that two fish had been caught on the same fly, so close were they together. The free trout never left it's companion, but sidled with it upon the shallow, and the keeper slipped the net adroitly under, and landed the brace of fish at one sweep. They were male and female trout ono 8 pounds g ounces, the other pounds Il ounces. In the second case pound 5 ounce trout was hooked and played at leisure, and the fish was followed in all it's twinings by roach that would be probably few ounces heavier than itself The roach, however, scuttled off on the production of the landing net.
 The overcrowding in the poorer quarters of London is terrible. A clergyman from the center of London testified before the royal commission appointed to examine into the housing of the poor of England that in his district the average of five families to six rooms is in certain areas rather under than over the mark. At Clerkenwel1 house containing six rooms was occupied by six families, and as many as eight persons in- habited one room. At No. 1 Wilmington Place there were eleven families in eleven rooms, seven persons occupyipo one room. At 30 Noble street five families, or twenty six persons in all, occupied six rooms. Thirty eight people lived in a small house in Allen street, and seven of them in a single room. In Northampton court twelve people lived in a two roomed house, eight in one room. A case of nine persons in one room reported in Northampton street. In Bowling Green lane six lived in an under ground kitchen. At No. New court there were eleven persons in two rooms, in which fowls were also kept. In Tilney court a family of nine persons, five of them grown, inhabited one room, il feet by 8. In Lion row seven persons slept in room which was 12 by 6, and 7 feet high. Nineteen persons. eight adults and eleven children, lived in a three-roomed house at No. 1 Half Moon court; and the witness said he could hardly call the house overcrowded, for he knew of a case of twelve persons in one room in Holborn. At No. 3 Derry street the first floor front room, 13x12, and g feet high, was inhabited by a family of nine, who had only one bed.

MORMON MOVEMENTS.

Two "apostles" of the Mormon kind have, it is discovered, gone to the city of Mexico for the purpose of buying large tracts of land in the northern part of the republic for the use of Mormon colonies. Last fall Brigham Young, jr., and Heber T. Grant went into the Mexican State of Sonora and made an agreement of some kind with Cajeme, the chief of the Yaqui Indians, who occupied 8 large part of the State and had never been subdued by the Mexican government. In January last Mormon colony was establish ed near Cruces, in Sonora, and not far from the shore of the Gulf of California, and be- fore the end of that month two elders who had been laboring in Georgia accompanied seventeen converts to the place, which was called Mount St. Young. Soon after the establishment of the colony John Taylor. the president of the Mormons, paid a visit to the colony in Sonora. Three ''apostles" went with him, as did also bishop, his pri- vate secretary and lawyer.
 These performances indicated to some of the Gentiles in Mormondom that Taylor and his helpers were preparing to transfer the head ters of the Mormon organization from Utah to Mexico, or that they were at least begin ming to build city of refuge beyond the jur- isdiction of United States courts where po1ygamist Mormons could find shelter. Taylor declared that the church leaders had no object in view beyond the support of the colony, and attempted to account for his dealings with the Yaqui tribe by asserting that Mormon missionaries had been laboring among these Indians for some years.
 It would be interesting to know what these movements really mean. Since the negotiations with the Yaqui Indians these Indians have been attacked by Mexican troops, and it is said that they have been conquered. If this is so the apostles who have gone to Mexico may and probably do intend to buy the land which the Yaquis transferred to them. But if they succeed, will the Mormon government, together with most or all the Mormons, move there? For the sake of the United States it is to be hop ed that they will, and for the sake of Mexi- co it is to be hoped that they will not. Probably they will not for they are too well settled in Utah to make such a move adyan- taoeousIy

Bird Life fin New York City.

 A mocking bird on Eighth avenue and Twenty third street sings all night long dur. ing summer.
 Thousands of English sparrows have built their nests this season on the trestles of the elevated railway within six inches of the tracks.
 A lady near High Bridge feeds blind robin which comes daily to her window. How the bird flies and takes care of herself is a mystery.
 There are more species of birds nesting in Central Park than any one area of it's size in the world.
 Some one threw piece of cotton batting on Tventv-second street Five English spar rows immediately a1ighted around it. An old male hopped on it, divided it into five sections. each of which was taken by @ spar row and carried off in triumph.
 The number of gray squirrels and rabbits is increasing so rapidly iu Centray Park that some check will soon have to be devised. Thousands of nighthawks may be heard all night long flying above the city and uttering their peculiar cries. During the day they sit motionless on the roofs of houses digestine the insect life secured at night. Occasional 1y they close their wings at some high alti- tude, and swoop like bullet down through a swarm of insects. During this performance their huge mouths are wide open, and they utter ''jar," or guttural intonation, which may be heard for long distance.
 During the year about 150 species of edi- ble birds find their way into the New York markets.
