PUM|CE OVER OCEAN
PIPES OF ENGINES ARE CHOKE
AND SURFACE or
SEA Is DRY

SUVA, Fiji Islands, Dec. 10.-Thc
South seas, in the vicinity OF the
New Hebrides was lately filled so
densely with volcanic pumice as to
be a menace to navigation. A
small steamer which arrived hero
after a voyage of 400 miles from
the Tonga group reported that the
volcanic disturbance on AmDr1m is
land had scattered pumice over the
neighbOring sea so densely that the
steamer was barely able to make
her way through it. At first tie
pumice chOked the pipes of the en-
gines, and later became so thick
that the blades of the propellers
could be heard smashing against
it at every revolution.
The obstruction extended nortf
and south as far as the eye COM
see, although east and west it was
confined to a path of about five
miles wide. On the edges it was
more in the nature of floating dust
but in the center there were lump;
as large as four feet in diameter
In parts the pumice was so close
ly packed that the surface of the
water was quite dry and a native
was able to stand on a small planf
which was thrown out on the tcI
of it.

DEER STOP TRAIN
IN OWENS VALLEY
SEARCH FOR FOOD IN LOW
LANDS WHEN HEAVY
SNOW FALLS -

A curious situation confronted an
engineer on the railroad running
from Bishop through the Inyo
county farming district recently, ac-
cording to the Owens Valley Herald.
The heavy SHOWS in the Sierras and
the White mountains have caused
the wild animals of the highlands to
search for food in the lower valleys.
Driven down from the mountains
by the recent heavy SHOWS, a herd
of 80 deer was responsible for the
slowing down of the south-bound
train last Monday. The deer were
crossing the track directly in front
of the train, a short distance from
Zurich station. When the engineer
applied the brakes and whistled, the
deer were within a few feet of the
pilot.
The frightened animals separator
into two herds, part CT them head
ing for the White mountains, while
the rest returned to the Sierras,
from which they had come.

According to Tony Schumacher,
who has been in town for a few
days, he and his partners believe
that with proper handling the plac-

M~OLYBDENITE U

An apparently important find of
molybdenite ore is reported to have
been made by ]. B. Fayant of Col
conda, about nine miles south of
that place. The vein is said to be
four feet wide and contains a large
percentage of molybdenum. Only
superficial work has yet been done.
Owing to the demand for war pur-
poses. this metal is now quoted in
the markets at around $4,000 a ton
for rs per cen or better.
