ELY, New, Dec. ia change occurred
in the situation at the Alpha shaft this
morning which will probably delay the

miners for some time
1t was found that the ground at the
point of the original cavern was still

bring an increase in the movement and
occasion another slide that the bulkhead
may not be able to resist, will probably
necessitate stopping the work of clearing
the shaft until this run can be checked.
While the imprisoned men have been In

A well known travelling representative
of the Southern Pacific is trying to take
advantage oe his competitors by circulat-
ing some weird and fantastic reports
about the novelties of the line he solicits.
According to his story, passengers on
the overland are provided free of extra
charge with fishing tackle, and when the
trains passes over the trestle at Salton
sea are allowed to fish from the car
windows.
1t has long been the custom for the
dining car porters to throw scraps into
the water at certain point on the
bridge, and it is said that the fish can
distinguish between the rumble of a
freight and a passenger as they are
never in evidence except when the train
hauling the dining car comes along.
The gr atest catch was made, so 1t is
said, by this man himself. 1t was a carp
three feet eleven and half inches long,
and he says he stuffed it, but did not say
where.
