Y. M. c. A. RECEPTION.
An Enjoyable Occasion at the Institute
 Last Night.

The farewell reception rendered former secretary s. A. Kincaide at the Merrill Institute Monday night was a most enjoyable occasion. A large audience was out to hear the program and 10 say good bye to Mr. Kincaide and wish him God speed in his new work at Houston, Texas.

 President Fred Fox, of the Board of Trustees of the Merrill Institute, was master of ceremonies, and made a statement to the effect that owing to finances and the lack of public patronage and interest in the lee ture course last year, that there would be no lectures this season, but next year the work would be taken up as usual.
 Secretary Dixon then made an announcement, after which the pro gram began.

KICKER AND LEE
 CALLED TO WASHINGTON
The War Department summons Them From Havana, and the Recall Is Be-
 lieved to He Significant.

Havana, Nov 1-Colonel Hecker and oolonel Lee of the United States special transportation commission received ca oiegrams from Washington Saturday nlsht directing their return to Washing lon by the first steamer available. The messages, which were from Secretary Alger, were very brief, simply directing tne recipients to report to the war de- Vartment, and there is considerable per piexity as to the object of the recall.
 The supposition is that the death of colonel George E. Waring, Jr., in New ork City has necessitated some change n the plans of the war department.

procured it. namely. that the catch was
made in comparatively shallow water
just outside of the harbor, it is to be
depended on, the occurrence Is indeed
unusual.
1t is about three inches in length. and
when alive was of bright yellow hue,
with spots of black here and there. Its
mouth is quite large, and the part OF
the body nearest is correspondingly
large. Il then tapers off to a small tail.
But the peculiar part is that there are
no gills or what are popularity known
as such. Where these should be the
skin is just rs it is all over the body.
At distance of about half an inch and
protruding from the belly near the cen
trail part are what might be called arms
or legs. They are jointed and have
some ten very fine claws. These, to-

walk about with on the bottom OF the
