BELL RINGING FISH.
Queer Tricks That Are Done by Two
Smart Brook Trout.

Queer Tricks That Are Done by Two
Smart Brook Trout.
Fish have many times been taught to
perform tricks, and Ii would appear
as if they had much more intelligence
than is attributed to them. Mr.. J. A.
Bailey, of circus fame, once had two
brook trout in small aquarium in his
private residence that would jump out
of the water and take flies held be-
tween the forefnger and thumb, and
would also ring little bell when they
required food. They would also leap
over little bars of wood placed about
two inches above the surface of the
water.
1t was, says the New York Herald, a
very simple matter to teach the fish
these tricks. At first a little tower con-
tanning a tiny, sweet-toned silver bell
was fastened to the iron work of the
aquarium with a piece of string at
tached to the tongue of the bell ex-
tending into the water where the trout
were. On the loose end of the string
an insect or other tempting morsel was
placed which the fish would at once
seize, and pulling the cord the bell In
the tower would naturally tinkle,
After this had been repeated several
days the fish were left without food for
some little time until they made the
discovery that they could obtain it by
pulling at the string to winch the deli
cacies had been attached. This they
never failed to do ever afterward when
they were hungry, and as that was near
ly all the time the little bell was con-
stantly tinkling as the fish were contin-
ually pulling the cord, and it was quite
a pretty and novel sight

It Is a Game Well Suited to Paying on
old Grudges.
1t is admitted on all sides that, played
under the most favorable circumstances,
and by men who would consider loss
Of temper almost equivalent to loss Of
honor, football under Rugby union rules
is reasonably dangerous game. Played
as it is in America, says the Saturday
Review, it seems admirably adapted for
paying off old grudgss, and proving
conclusively that good-humored pluck
and skill are no match for savage bru-
tally and irrelevant violence To an
aspirant for honors in the American
football team we would say. my son,
learn boxing Learn football also, If
possible, but first learn the art of self
defense
Moreover, the pernicious practices are
not exercised secretly Except with re-
gard to the umpire), but are tacitly rec
ognized as part and parcel of the
game. True, If man Is caught fight
ing he may be ruled out of the match.
1t Is made logical outcome of this law
that six or eight reserve men are al
ways reaUy equipped 10 tdAe Ine places
of any detected bruisers.
The thinking man can and does
easily improve the occasion. If he feels
exhausted as the short winter afternoon
is drawing in, he can watch until he
catches the umpire's eye, slug" a
diminutive opponent, and have his
place occupied by one seven times more
wicked than himself. Or, being but a
player of medium ability, he can yet
provoke to merry bout of fsticuffs
one whose ability in the game is great
er, and may thus bring about the re-
tirement of both, sacrificing his own
pawn self for the opponent knight The
American asserts that his game is more
scientific, which, from certain point
OF view, is self-evident.

THE LoNooNER At HOME.
soms PeculiayitIes OF a Proud But stOiid
People.

People.
London contains one-eighth of Great
Britain's population; has larger daily
delivery of letters than all Scotland; a
birth every four minutes; death every
six; and the lord mayor, "prince of par
venus" holds passing sway over a
greater number of his fellow mortals
than the king of Holland.
Though this miniature world num-
bers more Jews than Palestine, more
Italians than Rome, more Germans than
Hanover, it remains an Anglo-Saxon
city, says Godey's Magazine.
An outsider, knowing its history, his
perceptions not blunted by custom, is
unconsciously struck with persistence
of individuality, which changes Its
tastes, but never its essence. Let an
American walk In Fleet street, Cheap
side and City road, Watching these Eng
lishmen, calm, grave, silent, proud,
with fierce rush of passionate life be-
meath the CONCEALED and Icy surface of
reserved stolidity, and he will recog-
nize at once the traits of those asso-
ciate races, Vikings, Saxons, Normaas,
