WORKED THERMOMETER
GET MKN KETL'ltX WORK
Calexico, Sept. 19.—It gets hot
here. A few days ago It got so hot
that sober and truthful chromieters
declined to quote the figures regis
tered by tested th vmomoter. They
all agree it was over 120 in the sun.
Two Mexican laborers working for
a cement contractor, happeued to see
a thermometer near the scene of
their labors. They went over and
looked at It. Until they did so they
had been warm, but well. When they
saw it. both apparently had sun
stroke. Anyway, they fell to the
ground, writhed, groaned, turned as
near pale as nature permitted, and
emitted strange noises that a blush
ing bystander declined to translate.
The lady of the house where the
thermometer hung saw the two fall,
she brought out some cold water. Did
she pour It over the Mexicans? She
did not. S e poured It over the ther
mometer. reduced the apparent tem
perature to 9$, and showed it to the
, men. They looked at it and at each
| other, quit groaning and went back
to work.

Sious character, and also has shown
to the public that the newspapers do
not print only the sensational, that
they do nto attempt to appeal pri
marily to the masses and that they
do not neglect the church."
As an indication of the interest
taken in the publication of the Bible,
Mr. Carruth stated he has received
inquiries from every state lu the na
tion, many letters from Canada and!
a number of communications from
foreign countries. A number of
Kansas newspapers have taken up
the publication of the Bible since
The Journal started it. Mr. Carruth |
stated. Me said out of about sixty
ministers in Topeka, he has received
communications from all and that ill
only two or three cr.ses had they

BULL POUT QUITE AT HOME
Heroes of This Remarkable Fish
Yarn Furnish Something Now In
Piscatorial Storiea.
One feels almost like apologizing for
telling a dsh story that lso't a bit like
any other fish story ever told since
the days of Jonnh, but Uiere Is one
good excuse for the uniqueness of thla
flsh story. It Is gospel truth, saya
George L. Brown, according to the
New York Sun. The scene of It Is
EJUuhutlitown, a village completely
surrounded by Adlrondacka.
The streams and ponds around
Gllzabethtown have been famous In
their day for Bpeckled trout and more
recently for pickerel, perch, black bass
and bull pout.
Let the humble bull pout be the he
ro of this yarn, the "Sacramento cat,"
as he has been named In California,
the sluggish browser of weedy ponds,
that will live wherever a frog can and
bite anything from an angleworm to
a piece of a tin dinner pall. And the
bull pout's tenacity of life may be
credited with a good share of the
uniqueness of this unprecedented fish
story.
In the days when the thing hap
pened the young fellows of Ellzobeth
town used to go fishing for bull pout
Saturday nights In Lincoln pond or In
the "marsh" not fur away. And on
Saturday night Carl E. Daniel and his
cousin, the lete Arthur H. Norton,
went out and brought home a fln#
mess after midnight.
Carl was tired and he Just dumped
hla bull pouts with the grass In which
he had carried tbem home, Into a
dlshpan. Then It occurred to him to
put the dlshpan In the kitchen sink
and turn on the faucet a little, and he
did so before going to bed.
That's where the story begins. The |
rest of It happened while Carl was ,
asleep. You see. the grass overflowed ,
with the water from tne dlshpan and
clogged the drnln of the sink. And j
then the sink filled up and overflowed.
And then the whole of the ground floor |
of Carl's home, "Colonial Cottage," be
came a pond. And when Carl got up |
on Sunday morning and went Into the 1
kitchen he found all his mess of bull ]
pouts swimming around over the floor i
as happv as If they were back In Lin- '
coin pond.
That's the «tnrv, and If you doubt |
that It happened in Just that way you |
can ask Carl, who Is now head of the !

A Secret Society.
"It would shock, or bore, or disgust
the world In general, I suppose. If nil
the school tenrhers and office workers
who want to :uarry should suddenly
tell the truth. The public prefers to
believe that women cherish their eco
nomic Independence more tenderly
than they ever could cherish husbands
and bnbles, And our pride helps to
keep up the great delusion.
"Many of us. especially the older
ones, would never admit our loneliness
and disappointment, perhaps, even to
ourselves; but the majority, I believe,
have 'had to tell' someone—some
equally lonely woman friend—wheth
er or not we told It in words, the story
of frustrated hopes, of baffled In
stincts, of Imprisoned powers.
"We form a kind of great secret
society. The Initiation lft, mercifully,
gradual; the dues are endless; the
badge may be anything from a com
mutation ticket to a Phi Beta Kappa
key; the password, seldom uttered. Is
always the same—loneliness."—From
"No Courtship at All." by Another
Spinster, In the Atlantic Monthly.
Clever Smuggler Caught.
What Is said to be one of the clev
erest devices ever developed for smug
gling was uncovered on Puget sound
recently 'by federal officers, when a
speedy power boat, believed for sev
eral months to be a successful smug
gler of Illicit goods from Canada Into
the United States, was captured at
Seattle. It had been known for Borne
time, federal officers state, that a
dumping device was In use on some of
the smuggling boats, says Popular
Mechanics Magazine, but a complete
outfit of this type had never before
been captured. Along with the seizure,
more than $2,000 worth of contraband
was tuken, which made It possible for
the government to confiscate the boat.
Climb« Fujiyama Top.
MaJ Orde Lees. British balloonist
and Arctic explorer, has Just com
pleted a trip to the summit of Fuji
yama, the celebrated mountain In
southeastern Japan. It Is said he Is

top of the mountain In winter, which
Is 12,885 feet above sea level.
Major Lees was accompanied by H.

his feat In *48 hours. The last 4,000
