Carniyorous Ocean Fishes.

Such fierce carnivorous fishes as ex'
list in the depths of the ocean are un'
known at the surface. There is the
"black swallower," which devours
other finny creatures ten times as big
as itself, literally climbing over its
victim, first with one jaw and then
with the other. Another species is
nearly all mouth, and, having no
power of locomotion, it lies buried in
the soft ooze at the bottom, its head
along protruding, ready to engulf any
prey that may wander into its cavern,
Gus jaws. There is ferocious kind OF
shark, resembling huge eel. All OF
these monsters are as black as ink
Some of them are perfectly blind,whle
others have enormous goggling eyes
No ray of sunlight ever pierces the
dark, unfathomed caves in which they
dwell. Each species is gobbled by the
species next bigger, for there is no
vegetable life to feed on.

MElLOWED WHISKY.
A Bottle of the StimuIant Lies In Tree
Trunk Thirty-Six Years.

Trunk Thirty-Slx Years.
Thirty-six years ago a man named
Jones, who was employed by Frank
Lockwood of this town, says SIAM
ford Comm correspondent of the New
York Sun, was at work on Mr.. Lock-
woods farm, and as stimulant he
took out to the lot with him pint
flask of prime whisky. During the
morning Jones took one nip, and, see
ing his employer coming, he slipped
the bottle in hole in a tree standing
near, intending to return and get it
after Mr.. Lockwood had gone home.
When the opportunity came he was
disguised to find that the tree trunk
was hollow and the bottle had fallen
to the bottom and probably broken.
Jones related the incident to Mr.. Lock-
wood sometime afterward, who
laughed at the loss and thought no
more about it. Last week during a
severe windstorm the old tree, now a
rotten stump, was blown down. Mon
day Mr.. Lockwood went out to haul
away the trunk and was surprised to
find his former employees whisky flask
safe and unbroken. He took out the
cork, took one smell. "And, SIR" said
he, though I've been a teetotaler for
nigh onto fifty years, / never was so
tempted to take taste of whisky in
my life as was then. But | didn't,
and the stuff is safe up at my house"
1t is said the whisky, when poured out,
had the consistency and color of olive
oil 1t will not be used SO long as Mr..
Lockwood holds it.

had his sanction, and, upon returning
to Jefferson City, about the fifteenth Of
September, he would give the matter
serious consideration.
He was Of the opinion the time had
come when the west and south should
cut loose from the east and build up q
financial and commercial center at
some point in the interior-Chicago or
st. Louis.
As for a gulf port, New Orleans or
Galveston would suit both sections, in
his opinion. On general principles he
was opposed to sectionslism, but if the
east proposed to ignore the great agri-
cultural and silver states, it was time to
cut away from that highly protected
section. If convinced that a fair re.
presentation could be had, he would
call the convention for ST. Louis about
October l, and thought it would bear
good fruit. The governor declared
himself in favor OF ignoring England on
all financial questions.

GOLD SCATTERED IN THE ROAD
A Car Containing Coin Wrecked on
the Fort Wayne.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Aug. 23.-[Asso-
ciated Press. IA special to the News
from Whiting, Ind, says the Fort
Wayne mail and express train No. 7,
carrying $3.50, 900 in gold coin consigned
to Chicago, WAS wrecked there at
Fourth street last night. The engine
was thrown from the track at the cross
ing of the Chestnut Terminal belt line.
The third car, which contained the
coin, was burst open and the treasure
partly thrown out and scattered in the
middle of the highway. The wre TX
caught fire from the engine, and but for
the prompt action of the fire depart
ment the train with its precious load
would have been consumed.
A force of men was procured to guard
the money, and at dawn this morning
it was taken to Chicago by another
train. No one was injured save two
laborers who were working at the ruins
and were struck by a heavy timber.
They will recover.

aggregating 100000 and may inciden-
tally have led to his securing the senator

versally ascribed to Days influence,
though that gentleman is very promi-
nent in Democratic councils.
Mr.. Mantle has been a prominent Re-
publican politician for some years and
has been elected to several offices on the
nomination Of that party. He served
one term as alderman in Butte and a
term in the Montana territorial legisla-
ture, during which he was speaker OF
the lower house. He was elected mayor
of Butte by the Republicans in the spring
of 1892. and his success in securing that
Office is also ascribed to MI. DAILY, Butte
being claimed as a Democratic city.
In 1884 Mr.. Mantle was a delegate To
the Republican national convention, and
in the same year he was a prominent
candidate for appointment to the gov
ernorship of the territory. which office
was bestowed by President Arthur on B
Plat Carpenter. Mr.. Mantle is unmar
ried and of prepossessing personal ap.
pearance.
Mr.. Mantle was appointed to the sena.
torship by Governor Richards because OF
the failure of the legislature of Montana
to elect q successor to Senator Sanders.
whose term expired on March 8.

ERlCSSoN'S LAST VESSEL.

The Destroyer, which the Aged T~nventoz
Designed. but Never Saw.
No certain limits can be fixed to the
progress which science will make in ma
val warfare, as from year to year there
seems to be q pretty even race between
the builders of stronger ships and the in.
ventors of more destructive and far
reaching ~projectiles. To vary the famous
old paradox, no sooner does one invent
IN invincible steel, iron or tinclad than
another invents an irresistible shot OF
torpedo.
Captain Ericsson had but just revolu-
tionized naval warfare with his monitors
when he began the construction of q YES
sci to insure their destruction. He died
before completing his plans, but the
United States naval department was 30
satisfied with his plans that it intrusted
Their completion to Engineer v. r. Las
soc and others familiar with them. The
vessel built under their instruction Is
now completed and is aptly named The
Destroyer.

Rapid City Journal, %: The board OF
trustees OF the Black Hills Chautauqua
Assembly has concluded to postpone
the meeting for n year. Owing to the
large number Of Black Hills people who
contemplate visiting the worlds fair it
was thought to be a hazardous under
taking to try to have a successful assem-
bly, this year. The decision is a wise
one, for a division of energies often
causes failure, and the assembly next
year may be made a greater success be-
cause of a cessation OF energies for one
year.

A Woman Traveller Who Can Take Care

zone of the brightest among them
that ! have met was a pleasant little
body who was taking orders for books,
though, as she frequently explained, she
was no book agent, because she only
sold to the trade and in quantities.
That might be, but she always had a
spare copy to accommodate anyone
who might be struck with its beauties.
al met er in small Illinois town,
where the local Judiciary wrestled
hard to collect license from every
one who came within hundred miles
of being an agent or peddler, and my
fair comrade got herself arrested for
selling single copy OF her book for six
dollars cash to a man who was mean
enough to give her away. felt sorry
for her, and made up my mind that
after supper would either square the
court or bail her out.
But my services as advocate or d.
verter of justice from the proper chan
nels were not needed, for at supper
time she appeared more radiant than
ever asked her how she got along
with the police judge or justice of the
peace.
"'Oh,' she replied, he is just the
incest old man I ever saw in my life.
He bought the only copy l had left,
and asked the constable who arrested
me if he thought he had good sense to
drag lady before him like that for
nothing

ment the lady used, for the old judge
had a reputation for cussedness which
1t was hard to equal. But one thing IS
certain, and that is the average woman

without much outside assistance"
