PACIFIC OCEAN TURNS RED.
A Most Remarkable Phenomenon Is
Witnessed Along the Cali
fOrnia Coast.

Following the earthquake shocks
that visited the California coast pc
culiar phenomena have developed in
the Pacific ocean. Within a distance
of 65 miles along the Los Angeles
county shore line the waters, hereto
fore clear and of the usual greenish
color, have become a terra GOTTA red.
This color line extends off shore for
several miles, and is so distasteful
to the fish family that they have
gone far into the ocean to seek clear
er waters. AT night this colored sea
water gives off a phosphorescent
light that enables one to read aver
age print.
At certain points along the beach
the water has turned into sweet
water that can be drunk. No theory
is advanced except that in the Pacific,
off the coast, the earthquake opened
a assure that forces fresh water and
colored matter to the surface, and
the latter is drifting to the shore. A
tidal wave followed the earthquake.

WHALE LAUGHS AT RIFLEMEN.
LevIathan in Montreal Hnrbor Ducks
from the Bullets from Hum
dreds of Guns,

Montreal's most recent and distin-
guished visitor, the whale, which has
been disporting himself about the port
for the past few days, is still in the
harbor, apparently so taken with the
harbor commissioners recent i'm
provements that he is unwilling to
leave. This, too, in spite of the fact
that Invitation after invitation has
been sent after the poor brute in the
shape of rifle bullets of all shapes and
sizes.
From early morning until night the
Guard pier is filled with alleged sports
men, who wish to get a shot at the
whale. So far the shots appeared to
have no great effect beyong making
him keep under water for abnormal
periods of time. Even Savage rifles
with nickel bullets have been expert
mented with; probably not less than
a thousand pounds have been expended
upon him all told. OF course, if he
stays about the port long enough, some
one will in time land a shot in a vital
place, and then it will be all over with
the big visitor from the deep. Mean
time he appears to stand it fairly we'll.

When Speaker Cannon shall
have given the gavel it's last
thump on his desk for this ses-
sion of Congress, there will have
been recorded an unprecedented
public expenditure. This Con-
gress came to Washington amid
the shock of a financial disturb
ance in the early fall, and it has
made appropriations for the first
session of the Goth Congress that
will exceed a billion dollars.
Only a few years ago the first
billion dollar Congress in the
time of Speaker Reed astonished
the country. Now it has reach
ed the billion dollar mark in the
first session of a Congress, and
there is every possibility that it
will have appropriated two bill
lions of dollars before the Goth
Congress steps out on the 4th of
March, 1909. 1t must be remem-
bered also that this great APP
preparation comes with a nearly
empty Treasury, and facing a
deficit for the fiscal of about six
ty millions of dollars and for the
year ending December 81, one
hundred millions. Nearly all the
yearly appropriation bills have
received consideration from the
lower House, where under the
law they must originate. MOI
one bin has been passed by this
Congress which does not show
an increase above the CORES
ponding bill of last year. This
increase runs over $500, 900 first
in the Indian bill, twenty-six
millions of dollars the increase
in the naval appropriation bill.
The appropriations of this SEES
sion exceed those Of the second
session of the last Congress by
over one hundred millions ofdol-
lars, and to this amount must be
added the public building bill APP
propriating twenty million dol
lars and urgently demanded by
those having close districts
where the distribution of the
money is expected to turn the
tide of votes. 1t is quite natural
from a political point of view
that the Democrats are making
use of these facts and figures in
campaign documents, and are
expecting political advantage
from the record of the party in
power at this time,

JAPAN is UP TO DATE.
Rich of the Country Growing Richer
and the Poor Poorer.
BarOn HIsaya IvvaHaki says His Ma
tIon Is Ready to PROFIT by Example
of other Nations in Solution
of Industrial Problems.

Baron Hisaya Iwasaki, who is said
to be one of the weathiest of the mi
kado's subjects, has just sailed for
England from New York with two of
his brothers and three other fellow
countrymen. In discussing the condi-
ton of Japan, he said that in his ma
tive land the rich were growing richer
and the poor growing poorer.
Have you any poor in Japan?" he
was asked.
"We have" he answered, land they
are continually increasing in num-
bers. The rich are growing richer
and the poor poorer, although the
change is gradual. 1t is due to the in
PRODUCTION of the new industrial sys-
tenn"
The baron said he was glad to see
the new system introduced, but he did
not like the accompanying disparity
asked if anybody had hit on a remedy,
he said:
'That will have to be found by po-
litical economists, won't it?" Then he
added, with a smile:
"Do you think you have solved the
problem here? Perhaps the only real
remedy is socialistic. We shall be glad
to see you put one into effect and then
we may follow your example"
Right Rev. John McKim, Episcopal
missionary bishop of Toxic, Japan.
has arrived in New York on his way
to the general convention of his
church, which is to be held in San
Francisco early in the fall. Bishop
McKim, speaking of the religious con
ditions in japan at the present time,
said:
"The religious awakening, of which
we in Japan have heard so much, can
hardly be regarded as of permanent
benefit. Some years ago there was a
similar one, but its effects soon died
out. The Japanese are a very eXcita-
BILE race; they are quickly brought to a
religious white heat, cooling off again
almost as quickly. As a rule, after a
revival movement, the percentage OF
those falling away from Christianity
is greater than before.
line japanese, too, are a very IN
different race in regard to religious
matters generally. Nominally, they
are almost all Buddhists, with perhaps
a s~prinkling of Shintoians, but it ear
be safely said that Japan has no ma
tional church.
Success in missionary effort de-
ponds largely upon the proper organi-
cation of the system of management
For that reason Methodist workers in
Japan are more successful than the
Baptists. Congregationalists are not
now making the progress that was
made by that body some years ago
Congregationalist policy seems to be
n of disintegration, and many of its
converts become rationalists. Our
church appears TO be making more
Roadway and what appears to be more
permanent progress than any other
body"

sewing; being undisturbed by
callers just at meal time, we had
three square meals a day; as no

mitted to go out we enjoyed two
weeks of good long nights sleep;
and, best of all, a cousin with
four children who arrived to visit
us, saw the small pox sign on
the door and left town so scared
she will never come back. /
wish to thank the authorities,
and hope they will be equally as
thoughtful of our comfort some
time again. Respectfully, Ian
