A FISH-CATCHlNG FISH.
He Has n Mouth One-third the Size
of His Body.


Most remarkable of strange fishes Is
the angler fish. whose very name seems
a paradox. The fishing fish is never
theless Il reality and stern one to all
that approach those awful jaws Of his.
With body the color of mud he gen
orally lies in the shadow of some rock
OIL the bottom of the sea, waiting mo-
.tionless for the approach of his prey.
. He is provided with an odd kind of fin
Just over the mouth. and this Is held
out in front of him to give warning Of
the coming of something to be swal-
lowed. One taken alive was expert
mented on, and it was found that II
tass projecting fin was touched with
stick. even though the stick did not
come near the mouth. the jaws closed
convulsively, This shows that the fin,
by some provision of nature. closes the
jaws as soon as it is touched.
The mouth is tremendous, growing
to the width of foot when the whole
fish is only three feet long. One Of
these anglers was caught not long
since, and. thought was only % inches
long, uSn 10 lnCneS long WAS IOuuu
sticking in its throat The angler Is
provided with peculiar teeth set in
double or treble rows along the jaws
and at tho entrance Of the throat.
Some of these teeth are foot long.
He is not a pretty fish to look at, but
he attends strictly to business and will
swallow anything that touches his
warning fin. whether it is meant for
food or not
All kinds of things have been found
in the stomachs of anglers from bits
of lead and stone to fish almost as large
as the angler itself This Is without
doubt one of the most peculiar and in
teresting fish in the whole ocean.-St.
Louis Globe Democrat.

chest girth Of thirty-six inches and a
weight Of $50 pounds. He is nearly an
inch taller than his English cousin,
and more than an inch taller than his
distant cousin, the German. He prob
ably looks over the heads OF all Euro
pean peoples. In weight, however, he
is exceeded by both Englishman and
German, being of simmer and lighter
build. although he is probably as heavy
as the average European. His family
consists of one wife and three chill
dren. a fourth child having died in
infancy. His age is 81 years, and he
expects to live thirty years longer His
expectation of life is greater by
year or two than that Of the repre-
sentative of any other people, those
who most nearly approach him being
our kin, the English and Germans. His
wife is thirty-hve years Of age, is five
feet four inches in height, and weighs
l26 pounds. She will live to the age
of sixty-eight years as her expectation
Of life is slightly greater than that
of her husband. They were married

that he had contracted in former years
and cancelling debts with firms that
had forgotten all about them. None

the lawyers fees which his creditors

FadS of
Collectors

OF all mild forms of mental eccen-
tricity the mania for collecting" for
collecting's sake is the most wide
spread and, as a rule. the least harm
full France, as might be expected, is
the collectors own country In pop
ulation of about 39,OO0,0O0 there are
100000 collectors. The French have
a mania for collecting in every line ex-
cept families. Even the offer of large
prizes to fathers and mothers for the
largest collection Of children cannot
make that sort Of collecting popular or
fashionable But when it comes to
buttons or corks, why, that is another
matter. One Frenchman has a much
priced collection of corks labeled and
classified with the greatest care-sou-

shows with vast pride and vaunts as
being superior in interest to a collec-
ton Of suspenders possessed by a
hated rival collector Paris, however,
inclines to the suspenders. One collec-
tor boasts OF a collection of garters
contributed by popular actresses and
another Of a collection Of funeral in
vitations, such as are sent out in
France after a death. The French pos
ter collectors are innumerable, and
there is one man who has a mania for
gathering up old advertising bills and
posters, which he obtains by constant
ly haunting the shops of the city, espe-
ciaIly the grocery shops. In thrifty
France the luxury and extravaganza
Of paper bags for carrying articles
home from the shops are almost un-
known. The grocer, the huckster and
the . fruiterer use old newspapers,
leaves from old ledgers-any piece Of
old paper big enough to wrap their
goods in. This collector, Dablin by
name, goes about the shops fussing
over these wrapping papers, and when
he finds anything like a postor or an
advertising bill he buys a cents worth
Of something and has it wrapped up in

New YOrk'S
Shame

Recent disclosures in regard to the
manner in which New York police Of
acials harbor crime in the precincts
under their control and the many
fruitless efforts that have been made
by victims of those under the authori-
ties protection to have the haunts of
vice and dissipation suppressed, have
brought prominently before the public
the nauseating condition of affairs in
the American metropolis. Without a
doubt, the Tenderloin, where wicked
ness has reigned supreme during the
terms Of many prominent police OFF,
cials, now harbors the most depraved
and hardened class Of humanity to be
found in a civilized community. All
New Yorks vice and thievery do not
shelter themselves within the borders
Of the "Tenderloin" by any means;
they find police protection" in many
other sections. But 1t is in the Ten
derloin," In the heart of the city, that
dazzling center appealing to citizen
and stranger, that both have in
trenched themselves. Never was known
here before such bold licentiousness,
such an utterly low moral tone as the
"Tenderloin now presents. There were
evil times 20 years ago, when Tom"
Bray, Johnny" Camphenee, PATSY"
Egan, Harry" HILL THE" Allen,
"Bunkers" and others carried on their
notorious dives in the quarter about
Houston street and Broadway, Bleeck-
er, Mercer, Greene and Thompson
streets. And from 1890 to 1894 vice
and crime, that inseparable alliance,
had an undlsturbed sway. Yet, with
the exception that murders in low re-
sorts are not 80 numerous as formerly,
1t is extremely doubtful whether the
older generation had known more
vicious conditions than now are faunt-
ed in the Tenderloin, which Is en-
braced within the 18th precinct, from
Fourteenth to Forty-second street and
from Fourth to Seventh avenues. In
the Tenderloin, heterogeneous mass
is painfully jumbled together In this
incongruous district, the millionaire
touches elbows, as 1t were, with the So
cial outcast, and great hotels, marVels
Of luxurious comfort, and massive res
ldentlal palaces, throw their shadows
on the defiant brothel. Only a stones

Tokyo a City
of Pleasure

OF all the lands in the world none
sxerts the peculiar fascination of ia
pan. Others have equal beauty Of seen
cry, greater grandeur, more noble
works Of art, more interesting prob
lens Of society, writes David Starr
Jordan in the Humanitarian. But none
possesses an equal fascination. No one
who has been in the real Japan, which
lies outside the treaty ports and the
foreign hotels and railways, ever could
or ever would forget his experience.
No one, If he could, would ever fail to
return.
The great secret of this charm lies
with the people themselves. They
have made a fine art Of personal rela-
tions Their acts are those of good
taste and good humor. Two cities OF
about the same size and relative i'm
portance are Paris and Tokyo. No
two could show a greater contrast in
spirit. Both are in a sense cities Of
pleasure. Tokyo is a city Of continu-
GUS joyousness, little pleasures drawn
from simple things, which leave no
sting and draw nothing from future
happiness. Paris is feverish and feels
the difference in the morning" and
the hard, fierce lust and cruel deed"
which go with the search for pleasure
that draws on the future for the joys
Of the present.

appear that he has suffered any men

sequence of such indulgence. Though
by no means an Incorporate man,
neither is he an advocate Of total abb
stinence. Annually his family, which
means in the main himself, consumes
seven and one-half gallons Of spirits
and wine, and not less than seventy
FIVE gallons of beer. This last item IL
lustrates a characteristic acquired with
his German strain of blood. He uses
