THE CREVALLES.
CohStantlS Circll1E Fishes nt the
Aquarium Tint the CnIidren Call
the "Merry-GG-'Roundu

Children looking at the crevaIles in
their tank at the aquarium call them
the merry-SO-round fishes, because
they are constantly circ!ing around in
their tank. following one another like
the animals of the .merry-go-'round.
The crevaIes are singu!ar!y nervous
and sensitive. and they are always on
the go, says the New York Sun.
These crevalles have now been in cap
lvity more than year. which is per-
haps longer than any were ever kept be-
lore; certainly longer than any have
been kept in the aquarium. these being
the first to be carried through a winter,
which was made possible by the extern
sion of the aquarium's warmed salt wa
ter supply, so that some others than
tropical fishes could have the benefits
OF IT. The crevalle goes south in win
ter, where, in some waters, it is abun-
dant. 1t does not come north in num-
bers every summer; its visits are ir-
regular, and sometimes there are none
here worth mentioning for four or five
years; so that on the whole it is rather n
rare fish in these waters. These speci-
mems were taken in Granvesend bay;
they have doubled in size and weipht
since they were put into the tank.
Besides being nervous and sensitive
and easily frightened fish the crevaIle is
fish of beauty with its sides of solid.
silvery pearl.
