Mt. Shasta Believed to
 Be Near an Eruption

] Bedding, Cal. Aug. 2 H9 - A theory that Mt. Shasta, long dor mant, is resuming it's early day ac- ttivity and emanating sufficient heat to melt the giant glacier on its slopes, is advanced by many people
 as an explanation for the enormous quantity of volcanic mud that Is flowing down it's sides.
 The inundation of mud has al- ready crossed Mud creek, the outlet for the glacier, and is finding its way into the Sacramento and Me Cloud rivers in such quantities that numbering operations on the latter stream are seriously menaced.
 In it's fight to stop the flow. the McCloud River Lumber company has awarded an $1s,0oo contract to w. P. Briley. of the Fall River mills, who will endeavor to build a barrier upon the mountain at Elk creek, the original outlet of the flew, where the biz break occurred two weeks ago.

CHESHIRE SHERIFF GOES ON WARPATH
Threatens to Shoot Newspaper Photographer

Cheshire, Aug. 2 LF = Threats of violence and a "Passaic strike camera episode enlivened this village Saturday afternoon, when Special Deputy Sheriff Charles Fossett put his hand to his holster and com- manded a feature writer of the Wa terbury Republican. who was in the act of photographing him, to put down that camera or I'll shoot" and later forcibly took the camera from him. Fossett is the center of spir- tied controversy in town as a re- suit of his activities in enforcing the motor vehicle laws.
 The feature writer, who was &C., companied by photographer. had snapped two pictures of the sheriff with a small hand camera while his companion was unlimbering his more unwieldy apparatus. The sher- if, who was conversing with men working on the street railway track, looked up as the newspaperman made the second exposure.
 The newspaperman had returned to his car, and was discussing the next move with the photographer, when the photographer said the sheriff was coming. The newspaper man wheeled around, and fixed his camera on the sheriff. who threat ened to shoot if the camera were not lowered. After pressing the lever. the newspaperman closed the camera.
 The officer demanded the cam era, and when the newspaperman declined to give it up, took it by force. When asked how he expect ed to keep it, he returned it.
 In the meantime a considerable crowd had collected.
