and
from It has been taken since that region
was settled large quantities Of salt that
settled as the original body Of water
cvaporated. The river. on account OF
containing so much silt deposited II on
either side OF the stream, and the
channel gradually nlled up so that in
time the water ran on higher level and
was prevented from flowing into the de-
preston,
Filling the Channel.
Some months ago an irrigation channel
from the river began to cut deep chan
mel and as II grew deeper tho flow In
creased The surplus water flows into tho
Salton sea dry area and Is gradually hll-
Ing II up, All efforts to dam the channel
or 10 prevent Its cutting deeper have
failed and the result is that q lake Is

Why Censor Stopped Play.

The reason why the British play
censor-a most decided despot-set
his foot down and declared that Mon
ma Wanna" is not suitable for moral
British eyes and ears is rather anus
ing. The ban on the play was due
to the censor's bad French rather
than to any faint of immortality in the
drama. The story goes that the
worthy Briton read along complacent-
ly enough until he came to the sec
ond act, where Giovanni, the heroine,
comes to the tent of the Florentine
general, as he has ordered, clad only
in her mantle. The stage direction
penned by Maeterlinck reads: Clio
wanna entire, nue., sous un manteau."
The censor read sans" for sous"
and was naturally so shocked and
enraged that he forbade any public
performance of the play in Great Brit
ain.
