A HORSE COMMITS SUICIDE. E.-The Fshkill Journal tells of a strange case of horse com mitIing suicide. Mir. L. E. Aldridge, who lives close to the Hudson river. saw an old horse belonging to MT. Saunders come out of the barn and stand a few minutes looking out upon the water. He taen went back, and in few minutes came out again, went delib erately to the water, waded into the cove that is inciosed by the Hudson river railroad track, swam through the culvert under the railroad and out into the channel of the river. A man working on the New England railroad pile- driver saw the man9uvers of the horse, and putting out in small boat brought him back On reaching the shore the horse consistently refused to go on dry land. He lay down in the water. houndered about aud apparently tried his best to drown himself by keeping his head under waler This he finally accom- plshed in water not deep enough to cover his body.

A VISITOR FROM TROPICAL WATERS. A rare specimen of a tropical fish was caught recently off Long Branch, N. J., and sent tu Mir. Blacktord. in thin city, who forwarded It to Professor G. Brown Gcode, at Washing ton. This morning Mr. Blackford received letter from Professor Geode, eins winch he aays that the dshis the yellow tail or yes ting, of the Bermudas, and adds: Since it has never before been found north of the Ser mudas, it is an extremely interesting addition to our fauna" Mir. Blackford was asked how he accounted for the presence of tropical fish so far north He said that from time to time tropical fish are caught of the New Jersey and Long Island coasts. He added that he did not think there was any reason to believe that the Gulf stream is running any closer to our coast, although the water is much warm CT than usual at this season. He said also that the presence of such an unusually large number of sharks in the river and bay was undoubtedly due to the large quantities of garbage dumped in the water.-N. r. Eoe- ming Post.

"What would you suggest as becoming to your angel wife?" Il think black dress is simple, tasteful and deed" ''Well, then, Topnoody, suppose you die and leave me widow so that I can wear the color you think most becoming to me- Of course, you can't see me in it. hut it would be such a pleasure and comfort to me to know that l was pleasing my poor, dear, dead hus- band" Then Mrs. Topnoody smiled in such very satisfied way that Topnoody concluded his suggestions were possibly too previous, and he busied himself tying his necktie, while Mrs. T.. distributed the rainbow tints as she pleased.- - *a
