Live Fish of Great Age.

"The age of the fish is almost un- limited" observed an official of the fish commission, in reply to question. Prof. Baird devoted great deal of time to the question as to the length of life of fish, and he found that the ordi- nary carp, if not interfered with, would live 800 years. In his writings on the subject he stated that there are now liv- ing in the Royal aquarium in Russia several carp that are known to be over 300 years old; that he had ascertained in number of cases that whales live to be over POO years old. A gentleman in Baltimore has had an ordinary gold fish for 63 years, and his father in- formed him that he had purchased it over 40 years before it came into his possession. Washington Star.

 This is said to have happened in the wilds or Aroostooll shortly after the Bangor S Aroostook railroad had com meneed 10 exert it's ..modernizng in- Huence' and bring to the newly-estab- lished express offices certain com modities. the sale of which or possess sion with intent to sell is contrary to the wise laws of the goodly common wealth of Maine. A certain dep- uty sheriff was informed that there was deposited at cer- tain railroad station within his iur- isdiction package containing matter subject to coniiscation. The railroad station, which also included the express office, was some distance from the vil- lage, and the minion of the law con eluded to reconnoiter a little before taking the hard journey, perhaps for nothing. There was a telephone con heetion, and after communication was duly established the following conver- sation took place:
 Hello, there Be you the express agent"
 'sI be-
 ''Wel, hain'tthere a box there marked for Mike Pommerlow?"
 T believe there is. Be you Mke?"
 No, 1 hain't Mike, but I'm deputy sheriff, and 1 believe there's ticker in that ere. Say, will ye let me seize it if I come oyer?"
 ''ANill let ye seize it? Why"
 The agent ''tumbled" to use horrid slang expression. He saw that the dep uty was ignorant of the nature of the Maine law, and continued:
 Well, there's $1.75 due for charges, and if you'll pay that, seein' as how you've got the law on your side, l s'pose I'll have to stand by and see you seize."
 An l don't seize unless I pay the ex- press?'
 Don't nothin' go out of this office un- less the charges are paid. Them's the orders"
 Wall, wall, but 'sposen I seize the box and tain't rum after all, do get my $1.75 back ?"
 N-n-no. We don't let out rum boxes on approval, nor l hain't got all day to talk, either"
 Well, now look here, young feller, you must think I'm a fool to pay ex- press before I know whether it's rum or not. l don't seize nothin' but prepaid boxes, rum or no rum. Ye can't fool your Uncle Dudley outer no two dollars on onsartainties.
 There was sharp click on the other end of the line, and the express agent turned around with grin just as muddy blackboard drove up with the owner of the box in highly nervous state. The charges were paid, the con traband disappeared around the bend in the road toward Caribou, and the agent took down his fowling piece and started down the track to shoot a few cartridges from the telegraph wires Lewiston (Me.)
