FEEDS ON JELLY FISH.
The "sucking Pig" or supfsh, Recently Taken by the Hattie.

Tho Sucking Pig" or sapRsh, Recently Taken by the Hattie.
 From the New London Day.i The peculiar mammoth fish caught by a party on the Hattie last Friday was, as recently stated, sunAsh, but bore little resemblance to the small creatures of that name found In fresh water.
 The scientific title of this marine ani- nal Is orthsgoriscus, which Is a Greek word meaning sucking pig" It feeds on jelly fish. It's mouth is small. and the jaws have no teeth. but are devel- oped into cutting ridges. This fact and the fat, chunky shape of the body may have had something to do with the ap- plication of the name.
 The fish is also called by some Mola Rotunda. and Is recordedas sometimes attaining a weight of 800 pounds. It was the opinion of those on board the Hattie that the specimen taken last Fri day weighed at least 900 pounds. The united efforts of eight men pulling on the tackle were required to hoist 1t on the steamer.
 Orthagoriscidae, or ocean sunfish, diff fer from all other members of the finny tribe in having no tail or any trace of one. Their bodies are broader than they are long and end abruptly in a rounded line something like that of the informal dress coat of fashionable society.
 The fish captured last week was float n C n r tho ho oL ty,e iv, hn and its side was covered with numerous round spots and crescents of light vel low. which faded as soon as it died. It then turned dull slate gray. The skin Is very tough, covered with six-sided scales, and almost impenetrable by the harpoon.
 A number of peculiarities of internal structure characterize the Orthagoris- cus and the oil extracted from Its liver is sovereign remedy for rheumatism Although 1t inhabits both the Atlantic and the Pacific, 1t is rare along these shores, being seldom found nearer than 800 or 800 miles from the coast. The Hattie's specimen ought to have been brought into port and shown in the fish market, which was open when the boat came in. There were plenty of people on hand who would have lifted the great fish off the boat in jlffy, and this queer creature would have been an interesting and instructive sight to our citizens.
 The fish would also have brought pc. cuniary profit to the captain or owners of the boat, as the liver oil is valuable commercially and the skeleton would be worth something to scientific men or to museum. To chop the fish up and throw it overheard was a useless and foolish waste.
 This is called an age of science; but there seem to be few people left who have no interest in natural science, and do not care enough about 1t to examine rare specimens from the sea or take a little trouble to bring them ashore, even where they could make money by doing m

DIFFERENT.

This country isn't China. and Presi- dent Cleveland knows it. When the Chinese emperor became dissatisfied with the antics of the great Ii Hung Chang the other day he said, or wrote, or had written, a few words and the great u Hung Chang had to take off his gorgeous yellow jacket, take down his splendid peacocks feather, and come down several degrees from the top degree to which he had risen. He is now busy working to please "the old man" in the hope that if he succeeds he may by and by get his yellow jacket and his resplendent feather back and rise as many degrees as he has fallen.
 How different this performance is from that on which the eyes of the peo- ple of this country are fastened. A few weeks ago the ruler of this free people took it into his head that Senator Cor mans yellow jacket and peacock's feather ought to come off and that he ought to be reduced several degrees from the exalted rank which he had attained. The old man knew he could not issue an edict to strip the senator of his ornaments and so he wrote let ter which he thought would do the busi- ness. He didn't see how the senator could hold up against one of his let ters, but the senator did, and he is now marching about as proudly as ever in full and conspicuous possession of his yellow jacket, his peacock's feather and with an addition to his degrees. And no yellow jacket or peacocks feather is observable on the old man.
 It is fine thing to be the ruler of a
 free people, but there are times in the existence of such ruler when he
 doubtless wishes that he were not quite
 so hedged i'll. We verify believe that
 President Cleveland would speedily
 spoil Senator Germans beauty and
 pride if he could do it as easily as the
 emperor of China can make Ii Hung
 Chang look and act as he wants to havA him

Ely-CatChing Mice,

tFrom the Boston Evening Transcript
 For something new in the way of fly trap look in the window of the drug store at the corner of Fremont and Eliot streets. There. at almost any hour of the day or night, from one to four rodent quadrupeds can be seen prancing over bottles of tooth powder and syrup of suuills and tincture of tur- pentine and sweet spirits of rhubarb and the other useful articles usually displayed in such places, in wild at- tempt to capture the tnusca domestica. The mice are simply out fiy-fshing. A card has been placed in the window In self defense, which reads: "Flay Trap. Not for Sale" This was done after the door step had been worn half way through by line of people coming in to inform the clerks that the window was full of mice. The mice have been in the window for three years. says one of the clerks who has seen that length of service for the druggist, and he doesn't know how much longer. In the winter they live by gnawing off the la bels in the store that are glued on with starchy paste. |~ The mice by this time have become quite tame, but they never leave the window except when the store Is closed. They have proved themselves to be real conveniences. When the store gets un- pleasantly full of flies, the clerks drive them into the window. and then the mice have luncheon. People gather at these times just as they do at the cir GUS when the animals are fed. The best fun comes wien the mice make after a
 horse fiy;;' tifere is a great race, and once caught the mice tears the fy's
 wings off and bolt everything else. In
 this way great pile of wings have ac-
 cumulated.
 The recreation of these mice consists in running up and down the curtain
 cord, at lightning pace causing the
 residents of the neighboring saloons to
 rub their eyes and finally to avoid that
 side of the street altogether

Sir George White. commander-in-ehief Of the British forces in India. has been Investigating the relations between in' temperance and crime and disease among the troops. and has obtained some highly suggestive results. IL ap- pears that In 1893 thsre were eight gen. eral courts-martiai in India for ths trial of British soldicrs-ali of them non- abstaincrs. or ilb0 soldiers tried al district courts.martisi only St were ab. stainers. Of l,ibo soldiers tried by reg mental courts-martial only 3s were ab- stainers. The number ot abstsiners in the army in India has rapidly advanced from ls.4s7 in 1890 10 22. .36s in 1894. Yet of the total Of 2.G0s courts s-martiai last year only 73 have been held for tho trial of members of tho Army Temperance association.

The figures. in Sir George Whites judg- ment, "leave a reasonable presumption that half the sickness in the British army in India Is traceable to drink" He confesses that he "was so astonish- ed" by the returns showing intemper- ance as the main cause of failure In the British soldier that he thought 1t his duty to order and carry out special investigation of the regimental statis- tics. The result has been to confirm their accuracy.

How the Beard Sho uld be Cut.
From the London Daily News.

From the LOndOn Dally NeWe.J
 Men with long, thin faces should have round boards, if any. But k a mans face fs abnormally round and fat he should wear the Imperial" as the mar, row. long variety of the Van Dyke beard Is called. Oddly enough, it is the Arsricans who chiefly favor this form, though. their faces being long and nar- row need it less than any other and would often be improved by round, full beard. trimmed rather short. Where is one good argument against the beard which ought to have some weight. It nearly always robs the head of hair. It Is very seldom that a man can maintain luxuriant growth of both after the age of forty. Perhaps this may be one reason that whenever long boards have been worn the hair has been cut short, and whenever the head locks have been permitted to be long the beard has almost entirely disap- peared. It Is a mistake for short men l to wear the beard too long. The head should be little less than one-seventh the length of the whole body, and the capillary addition to its size throws 1t quite out of proportion. On a very tall man. inclined to leanness and angularity, long beard is almost equally a mistake. unless he should happen to be 80 bountifully supplied by nature that he can have it of width 1proportionate to its length. and so thick as to convey an idea of almost supera- bundant fullness. He will probably pay for this, however, by being very bald on the top of his head.
