THE SOUTRE's PET FISH,
Just n lie Had Taught II tn Live on Land
IT Fell into the Water and was Drowned:

MARIETTA. July 2o.-There was a
man in this city yesterday who told about
the biggest fish story ever heard in this
vicinity. His name is Henry Wilson, and
he halls from up near the head OF Mid
die Island Greek. in West Virginia. VIII
sons story is thus:
Near his home. I'm West Virginia. is an
old squire Of the name of Spencer. who
believes that any living thing can be
taught TO live out Of its element. Several
months ago DO caught a large catfish with
out doing IL any injury. aud proceeded IN
an experiment 10 prove his theory. lie
dug a hole in his yard. which he filled
with water. and in which he deposited
the fish. Every day he took out a portion
~ the water until there was very httie
left. This he let cVapOrate and, wonderful
20 say. the fish still lived. accustoming IL
self 10 the air and apparently thriving.
Finally Squire Spencer took the ish
ont Of the hole and kept him In the yard,
where he fed him AMI treated him IN much
the same way that DE would treat any
BARNARD animal. The fish at once took
ou docile habits and became very anec-
tiOute. Whenever IL saw its master II
gave forth a sound of recognition and
Wabblcd itself as near ms possible 10 MN:
Spencer pettcd him and became so fond
OF him that he wouli often take him
along with him when he went away from
home.
one thing peculiar about the fish was
that II would never have anything 10 10
with tine other members Of Spencers ram
lis. but would show great fear az their
approach. Spencer was very lubnant az
this apparent vindicatlOn of his theory,
and. WIS prenaring TO exhibit the phc-
nomenon al the county fairs In his section.
But the most remarkable part or the
story vet rem ans 10 be told. one day, as
Spencer was starting of for a snort WIZ,
the nsh started TO wabble along atteI
him. All went well until spencer crossed
n shallow creek on "a foot log. ana the
fish. in attempting to follow, got as i@I
as the middle of the log. lost his balance,
and fen into the water. spencer oout,
