MASSACHUSETTS GOLDFISH.
An Emblem which Has Hung in the
State House for Over q Century.

An Emblem which Has Hung in the
State House for Over q Century.
The famous Goldfish which hung
from the base of the dome in the
Massachusetts state house, and inside
the old room in which the representa-
tives used to meet, has always
attracted the notice of visitors
and sometimes moved them to ridi-
Guile. The following account of it's
origin is given: 'In 1866 Charles
w. Palfrey, editor Of the Sa-
lem Register and member
of the house for several years, under
took to gather all the facts that
could be learned about the placing Of
the figure in the chamber. On We'd
nesday, March II, 1884, John Rowe, q
member from Boston, moved permis-
sion to hang the Goldfish in the house
as memorial to the Importance of
the codfishery to the welfare of tho
state. The motion prevailed, and
shortly after the emblem was placed
lin position, and there it has remained
undisturbed through all the vicissi-
tudes of the years which have inter
vened. Once it was painted, but it
has never been taken down from the
iron rod by which it is held in posi-
ton. Mr.. Rowe, who presented the
figure to the commonwealth, was O
well-known citizen of Boston, and
conspicuous patriot, being associated
with Samuel Adams, James Otis,
John Hancock and other leaders of
the period. He was interested in
commerce and was an extensive prop
erty owner along the water front,
Rowe's wharf and contiguous terri
tory being among his possessions. He
died on February II, 1887"

LARGE OYSTERS.
In Some Parts OF the World One Makes
Full Meal.

In Some Parts of the World One Makes
Full Meal
Pliny mentions that according to
the historians of Alexander's expedi-
tion oysters foot in diameter were
found In the Indian seas, and Sir
James Z. Tennent was unexpectedly
enabled to corroborate the CORE ctness
of his statement, for at Kottiar, near
Trincomalee, enormous specimens of
edible oysters were brought to the
resthouse.
One measured more than eleven
inches in length by half as many in
width. But this extraordinary meas
urement is beaten by the oysters of
Port Lincoln in South A us tralia, which
are the largest edible ones in the
world. They are as large as dinner
plate and of much the same shape.
They are sometimes m ore than a foot
across the she'll, and the oyster fits
his habitation so well that he does not
leave much margin.
1t is a new Sc nsation when friend
asks you to lunch at Adelaide to have
one oyster fried in butter or eggs and
bread crumbs set before you, but it
is very pleasant experience, for the
flavor and delicacy of the Port Lin
coin mammoths are proverbial even
in that land of luxuries.

odd Preferences in Flows.

Frank M. Whitney, manager of an
Eastern pillow works, makes curious
assertion. He says: ''Plows are made
differently for certain counties and
states. The tendency of son is to
use the same kind of pluw used by
his father. In Lawrence county the use
of the left-handed pillow is almost the
rule, but in Mercer county the right
hand pillow is used, and this .naccount-
able difference in the kind of plow
used extends to other states in the
union. In central and Eastern Fennsyl-
vania the left-handed plow is used,
and wherever the Amish German
farmers have emigrated from this
county the sons are almost sure to
use the left-handed plows. We would
never dream of sending a lsft-handed
plowinto Michigan, neither would we
