EFFECT OF WEATHER ON FISH.
Why Trout Rise Merrily in the Midst
of a Storm and Sulk When the
Water Is Quiet.

If trout rise merrily in the very
midst of storm, why do they invaria-
bly, sulk when the thunder is only sin
the air?' The explanation is simple,
but it occurred to me only the other
day, says the London Review. Trout
sulk when he storm is gathering from
the cause which makes men at the club
decline to look at the billiard cues dur
ing the same weather. The atmosphere
lacks oxygen, and therefore all SEN
tient life is languid. When the light
ming has come the sultriness is dis
PEELED; fish and men have something
more cheering than carbonic acid gas
10 breathe; both are in a humor for
food or play.
Tie same reasoning, think, ex-
plains why. as rule, it is necessary
10 have ripple if you are to catch
trout. The accepted explanation is
that the ripple conceals the casting
line, leaving visible to the fish the flies
alone, but one has only to use ones
eyes to discover that that is no ex-
planation at all. Even in a gale, if

ly visible TO the human eye as it would

man eye can see in the water the trout
is surely not quite blind. No; trout
rise in ripple more rapidly than in a
calm simply because the wind is oxy-
genating tie water. Whose doubts

Lei him put half a dozen live trout into
Il pail OF water. Within an hour they
will be s:cnening; some of them will be
near death and turning on their backs.
A few quarts of water plunged yard
Or two through the air into the pail

magic. The fish want oxygen just as

SNOBBISHNESS.
One Meets 1t Everywhere-NOt Con-
fined to Any One Set
of People.

A lady living in an questionable
street invited a gentleman of leisurely
life to her home, because in her SIM
plicity she thought he seemed lonely,
saws an exchange He came and at the
close of the evening remarked to her:
81 had no idea should meet so many
distinguished people at your house " his
voice unconsciously emphasizing the
pronoun. In little book, about Peo-
PIE" Mrs. Kate Gannett Wells gives the
following instance of lack of good
manners:
sSnobbishness is not confined to one
set of people. Emphasized by fashion
or literary pretensions. it spreads from
village to city. 1t exists in sardine fac
tories and in palatial mansions; it is
met with at picnics and dances, as well
as at dinners or conversation parties.
The links are close.
"One of Boston's oldest families gave
a reception. Two scions of other old
families attended. to whom the host
said: I'll introduce you to these ladies

"'Excuse u.s. said one of the men,
tthe ladies are of peasant style OF
beauty; it is hardly worth while
"The host bowed low in recognition

they are my nieces from the country,
but will not trouble you.'

room were startled by the shot and
Elliott came running through and out
Of the front door of the saloon with
his head bleeding. Davis went the
other way and came around to near
the corner of Honywill's store where
he had his saddle horse tied. Here he

INDIANS MUST OBEY.
They have No More Right to Kill came
Than " hIte Men.

There are few if any counties in
Oregon aud Washington that are not
directly interested in n recent decision
in the United States supreme court
regarding the rights of Indians on
government land within the border
of state. The decision was rendered
in the case of John Ward, sheriff of
Vinta county, Wyo., VS. Race Horse,
an Indian. After Wyoming had been
admitted as state, the legislature
passed Jaw for the protection of
game, and fixing penalties for the
violation of the same. Race Horse, a
Bannock Indian, was convicted for
having killed elk, and was imprisoned
by the state authorities A writ of
habeas corpus was sued out in the
United States circuit court, and Race
Horse was discharged. the court hold.
Ing that the state statute was in
violation OF a treaty entered into be-
tween the United States and the Ban
mock Indians in 1869, which provided
that the Indians shall have the
right to hunt upon the unoccupied
land OF the United States so long as
game shall be found thereon" This
holding virtually was that the state
had no jurisdiction over government
lands within its territory. The sup
RENE court held that states had right
to pass game laws that would be oper.
alive against Indians as we'll as whites
even on unoccupied government lands
and that any former treaty between
the Indians and the government
could not deprive the state of this
right. In delivering the opinion of
the court, Mr.. Justice White said:
The power cf all tie states to regu
late the killing of game within their
border will not be galusaid, bua, if the
treaty applies to the occupied land
OF the United States IN the state of
wyoming, that state would be bereft
OF such power, since every isolated
piece Of land belonging 10 the United
o6ates as private owner, so long as
1t continues to be occupied land,
would be exempt in !his regard from
the authority of the state. Wyoming,
then, will have been admitted into the

one shorn of legislative power vest

FUNERALS IN ARABIA.
Characteristic-Wai Ex-
L tends to the Dogs. ?.

"One of the strangest and most at
fecting sights in an Arab town." says
Tunis correspondent of London
Sketch, sis that of the funerals, which
may be met at any street corner. The
corpse is merely wrapped in a mat of
esparto grass and carried either on a
bier or on mems shoulders. The mourn
ers lounge along, some in front and
some behind, grooming verses of the
Koran in melancholy tones, which haunt
one for days afterward.
This wailing is, however, nothing to
that which goes on in the house of the
deceased. When I was staying in the
country near Tunis I heard it kept up
during whole night in neighboring
village, and / can conceive nothing
more desperately depressing than these
strains of lamentation waited through
the darkness by the breeze My dog
stood 1t even less well than l did and
felt constrained to join in the doleful
chorus until l was half-tempted to put
a bullet through his head. Perhaps the
strangest of all the funerals 1 saw was
at Bizerta. 1t was that of baby, which
was being carried to its grave in an es-
parto basket"

A LOYAL AMERICAN GIRL.
Gladly Gave the Flowers from Her
Hat to Remind the Boys Of
Home and Mother.

When the soldier boys left for the
south there was one bright-looking girl
standing on the depot platform, says
the Denver Times. She wore one of the
fashionable hats which appear like a
garden of flowers. AS she stood there,
with the tears coursing down her cheeks,
she saw the other girls burying the
brave boys in literal forests of flowers.
One of the soldiers stepping up to her
asked:
"Please, may have one of those flow
ers on your hat?"
She took his hand, and in voice most
womanly said: "Yes, sir, and may God
bless you"
Then she told them all to come and Sc
lect flower from her hat. The boys,
with hands grim and bronzed from camp
life, carefully culled them from the
straw frame until they were all gone.
Then she put on what was left oft, and,
stepping back toward the car, said with
emotion:
Boys, 1 wish there were more.
hope you will come back again, and that
those flowers will remind you of the
pleasant scenes of home, and guide you
as your dear old mother would have
taught you to CO."
There were several girls standing close
by who whispered: 81 wouldn't ruin
my hat that way" but the wiser heads
remarked: There is loyal American
woman = God bless her" = Denver

JUMBLING THE SERVICE.
Blunders In the Marriage Vows Made
! by Both Bride and
K Groom.

A Hampshire clergyman recently re-
lated some of the blunders he r.
heard made in the marriage service
persons of the class who have to pick
up the words as best they can from
hearing them repeated by others, says
the Weekly Telegraph. He said that in
his own parish it was quite the fashion
for the man, when giving the ring, to
say to the woman:
with my body 1 thee wash up, and
with all my hurdle goods, I, thee, and
thou"
He said the women were generally
better up I'M this part of the service than
the men.
One day, however, a bride startled
him by promising, in what she sup
posed to be the language of the prayer
book, to take her husband "to ave and
to 'old from this day fortni't for bet
terer horse, for richerer power, in sig.
gerness health, to love cherries, and to
bay"
What meaning this extraordinary
VOW conveyed to the woman's own
mind, the incumbent said, it baff1ed
him to conjecture.
