FINS OF THE FLYING FISH.

They Are Used as ParachUtes Rather
Than as Wings.
Out from the warmer seas fly the
flying fish, the fish of which every one
has heard, which yet rome can see for
the first time without a gasp of amaze
ment, without feeling as though be-
holding the miraculous, the fish which
has given rise to more untruthful Sto-
rles than any other fish in all the seas.
Undoubtedly the flying fish has wings
like bird; undoubtedly it flies, yet not
as q bird. 1t does not flap the wing
like, pectoral fins on which 1t Is up
borne, nor, once launched In the air.
can it change it's course by any move
ment of it's wings until It dips again
to the water. Yet it will pass a ship
making ten knots in the hour and trav-
el in the air as far as 500 feet at q
time.
Astounding, indeed. is the sight of q
shoal of flying fish taking to the air.
skimming far over the surface when
the sea is calm, leaping high over
great waves when gales blow. Fish
seem ludicrously out Of their element
in the air, but that fish should fly is
not really more wonderful than that
some animals and birds. like the otter
or the penguin, dive and swim to per
lection.
The flying fish's fms are really pava
chutes to support and steady it's body
rather than wings to propel it. TIE
lobe of the tail gives propulsion to the
body as it leaves the water. a flying
fish measures about foot in length
and it's long. transparent pectoral fins
reach almost to the tail; but, though
very large when expanded, they car
be folded up very neatly. Its flight il
short and intermittent. and it mus

Dumas, wealth and Poverty.

Dumas Wealth and Poverty.
Alexandra Dumas rise to wealth and
luxury was almost rs marvellous as
that of his most celebrated hero. He
built a magnificent chateau, which he
named Monte-Christo. There he enter
tanned all comers, friend and stranger
alike, with more than oriental magnifi-
cence and sometimes with oriental
mystery. His purse was open to all
who sought it, and the day came when
he experienced Timon's fate without
acquiring Timons disposition. He
could not become a misanthrope.
though his fortune disappeared almost
as suddenly as it came. and then he
learned the ingratitude Of men. His
last days were passed not In poverty,
but in narrow circumstances. He left
Paris In the fall of 1870 just as the
German army was closing in to besiege
it and when France was feeling its
deepest woe. To the last lie preserved
his gayety and youthful spirit. II had
but one napoleon in my pocket when
first came here" he said. ''I go away
with two, and yet they call me a
spendthriftw

Accurate Delay.

Many stories are told of the lack OF
punctuality upon southern railroads.
1t is said that when a New England
man found his train, advertised to
leave at II o'clock. starting at exactly
that hour he complimented the con
ductOr.
"Just ON timc, see." he said genial
ly. 'All this talk I've heard of the
lateness of your trains is without foun-
dation. I've no doubt"
The conductor smiled at him gently.
'This train. SIR" he said without Il
trace of embarrassment. lis not today s

Declined to Run
Republican Candidates Withdraw

Yesterday afternoon .. E. Gregory,
Republican candidate for councilman
at-large, and J. X Brown, candidate
for councilman from the second ward,
withdrew from the ticket
The Republican committee named
Willis P. Haynes. Charley ConnelPs
partner, in Mr.. Gregory's place, and
J. Villaescusa in Mr.. Browns place.
There are rumors that others on the
Republican ticket intend to withdraw
before the election.
1t seems to be conceded by political
observers that, with the exception oi
Mayor Schumacher, the Republican
ticket will be badly defeated.

II the Century Of THE Royal Family
If England tells this anecdote OF
Queen Victoria:
one can imagine a priVy council a.
which the new ministers had to be en-
rolled. The admitted members stood
round the room; the novices knelt n
the centre. The Queen looked Wistiui-
" at those who were technically ner
servants. but who were really ner
masters, wondering what her rela-
tions with them would be, anu
whether they were fit to bear the puf-
den intrusted to them. Some VINO
accept office are perhaps surprised at
tbe details OF the ceremony. One
whose duties necessitated that ne
should be for some time absolutely
alone with the queen, in a small Dom
without q single attendant, wondered
what she would say to him and ne re-
NV to her. The difficulty was
solved by his saying nothing, n the

A prominent public official began to
show signs of badness, and then rather
surprised his friends by appearing
with a sleek. weil-groomed crop of
dark hair. For some time no n sus-
pected a wig. But a few days ago he
appeared with the top of his head
covered with the usual dark brown
hair, but sharp line, from the tips
Of the ears, marked a strong contrast,
for the hair below the line was Of the
bright golden hue which is the pride

1t was found out that the man found
his natural hair was turning gray and
desired to make it match the wig, so
he invested in a preparation warranted
to darken the hair, and in the secret
of his owl room applied it. But, ow-
ing to some strange chemical combina-
lion. instead of making the silyered
hair dark it made the dark hair golden,
and so far the unfortunate man has
found nothing that will counterfeit the
striking contrast, so he is compelled to
endure no small amount of chatting
