Writing to a sporting contemporary
gentleman offers to receive any num-
Der of hedgepigs 'up to a thousand.
as he believes they would do good on

never received full justice He is.
take him all in all, an admirable
beast Everybody knows that the
hedgehog eats snails and slugs, but
few peonle, perhaps. have realized that
he is also a liberal consumer Of moles.
Now, there are many estates in Devon
shire where the mole employs a band
Of men TO keep his family down. and
there are places In Surrey. quite near
London, where neither man nor trap
can stop the rayages of these creatures
on what Is intended to be the lawn.
Where the soil is sandy the mole lives
deep and he win fling up a chain of
veritable mountains in bis Journeys
under ones lawn in the course Of
single night This conduct may be
borne with in parks and meadows. but
in gardens 1t becomes intolerable. It
may be suggested, therefore, to those
householders whose lawns are ravaged
by moles whom neither trap nor pro
fesslonal trappist can control that
fcw hedgehogs in the garden might
bring the pestilential moles to some
sense Of the fitness of ngs.-London

Curious Fish FROM a Driven We'll.

Some time ago a driven well was
sunk at the Howell Creamery, Pine
Island, to the depth of $50 feet. The
supply Of water obtained equalled only
one quarter Of the amount necessary,
and In order to obtain a greater sup
ply two charges Of joveite, a new ex-
plosive, were discharged by William J.
Brown. an expert in its use Both
charges were set of simultaneously by
an electric battery. and a column Of
water eight inches In diameter was
thrown to a height Of 300 feet. Many
curious things came up from the bot
tom OF the well. including three curl
GUS fish. They were about eight inches
long and had neither head nor tail,
both ends being alike. They could
swim as easily backward as forward
and were not provided with eyes or
mouth. There We're several small ori-
fees at each end Of these curious fish.
When they came down with a shower
Of stones from the top of the column
Of water they bounded repea tedly

officers in the county, and should be

men-men of Education, of good
character and sound judgmen and
free from political predjudices. We
are 10 elect new board in this
month. Few voters we presume are
prepared to decide whether the old
board has done we'll or i'll, as no re-
port of their work has been given
the public so for as we haye heard.
What they have done-how and where
they have appropriated the public
money is known to themselves, OF
course, and doubtless they have done
well with it, but as no official state
ment has been made of it, few people
know whether to praise them and try
to re elect them or not.
