MAKING INLAND SEA.
Colorado River Running into Sink,
Former sea.

a FOTfUtE ONds
washington. Jan. 1.-THE changes
now taking place in that part OF South
ern California which is now known as
the salton Sink, salton Sea, Imperial
Valley. or Colorado Desert have re-
suited in the director OF the United
States Biological survey ordering an
immediate survey OF the entire area.
what is now a fertile and populous
valley was for many centuries a great
lake or inland sea, a hundred miles
in length. into which flowed the wa
ters OF the Colorado river. Owing to
changes In the course OF the river,
the inflow ceased and the water Of
the lake finally evaporated. AT the
lowest point IN the valley a salf marsh
was left. the bottom Of which was
nearly 300 feet below sea level.
About a year ago an irrigation com.
pany cut a shallow ditch through the
bank OF the Colorado river into this
basin. A little later, at a time when
the water in the river was very high,
the banks OF this ditch we're cut away
and It's bottom was secured out by
the rapid current, so thst now practi'
cally the entire volume n the water
in the river flows into the basin. Dur
ing the past six or eight months thous-
ands OF dollars have been expended
IN various Intellectual attempts to con
troll the inflow OF the river. The salt
marsh has been enlarged TO form
lake forty or fifty miles in length, the
water OF which is rising at the rate
OF about an inch a day.
The proposed surveys will furnish
data for an accurate map Of that por-
ton OF the old lake that lies within
the United states and viii enable the
cartographers OF the survey 10 show,
in correct position on the map, the
numerous towns within the area, the
channels OF the two streams that car
ry the water OF the Colorado river to
the lake. and various other topograph'
Icai features. with this data in hand,
n careful estimate can be made OF the
time II would take to fll this great
lake basin again should the course OF
the Colorado river not be changed.

ERRORS OF SPEECH.
Common Abuse Of the Verbs to Get,
To Lay and 10 Lie.

to Lay and To Lie.
The verb TO get Is one Of our much
misused words. 1t means 10 acquire,
win, obtain. and primarily It signifies
the putting forth Of effort to attain
something. Consequently 1t Is not only
super1uous, but incorrect, TO speak Of
man as getting drowned" or get
ting Sick" and you may unfortunately
have n cold" but it is impossible that
you have got cold" At this mo-
ment no exceptions occur TO the writer
to the rule that got should never be
used in connection with have, which
alone sufficiently expresses possession.
Say 81 have the picture not IL have
got the picture" THE dog has a
broken leg" not "The dog has got a
broken leg" '- ....t4
The irregular verbs lay and lie are
frequently confounded. Lay Is an ac-
tive or transitive verb, and lie is pas.
sive or intransitive. We lay things
down or have laid them down, but we
and things lie at rest. You lie down,
have lain down. will lie down or are
lying down; she lay down yesterday
and IL going to lie down this afternoon.
| A frequent error is to confound the
past lenses OF these verbs one should
say, MARY laid the book on the table
and lay down herself" but the book
lies on the table.

GAS usED UNDER LIME KILNs.
Innovation by Connecticut Company
lis a Success.

The New England Lime company,
of Winstead, Conn, asserts that it is
the first to introduce gas as fuel for
lime burning The method is pro-
nounced an entire success. The grow
ing scarcity of wood fuel led to the
discovery OF gas as a substitute for
wood, and the company no longer con-
siders the gas method an experiment.
The efficacy and reliability of gas
have been demonstrated beyond a
doubt. Had it been impossible to find
a substitute for wood, said a member
of the company, it would have meant
the restriction and perhaps the total
abandonment of the business. Gas
fires are absolutely clean at all times
no clinkers and no cinders-and the
lime produced is much winter than
that burned by wood. Gas also pro-
duces a more intense heat, and conse-
quently increases the capacity of the
kilns. The daily output at the com
pany's kilns is increased from 80 bar.
rels per kiln to 100 barrels, or total
of 700 barrels daily.

well as anybody, and is doing his best to
eradicate the bad blood from himself and
his family by the adoption of simple life
principles
Through the visit of a countryman of
his to Battle Creek, Michigan, while in
this country, visiting the Worlds Fair in
Chicago in 1893, Emperor William became
acquainted with the Battle Creek idea of
simple living and has to large extent
adopted the methods in his family. His
