The Sensitive por-y.

The porgy, common as it is, is a
beautiful fish when seen in the water
in a favorable light, and it is likewise
one of the most sensitive Of fishes. In
captivity it is easily frightened. 1t will
take alarm from something done by a
passing visitor, a thoughtless touching
of glass, or something of that sort. and
60 rushing around until it is exhausted.
Sometimes IA porgy in tank may,
when frightened, jump out Of the water
and bump its nose against the wire
screen over the tank and be seemingly
paralyZed by the shock and rendered I'M
able TO swim. In such Il condition it
will lie upon its back. mutionless, ex-
cept perhaps for tiuttering of its fins,
for an hour, and then il may come baCb
all right again and swim about 50 lively
and in such good form that you can t
tell then which fish of the lot it was
that had bumped its head.
A popularity Of the porgy is its la
bility to blindness. Blindness is not un-
common among fishes. but there are
perhaps more blind porgies than there
are fish Of any other kind There's a
saying among fishermen. "As blind as n

STEAMER MAR|POSA
IN TERRIBLE Storm

The steamer Mariposa arrived from
Colonies Tuesday evening after re-
markably rough trip which made her
many hours late.
Between Sydney and Auckland she
was hove to for thlrty-nine hours in a
most terrible southwest gale. Captain
Rennie says that two or three times
II looked as II the vessel would foun-
der but, being such staunch boat she
weathered the storm in good style.
Her decks were flooded time and again
and, at the beginning of the storm, a
great wave came aboard and taking
charge of the starboard deck, flooded
the trip to Page Page the vessel had
exceedingly bad weather and was han
dicapped by bad coal.
She had a full through passenger
list and took but six passengers from
this port, getting away in hurry about
o'clock this morning, AS she had
the Australian mail aboard and was
late every EFFORT will be made to push
her to San Francisco. IL Is thought
that possibly she will get in about the
same time that the Sierra does and
maybe an hour or two before. Had
the Sierra not gotten away as soon as
she did the mail from the Mariposa
would have been put aboard and the
Sierra given rush orders. As 1t is the
