BELOW OCEAN WAVES
JFE AT GREAT AND ALMOST UN
FATHOMABLE DEPTHS.
fctrange and Startling Structures of the
Denizens of the Deep—Creatures Way
Down Have llccn Crowded from the
Surface of the Sea.
For a century or more naturalists have
known a great deal concerning the
marine organisms which dwell in the
shallow water next the shore. They
long ago learned the amazing richness
of these littoral forms. The census of
species amounts now to more than 100,000
distinct forms; it is, however, of late
that they have ascertained that the deep
er parts of the ocean floors have also an
abundant and varied peopling. The
greater part of these shore dwellers are
exceedingly Intolerant of the enormous
pressure of the deeper waters, as well as
of the low temperature and total dark
ness which exists there.
Certain forms have, however, acquired
the ability to withstand theso peculiar
conditions, as generation by generation
through the geologic ages they have
crept away from the realm# of fierce
combat next the shores to the less con
tested fields of the open and deeper
seas. Through all tlio geologic ages
this selection of especially prepared
groups for the singular stations or hab
its of the ocean depths has been going
on, with the result that those dark and
pressure burdened regions aro now ten
anted by eminently peculiar animals,
by species which ever surprise the stu
dent who is accustomed alone to the
forms which dwell near the shore.
One of the most striking features con
nected with tho animals of tho deep
seas is the frequency with which we
find their living specimens which remind
us of kinds which in former geologic
periods dwelt in the coastal districts of
the oceans. It seems that many of these
ancient creatures, when they could no
longer hold their own against the more
highly organized and developod animals
which inhabited the fuvored stations
next the shores, shrunk away into the
deep water, and in that undesired part
of the world found an asylum, where,
amid tho changeless environment, they
have dwelt for ages unaltered. Thus
tho vast profounds of the deop have he
come a sort of almshouse, wherounto
antiquated forms have retired before
the overwhelming pressuro which the
newer and higher life ever imposes on
its ancestors.
JFrom the results of the relatively tri
fling explorations which liavo yet been
made, there seems good reason to hope
that in time we may win from the deep
the nearest living representations of
many creatures which once occupied a
large place in the seas, but now have
abandoned the fields of more active com
bat, which are usually the Beat of the
greatest advance.
In the profounder soas the invertebrato
life appears to have a larger share than
is secured by the vertebrato or back
bonod animuls; yot there are a number
of fishes known in these depths, and it
seems likely that theso tenants of the
deep may be numbered by thousands of
species. Among the finned tenants of
the profounder parts of the ocean wo
find the most startling departures from
the types with which we are familiar in
coastal waters. In general shape they
differ little from their kindred which
dwell in tho Bunlit shallows.
The differences are largely in the
mechanism of the senses, especially of
the eyes. These organs undergo sur
prising variations with reference to the
enduring of the darkness of these deeps.
In certain of the species the sight not
only fails, but the visual apparatus en
tirely disappears; in others the eyeball
becomes very much enlarged and the
norvous apparatus incrassated, and aro
evidently arranged to catch mere glimp
ses of the light. As it is certain that no
trace of Bunlight can evor penetrate
through the deep which overlies the
'•> realm where these animals dwell, the
adaptation of these eyes to the needs of
different vision at first appeared to be a
very inexplicable matter.
Some recent discoveries provide us
with what seems to be an adequate ex
planation of the enigma. It has been
found that certain of the denizens of
the deep sea floors have phosphorescent
parts of their bodies which serve to
give light in a manner in which it is
yielded by the familiar fireflies and
glowworms.
The end secured by these light giving
parts is probably the attraction of the
sexual mates of the creatures. In the
utter darkness of the ocean this indis
pensable end could be attained in no
other way.—Professor N. S. Shaler in
Bcribner's.
What Indiana Worship.
The natural configuration of many
mountains suggests the human face,
and such physiognomies cut out of the
rocks on a gigantic scale are commonly
regarded by savages as objects of wor
ship. Ellen Russell Emerson says that
the Thundor Bird of the Thlinkits is de
scribed by them as a giant man dwell
ing in the sacred hills. Wlion in want
of food he provides himself with a pair
of wings and a mask in the shape of a
bird's head, the latter having a beak as
sharp as a knife and "a tongue that
makes fire."
Thus arrayed the god spreads his
wings and sails over the ocean in search
of a whale. By his side and attached to
his waist is the lightning demon, which
darts upon the prey and fetches it to the
hungry god.—Washington Star.
ELOPERS RETURN.
On© irt Received With Open Arms, hut
the Other in Rejected.
The residents of the quiet little bor
ough of West Hazleton were thrown into
another fit of excitement says the Stand
ard, when it became known that John
Haines and Mrs. Adam Correll, who
eloped about three months ago, had re
turned as quietly as they left. At first
the residents were not inclined to believe
it, but upon investigation it was found
to be true.
It was at first thonght that neither of
them would meet with a warm reception,
but in this they were mistaken, for Mrs.
Haines, as soon as she gazed upon her
derelict husband's face, fell upon his
neck and shed tears of joy.
But with Mrs. Correli things were not
so lovely, for as soon as her husband
saw her he gave her to understand that
there would be no reconciliation there,
and that she could return to where she
had spent the past few months. But
she was not to be put off so easy as all
this, and begged for mercy and wanted
to be taken back, stating that she had
repented and would do better in tho fu
ture, but it was no go. Mr. Correll had
made up his mind, and paid no heed to
her entreaties. She finally wended her
way to the home of her parents, where
she now resides.
About Fire Protection.
Weatlierly's council has refused an
offer from the water company of that
town to furnish the borough with fire
plugs and water for SSO a year. This in
cludes all the plugs lhat may be neces
sary for all time to come. The council
men, however, demand the water free,
and seem to be sustained in their position
by a majority of the residents. They
cluim the company paid nothing for its
franchise, and that it would only be
justice to furnish water without cost in
case of fire. Weatherly at present has
no protection of any kind.
The position of Freeland and the
water company here is quite different.
Tho 1 o.'ouph pays sls per year for the
ÜBC of fifteen plugs and water, making
$225. The area of this borough at
present is not one-half that of Weatherly,
but will be doubled when the pending
petition for annexation is granted and
the town will then pay nearly twice
as much for water as it does now. From
this it may be seen that the people of
Weatherly are asking too much from
their water company or the people of
Freeland are paying too high for their
fire protection.
Plicated the Coroner.
A Hungarian wedding at Slabtown,
which begun on Saturday, collapsed four
days later on account of an unfounded
rumor. The original supply had run
out, and the groom, to do matters ac
cording to the custom, went to Hazleton
to have the order duplicated. His fail
ing to return at the proper time caused
an uneasiness, and a report that he had
been killed on the railroad .rack caused
the wedding party to disperse in quick
order. Returning home in the evening
and finding the place deserted, even of
his wife's presence, he concluded to end
his honeymoon by hanging himself to a
tree close by, but unfortunately ho was
prevented from so doing by some parties
who had more love for the poor district
than they had for the coroner. — Sentinel.
The Price of Oathn.
The exact measurement of an oath,
both in money and punishment, was
taken in the office of a Lebanon justice
the other diy. John A. Rattnzahn was
heard to utter nine separate and distinct
oaths, "not cuss wordß, but big oaths,"
us the prosecutor put it. Alderman Mil
ler figured out that the community had
been damaged $7.07 worth by the pris
oner's utterances, or at the rate of a frac
tion less than 05$ cents for each swear.
Sattazahn couldn't produce the money,
and he was sent to jail for 11 days, or
at the rate of 29$ hours' imprisonment
for each offense.
Killed a Weasel.
J. C. Sneddon, of Eckley, killed a
weasel near that place yesterday morn
ing. A bounty of one dollar is paid by
the Freeland Game Club to any person
who kills these game-destroyers, and
the animal was sent to Hugh Malloy,
who promptly paid the amount. Over
SSO has been paid out for this purpose
this season.

Mlntsrels In Wllkes-lliirre.
Emerson's minstrels played at Wilkes-
Barre on Thursday evening, and were
commented upon as follows by the Newt
dealer: A minstrel show, not a tragedy,
as the heading on the programme of the
good things served up by Emerson's
minßtrels, tits the performance as a nut
does the nut shell. Although the aggre
gation played before a not very crowded
house last evening, yet the audience was
an enthusiastic one, and the bursts of
applause elicited by the songs, funny
things and other delectable articles of
the menu, were the best evidences of
the show being a taking one. The spe
cialty people are men of experience and
ability and do some good turns. The
whole company is well put together and
will make money before tho season is
over.
Connected with it are two Wilkcs-
Barre boys, Austin Walsh and James
C'rogan. Both are are hustlers and are
making things go. Billy Wright, for
merly of Wonderland, made quite a hit.
Bunnell and Adams are a clever team of
musical artists. DeForrest is good.
Charlie Emerson got off some good things
and caught the crowds. Stevens'juggle
ing act could not be improved upon, and
Clifton, the ventriloquist is a wonder.

JEDDO NEWS. '
Miss Kate Dayton, of Mauch Chunk,
is visiting friends here for the last few
days.
Miss Katie Ilarkins will leave on :
Wednesday for Atlantic City, where she 1
intends remaining for some time.
On several occasions we have heard j
that some of our boys found fault with i
the street lamps in Freeland, because ;
thes' lost their way at 2 A. M. while
trying to get out of town. It is also liint
ed that they couldn't see Nicholas Cab

A great many people from this place
attended the funeral of John McGill,

Hazleton on Saturday.
A few of our people went picking
blackberries last week, but were un
successful owing to the crop being scarce.
However, some of them returned well
supplied with apples.
One of the most dangerous places to
be found any where for driversof vehicles
is at the railroad crossing where the
stripping is being done. The bank of
elay and stones that lias been thrown up
here by the contractors completely
obstructs all viow of trains coming from
Freeland, and as tiiey run very rapidly
it will be no surprise to hear of some
person losing their life at this place. It
should be remedied without delay.
Two of our small boys became engaged
in a fight here on Saturday. They pum
meled each other for a while, then
clinched, and when separated it was

an arm broken.
THE CONVENTION.
None of the Candidates Have Enough
Delegates to Win on the First Ballot.
The Democratic legislature convention
for the fourth district will be held to
morrow at Hazleton. The primaries
were held on Saturday evening, and the
present standing of the candidates on
the first ballot, as computed by one of
the aspirants last evening, is as follows:
McNelis, 10; Riley, 8; Myers, 0; Haas, 4;
Costello, 4, and Sheridan, 2. In a letter
to the Standard this morning Mr. Sheri
dan withdraws from the contest in the
interest of harmony. His two delegates
will probably go to Riley, giving the
latter ten. In the above estimate there
are five delegates unaccounted for, but
no matter who gets them no candidate
will be able to control tho convention
previous to the first ballot.
There is considerable speculation as to
how the delegates will vote after the
first ballot. The majority of the voters
on this side are confident Foster will be
given justice and that the nominee will
be Myers or McNelis. Others claim
that money will be freely used to-mor
row, and that Hazleton will capture the
nomination by buying delegates. One
thing to be remembered by both candi
dates and delegates is this: The actions
of the former and the votes of the latter
will be closely watched, and if there is
the slightest proof of boodle in the con
vention the nominee can prepare for an
overwhelming defeat.
The two candidates from this side aro
honest, hard-working Democrats, un
able and unwilling to compote in a con
vention where the nomination could be
knocked down to the highest bidder.
There will be no money in tho contest
from this side, but there will be men at
Hazleton to-morrow who want to see
every candidate stand upon his merits
and not upon the size of his pocketbook.
If the North Side is not given a fair
Bhow it can afford to wait until election
day. The Democrats at this end of the
district do not make any bluffs in
politics. They raeau what they say.
The Plain Speaker this morning takes
an impartial view of the fight, and says:
"The statesmen on the North Side
have served notice that if they don't
get the representative in to-morrow's
convention that they will make other
people hustle at the election. Their
warning cannot be made light of, for
they have on several occasions carried
out that which they threatened to do.
* * * Foster township lays claim to
the nominee because this side had the
nomination two years ago and failed to
elect their candidate. The FREELAND
TRIBUNE, in an article quoted by the
Plain Speaker on Saturday, gives timely
warning that the North Sido cannot be
ignored in this fight."
Sattirdny'B Excursion.
The rain came down in torrents on
Saturday morning while the people were
going to the train to attend the firemen's
excursion. Tho outlook for a day of
pleasure was a most gloomy one, but
those who were determined to go never
wavered and seven cars were crowded
when the excursion started. Three
more cars, Billed from end to end, left
shortly after, and until late in the after
noon every regular train from hero to
the Glen was crowded with people who
could not resist the tempting sunshine
which appeared about 11 o'clock,
From the lower side the crowd was
almost as large, every town in the Le
high and Schuylkill valleys sendingdele
gations. Mauch Chunk," Lansford and
Summit Hill was well represented, and
nowhere in Pennsylvania could a mere
jollier gathering be found than was as
sembled on Saturdny at Glen Onoko.
IlePierro's music entertained those who
danced, and the mamoth pavillion was
continually filled. Everybody was out
for enjoyment and there is always
enough for all when the Citizens' Hose
Company is in charge of the affair. All
honor to Freeland's firemen.
