HOT OCEAN BOILS FISH.
Gulf Sailors Report Passing Through
Zone Of Scaldinu Water.

Sailors report having experienced an
unusual sea off the coast Of Louisi-
ana in the gulf of Mexico when the
ships encountered hot water. said by
some Of the mariners to have been hot
enough to scald person.
Several vessels reported having pass
ed through the hot belt. which was
thick with dead fish and embraced a
circle Of the gulf about a half mile in
diameter. The fish were first thought
to have died from the effects Of oil. for
the surface Of the water appeared
greasy, although oil lakes which ap-
pear occasionally in the gulf are al
ways closer to land.
If due to volcanic eruption on the
bottom of the gulf no disturbance had
been reported nor upheaval Of the sea
noted. The depth Of water in the vi
cinity is said to be about hundred
feet or more.

BILL FOR NINE FOOT SHEETS
Individual Towels For Hotel Guests
Are Also Called For.

Two sheets for every hotel bed. the
upper one to be at least nine feet long.
is the innovation proposed by Assem-
blyman Phillips, member of the New
York state legislature.
Phillips provides that the size must
be stamped on all sheets; also beds
must be made up so that the upper
sheet is folded back over the blankets.
This law obtains in various western
states. The purpose is to isolate bac-
terra that may Turk in recesses of the
quilts.
Assemblyman Whitney went Phillips
one better by presenting what he called
pure mattress bill" A statement re-
citing materials used must be attached
to every mattress offered for sale.
Following this. Phillips countered
with another bill making it a crime for
hotel keepers not to furnish individual
towels to guests.

Peary Approves the Plan.
HOLE SHIPPED TO MUSEUM.
lncased In Ancient limestone-Found
In St. Lawrence County, N. Y.

The Museum Of Natural History,
New York. recently received a perfect
glacial pot hole which was discovered
by DIR. Il. o. Hover Of the museums
STAFF last year in Russell, st. Lawrence
county. N. Y. The reason the hole did
not arrive sooner was because 1t could
not be moved until there was plenty Of
snow on the ground to permit its being
carried on a sled to the nearest rail-
road station, distance Of FIVE miles.
The hole is two feet in diameter and
four feet deep, but 1t could not be car
ried away without sufficient rock
around it. 1t was found necessary,
therefore, to cut out a block 6 by 6 feet
to secure the hole.
The rock is crystallized limestone of
the archaean age and contains much
flint. The hole was made by swirling
water and stones.
