A Notifying Mistake Made by . Striped
Grunt In q Tank Rt the Aquarium.
In one OF the tanks at the Aquarium there
are a number OF moonlshes. from local waters.
and a number Of striped grunts from Bermuda.
The largest OF the moonishes has met with
soms mishap that has resulted In starting its
eyes from their natural position; not an I'M
usual thing to happen to a fish.
When this moontish was received at the
Aquarium both its eyes were more or less pro-
truding from their sockets: one OF them has
now receded to about its normal position; the
other still projects. and it seems likely TO re-
main as II is. The projection IL not great, the
eye Is only a quarter OF an inch or a little more
beyond It's normal line. but that In the case OF a
fish OF the peculiar thin build OF the moonhsh
is enough to make it conspicuous. This does

BRYAN TO QUIT SOLDERING.
Will Resign His Commission as Coll
OneI of the Third Nebraska,

Savannah, Ca, Dec. l2.-Colonel w. j.
Bryan, colonel of the Third Nebraska regi-
ment, has either forwarded his resignation
to Washington or is about to do so. OF
this there seems to be no doubt. Today he
called on General Lee, commander of the
Seventh corps, of which Colonel Bryan's
regiment is part, and is understood to
have announced his intention of quitting
the service. General Lee is to sail for
Cuba on the transport Panama tomorrow,
and Colonel Bryan is believed to have
fastened his decision in order that he may
acquaint his corps commander with his
intention prior to Lees departure for the
island. Neither of the commanding gen.
erals would discuss the matter and re-
1erred to Colonel Bryan as the proper
source to get any news.
Colonel Bryan would neither deny nor
confirm the rumor, but stated that when
the time came he would prepare writ
ten statement and give it to the press,
so that there would be no possibility of
any mlsstatement as to his intention.

OBJECT TO MoNsoN's SPEECH.
The Papers of Paris Are Filled With
Cheap Buster

New York, Dec. "a dispatch from
Paris says: e.
Referring to Sir Edmund ]. Monson's
speech before the British chamber of CON-
merce, the Liberte says:
IN. Delcasse will certainly not fail to
charge NJ. Paul Cambon, who leaves to-
day to take possession of his post in Lon
don, to ask the Marquis of Salisbury if it
is by his orders that the British ambassa-
dor in Paris thinks himself authorized
not only to represent the British foreign
office, but also to direct our foreign
policy"
The Patrie says: at is impossible to
conceive a more comminatory warning in
a more offensive form. Sir Edmund Mon
son, the British ambassador, dares in
Paris itself to threaten us with the wrath
of his countrymen. This language recalls
that used by Mr.. McKinley's mouthpieces
last year toward Spain. Doubtless Sir
Edmund has been allured by the pro-
eedure of the new American diplomacy"

of Rigley's ownership by reason of having

change of words Rigley drew a revolver
and opened fire on Rice, one bullet taking
effect in his hip. After struggle Rice
secured possession of the weapon and
with it he beat Rigley over the head
