Eyeless Fish In Boiling' Water. One of the most remarkable discover - les in the shape of a peculiar species of fish ever made on this continent was that made at Carson City, Nev., in 1876. At that time both the Hale and Norcross and the Savage mines were down to what A known as the "2,200 footlevel." When at that depth, a sub- terranean lake o boilinge water was tapped. - This ac ident flooded both mines to a depth df 400 feet. After this water had all been pumped out except that which' had gt th,ered in basins and in the inaccessi le portions of the works, and when the water still had a temperature of, 128 degrees—nearly scalding hot—manY queer looking little blood red fish were taken out In ap- pearance they soneewhet reeembled the :goldfish. — They seemed lively and sportive enough when, the were In their native element—bolling N, ater—notwithstand- ing the fact that t/ey did not even have rudimentary eyes. When the fish were taken out of the hot water and put in- to buckets of coii water for the pur- pose of being- transported to the sur- face, they died as quickly tut a perch or a bass would if. lunged into a kettle of water that w s scalding hot; not only this, but the Skin peeled off exact- ly as if it had beea boiled.
