THE MANIFEST.

head to fine point at the tail. The cap
tors state that it wriggled very snakishly
through the water. The thing hos fins
just like any we'll constructed fish. This
head of the monster is enough to scare n
doirium tremens patients into au insane
asylum. 1t Is very large head, shaped
like sealion's, with huge staring round
eyes, two small cars that lie close to tho
head and very large mouth armed with
two rows of formidable looking fangs
and forked tongue. Tho tongue, tho
captors aver, darted serpentwisc in and
out of the mouth when the thing was
alive. The head hos patches of black
silky hair scattered over it.
A son of William Reuter- and friend
were the captors. They were fishing Off
the north side of Goat Island when they
noticed the monster wriggling in tho
wnter The boats painter was speedily
converted into II lariat, and when the
tish-snakc poked its hideous head above
the water it was made prisoner. The
young men had hard fight with
the monster, but they finally landed it in
the boat and conveyed it to Oakland,
where it has been on exhibition. The
monster weighs 1Sl pounds.
A telegram from Oakland states that
Berkeley professor who has been study
ing over the matter has found out what
the something is and triumphantly pro-
nounces Its name.
The professors designation of tho
snake-fish is anarrhiehilthys ocollatus-
at least that is the telegraph operators
version of it. At all events it is very
queer fish, and it is found only in the
Pacific Ocean and the arms thereof

Artificial Coffee.

Some packages of coffee are made oil
peas, rye, roasted and ground, almond
shells treated with molasses, beans, acorns
and chicory. There are twenty different
substances known to the trade as "colTee
substitutes" Among these arc the arti-
fetal beans, made out OF potato starch and
other materials, which are imported from
Germany in large quantities, for mixing
with theqeal article. They can be dc.

water, whereas true coffee beans will
float. Shrivcled coffee beans are com.

look plump. 1t is usual to extract the
essential oils from coffee beans before
selling the latter es coffee, the essences
being manufactured separately into ex-
