At Ceur d'Alene.

Norris & Rowe announce that the
Avallons Troupe OF bicyclists will
positively appear with their circus
when they exhibit there. The troupe
is acknowledged by showmen to be
the greatest in their line that has
ever come to this country. The de-
Dand for their services has been
great. At various times different
shows have advert ised that the
Avallons would appear with their
shows but 1t remained for Norris g.
Ro We to offer them the most liberal
Inducements and the young Snowman
finally induced them to sign contracts
for the present tour and SO secured
the services OF an act that has been
the one big sensation OF the European o.
capitals. The troupe numbers seven
IN all, four graceful young women and
three clever young men. They are
Americans but their FIRST big success
was scored at the Paris Hippodrome
after which they went to the I'm
peral opera house, St. Petersburg,
Russia, and then scored numerou.
successes throughout Germany. Mr..
Chas. Sasse is the European repre-
sentative for Norris & Rowe and it
was to his efforts that the showmen
were able to secure the service of the
famous troupe. 1t was thought that
every feat possible had already been
accomplished upon wheel but it
remained for the seven Avalon
troupe OF expert, trick and fancy
bicyclists to show the Unlimited pos
Utilities upon the safety. Their act
is characterized as sensational n tie
extreme. They mount upon each

around the stage rapidly turn single
and double somersaults, they dis

their wild dash 10 restricted circles.
| While riding at top speed they leap

stop the Colorado intake. to construct pipe line and siphon enough water out of the Gulf of California to fill the sea up again, as the sea is two or three hundred feet below ocean level. The man who has foresight enough to seize this opportunity can corner the fish market of the country for he will have his ocean fish where they can't get away and he can plant them so thick he can be sure of catching them when ever he wants to.
 The gentlemen who have these ideas in mind however are afraid to ap- proach the government for lease of the Salton sea as they believe the gov ernment is already wise to another possibility and they want to use this great resource itself. It is con- ceived that great deal of water pow er may be developed by this proposed syphon, sufficient to run an immense refrigerating plant from which pipes could be run under the water cooling it off materially. especially in the win ter time when it is already chilly in those parts. The American seal rock cries could then be transferred from Alaskan waters to the Salton sea where the government could protect them from the invasion of the Jap anese. Scaling would be come home industry and one more possible cause of war with Japan would be removed. The seals would be taken in the winter time when the fur was best instead of summer time as is now the practice.

EFFECT OF THE CIRCUS
 WATER RATE PAYMFRTS
lt is Probable That After This Month Payments Will be Made to a Col

The financial effect of the circus is felt perhaps, by every store in town.
 but the first complaint of the striu- gency which usually follows in the lwake of the circus comes from the water department. Usually on the
 first day of the month. tine receipts at the water office amount to about $500.
 Last Tuesday. the department took in $2O0. Every day since has suffered in comparison with corresponding days of other months until yesterday the difference on the wrong side amount
 ed to not less than $10O0 There is little doubt though. that tine end of
 ten days in which the rates must be paid. things will be evened up. for peo pie will make as strenuous efforts to
 keep the water from being turned off las they did to raise money to go to
 the show
 This is probably the last month in which the people will have to go to the city hall to pay their rates. The council is considering the matter of collecting them through the agency of a collector. This arrangement will be
 wholly in the interests of the people
 many of whom find il a hardship to
 make d trip to the city hall. though that project worked better than it was
 expected it would.
 The extension of the service into
 north Capitol addition has been com
 pleted and water has been turned on.
 As has been stated the citizens of this addition. which lies outside of the city 
 own expense as the city had no au- thoritY to eXpend any money beyond the municipal system. \ similar ex- tension will be madeto the southern part of that addition.

food finds it's way in, while the water already there is constantly taking on a more saline nature through evapo- ration.
 It may be expected as these condi- tions grow more and more strenuous that the fresh water fish will gradually evolve into salt water animals or fol- lowing the impulse of map who adapts himself to conditions, will eventually have to carry canteens of fresh water for drinking purposes. There will sure ly be some interesting changes from the view point of the nature fakir or else the fish will have to die. an all ternative that the sympathetic do not like to consider.
 It has been suggested by one stu dent of natural history that some one with a commercial instinct may make a fortune by waiting until the sea dries up a little more and the fish become so thoroughly saturated with salt that they succumb. The salt in them would preserve them and all the business man would have to do would be to dry the dead ones and box them up for the market as dry salt fish. Another man suggests securing a lease of the laks and planting it to codfish. It will not dry up for a great many years but when the final harvest comes he would be able to practically control the dry codfish market If not enough for cod fish the sea could be planted to bar racuda. mackerel, sea bass and ocean fish They would find enough to live on for a long time to come by eating up the fresh water fish. By the time they were gone there would be enough small salt wate irish for the larger ones to eat and in that way fishing preserve could be built up where the most unskillful angler could be sure of a bite. Transportation facilities would be incompatible for the rail- road is right there.
 If this proved a success. before the sea finally dried up if the promoters were not already millionaires and anx- ious to retire it would not cost a great deal, not near as much as it did to

SAITON SEA FISHERY
 ITS POSSIBILITIES
Some of the Things That Might Be Done to Turn a Catastrophe Into a Blessing.

One of the most interesting sights enjoyed by the travellers over the Southern Pacific the present summer has been watching the fish in the Sal ton sea. When the water of the Col orado river broke into the basin the great fish population was carried with it and there is now myriad of fish of varying size. many of them. like the Colorado salmon. being Of an edible variety.
 So numerous are the fish that where the railroad crosses an arm of the Sea thousands may be seen from the car windows and platforms. sporting in the water under the trestle work and strange as it may seem they are ob- livious to the noise or presence of the train. The dining car employees dump the kitchen refuse Into the water and the fish eagerly dispose of it. The theory advanced by some, is that the fish are starving to death and have learned that about the only feeding place is where the railroad crosses the water. That is the reason they crowd to that point having no fear of the train. They have learned to appreciate the whistle of the engine very much as the farmer boy does the dinner horn and respond just as quickly When it is remembered that the bed of the sea is nothing but sand and salt. that very little vegetation grows along its banks and that little insect life in- fes;s the locality it is not unnatural to suppose that the fish have a hard time to get enough 10 eat This con- dition is worse now than ever since the Colorado river has been shut out and is new water freighted with fish
