Animals In L.ibach,s Earthquakes

An observer of animal life has COL
hcted (our Vienna correspondent says)
number Of notes upon the behavior Of
animals during the earthquake at Lai-
bach. A railway guard observed that
some minutes before the first shock was
felt his owl, chained to a Toulouse,
cried as If for help, and he was with it
when the earthquake began. Some for
est guards observed hares running, as il
for their lives, up hill before the first
shock. cartridges few long distance.
A gentleman who spent the night Of
Easter Sunday in a carriage saw the
pigeons and hawks ON q tower flying
round it every time that shock was
near. Sparrows and redbreasts also flut-
tered about and seemed to overcome
their fear Of men The most excited of
all were the horses They trembled long
before a shock occurred, and some fell
On their knees end sides. The dogs
kowled the whole night. When shock
was near, their cries were go strange that
they struck the ear as something nUa

DO FISHES TALK
Hero h Testimony From . Nan VIZ
Thinks They Do

Here h Testimony From Aa0 WE
Thinks They Do
We have heard Of the language Of
monkeys, and Of the language OF hens,
and of the language Of crows, and even
Of ants, but it will be new idea to
most people, probably, that fishes havo
language Of their own. An English
fisherman, Mr.. Basil Field, has been
making some investigations that lead
him to suppose that fishes have some
way Of communicating notion Of their
experiences to other fishes.
Mr.. Field carried ON his experiments
in the fishponds Of Mr.. Andrew, at
Guilford, England. Those ponds are full
Of trout, which, at the time when Mr..
Field first visited them, were SO little
accustomed to being troubled that when
be threw a baited hook into the water
all the trout in sight-a great number
rushed eagerly upon it. He caught
one, and removing it from the hook,
threw it back into the pond.
Then he put in freshly baited hook.
and only two or three trout came after
it. One of these he caught and threw
hack into the water. Again he resumed
his fishing with newly baited hook.
and this time, although the pond was
swarming with fish, it was only after q
long time that he lnred another trout to
his bait. And after little further
time it was entirely impossible to catch
trout in this pond
However, by experimenting IN anoth-
er pond equally well stocked and not
throwing back any fish Mr.. Field found
that he could catch trout as long as he
chose. The fish did not seem to under
stand that the removal of one of their
number by this strange means meant
danger to them, but came continually
10 the bait.
II. Mr.. Field reasons, it is only when
the captured fish, released, goes back
and mingles with his fellows that the
danger Is learned, and then is learned
Instantly, 1t must follow that the re-
leased fish has some means Of making
the others understand the perils of ths
hook. This, whatever 1t is, may be
called language. "-Fortnightly BE.
