AETER 35 YEARS.
The lafayette Fish Again Waits the
 shores of Connecticut.

Only once before in the history of angling has the Lafayette fish been seen
 in the waters of the United States. It
 is here this season for the second time,
 and it is stated on creditable authority that several specimens of its kind have
 been caught off Bridgeport harbor.
 The Lafayette fish is known among sci
 entists as liostomus xanthurus. It is
 similar in appearance to the pinfsh or
 Dream, and is somewhat similar to the
 Pongie.
 The fish gained it's common name be- cause its first appearance was at the
 time of the visit of the Marquis de La fayette to this country, seventy-f1ve years ago. It was then found in great numbers all along the New England coast and was given it's name through the great popularity of the distin- guished visitor. The next year fisher men looked for it, but 1t could not be found, and the first caught since then were taken by well known fisherman from this city several days ago. He was much at loss to know what they were, but found on investigation that they were the famous fish that had dis appeared.
 The fish is described scientifically as a scienoid of oblong form with the back elevated to the front, a steep pro- file and no teeth in the lower jaw. The sides are marked with sixteen dark bands tending obliquely forward and a distinct spot on the shoulder. Although of small size it is highly esteemed for the delicacy of its flavor.
 It is supposed to be of the same fam fly as the butter fish and dollar fish, but unlike these has no scales The fish Is uninteresting enough to look at but the fact that it has been seen only twice in history makes it an object of To what causes it's disappear ance can be attributed Is not known. The fish did not put in an appearance until late in the fall of the year in which its acquaintance was first formed and before winter had closed in it had been caught in great numbers. It seems probable that this will be the case this fall.
 The fisherman said that the fish did not bite in a very gamy manner and that there was little fun connected with them, but that the flavor of the flesh was so fine that he would try for them again. They are caught in deep water with very small hooks bait ed with shrimp or sand worms A Standard reporter saw one of the fish yesterday.

What Great Britain Will DO With Il
Transyaal.

What Great Britain Will DO With the
TransvaaI.
Dispatches Of the past few days indl-
cate that Great Britain intends to use
more force against the Transvaal than
she used against Napoleon, and twice
as much as was required for the con-
quest of Egypt.
General Sir Redvers Butler is to
have command of all the forces in
South Africa, and it is reported that he
accepted this command only on condi'
ton that he should have force of be-
tween 10000 and 10000 men and that
his operations should not be interfer'
red with by the authorities at home.
General Butler embarked for the
Transvaal at Southampton, England,
last Sunday morning. 1t is said to be
his purpose to proceed at once to South
Africa and to there await the arrival OF
all his forces. 1t is now calculated
that the Beers can only raise about 49,
600 fighting men, and the English be.
lieve that these can be crushed almost
at blow provided that the blow is not
struck until everything is in good
readiness, which will not be until
about the first of December.

ment of colored children is 1,54G

CERTIFICATES TO TEACH.

The county board of school exami'

vaal border, and is the headquarters Of
Cecil Rhodes, who is the principal own
er. Rhodes is largely responsible fol
the troubles of the Beers and they
would he glad to get hold of him. 1t
is quite likely that they will raise the
temperature of his neighborhood very
considerably, and if they catch him he
will not stand frst-class chance OF
being held for great while as pris.
oner of war.
For quite a while there was consider.
able doubt as to whether the Orange
Free State would take part in the
trouble. 1t has no real grievance
against Great Britain. But now the
Free State is acting with the Trans,
vaal. 1t holds that Great Britain has
so ruthlessly violated every agreement
with the Transvaal, that the Free State
cannot hope for anything else than TO
share the Transvaal's fate. 1t has
therefore decided TO stand or fall with
the Transvaal.
Many of the mountain tops in the
Transvaal are covered with snow, and
it is suggested that the cold weather
may interfere with the operations oi
the Beers. This, however, is only q
suggestion, as the Beers are probably
as we'll able to stand the cold as are
the British.
