Resampled001B6DD5 Are Fish Affected RED AND WHITE CHAIN STORES Friday and Saturday Specials by Earth Vibrations The fishing industry an&i gov- ernment experts generally are puzzled over the shortage of the salmon run this year. The short- nge is general, extemling from ) Uget Sou&id 'to Alsisk&lsi &eaters. Practically nothing in nny case. is known of the movements and life of the salmon in the sea, ivhere moat of its existence is spent, because science knows very little about sea life of any kin&I nor of the land ivhich forms the sea floor. Our hydrographers have charted our coasts and is- lands an&I any shoals orrocks ivhich are n menace to nnviga- tion. All this, hoivever, concerns shallow water. The great depths which lie beneath the greater part of earth's oceans remain shrouded in as great a gloom so far as science is concerned, as exists in those tremendous chasms. The oceans cover the largest part of the earth's sur- face. IVe know that some parts of the ocean floor are higher and some lower, that mountain rang. es and continents lie submerged there. IVe have dredged up in nets some of the denizens of the lower depths, ivhose natural phosphoresence or body lights has revealed to us the profound gloom that prevails where they pass their lives. This and the knowledge that submarine vol- canoes exist and submarine earthquakes at times take place resulting in tidal waves is all that science can so far tell us. It is a very little, and the enormous water pressure is likely to pre- vent us for all time from ever increasing our present knoiv- ledge to any appreciable extent. The earth during the past three or four years has suffered from earthquakes to an unpre- cedented extent. Many of them have occurred in civilised lands, and in some cases our instru- ments have located them as be- ing in the savage places of the earth. Recently, however, there occurred a local disturbance a- round Vancouver which, while certainly not an earthquake, re- mains still a mystery. That it was of considerable force is prov- ed by the area that was affected. The indications point to a sub- terranean explosion of some kind in the gulf, but of insufficient force to raise a tidal wave. Is it not possible that it may have something to do with the short- age of the salmon run this year At any rate in Puget Sound? The mere fact that only a few years ago a French scientist proved by a series of experiments that fish were peculiarly sensitive to vi- brations in the water would give some color to such an explana- tion.

Sutton, late Master of the O&vlnance to the Chinese Northern War Lord, has only been in Vancouver a few months, but in that short time he has already made several large investments in Vancouver and other parts of B. C. His most recent large purchase ivas the Rogers building on Granville Street. He now has a plan for building a raihvay into the Peace River country to connect ivith the P. G. E. Raihvay, his idea being to construct a line from Peace River Crossing to Quesnel. He has purchased a Fokker air- plane and intends to use it for air surveys in the interior with a view to selecting the best route for the proposed raihvay. He believes he can secure sufficient English capital to build the line. General Sutton is a civil engin- eer, and previous to the war was engaged in the construction of many miles of railway in the Argentine. He ivas formerly connected with one of the largest British engineering firms, who undertake large construction work all over the world.
