NOTHING ELSE CAN ENDURE.
The Idea of being a mile beneath
the aurface of tho water In the At
lantic ocean carries with It many
■‘.range facts concerning conditions
of the very deep sea. At ouch a
de|»th the water Is so dense and the
pressure so great that glass bottles
fotced down are crushed to powder
and metal tubes are twisted and
fattened out of shape. It Is hard to
Imagine that any living creatures
could exist in such a depth where
the pressure Is two and a half tons
to the square Inch. Every day the
explorers' dredges aro bringing up
curious Ashes with bodies construct
ed with special reference to this en
vironment of weight. •
Their bony and muscular systems
are not fully developed; the bones
are permeated with pores and tls-
eme*. Tho calcareous matter Is at
minimum and the uonos of tho ver
tebrae are Joined together so loosely
that the larger fishes often fall
apart while being lifted out of the
water. The muscles ere all thin,
•uid the connecting tissues seem al
most wanting. Yet these fishes are
aid© to dafrt about and capture their
P»cy.
It Is another Interesting fact that
ho light penetrates these ocean
abysses—all below 1.200 being to
tal darkness—and this necessitates
•uother adaptation of the deep-sea j
Inhabitants. They carry lanterns.
Many of these deep-sea fishes have
sneclal organs upon their sides and
beads that are known to possess a
luminous quality.
One of the largest of these deep

A HI'IjIT on prohibition
The IiOglslature Is Divided and a

Atlanta, Ga., Aug., 3.—As has
been predicted would be the case, the
Georgia legislature has split on the
prohibition question, and everything
Is In perfect shape for a bitter wran
gle that may take up a considerable
part of the remainder of the time
left this session.
The advocates of the Tlppln bill,
cutting down the p©r cent to one
half of one per cent alcohol, and not
excepting druggists, Insist that the
bill come up for action, and the op
ponents of tho measure, believing
It would work dangerous harm to
the prohibition law now In force,
are determined that It shall not
come up. They are prepared to
adopt filibuster tactics to prevent It
from coming up. They malntnln that

Is a double row of luminous scales.
One of the most ferocious of these
deep-sea forms has a mouth full of
teeth that protrude in a most for
midable manner. The fines

along the dorsal surface extends

various kinds of fish he has brought

The last expedition sent out by
the prince brought to light some
unique forms. The dredge brought
up from a depth of one and a half
miles a fish that appeared to be all

was about four-fifths of the entire
