and has been fostercd by the high IT,

LIFE IN OCEAN.

Indian ocean and gives IL as his opin.
lon that at one time there was land
connection between Ceyion and, Mad

wonders Of the deep that his report
grows most interesting. "A very CON
siderable variety Of decp-sca fish was
brought up" he says, AT least half
the number we secured seemed quite

not described In any textbook. Some
Of these had enormous eyes. some

ENORMOUS squids was fishcd out as
well 'ss Jelly fish and gigantic pfawhs
fully six inches long. Some OF these
latter were blind. while others had
huge eyes. but nearly NIL OF them
had phosphoresccnt organs. which
would naturally be due 10 the fact
that they live at depth where al
most total darkncss prevails.
THE blind varieties had enormous
fcclers. or tentaclos. some Of them
extending To twice the length OF
their own bodies. Some forms. such

Business" said Frank Pacheco this

Star reporter; well, l will tell you one
thing. I have started no less than four
different barber shops in Honolulu, the
Silent, the Criterion, the Union, and
my present establishment, but without
exception the most successful of them
all is my present location. Business
with me has been most excellent ever
since 1 opened my own place last week.
The patronage that has come to me
has been of the most hattering kind
and, whatever may be the experience
of other places in the city, / certainly
have no cause to complain. Business
has been splendid.
you can see for yourself that my
self and my force are constantly occu-
pied with customers We are able to
give the public the best of service as
well as the very latest appliances
known to the BARRIERS profession, and
pit is only natural that business should
have steadily increased as it has done
since l opened this shop"

IS
MUCH WORRIED
WILL QUIT SHOW BUSINESS, HE
SAYS. AND RETURN TO HIS
FABULOUS DESERT MINE.

PORTLAND, Or, Thursday, March
22-Walter Scott, the Death Valley
miner, is going to quit thu show bust
ness, he says, and return to his fabu-
lous desert mine. There will be no cam
ceiling of dates until he reaches San
Francisco or Los Angeles, unless he
should be arrested in the meantime.
Scotty is worried there is no doubt
about it. One minute he dares his enc
mics to come on, and the next asks how
to avoid being put in Jail.
Scotty says that there are a number
of persons who know where his rich
mine is and that they are attempting
to jump his claim To prevent such an
action he may ring the curtain down
upon his show and go to his camp as
fast as his mule Slim can take him.
I've got my mine protected by arm
ed men, said Scotty this morning, and
they will shoot if anyone tries to jump
the claim. But l must be there to look
after matters. The dogs think that
once they get me in jail l cannot COM
municate with the outside world and
then they can get my mine. But L
this show business. It's too slow for
me, and there is not money enough in
it,
Let them arrest me- l am not
afraid of the dogs. They can arrest
me and be eternally damned"
Five minutes later Scottly changed
his tune
Suppose they do arrest me" he ask
ed, "can l get out on bail? have the
money ready to put up l do not
want to be arrested. l want to go
back to the mine"
Scotty is so harass d in his own mind
that he is not himself A week ago
when he visited Portland before the
threats If arrest were made he was as
light-hearted as a schoolboy, but now
he is so nervous that n cannot sit in
a chair for ten minutes. He is so pre-
occupied with his own thoughts that
he forgets to order the drinks. He
buys a newspaper and reads what it
has to say about him thln bursts out
in bNvado.
This miXup began about three years
ago, when l went to New York to see
some people to get grubstaked," said
Scotty. Il told them / had a mine
and wanted money to work it, They
would notl listen to me. and ! had to
go it alone. | made the strike, have
millions and now those pups want to
get half of it. I'll see them in HI
first"
Scotty is not spending any money
at this time in Portland He buys a
few drinks but does not offer tips. He
turns down men who want funds. He
is occupying the cheapest room at the
Portland Hotel The best i'm the house
is no longer for him, His brother Bill
is no longer even stopping at the Port
land.
