Education in Scotland.

Education in Scotland was never cir
cumscribed by conditions of wealth.
The philosophers and educators of Scot
land have always addressed themselves
to the people as well as to the learned
classes. This condition of education is
not prevalent in SO large u d gree
among the nations of continental
Europe. The intellect of Germany, ad-
nit. dly in philo oslphical subjects. the
most powerful intellect in the world,
has turned Che language of the people
to It's usla and has succeeded in max
ing 1t SO difficult, so subtle and SO full
of diversions, as to be uninteil!Si-
BILE to the average nderstandng.
The composite mind of the Scotch
philosopher does not go so far 1t meets
with AN opposing force and halts in the
field of common sense. There is be-
hind every intellectual movement In
Scotland a practicable motive In it's
broad sense, the question suggests At
self to the thinkers, will the par
ticular movement lessen the burdens of
mankind?
She founded the only system of philo-
sophy which has found expression In
the English language, namely the
Scotch school of philosophy, in the de-
velopm mt of which some of the great
est minds In the history of education

The speaker also dwelt on the bray
cry of the Scotch, their eloquence and
business tact, and closed with an e!o-
quent tribute to the memory of the late
DR.. McCosh, of Princeton, who was,
Mr. Harris said, the embodiment of all
the elements of genuine Scotch man

A sOCIABLE FISH.
He Lives Under Portland Pier and Knows
the Barge Office Boatmen.

A curious instance of the familiarity of
fishes with human beings is being OBJ
served at the present time at the United
States Barge office on the end of Portland
Pier The official boat of the barge office
is kept in boat house on the end of the
wharf, and when used is lowered by
tackle and fall to the water beneath.
Floating on the surface of the water is
raft, for the convenience of the boatmen
in embarking and disembarking. The
public do not have access to this boat
house, and the raft underneath the wharf
is quite secluded.
About three weeks ago one of the boat
men began to notice little fish about
eight inchs long, that seemed to wish to
scrape acquaintance. The fish would
come up to the top of the water whenever
the boatmen would appear, and did not
se3m to be at all afraid. After a time
one of the officers at the barge office be-
gan to take friends down to see the fish.
At first he might not be in sight, but
very soon would appear, having evidently
seen his friends approach
The end of the wharf is quite a place
for fishermen, and one or two tempting
hooks are usually dangling near by, but
SO far the sociable little fellow has es-
capped.
3 He frequently will come within an inch
of the hand of one of the boatmen, and
seems to have no fear at all.
Within three weeks he has grown very
fast, and now is nearly foot long. ssHe
resembles carp, but is of kind not
familiar to the boatmen.
At first the fish was accompanied by a
companion, but the latter has disap-
peared.

A Queer Request.

Railroad men have many queer requests
made of them, but one OF the queerest
was that of woman who lived near the
line of the stage coach that runs from a
Maine Central railroad station to Blue
Hill, who wrote to General Passenger
Agent Boothby, asking him to see that
the stage called for her. The colonel al
ways obliges the ladies If he can and al
though he had nothing to do with the
stage line, he managed to arrange the
affair satisfactorily.

THE RIFLE SHOOTING CASE.
Capt. Green Says 1t Was Reckless Shooting
and Mr.. stickney Says it Wasn't.

The Times, yesterday, said that the
passengers on the steamer Emita were
imperiled the other afternoon, by recK-
less rifle shooting, on the part OF some
one on board of Mr.. Henry Stickney

Green declared several shots came danger
ously close.
A representative of the PRESS called
at Mr.. Stickney's and asked him II ne

gross exaggeration. The steamer was ell
tiroly out of the range of the shooting.
Mr.. Stickney said that he was the one
who fred the shots A bottle had been

Emita's course, and he used a small

Saws There Is No Truth In 1t.

? 1t was reported Saturday that the de-
cision of Judge Erskine M. Ross of the
Circuit Court of California, that the
Wright Irrigation law is in con1iction
with the constitution of the United
States and therefore unconstitutional,
rendered worthless about $50, 900 of water
bonds issued by that authority in Cape
Elizabeth, also $3.50, 600 sold in Portland.
Mr.. T. G. Woodbury. of Woodbury. &
Moulton says there is no truth in the

A NAUGHTY FLY.
shuts Off the Wind of Church Singer
Yesterday.

Yesterday morning while mass was
being celebrated at the Cathedral OF the
Immaculate Conception, young lady
from Boston, fine vocalist, was assum-
ing the leading soprano part. When tie
solo Salve Regina was reached the lady
sang the solo, and had just reached the
concluding measure, her pure, crystal
like notes falling most agreeably on the
ear, when the members OF the chol1
noticed that she turned pale and placed
her handkerchief to her lips, giving a
spasmodic cough. A fly had flown down
her windpipe and shut off her wind.
Fortunately at that moment the full
chorus had to sing, thus preventing any
break, and when her turn came again
the lady was able to respond. The poor
fly was afterwards found on the bosom OF
her dress. He had paid for his temerity
with his life.
