Apropos of the foregoing it may be COM
monty known that the native fish in the
Santa Cruz river bring forth their young
alive. A more remarkable freak in ma
ture cannot be found. The propagation
Of all true fish is supposed to be by
means of the females depositing their
eggs in the water, where they hatch and
come forth, but the young of the fish ir
the Santa Cruz are nearly an inch long
at the time of their birth. Each female
brings forth about IL to 10 young at q
time. The male adult fish reaches from
8 TO s inches in size, but the adult fe-
male is scarcely half as large. In color
they are grayish brown on the back,
with bright, silvery sides. AT the pres-
ent time the females are big with young
and strange appearing. We desire TO
call the attention of scientists and nat
uralists TO this interesting and curious
form of fish life.-Tucson Citizen.

Life In Austria.

Foreigners are wont to classify Aus
tria among the German countries. AS
matter of fact, her German speaking
population is but limited and annually
losing ground. The increase in popula-
ton among the German inhabitants OF

The increase with the Italians in Austria
is 8. 90 and with the Slavonic races 7.9S.
OF 100 marriageable women in the Ger
man districts Of Austria Al find hus-
bands. Among the Slayonic, races the
percentages is SO. One Of the reasons for
this showing Is that in the German dis
tricts of Austria the economic manage
ment of affairs is almost prohibitory to
marriage among the younger sons and
daughters of the peasants. The home
stead goes TO the oldest son, whose BROTH
ers and sisters become his servants.
Among the Slavs the family property is
equally divided among all children after
the death of the father, and each one Is
allowed TO begin housekeeping on MS
own hook.-Vienna Letter.

There is very pretty. German tradi-
sion, not generally known, which ac-
,ounts in the following manner for the
existence Of the moss rose: The legend
IS to the effect that once upon time an
angel, having mission of love to suffer
ng humanity, came down on earth. He
was much grieved at all the sin and mis-
cry he saw and at all the evil things he
aeard.. Being tired, he sought place
wherein to rest. but as it Jared with his
master, so it Jared with him-there was
no room for him, and no one would give
him shelter. AT last he lay down under
the shade Of rose and slept till the ris-
ing sun awoke him. go zee
Before wipging his fight heayenward
he addressed the rose and said that as 1t
had given him that shelter which man
denied it should receive an enduring
token of his power and love- And 10
leaf by leaf and twig by twig the soft
green moss grew around the stem, and
there it is to this day, cradle in which
the newborn rose may lie, a proof, as
the angel said, of Gods power and love.
