 The Corbin Red 'sox have alway, been favorites to the diamond fan. of Norwich but to show what the sports editor of the Norwich Bulle, tin has to say of the game last Sun, day between the Riverview team representing the state hospital and the local nine, clipping received ir this city states In part that the local team put up the best game that was seen on the RiverNew diamond this year. It said that the ninth inning rally of the Norwich team with hits my Mills and Stanley bringing in the tying run, were breaks that would so against any team.
 It said that Lefty Buckland, the husky twirler for the Red Sox was without a doubt the best pitcher that has worked against the River view team this season, while the Norwich pitcher was not up to his usual form.
 The Corbin team is so well liked at the state hospital that they are to play there again on August s. Tobin expects to pull this game out of the fire.

 The Gascos certainly gave the Iron Workers on the new gas house wonderful lesson in baseball at St. Mary's field yesterday when they sent them back to Cherry street whitewashed to the tune of 9 to 0.

VIENNA COMMUNISTS EMPLOY NEW WAYS
 IN DEMONSTRATION

VIENNA, Aug. IA. R-A new method of demonstrat ting has been hit upon by the com munists of Vienna. Effectually to stop all traffic of a street, several hundred unemployed communists and war invalids lay down on the rails of the street cars in the city's prin- cipal street. It took the police more than an hour to clear the tracks so that traffic could be resumed. Whenever 30 or 50 of the weary communists had been induced to get up and seek their repose elsewhere, the same number would stretch out on the rails farther on. The entire performance was a source of unalloyed pleasure for the humorously inclined Viennese.

NATURALISTS OBTAIN RARE COLLECTION ON
 TRIP TO SOUTH SEAS

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug, 13. (P- The U. s. s. Ortolan, a minesweep- CT detailed by Secretary Wilbur for temporary duty with the California Academy of Sciences, has returned here from trip of several months to islands off the west coast of Mex ico, whither 1t took party of sci entists. The expedition brought back many rare specimens of birds, plants, fishes, reptiles, fossils and insects for the museum of the acad- emy.
 The party, in charge of Dr. c. Dal- las Hanna, curator of poleontology in the academy, sailed April 15. bound particularly for the little known Re villagigedo islands, 400 miles west off the Mexican mainland.
 "One of the most striking collec- tions made" related Dr. Hanna, twas of fishes about the coral reefs of these islands. Here abound great numbers of gaudy and grotesque spe- cies showing close relationship to the fishes of Hawaii. These species are slow swimming and persistent iy live in shallow waters. The ques- ton for the ichthyologists to ans wer is how did they get where they are. Vast abyssmal depths separate the Revillagigedo islands from all other known land. Can it be that these volcanic peaks are the above water remnants of a former conti- nent or archipelago now lost be- meath the waves?
 The deep canyons of Socorro Is- land are heavily forested and here we found veritable botanists' par adise untouched by human hands. Strange trees, flowers, vines and shrubs were on every side. Among the trees was one which immediate ly attracted our attention because of the large number of parrots and other birds which were feeding on the fruit. Our Mexican companions informed Us that they knew of no similar fruit in Mexico and thus far il has not been learned even to what family it belongs. It is about the size, shape and color of a ripe olive but there the similarity ceases, be- cause the pulp is sweet and deli cious. It was very useful to us on some of our long journeys overland, where all food and water had to be supply of seeds of the tree was brot back for experimental purposes.
 ''We found the region about the Reyillagigedo islands inhabited by many whales, mothers and young, just as our fathers did in the early days of whaling. They called the place the Cow Pasture for that req son.
 "A spring of fresh water was re- located on Socorro island and mark ed in such way that hence forth it can be readily found. This, the only fresh water within hundreds of miles, was first found by Colonel Grayson, California pioneer who was wrecked on the island in 1869 While getting his scant supply of water ashore from his stranded ves- sel his Mexican boy noticed a small land bird drinking from a tide pool. Investigation shows large spring of excellent water flowing out of lava wall below high tide line, and the lives of his entire party were saved thereby. Although he describ- ed thelocation of the spring and printed it in 1872, many people who searched for it after failed to find it."
