WOMEN PEARL DIVERS.
Skilful Workers Who Manage to Save
Money.

Pearl-oysters are found at a depth of
from to 80 fathoms. Women who
are employed in Japan for the work
dive TO the bottom without any special
apparatus, and retain their breath
when under water. They disdain the
use of weights to help them in theii,
descent, and can remain below the
surface from one TO two minutes-in a
few Instances as long as three min
utes-without experiencing any ill-ef-
fects. In the cold weather they will

shore and warm themselves at the fires

The hours of labor vary with the

eight hours constitute a days work,
and at this time of year three divers

weather the women cannot work for
moro than one to two hours. The
wages paid range from II to so cents
a day; the highest ever paid is S1.25.

The European diplomats take the
view that Turkey, especially since the
rev olutionary movement, which has
brought into power men, who are con-
sidered irreconcilable on the question
of Adrianople, could not offer more
than what was contained in yester-
days reply to the European Powers.
This, they think, at least justifies the
resumption of negotiations between
the Balkan allies and the Ottoman
empire.
The Turks with their usual shrewd-
ness instead of simply asking for the
Holy shrines and a few more monu-
ments of historic or religious char
acter in the city of Adrianople, sug-
gested dividing the city by the river

the left bank. This would mean tina I

they would leave to Bulgaria the rail-
way station on the line communicate

This, however. does not mean nor
does Turkeys reply say, that il is
their irreducible concession, so that
the way to an accommodation between
the parties may still be left open.
1t is thought that the men now rul-
ing at Constantinople wish to have at
least the appearance of not ceding as
much as their predecessors.

The last official reports on the erup-
ton of the Colima volcano were receiv-
ed from Gov. Portilloy Rojas of Jalisco
and We're dated January 81. The tele-
gram was as follows:
Il have the honor to report for your
information and that of the president
that since yesterday morning l have
been receiving kilograms from the sew
cral political authorities of the state
advising me of phenomena which con-
sist in subterranean numblings and a
rain of sand. The towns in which these
phenomena have taken place with most
damage are: Sayula, San Juan de los
Lagos, Ciudad Guzman Colotlan, Tai
pa, Ahualulco, Tonila, Hostotipaquilo,
Tcocuicatlan, Tamazula, Teocaltiche,
Encarnacion, Teduila. Magdalena, Ia

The fall of ashes here has covered
the ground to depth of half cent?
meter. Subterranean rumblings We're
heard at Colotian, Sayula, Guzman,
Atotonilco, san Juan de los Lagos and
Chapala.
Il thought it prudent to get in touch

acting together, we may render assist
ance to the towns nearest the volcano
which are the most affected Last night
went to the officer of the railway Of
tIicials to arrange for trains to carry
all persons who wish to leave Guzman
and Sayula.
"The jefe politico of Guzman later
informed me that a large number of
persons had left already and that, as
the rain OF sand had abated, the panic
had diminished and many persons pre-
ferred to remain.
Gov. Alamillo, for his part, inform
ed me that the reports had been exag-
gcrated and that there was no cause
for alarm. Notwithstanding this, l
continued to receive information that
the rain of sand and ashes continues,
although not in such large quantities
as yesterday.
AT Sayula the darkness was so in
tense that the street lights had to be
turned on al o'clock in the afternoon
The fall OF sand at this place reached
a depth of one centimeter Today the
phenomenon has diminished greatly |

failing between the stations of La Col

been necessary in many places to clear
the track before the trains could be

| seemed to be confined to a definite
stretch of country, the fall growing
