AT THE AQUARIUM.
Lively Goings On in the Tanks When
the Trigger Fish Are Hunt
ing the Killies.

Pretty much all fishes like smaller
live fishes to eat, and so most fishes in
captivity take kindly to live killies for
food. There are fishes so swift in move
ment that they nip the killies the in
slant they strike the water; and then
there are some slower and clumsier
fishes which the killies may evade for a
time.
1t is a common thing for a killie that
has got away to seek and hug the wall
of the tank in the aquarium at the bat
terry, where they are safer, and some
times they seek the corners, where, in
the angle, they are more difficult OF
capture and safer still. Fishes are very
sensitive at the nose and they avoid
humping their noses when they can;
and then 1t is much easier for the fish
to take its prey in open water than it
is VIXEN il is up against something. But
not all fishes are like this; some Of
them plunge in anywhere for their
prey, regardless of their noses, and
against such the tactics Of the killie
fish afford it no protection.
OF the more needless is the trigger
fish, which comes from Bermuda,
though there is one in the lot now at
the aquarium that was taken off the
Jersey coast. Though the trigger fish
is not the quickest fish in the world,
it is handsome in coloring, with It's
gray body and blue fins, and 1t is per.
sistent in pursuing its prey. OF the
killies fed to the trigger fish in the
aquarium the other day at least half
a dozen at one time and another
sought some corner Of the tank, but
in every case trigger fish sought the
killie there and rooted 1t out, making
sometimes two or three plunges to get
it. The killie fish, in its efforts to
avoid capture, made as much commo-
ton in the water as fish of its size
was capable of, and the trigger fish,
fish of two or three pounds weight,
made more. One killie fish, hard
pressed, jumped out of the corner
clean over the head of the trigger fish
into the open water, but that gave it
only moments respite, for before 1t
had gone far away its pursuer turned
and captured It.
When the killies have all been fed to
them the trigger fish win come up to
the surface Of the water at the rear of
the tank, if finger is placed in the
water there, and they may even suffer
being touched. They are tame, very
tame; but their teeth are to be avoided.
neyertheless.-N. Y. Sun.

Women generally have great weak
ness for laces. They will be glad to
know that caterpillars have taken to
lace making. A German officer, ac-
cording to an English paper, has in
vented new kind of lace. He first
pounds together about SO or GO leaves
of a special tree on which live small
caterpillars peculiar to Bavaria. This
composition when reduced to pulp is
thinly spread on a slate, and on this
smooth surface design is drawn with
pencil dipped in olive oil, and then
the greedy caterpillars are placed on
either side of the slate to at once begin
their work of destruction by eating
away as quickly as possible the layer
of paste, without touching, however,
the traceries of the oily pencil. The
result is what we should call stencil
design, but whether sufficiently firm
to be utilized as dress trimming is not
stated in the report The process is
at least most ingenious, and appears to
deserve more the name of stencilling
or applique work than of lace. We
must wait for further details.-N. Y.

GOING TO DO NOTHING.

Everybody wants to know what
the Cherokees are going to dc
about the Curtis law, and what
they are going to do about allot-
ment and the many other things
that congress has determined to
force upon them whether they will
or will not. Those who know
Cherokee character thoroughly
don't expect them to do anything
at all, but just wait and see what
congress win do anyhow. The
Cherokees are not likely to con-
sent to any of the material de-
mands made in the Curtis bill.
They expect doubtless to stand pat
upon the title TO their land and
not be bullied nor bluffed off OF It,.
The treaties were made in good
faith and are still in force so far as
the Cherokee Indian is concerned.
His courts have been abolished,
and he is philosophic enough to
accept the situation and make the
most of it, and let the government
of the United States pay the ex-
penses. The title to the lands of
the Cherokee Nation is common
title and will remain so until the
Cherokees consent for it to be 9TH
wise. The United States govern
ment is not dealing with children
nor with ignorant wards who don't
know or care for their rights, but
on the contrary the Cherokees are
represented in all their councils
by men of sagacity and learning,
and everything offered the tribe by
the government of the United
States must pass muster before
the scrutiny of men who know
every technlcality of right and
wrong and who will contend in the
courts of the country till dooms-
day before they will yield single
point. The ultimate settlement Of
land titles in the Cherokee Nation
is in the future, and just how far
no man can tell.

Those who are in a position to
know, declare that the Cherokee
council will vote down promptly
any and every proposition looking
to a treaty with the Dawes COM
mission, preferring the worst that
can come from the enforcement of
the Curtis law, to being a party to
the destruction of their nationality
