More managers may bring into play
more ideas, and furnish greater re-

the plan and purpose must be varied.

HIBERNATING FISHES.

Dead They Seem to- Some Aauurium
Visitors-Case of the Sea Turtles.
From the New York Sun.
This is the timeuof year when visitors not
familiar with thedhabits OF; fishes are likely
to tell the attendants at the Aquarium that
they think that certain fishes are dead.
This belief is prompted by the absolute
motionlessness of the fishes, even under
long observation. But these visitors are
easily reassured. 1t is explained to them
that this, is the season of these fishes hi
bernation, when in nature they would bury
themselves in the mud. They can't give
them mud at the Aquarium very well, be-
cause II they did it would choke up the wa
ter pipes. And SO the fishes can't bury
themselves here. but they lie motionless on
the bottom of the tank; in the case of some
of these fishes, huddled together in over
tapping masses as though to keep warm.

river catfish, now, dormant. One might
stand for weeks, day and night, In front Of
Its tank and never see it move a muscle .
but the fish is all right. for all that, and
the summer it will wake up some fine morn
ing and want it's breakfast in hurry An
other thing that people call attention to-
ana that dlsturbs some gentle-hearted folks,
is that the smaller sea turtles, in their
division of the pool in which the big logger
heads live, have no place where they can
climb out of water, If they should want to-
But as a matter Of fact they don't want any
such place. Every turtle in the Aquarium
that lives more or less on land, in nature
mas mere something on which to set foot :
hoating island Of cork to climb out on, or
stumps, or stones, or a sandy beach in it's
tank. to which 1t can make it's way out of
water at pleasure. But the sea turtles don't
want such things
In nature they might keep the sea and
keep afioat for weeks or months at time,
coming ashore only when they deposited
thelr eggs. So these turtles don't suffer
here for lack of something they never had
before they came. But, anyhow, once a
day the turtles do find themselves on solid
ground, for once a day the pool is drained
again, these sea turtles are out of water on
the firm foundation of the bottom of the
pool. SO that. though they have no resting
place, as such, they are. after all, out Of
