HOW THE FISH JUMP.
Acrobatic Salmon that Ascend I6-Feet
Waterfalls.
From tho London Globe.

From The London Globe.
Prof. A Landmark, chief director of
the Norwegian Fisheries, has published
some interesting particulars Of his studies
OF the capability Of salmon to jump
waterfalls. He is Of the opinion that the
lump depends as much on the height Of
the fall as on the currents below it. II
there be a deep pool right under the fall,
where the water is comparatively quiet,
a salmon may jump IS feet perpendicu-
larly, but such jumps are rare, and be
can only state with certainty hat it has
taken place at the Hellefos, in the DRAINS
river, at Haugsend, where two great
masts have been placed across the river
for the study Of the habits OF the salmon.
so that exact measurements may be effect
ed. The height OF the water In the river,
Of course, varies but 10 IL, as a rule,
when the salmon IS running up stream,
10 feet below these masts. The distance
b-tueeu the two 10 80 feet, and the pro-
lessor states that he has seen salmon
lump from the river below across both
musls.
As another example Of high Jumping.
no mentions some instances OF Carratunk
waterfall, Reumbec, In North America,
whsre Jumps OF - feet have been record
ed. Prof. Landmark further states that
when a salmon jumps "a fail nearly per-
pendicular in shape il Is sometimes able
to remain Ia the iall, even II the jump is a
mot on TWO short Of the actual height.
This. he maintains, has been proved by
an overwhelming quantity Of evidence.
The fsh may thou be seen 20 stand for a
minute or two o loot or 50 below the
ode OF the fan IN INC same spot, in a
rambling m0tion, when with q smart
t,yitcn OF the tail the rest OF the fall is
cleared. But only feb which strike the
IAN straight With the snout are able 10 re-
main i'm the falling mass OF water; IL II IL

into the stream below. Prof. Landmark
hei,eyes 10 be the explanation Of salmon

MAN VS.. HORSE.
MervIne Thompson Pulls Against a Big
Bay.


From he Minneapolis Tribune.
A large crowd witnessed the feat OF
strength at Minnehaha yesterday after
noon between Meryine Thompson, the
Cleveland ''whirlwind" pugillst, andTre-
here & Brosderick's bay horse, weighing
1900 pounds. The match was Tor 500
a side aud the gate receipts, and the arti-
cles OF agreement allowed Of any hitch
which the owners OF the horse preferred,
the horse to pull Thompson 0d the ladder
in three trials. They brought along with
them rope and tackle. and when u was
learned that they Proposed 20 use ihis
Thompson kicked. Finally u was agree,t
10 allow the use Of the tackle. \ small,
stout iron-bound ladder, ab0ut6 feet long ,
was used. One end OF this ladder WAS
tied 10 n tree. Thompson, with his huge
leather harness buckled about his should.
ers and body. stretched himself out atiuli
length up0n the ladder, which was elo-
vated about Is inches. Thompson then
took hold Of the heavy round nearest the
tree TO which the ladder was fastened,
with his feet toward the horse. The rope
and tackle was hitched tn n triangular
iron fastening 40 the end Of a wide, heavy
strip connecting with Thompson's mar
ness.
Time was called, and the horse was
urged 10 his utmost. After several unsuc-
cessful attempts the. rope lroke, and the
referee declared hat the horse had been
given fully three trials. The owners OF inc
horse took exceptions 10 this decision,
however, and contended that the triangu-
lar iron TO Thompson's harness could not
possibly be drawn through a staple'ilke
arrangement which had been placed at
the foot of the ladder 20 prevent the
ropes from swaying from one side 70 VIZ
other. IL was claimed that when the
triangle caught IN this staple the rope
broke. .
The referee afterward decided In
ThOmpson'B favor.
