A Fish and Lixard story.

One afternoon thought would go
down the river and troll. l had on my
hook live minnow and in little
while had strike, and hooked my
first fish, which seemed to be quite a
large one. I reeled him where could
see him and found it was large pike
Is or 80 inches long. 1 pulled him up
to my boat, but when I lifted him
from the water he was as light as a
feather. measured him and found he
was just so inches long and should
have weighed eight or nine pounds,
while he only weighed two. He was
just skin and bones. I killed him, took
my knife and cut him open and found
a live lizard, five inches long, in his
stomach. The reptile was as black as
coal and very lively, living "a hours
after I took him from his prison.

II anything should happen to menace
the stability Of the British throne, it
must be satisfaction to his royal
highness the Duke of York and Corn
wall to know that he could make a
comfortable living as tie proprietor Of
menagerie. Whenever loyal Austria
liam or New Zealander has come across
a rare specimen Of rabbit or freak
dingo dog within the last FIVE or six
months, he has boxed it up and shipped
it as a token of esteem to the nearest
port to be visited by the royal heir on
his trip to the Australian confederacy.
The latest gift was white Tasmanian
kangaroo. Just what use the future
king Of England can have for a white
kangaroo is not apparent, but for a
king out of a job it might be valuable
asset.

The Life Line In one,. H.na

There are three prominent lines in
the palm-the line of life, that of the
head and the heart line.
The line of life begins on the inner
boundary Of the palm, about midway
between the thumb and the forefinger.
If we imagine the left hand to be 4
map, with the fingers pointing north,
this line runs toward the southeast,
then curves toward the south and in
some hands curves finally toward the
southwest. 1t thus skirts the base or
''uprise" Of the thumb, known as the
uprise Of Venus. If it is deep, broad,
of good color and extends nearly or
quite to the wrist and if the rest of the
hand indicates vitality and cheerful
ness, the subject may be expected to live
to green old age; he has good dispo-
sition and the. qualities which good
health and good temper usually create.

to take him on the ground, which he
speedily attempted to do.
But on the ground the partridge was
far moresagile than he, running this
way and that with great speed. The
hawk would jump awkwardly up and
dart after the scudding partridge, who
just at the right moment jumped from
the ground and over his back, descend.

This went on for some time, until, as

strife by putting the partridge once

course, the hawk readily overlook and

BIG PRICES FOR ANIMALS.

e Small Sized Fortune Needed 30
buy Girn ne.
Because Of the difficulty of getting it
to America and of keeping it alive aft
er it arrives good giraffe is quoted at
$1,000. ssss
Next to the giraffe in the aristocracy
Of cost come the rhinoceros and the
hippo potamus, worth from $4,000 to
$1,000 each. # a dealer could breed
these animals, he could get rich, but
the big mammals rarely breed in cap
tfyity. About the only place in America
where hippopotanai have been known
to raise their young is in the menag-
erie in Central park, New York.
A chimpanzee of size is worth $1,000,
and when one reaches the intelligence
of the late Mr.. Crowley, Chico or Jo-
hanna he is beyond a fixed price. The
monkey kind are most uncertain prop-
erty.> The animal man says. they are
certain to die. But the ordinary ones
can be bought very cheaply. .s,1
One can buy a nice young baby ele-
plant for $1,000 at times, but really
good animal is worth from 81 800 to
$4,000. An elephant does not command
the maximum price because Of the
beauty of his countenance, the ele-
gance of his figure, his intellectual en-
doWments or his size, but because Of
sweet. sunny disposition A mean
elephant Is about the most evil of liy-
ing things. Sooner or later he has to
be killed, usually after he has slain
two or three keepers and done more
damage than he is worth. OF two ami
mails of equally good disposition the
larger and finer commands the higher
price, of course, but the most magnifi-
cent beast with an inclination for MUIR
der isn't worth as much as a very COM
mon one that is trustworthy is,

Judge Moves tells the Tribune at
Minneapolis: .In Nome there are fifty
five saloons. Each one pays a license
of $1,000. Restaurants, mercantile
establishments, all lines Of business
under the code of Alaska pay a license.
This revenue comes to the court and it
is used to conduct the business OF the
court. Part Of it goes to the school
fund. Where municipalities have
been organized a certain portion goes
to the municipalities under certain
conditions. The municipalities also
have a right to levy a tax. All moneys
are paid out by the clerk Of courts or
deposited by him in the United States
treasury. Last year we turned in $780,
900. The revenues r increasing
yearly, and SO are the schools, which is
a good thing" " !
