"Fish are a good deal like people, 7 said Superintendent Spencer, of the New York aquarium. sYou can't al- to expect of them. Look at that fel- low there, nowi''
 He pointed to tiger fish whicl, was putting it's nose against the glass of it's tank No more villain ous face of the pugnacious sort could be found in day's search in the haunts of the third-rate pugil- ists.
 Looks as if he would fight at the wriggle of fin, doesn't he?'' the superintendent continued. "See those jawsl Bad eye, too. We'll, sir, that is the most gentle fish in the aqlaE- ium-one of the clinging kind, that seeks affection and kindness. Now over there is lady fish. Just ob- serve those brilliant colors, and that dear, innocent face, and notice the coaxing, graceful movements of it's tail. You'd think it would eat out of your hand, and droop if you scolded it.
 "On the contrary, it's the most un- 1adylike fish in this coilection;N it's temper is shrewish, and it's habits are bad, and if you give it a chance it would bite you Like a savage bull pup. It's a vicious fish, and doesn't deserve all those fine airs it has,
 MT. Spencer put his hand near the glass front of the tank, says the New York Mail and Express. There was an instant commotion; the in sinuating tail lashed the water, and that angelic mouth bumped sharply against the barrier in a swift effort to nip the tip of the superintend- ent's finger.

TO GIVE PROTECTION

 Working Miners
A CAVALRY COMPANY CALLED OUT.
Strikers Profess to Be. as Firm as Ever and Claim There Wfn Be No Desertions From
 Their hanks.

; WILKESBARRE, Pa, Sept. D. Some of the local coal operators after being shown copy of the statement just issued by President Mitchell of the United Mine Workers say it will be probably the last he will give to the public before the ending of the strike They claim his appeal is made up or generaIities and that he endeayors to win public sympathy by making plea for child labor One operator said the condition of child labor in the coal re zion is much better than it is in the manufa curing districts of the country; that the wages paid are better and the working hours shorter. At strike head quarters Mr. MitchellS latest deliver ance is termed 'tten strike" and that the facts he presents are irrefutabls.
 The military authorities, Sheriff Ja7 cobs and some of the superintendents of the coal companies in this vicinity held a meeting in the office of one of the coal companies and talked over. a plan by which the troops can be moved promptly to scenes of disturbance.
 It is not the purpose of the military to do police duty, but if any of the companies can get men to go to work the soldiers will give them protection 1t is reported that attempts will now be made to resume work at several of the collieries in this region, which have been idle since the strike began, but the report cannot be verified.
 At strike headquarters it is claimed that there will be. no change in the sit uation the coming week, which is the twenty first of the strike, that the strikers are as firm as ever and that there will be no assertions from the ranks to make it possible for the coal companies to start up any new col Heries.

Eggs consumed in England during the past 12 months would, it is com puted, fill upward of 10000 railway trucks.

Question Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers never thought of using
anything else for Indigestion or Bilious
ness. Doctors were scarce, and they
seldom heard of appendicitis, Nervous
REGISTRATION or Heart failure. etc.
They used August Flower to clean out
the system and stop fermentation of
undigested food, regulate the action of
the liver, stimulate the nervous and
organic actions of the system, and that
is all they took when feeling dull or bad
with headaches and other aches. You
only iced few doses of Green's Au-
gust Flower, in liquid form. to make
you satisfied there is nothing serious
