The ST. Adams Advertiser, in an article
which we have not space for today, but
will copy in our next issue, gives some eI-
cellent reasons why Mr.. Hendee should be
returned to Congress once more but, un-
Outstanding that he declines to permit his
name to be used, the Advertiser fayors Hon.
Bradley Barlow as its next choice. 1t is
very strong evidence of Mr.. Barlow's gifts
as a manager that he has managed to con-
ciliate his old enemies, and to secure the
support of the two rival and opposing St.
Adams papers, with all that implies. But
VIC think the Advertiser misunderst ,nds Mr.
Hendee's position. He is not presenting
himself as candidate. lie is asking no
man to support him. He is willing to leave
the field open to all corners but if it should
appear, as we think it plainly will appear,
if it is not already plain, that the District
can best unite on Mr.. Hendee, he has too
much regard for the Republicans of the
District, and too much interest in the har-
mony and success of the party, to decline to
serve them longer. if they so desire lie
would consider it, as well he might, high
honor to receive another election at their
hands. This is fair, square and commend
able position; and it should encourage his
friends to stand squarelv by him, and not
take second choice, when they can have
their first

Holmes and Emerson.

Oliver Wendell Holmes is a brisk.
witty man, who dresses in the most
charmingly old-fashiOned style, always
with drab waistcoat, and coat that
seems too small for him. lie looks like
q cross between a Yankee and Scotch
man and has q dried-up appearance,
very much like an autumn leaf. But
he has keen eye, that laughs when he
laughs. And be enjoys laughing and
wakes you up with his fun.

ing near Mr.. Emerson in public place

when an enthusiastic fellow, whose
speech betrayed the cockney, rushed
up, seized his hand, and. with his hat

The mechanism of the movements of
the fiyingfish through the air has been
described with much detail by Professor
Moebius, of kiel, who concludes, from
Hshed on the subject and his own, that
the flying fish dart from the water with
great speed without reference to the
course of the wind and waves. They
make no regular flying motions with
their pectoral and yentral fins, but spread
them out quietly, though very rapid Vi
brationS can be seen in the outstretched
pectoral fins. The hinder part of the
body, while the fish moves in the air,
hangs somewhat lower than the forepart
OF the body. They usually fly farther
against the wind tnan with it, or if their
track and the direction Of the wind form
an angle. Most flying fish which fly
against CT with the wind continue in
thnir whole oourca of Aisht ~ tho aanao
direction III which they come out Of the
water. Winds which blow from one side
on the original track OF the fish bend
their course inward. All fish which are
at a distance from the vessel hover in
their whole course in the air near the
surface Of the water. If in strong winds
they fly against the course of the waves,
then they fly little higher; sometimes
they cut with the tail into the crest OF
the same. Only such flying fish rise to
a considerable height cat the highest, by
chance, five meters above the surface of
the sea- whose course in the air becomes
INSTRUCTED by a vessel. In the daytime
hyingtish seldom fall on the deck of the
ship, but mostly i'll the night; never in
calm, but only when the wind blows.
For the most part they fall on ships
which do not rise higher than two or
three yards above The water, when they
are sailing on the wind, or with half
wind, and are making a good course.
Flying fish never come or board from
the lee side, but only on the windward
side. Before vessels which pass between
their swimming schools the fish fly into
the sir as before predaceous fish or
cetacoans.

The Gentleman In Black.

A simple-minded parish priest re-
lated strange story to a company
seated at table d'hote, i'll st. Wendell,
Germany. Satan revealed himself in
horns and cloyen feet, to the eleven
children who had previously seen
the apparition of the Virgin at Mum
cheyies. The little ones first at
tackled him with holy water, and when
he held his ground, they squirted at
him water from the Marpingen well,
and then drove him away with sticks.
On the following day he returned, and
assumed the guise in turn, CT a calf,
hog, a cow, and an ugly black man; but
the children turned on the water,
sharpened their sticks, and gave him a
sound drubbing. The appearance of
the Gentleman in Black has revived the
virtues of miraculous well, and in
