Second Dead Sea
Off English Coast.

London.-A sea In which moth
ing may live has come into be-
ing off the southeast coast of
England. II Is a second Dead
sea. ~
Formerly this sea abounded
In life. 1t was the home Of the
suceulent shrimp, the merry
mussel, the winsome whelk and
the coy cookie. Now the natural
home Of those domestic dainties
has fallen under a blight, and
they have been obliged to pack
up their shells and silently steal
away.
Pegwell bay is where the Dead
e lies. 1t was once the most
famous of the shell-f1sh areas.
Its downfall is traced to the
sinking Of an oil tank steamer
early In the war. The vessel was
torpedoed one night and thou
sands Of gallons of crude oil
flooded over the Downs.
The Oil swamped the haunts
of shrimp, mussel, whelk and
cookie. They were fabricated to
death. Further sinkings caused
more poison to invade the she'll
fish beds, the shrimps' breed
ing waters, and now the whole
urea is dead.

The matter has not yet been drawn
to the attention Of the City Commits

tention is being paid to the ruling
except by dousing of lights, as will be
noted by the following article taken
from this mornings Tampa Tribune:

use in Tampa is produced either by
water power or by power from fuel
OIL which is transported here in OIL
burning ships, caused Tampans to feel
that the regulations regarding the use
Of electricity should not be the same
here as in cities here coal is used
1t was at first supposed that the regu-
lations would not apply to Tampa on
this account, but later advices were
that they would be made to apply
locally as well as elsewhere.
THE decision in Tampa's case was
regarded by the Tampa Merchants
Association to be so harsh and unjust
that it was decided to ignore the reg

merchants are concerned, they having
wired Senator Fletcher and others
meanwhile in protest, and to get a
decision from the fuel administration
at Washington. 1t is hoped that q
change in ruling will be made. The
