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 ly* torch hearer* is a fish six feet A HI'IjIT on prohibition The IiOglslature Is Divided and a Wrangle May Follow.

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 If it passed it would make a law Impossible not to violate, and that the necessary vlolat'on would weak en what the present law has ac complished. long, with a tall dorsal fine extend ing nearly the entire length of the body. Along the sides of the body 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 tipped with flaming spots, while along the dorsal surface extends row’ of spots that appear like so many windows through which light Is shining. The Prince of Monaco, In thirst for discovery, la bringing to l'ght many facts by means of his dredge off Morocco. His powerful dredge has already reached depths of clog© on to two miles, and the various kinds of fish he has brought to the surfneo are In many ways re markable. 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 head or mouth. It was of small sire, and the length of the mouth was about four-fifths of the entire body, so that If the body had boon severed behind the head two or three like it could have been stow ed away In Its capacious pouch.
