Sunday morning, clerk in the middle of

through his mind quicker than any flash OF
the telegraph itself. He told the chief
cashier that perhap. the mistake might
have occurred ia packing some boxes OF

sent to Southampton tor shipment. The
suggestion was Immediately acted upon.

Labelling Live Trout.

Numerous experiments and continued
observations, made under the auspices of
some OF the practical piscicultursts belong
ing to the association, have developed re-
suits full of interest and of much practical
value. For instance in reply TO queries As
to the probable age OF the mammoth trout
found in the Rangely Lakes, Professor
Agassiz emphaticalIy declared that no
man living knew whether these six aud
eight Founders were ten or two hundred
years old To get some light on TINS
