any inducement held out to her in the
way of compensation, or reward. The
confession was made because she
wanted to correct the great wrong she
had committed. The false testimony
had worried her to such an extent that
she decided to make a clean breast of
it ard tell the truth. To the best of
her knowledge she had never met Mr..
Yetter before. When asked if she
was addicted to the use of opium, she
answered no.
Mr.. Ikeler concluded by informing
the woman that she was ''prize
winner" the remark occasioned a
hearty laugh in which she and her CO.
adjutor took part.
The evidence considered, Justice
Ringler felt justified in holding the
prisoner for court, and fixed the bail
at $1,000. Although it was stated by
the prisoner on Saturday that his num-
erous friends were clamoring for an
opportunity to 60 on his bond, the call
for bail on Tuesday was unanswered,
and consequently he was remanded to
the custody OF the Sheriff.
District Attorney Harman then
moved that warrant be issued for the
arrest of Mrs. McHenry on the charge
of perjury committed at the habuas
corpus hearing of Jacob Evans, held
on July 2oth last.
Mrs. Mcflenry was Immediately
placed under arrest by Constable Miles
Betz and taken before Justice Ring
ler who said he would hold her IN the
sum of $1,000 for further hearing.
Not having her counsel, James Scarlet
of Danville, present, Mrs. McHenry
asked that the hearing be continued.
This was done by Justice Ringler, who
fixed the time of the hearing for
Thursday morning at ten o'clock, DR..
J. J. Myers, of Nescopeck, was &C
cppted as surety.
Immediately following Saturdays
attempt to convict Eveland, Mr..
Hinckley council for Evans; who is in
Jail charged with the murder, made an
attempt to have his client released on
bail. Judge Little refused the request.
District Attorney Harman was as
sisted in the prosecution of the case
by Hon. H. M. Hinckley of Danville,
c. c. Yetter and Harry Stees, Esq's.
The prisoners interests were looked
after by Fred Ikeler, Frank Ikeler and
VIM. Chrisman, Esq's.
Further and more sensational dis.
closures are looked for because it is
believed by many that the confession
con,ains more than was Brought out
at the hearing. Mr.. Ikeler asked that
the confession be produced, but foi
some reason the prosecution held il
back.

Why He Kept q Dog.

A prominent dog fancier and wealthy
man of Philadelphia stepped into a gro
Gerry the other night. says The Press, and
accidentally stumbled over a fat old Ger
man, who was sitting in a corner smok-
ing his pipe.
Under his chair was the most remark
able specimen of a dog that the gentle
man had ever seen. 1t had the appear
ance of a pug. with rough red hair and q
long tail. 1t was impossible to resist
laughing at the placid old man and his
nondescript dog.

the gentleman.

than that" asserted the gentleman en-

THE SUCKER FISH.
How These Strange Creatures Attach
Themselves to Larger Fish.

How These Strange Creatures Attach
Themselves to Larger Fish.
People of certain temperament some
times attain their wishes by hanging to
the skirts of persons of larger capacity.
In the fish world :hese find their coun-
terpart in the remora family 1.-THE suck
ers). which is represented on the Atlantic
coast by FIVE species. In these fishes the
first dorsal fin. e., the fin on the back
nearest the heads transformed for all
practical purposes into a sucking organ.
by means of which they can attach them
selves very firmly to the gill covers or
sides of larger fish. Thus there are the
shark sucker, the swordfsh sucker, the
billfish sucker, etc. Being excellent
swimmers. it is difficult to see why they
prefer to go through life as an appendage
and burden to others, but it is well
known that they travel with sharks con-
tinuously in this manner. and their hosts
have actually been found emaciated and
exhausted from carrying about their un-
invited guests.
An eminent observer Of fishes has
thought it very probable that the object
of the suckers is to share the fragments
of food with their hosts, but whatever
the cause the latter are surely entitled to
our sympathy. 1t happens. however, that
this very propensity for hanging on" has
recoied on the sucker much to his disad-
vantage, for as soon as man discovered
this popularity he cudgeled his brain for
some practical application which would
rebound to his own advantage, and, be-
ing himself perhaps a hanger on" to
other people. some resourceful individual
conceived the idea of using this fish as q
bait and make him do the catching. In
Ogilby's America" occurs the following
description of how the Indians of long
ago used these fishes to aid in the cap
ture of others:
columbus from hence proceeding on
further westward discovered a fruitful
Coast. vcrsing the Mouth Of a River,
whose Water runs Boyling into the Sea.
Somewhat further he saw very strange
Fishes. especially of the Guiacan, not un-
like an Eel, but with an extraordinary
great Head, over which hangs Skin like
a Bag This Fish is the Natives Fisher:
for. having a Line or handsom cord fas-
tened about him, so soon as a Turtel. or
any other of his Prey. comes above wa
ter, they give him Line; whereupon che
Guiacan, like an Arrow out of a Bowe.
shoots toward the other Fish. and then
gathering the Mouth of the Bag on his
Head like Purse-net, holds them 20
fast, that he let not loose till hald up out
Of the Water."-Los Angeles Times.
