A PECULIAR KIND of shelllsh the like of which
has never been seen on the sound, was fshed
out of 200 feet of water near Five Mile Point
yesterday morning by rock cod fisherman,
says the Seattle (Wash.) -Intelligencer
The man felt tug at his line and began pulling

shells of the fish were imbedded in the rock
and as soon as the rock was taken out Of the
water the fish craned their long neckS out Of the
shells just as a turtle would. The neckS of the
fish were unlike anything the fishermen had
ever seen; they resembled slightly the yellow
mouth of the lamprey EEL Their mouths
were pointed and surrounded by
hard, brown colored beak, which they
opened and shut precisely as a robin does. The
fish and their abode were held together by
means of the stout roots of sea weed which
had grown around them, and the whole weighed

scientific name, one of the men connected Win
the market named the shellfish sea canarles'
