MlNNOWS IN PONDS,

Fs cts About the Little FISH, that /. Used for
bait.
Many persons have noticed the re-
marlab BILE changes which often occur in
the life of ponds and streams. In some
cases these are readily explained by the
influence of settlement, with its neces-
sites and caprices, and their demands
upon water-courses and reservoirs. But
again there is an element of mystery
about some of the transformations dur
ing generation. AS an illustrate we
may refer to recent conversation with
correspondent
Near this gentleman's home at Welles-
ley, Mass, there is small sink hole
about one hundred feet in diameter,
known as Schoolhouse pond During
Mr.. Denton's boyhood this was full OF
catfish or horn pouts and contained no
other fish.
About eight or ten years ago fishing
party, on their return from trip, had
pail of bait minnows left over. One of
them said: Boys, it's too bad to throw
these minnows away; let's put them in
Schoolhouse pond"
1AVO VIC POAA UACJ "CAV duu CO-Ody
the water is filled with them; they can
be caught in enormous mum bers and are
just the size for bait; but not single
horn pout nor any other fish, except the
minnow, is to be found there Water
plants are plentiful and frogs, too, but
the minnow fills the category of fishes
and supplies the neighborhood with
bait. These little fish resemble the
shad in shape. The same fish abounds
in Waban lake, near Wellesley, and
keeps the bass and pickerel SO we'll sup
piled that it is difficult to catch them
with live minnows
AS an illustration of their abundance,
Mr.. Denton remarked that on one occa-
sion, when he and his friends had ex-
hausted their supply of bait they took
up I'LL the captured fish lying in the bot
tom of the boat, turned them head
downward, shook them, and obtained
enough in this way to continue fishing
half the afternoon and Stream.

selves guilty Of unprovoked assault upon our
sailors before and after arrest. He (the presi.
dent) thinks the preponderance of the evidence
and the inherent probabilities lead to the con.
clusion that Riggin was killed by the police OF
soldiers.
Third-That he (the president) is therefore
compelled to bring the case back to the position
taken by this government by the note OF Mr.
Wharton of October q last, and to ask for 9
suitable apology and for some adequate repara
ton for the injury done to this government"
In the same note the attention of tho 'Chilian
government was called to the offensive char
acter Of q note addressed by Mr.. Malta, its
minister Of foreign affairs, to Mr.. Mont, its
minister at this country on the 18th ult. This
dispatch was not officially communicated tt
this government; but as Mr.. Mont was di
rected SO translate it and give 1t to the
press of this country, it seemed to me
that 1t could not pass without Official notice
1t was not only undiplomatic, but grossly in
sult1ng to our naval officers, and to the execu
tive department, as it directly imputed untrutl
and 1ns1ncer1ty to the reports OF naval Officers
and to the official communications made by tn,
executive department to congress. It win b<

are SO abundant and various as to leave no
doubt in the mind OF anyone who will examine
the paper submitted. It manifested itself in
threatening and insulting gestures toward our
men as they passed the Gillian man of war in
their boats and in the derisive and abusive cpl
thets with which they greeted every appearance
Of an American sailor on the evening of the riot.
Capt. Schley reports that boats from the Gillian
warships several times went out Of their course
to cross the bows of his boats, compelling them
to back water He complained of the
discourtesy, and it was corrected. That
this feeling was shared by men Of
higher rank is shown by an incident related by
Surgeon Stitt Of the Baltimore. After the bat
tie of Placilla he, with other medical officers Of
the war vessels In the harbor, was giving volun-
tary assistance to the wounded in the hospitals
The son of a Chilian army officer Of high rank
was under his care, and when the father discov-
cred It, he few into passion and said he would
rather have his son die than have Americans
touch him, and at once had him removed from
the ward. This feeling is not well concealed in
the dispatches Of the foreign once and had
quite open expression In tbs diSrespectful
treatment OF the American legation. The
Gillian boatmen in the bay refused, even for
large offers Of money, to return our sailors,
who crowded the Mole, to their
ship when they were endeavoring
of the assault. The market boats of the Balti-
more were threatened, and even quite recently
the gig Of Commander Evans Of the Yorktown
was stoned while waiting for him at the Mole.
The evidenceof our sailors clearly shows that the
attack was expected by the Gillian people, that
threats had been made against our men, and in
one case somewhat early in the afternoon, the
keeper Of one house, into which some of our men
had gone, closed his establishment in anticipa-
ton Of the attack, which he advised them
would be made upon them when darkness came
on. In q report Of Capt. Schley to the navy
department. he says: I'm the only interview
that I had with Judge Foster, who is investi'
eating the case relative to the disturbances, be
fore he was aware of the entire gravity of the
matter, he informed me that the assault npon
my men was the outcome Of hatred for our PEG
pie, among the lower T. classes, be-
cause they thought We had sympathized
with the Chilian government on &C
count Of the 1tata matter. Several Of our men
sought security from the mob by such complete
or partial changes in their dress as would con

JONAH AND TIE WHALE.


Nineyeh Was the Big Fish That swul-

Nineyah, capital OF AssyIia, and Under
the reign Of Schenacarib, the capital Of the
entire civilized world of that period, was
the city which WAS warned by Jonah and
other prophets of God, while it was still in
the zenith Of its glory and sovereign power
that it would b. eXpunged from the face of
the earth Those who heard :he prophets
scotied at them, believing such thing to be
impossible, But the pr, phecies we're full
filed and for centuries the great city was
entirely unknown among men-save in
ancient Hebrew writings. Fire and other
elements of destruction had szed il nearly
TO the ground while the accumulated de-
pOsits of ages heaped upon it sand and soil
until it was buried entirely from sight. Its
destruction occurred presumably 625 years
b G. Not until 40 years ago did human
eyes behold the vast ruins of the superb
palace of Ssrdanapalus. Then explorers
eXcavated the mounds beneath which the
greatest gjorIes of antiquity mad sumbered
so many centuries. Then the history of
these great people was learned Their
lives, their customs, their costumes, heir
loves, their battles, their games, tneir
dances, their gories, ali will be faithfully
portrayed in the sublime spectacle, The
Fall of Ninevah," which will be one of the
features of the Adam Forepaugh Shows
