RIO CRANDE RIVER
 HAS LOST ITS BED
 NEAR TEXAN CITY

FL PASO, Tex, July 23.-Again the floundering Rio Grande River has lost it's bed near this city. Act. ing Mayor R. c. Semple and a party of city officials, went out the other day to see if they could find the riverbed, but sand had been pouring into the stream so steadily and so long that at one point southeast of Fl Paso no regular channel could be found
 At this points the. river is yin one place one day and some place else the next Much land has been in undated by the stream as result.
 The Rio Grande lhas been vacil- lating stream for many years and even the International Boundary Commission has kept tab on the line that divides the United States from Mexico, only with difficulty.
 On the Mexican side of the river the land is usually little used. Its market value is estimated in direct ratio to the extent of it's usefulness. On the American side the same kind of land is worth as high as $500 an acre near the city Sometimes. the river has played pranks in it's me andering that have resulted in en- riching some Mexican landowner. Che day the Mexican's land may be worth two or three pesos an acre. Along will come flood or pc ninsula will be cut through by the river and, presto!, overnight the land is on the American side of the river and worth perhaps $500 or $40O an acre. When the reverse ac- tion occurs the loss is not equal to the gain when the Mexican land gets switched, for American land as a rule is cropped or improved or both

Bear Is Shot in Vicinity" by Mine Foreman

While the bull-cook at Nine mile was building a fire in or der to heat tea for the tram crews lunch, a big black bear slipped up behind him and swiped the full grub box, then went back in the brush few yards, sat down on log and proceeded to enjoy himself, says the Hyder Miner. The lad did not try to take the box away from his bearship, but went to camp for more grub and. the foremap's rifle. On his return the foreman shot the bear four times, hitting his vi cinity with the first shot and sending the other three bullets into the same place Having finished his repast, the bear then went away flor his noon day siesta, leaving the grub box to be re-filled.

FIUME, July 23.-Fiume fingers tion of the once world-renowed trade of this port is concerned while the new state of Jugoslavia is pressing forward in an effort tc take the trade with America that Plume held before the war.
 Political quarrels in this city and international disputes keep the wharves of Plume idle but in Jugo' slavia a company has been formed to establish a line of steamers to operate from Spalato, Ragusa and Cattaro to New York.
 Already small steamers are being operated along the whole Dalmatian coast under the Jugoslav flag but they do not touch at Plume, former ly the chief port for this trade.
 The Italian suggestion of a con sortium for the management and amalgamation of the port of Plume and the port of Baross, has been re- jetted by the Jngoslaps, who claim complete sovereignity over the port of Baross and with it the town oi Sussak, all of which, they contend Is in keeping with the treaty oi Rapallo. ia8*
