HOW TO KEEP GOLD FISH.
A Few Necessary Rules for Preserv-
ing the Pretty Water Pits.

ing the Pretty water Pits.
From the Cleveland Leader.
II Is remarkable how seldom people are
able to keep goldfish for more than a
month or two at most, and all because
they neglect a few first principles. Gold
fish can be kept almost any length of
time, accidents apart, If kept scrupulously
clean The air In the water Is soon ex-
hausted, and they should have fresh water
every day. If possible, oftener in sum-
mer. though once will do If the globe is
fairly large.
One can usually tell when the fish are
needing water They stand up on their
tails with their mouths to the surface Of
the water, and move slowly in that posi-
ton, generally making bubblng sound.
When you put the fresh water into the
globe, let 1t dash in from a hight. so that
plenty OF air gets in, too and let your fish
have handful of shells or small stones.
They look pretty and the fish appreciate
being able to poke about among them for
bits of food, and II gives them something
to do and a little interest In life. People
frequently make the mistake of thinking
that the fish get enough food out OF the
water. This is not so. They need feeding
when in captivity. Packets Of fishes food,
chiefly consisting of dried ants eggs, can
be procured from any seed or naturalisls'
shop. AS they require only a very small
quantity once a day, their board Is not
expensive. They will live on vermiceli,
but this clouds the water. and consequent
ly Injuries the appearance of the globe.
1t Is said that goldfish should never be
handled. This rs no doubt true, n they
are kept for breeding purposes. Other
wise, 1t does them no harm--if due care Is
exercised-and you may pick them up one
by one in your hand and pop them into
the globe of fresh water.
Never buy fish unless the fms are erect
and fully spread. Directly the fish is out
of health the fins close more and more.
until 1t dies. when they are quite shut Up
against the body.

eighteen members. From this branch has
sprung six thriving posts throughout the
state, with membership of over 500, and
much of the success of the association has
been due to his efforts.

ESTERHAzY ENTERS A DENIAL
Frenchman Says He Made No Such
Avowals rs Are Credited
to Him.

LONDON. Sept. 26.-The Daily News this
morning publishes a report of an inter-
view with Comte Esterhazy. in the course
of which the comte admitted having had a
conversation with Mrs. Rachel Beer, wife
of the editor of the Observer, on the 18th
inst, but denied energetically that he had
made the avowals credited to him. Then he
produced a long letter which he addressed
to Mrs. Beer last week, giving a general
denial in advance to anything which might
be published without his signature, and
protesting that he had been deceived by
lying demonstrations of friendship on the
part of the managers of the Observer, ,when
far from foreseeing the scandalous maneu-
Yer of which I was the intended object"
Incidentally, Comte EsterhaZy declared
that the pretended witness to the revelation
was utterly ignorant of the French lam
guage.
THE above mentioned letter, dated Sep
tember q, is" the paper says. "appar-
emily all that Comte Esterhazy is able 20

ON THE LUMBER QUESTION.
Joint Commission of United States
and Canada Is Adjusting Inter-
national Trade Relations.

QUEBEC, Sept 25-The international joint
high commissioners are getting very close
together in the matter of adjusting the
question of trade relations between the
two countries and in doing this the great
Industrial interests of the United States
are not to suffer. The assurances of
member of the American commission are
given that the industrial system OF the
United States will not be disturbed, and
that there is not the slightest reason for
apprehension on the part of Americans that
any of the great industries are to be sac
rificed.
1t is practically settled now that the
lumber question will be settled in manner
satisfactory to both Americans and Can
adams. 1t is probable that the embargo
on the export of Ontario logs will be re-
moved and for this concession on the part
of the Canadian government certain grades
of pine lumber will be admitted at a re-
duced duty or free into the United States
markets. The grade TO be admitted 1ree
or at a reduced rate will probably be the
higher grade of pine lumber, of which there
is not a surplus in the United States
market.
Arthur s. Hardy. who has been repre-
senting the lumber interests for Canada
and who is also the representative of the
Liberal government, left Quebec to-day
with the practical understanding that the
lumber question was settled.
Other questions, it Is understood, VIII
probably be settled on the same generally
equitable basis.
1t is likely that the conference will ad-
journ again during the present month, to
meet for a final session in Washington
the latter part of November.
So far as the agricultural products are
concerned, it is not likely that any ma
terial change will be made in present
duties. Hay is the only produce that Can
the United States and 1t will probably not
make any very strenuous effort for that.

WILL ARREST MRS. GUILF0RD.
Authorities Have Evidence Against
the Midwife Connected With the
bridgeport Tragedy.

BRIDGEPORT, CONN, Sept. ga
search of Nancy Guilford's house to-day
settled beyond doubt that Emma Gill died
there. and it was also learned that her
death took place Sunday. the 11th inst.
Several discriminating articles belonging to
Mrs. Guilford were found in the search of
the premises. 1t is believed that the first
portions of the dismembered body were
thrown into Yellow Mill pond between 10
and IL o'clock Sunday night. Mrs. Gull
ford hired team from Bank Bros, on
Broad street, that night, and was gone two
hours, and the Monday night following she
had the same team again and was gone
until l o'clock the next morning. Mrs.
Casperine who lives on Cedar street about
400 feet from the bridge where the bundle
was thrown off into the pond, positively
identified the team one she saw being
driven on the bridge about 1890 on the
Sunday night in question, and she also
saw its return a few moments later.
Superintendent birmingham stated to-
night that he expected to hear of the ar
rest of Mrs. Guilford at any moment He
was positive that she would be in custody
before many hours.
