A Queer Fish Found Only in Nevada.

Besides containing the ordinary trout,
salmon trout, silver trout, chubs and
suckers, there is found in Pyramid Lake,
Nevada, fish the like of which has
never been seen in any other part of the
world. This is what is called by the
Indians the "coo-ee- waa.n 1t is, proba
bly,, the ugliest fish ever seen in fresh
water 1t has head one-third of its
whole length, with great, dropping,
sucker mouth, and is covered from end1
to end with ugly, shaggy fins which fori
a sort of name, so that the fish must bd>
thoroughly trimmed-sheared, as it were
before being sent to market. Also the
heads must be cut off as they would dis
gust any one but an Indian. When the
trimming and decapitation are completed,
what remains of the fish tastes like stur-
geOn. The coo-ee-waa makes its home
at the bottom of the deepest parts of the
lake, and is never seen except IN the
season when it runs up the Truckee
River to spawn. The coo-ee waa go up
the river in schools of tens of thousands.
They then swim upon the surface of the
water, like the porpoise, with great
spla hing and plunging. The whites first
saw these fish in the spring of 1860, at
the time of the Piute war. a company
of volunteers was encamped on the
Truckee. In the night their horses,
which were picketed on the bank of the
river, were stampeded. This caused an
alarm, and rushing out, the soldiers
heard great padding and splashing in
the river. In the darkness they sup
posed that a large force of Indians was
swimming the river to attack them, and
they opened fire into the water. They
fired away for an hour or two, seemingly
without effect, as the splashing and
plunging continued. The men were
much mystifed, and though they ceased
firing they still believed the noise caused
by some device of the Indians. The next
morning, however, another large school
of the fish passed the camp, when the
cause of the alarm in the night was fully
explained The noise made by a large
school of the coo-ee-waa can be heard
three or four hundred yards. A specimen
Of the coo-ee-waa was sent to the elder
Agassiz shortly after his return from
Brazil, and he pronounced it wholly new
and unique.
The waters of the lake contain no cray
fish, CLANS, muscles, or any of the water
animals and reptiles usually found in
fresh water lakes and streams .-Neao

He Holds the Fence.

Several weeks ago Detroiter pur-
chased piece of land in the west end
of the county. After the purchase had
been completed he engaged surveyors
services to see if he had been cheated.
The discovery was made that a Inc
fence was over on his land eight inches.
When he went to the owner of the ad-
10 ming property with the statement the
man replied:
stranger, the row about that fence
began twenty-eight years ago. 1t was
then five feet over the line, and the two
men fit and fit until one was killed and
the other was crippled. After while
it was moved foot, and then two other
owners fit and fit until the LAWYERS got
the two farms. The fence was then
moved another foot, and the two new
owners spent half the year in jawing
each othsr and the other half in lawing.
One died and the other got sold out on
a mortgage. and wheL l got this farm
the fence was moved over another foot
Then [ fit and fit, and two years ago was
kicked in the ribs and laid up for three
months. During that time the fence
was moved 20 the present line. So it's
still ON your land y
eyes"
"Well, I 'spose the proper thing is a
row. If you'll go out by the barn with
your revolver I'll come out and hunt for
you with the shotgun. If you GIT the
drop on me don't let go, because 1 shall
shoot to KILL"
1t took the Detroiter some time to
convince the farmer that he didn't care
for eight inches of land, and that he
wouldn't have the fence moved for fifty
dollars, and when he had succeeded the
old man drew long breath of relief
and replied:
THAT'S kind o. you, and it leaves my
boys chance to fit and fit after I'm
gone. hope you amt comm out here
to live alongside O me a''
"No."
"Glad ont If you lease, git some
man who'll want them other eight
inches. The boys and is lonesome for
excitement"

WISE WORDS.

Set not too high value on your own
abilities.
Custom may lead a man into many
errors, but it justiies none.
Man is the merriest species of the crea.
ton; all above and below him are seri-
Gus.
He that will not look before him will
have TO look behind him--and probably
with some regret.
He is happy whose circumstances suit
his temper; but he is more excellent who
can suit his temper. to any circuIn-
stances.
Each man has but limited right to
the good things of this world; and the
natural allowed way by which he is to
compass the possession of these things is
by his own industrious acquisition of
them.
The strong mans heaven consists of
mind, soul, character; it means virtue
which has taken root and fourished
under the blasts of temptation, and holi-
ness which has grown up through sacri-
fee and pain.

name is Gordon s. Hubbard. He it was
who, fifty seven years ago, entered the
mouth of the Chicago river, and, step
ping from his little boat, stood on the
marshy bank and looked over the
swamps upon which Chicago now
stands. lie was the first trader who
ever furnished the Indians with sup
plies at that point, he was ChicagO's
first pork packer, he built the Chicago
warehouses, he raised Perry's famous
flag ship, and with it and three other
vessels founded the Eagle line, the very
beginning of Western lake commerce.
Over half century ago, as agent of the
American Fur Company, he made the
trip between Mackinac and Fort Dear
born twenty-sl times in an open boat.
He is oYel S5 years of age.

CONTENT.

AL day I've been a workin' hard
Down in the blue grass medder,
A plowin' up the mealy loam,
An musin' sorter, whether
Id better put in oats this year,
Or plant the field with barley;
An cogitatin' like, betwixt
I'm havin' quite parley.
Inc April sun is mighty warm,
An down behind the hoIler
L see crocus pushin' up
fts creamy buds of yaller;
The fros', hope, has left the ground
An spring seems really here,
Old Nature dandles in her lap
The smllin' baby year.
The sleepy silence broken by
The sheep bells on the hill,
An all the world seems lazy like,
An kinder soft an still;
heard a robin singin' shrill,
An see jay sail by
1t seems like Natures wondrous kind
To sech poor trash ez /.
Fer I'm homes, jest ez happy
Ez a cat-bird on tree,
An can't help singin'
For the very life of me;
An the fitful, fannin' breezes
From the southland seems to play,
An make me feel like laughin'
In most amusin' way.
Ez the sun to night was sittin',
In purplish bank of gold,
An the cattle was lowin'
An the sheep was in the fold;
Ez looked across the lowlands,
Where the silver river lies,
An thought of all our bounties
Till mist came DER my eyes.
For the Lord is free with mercies,
An with blessings generous, too.
An in His kind benevolence
He brought me safely through;
A happy home, a humble roof,
An plenty's been my lot
Outside of Eden never was
A more contented spot.

How to get Rid of Rats.

Al attempt to catch rats by traps, or
by poisoning them suddenly, will fail.
Old rats know too much and can only be
caught by kindness. To destroy them
give them a good meal every day. Do
not put any poison in the food, but sim
ply prepare dish for them daily, as a
Tree lunch, composed of corn-meal mois1
tened with milk, into which an egg and
little salt ito season. has been beaten.
At first they may not touch it, but keep
it before them. making it fresh daily.
They will soon try little, and if not
Injurious their suspicious will be allayed.
In week or ten days they will expect
it, and every rat on the place will be at
the appointed place for the treat. Give
them plenty of it, so as to induce all the
rats in the neighborhood to join in. Do
not be in hurry to poison them, If
they eat all the food give them a larger
quantity next time. As soon as they
have thrown off all suspicion 90 to your
druggist, get some phosphorus paste, OF
other rat poison, mix it with the food,
and be sure you give them enough and
something to spare, so as to induce all
to eat. They will either be killed or
become so suspicious OF all other food as
to leave. and not a rat will remain.
Hence. to destroy rats take plenty of
time, gain their confidence, and finish
them when they least expect it.
