"The Baron learned that tho Commissioner.
he had ppoint ed gave no help to immigrants
but pockOted most Of the money set aside for
this benevolent purpose The Baron de-
cided to look up tho truth of tho charges
by proceeding to New York himself.
The better to get at bottom facts he disguised
himself as q poor Hebrew and took STORAGE

New York WAS reached he went into tho dngy

4 SUBMARINE MONSTER.
The Gigantic Cuttief,sh Recently Found
In Irsloud.

The Gigantic cuetiensh Recently Found
In Irslsad.
Not long since tho people of Achill,
or Eagle island, lying OF the coast Of
Ireland, in county Mayo, were accorded
. privilege rare in the annals of the hui
man race--nothing less than the uncom-
mon sight of stranded ''devil1sh."
When drst washed ashore ut the en-
trance Of Blacksod bay tho villagers
took it to be the carcass of some gigantic
and unknown species Of whale. After q
couple or three weeks, however, when
it had been tossed further inland by o
terrific gale, the true character Of the
uncommon visitor was made known.
To what species of the Emmestrephes
tho monster belonged could not be
ascertained. the creature being too far
gone in decay. Tho sucker and the
horny rings had fallen of before it
reached the strand, the parrotlike beals
peculiar to this animal being also miss
ing. The animal, although visibly
shrunkcn and distorted. measured "a
follows: Length Of tcntacles, or long
arms, thirty feet each; circumference
of body, sixty feet: circumference OF
tentaclcs near body. four feet each.
Only four other instances Of the appear
ance Of this strange monster in British
waters have been recorded. says the St.
Louis Republic. 1t is often asked why
such things arc not preserved in mu-
seums, easily accessible to curious sight
seers. Do you know that it would take
q glass vessel as large as the hull OF the
Great Eastern to show OF such monster
to any degree Of perfection whatever?
Curious tales arc often told by mariners
about this most gigantic Of water mon
sters. Its enormous tentacles arc armed
with formidable suckers, nearly ss
large - the average wash tub. besides
hooks and spikes, each set with vicious.
looking teeth, all pointing inward.
Some naturalists believe that glimpses
Of the devil6sh's arms havc given rise
to the oft-repeated sea-serpent stories.

Gar Reed IN his most exasperatipg
mood, never during the entire term OF
his speakership ruled so tyrannous!y as
did Speaker Crisp in his tilt with Mr..
Burrows. Mr.. Mcmillan, the cham.
p.on of the Springer free wool bill,
moved that debate on the first section
of Mr.. Burrows amendment to the bill
be limited to one hour. THIS was in
violation OF an understanding had by
the ways and means committee-to
which oil assented-that section one of
the amendment, which strikes out the
word "wools." should be submitted
without debate. Mr.. Burrows promptly
and properly enough moved TO amend
by increasing the time for debate
TO two hours. No quorum voting
this failed, whereupon Mr.. Burrows
rs is customary sought . compromise
with Mr.. Mcmillan, who consented 10
increase the time to one and o quarter
hours. At this point tho speaker inter-
fered, ruled Mr.. Burrows out of order
and finally ordered him to sit down.
Mr.. Burrows reluctantly but gracefully
seated himself. but did not stay seated.
He and his colleagues, VINO had now
become greatly incensed, by justifiable
fiibustering prevented further con-
sideration Of the bill and finally forced
an adjournment. The real animus to
the speakers course may be found in
the fact, that section OF the amend
ment aims At and would strike out the
very essence of the Springer bill.
Had Speaker Crisp extended that
courtesy, which has been customary,
Mr.. Burrows amendment would have
been voted down and the democratic
house would have been put on record
rs favoring . wool bill. This the
speaker understood and sought 70 pre-
vent by a show of curtness unbecom-
ing the presiding officer of the house.
Speaker Crisp WITH his no-quorum-
voting, no-quorum present ruling, and
the display of unwarranted irascibility
lie fast earning . reputation for partisan
unfaIrnese.
