SILVER HORDE.
LOADS OF DEEP-SEA FISH,
How or by what means they came to be there can only bo conjectured, but nt an early hour yesterday morniug tlio rocky beach between Cliff House, at. Island Bay, and Happy Valley \vas fouiul to lio strewn with cartloads of deup-Ka fish; which had been thrown up during the night. As tho fish, were Quite'fresh, and seemed to bo in a jwrfcotly hoallhr condition, it must bo assumed that they had suffered from a- submarine disturbance of foiiio kind Oγ other. This is fairly certain, as the fish are'nearly all deep-soa fish—-conger-col, ling, hapuka. etc. Tho news of tho silvor horde awaiting anyono who cared to carry a load away •soon found its way to the city, and during tho day eoverol cart-loads'* of fish were brought into town, and a number of tramway employees, off duty, secured a rich harvest of tho very best of fish.
