HE CURES FISH.
Not in the Old Way, With Salt, but
With Modern Surgical Skill

Not in the Old Way, With Salt, but
With Modern Surgical Skill.
Horse doctors are called veterinary
surgeons, but fish doctors are SO new
that they have not yet found time to
invent for themselves a long, imposing
name. They are so very new, indeed,
that many persons are not aware of
their existence. Many, however, who
go in for fish culture, and who keep
aquariums, know of one or more such
specialists, and call them in whenever
anything goes wrong with their finny,
cold blooded, silent pets.
The fish doctor. like the regular doc
tor, gives medicine, performs surgical
operations and superintends his pa
tents diet and environment. These
are the principal operations which he
performs: Trimming the fish's tail
with fish shears when fungous growths
enlarge it; stripping the fish, to remove
the eggs or milt that have not been
naturally deposited; exercising with
the lance tumors, lacerated scales and
splinters of bone.
Among the medicines that the fish
doctor gives are caster oil, for swelling
of the swimming bladder, and nux
vomica, for debility and emaciation,
This specialist also presides over the
food of the fish, inspects their food
troughs thoroughly, and makes micro
scOpic examinations of their water, to
see that it contains the proper life Civ
ing elements in their due proportions.
Regarding these matters, which are as
important to healthy as to sick fish,
the leading fish doctor Of Philadelphia
recently said:
"A food trough of enamelled ware,
that will not rust. should be used for
fish. At the same time each day their
oatmeal should be put in this trough,
which should always be kept in the
same place, and as consequence of
this treatment the fish will gather
around their trough at meal time,
which they will instinctively recognize,
as greedily as hogs, burying their noses
in the food when it is set before them,
and crowding and pushing one another
in a healthy, ravenous and hoglike
manner. The trough should be cleaned
once a day, lest it get sour. But the
water of the fish should rarely be
changed. Even when it becomes foul
smelling it should only be changed
gradually-a quart a day. say-for to
change it all at once has the effect of a
terrible exposure-is, indeed, the same
as if you should snatch child from its
warm bed and lay it, naked, out of
doors in the cold night wind and
snow"
It is not the detention of fish from
| their native element that makes fish
surgery difficult, for they can be kept
out of the water for five. six and seven

TARIFF REVISION NEEDED.
A wen-Known Boston Republica

A Well-Known Boston Republican
Urges Party Action.
Ancient history is apt to be tiresome.
and fault finding is invariably tire
some but had we not better consider
the election which has passed, and see
if no good lesson can be drawn from it?
For many years our senators and
representatives would not take up in
earnest the question OF gold and silver
the question Of standard currency
equal to the best standard in the world
and such was becoming to great and
rich nation. Just at the last moment
our junior senator espoused that cause
vigorously, and by a tremendous effort
throughout the land we saved our ma
ton from disgrace and terrible loss,
but only after the very severe lesson Of
1893. .,..,>@h NH
People had become very much fright
ened at the state of affairs, and not
knowing whether they were going to
get back a good dollar for a dollar
spent, they kept their dollars in their
pockets or in their cellars; in short,
distrust ruled our country and pretty
nearly ruined 1t for the time being.
Our representatives in congress, both
from this state and from many others,
had been warned and warned that such
a disaster would come, for the poorer a
| man may be the more he cares TO keep
what he has. On the day when it was
the settled policy of the nation that
gold should be our standard, because
it was the standard of the other great
| nations, that day the hidden capital of
the nation began to come out, and
presently we took our proper position
as a nation in the world.
Our representatives learned their les
son very late, but they at least recog-
nized the handwriting on the wall.
One very able man, who might have
gone to the head of the class, lost his
chance for want. of thought and cour-
age on this subject.
Now again comes the grave question.
of a revision of the tariff. 1t is sur
prising and interesting to find how
many thorough old-time protectionists
! think a revision of the tariff essential.
Several of our leading representatives
hold that view, and yet the platform at
Boston refused that view.
| five grant that protection once had
its advantages and allowed our indus
tries to be built up, we must, neverthe-
less, grant that a time must come when
these industries are built up and have
grown so strong that our goods can 60
out to the whole world. This time has
come and we no longer need duties on
many articles, either raw or manufac-
tuerd. If we are to receive proper con-
sideration from other nations, those
nations must receive proper considera-
| ton at our hands.
| Any experienced trader or merchant
knows that he cannot expect good buss
mess unless IT. is built on a. reasonable
fair basis, and what is true Of men is
| of course, true Of nations. An old, ex-
| perienced merchant who is very firm ii.
his views about protection tells us that

SPLENDID PRODUCTION.
"Arizona" at the Hyperion Last Night
Was Very Fine.

"Arizona" at the Hyperion Last Night
Was Very Fine.
Arizona" was presented at the Hy-
perion last night to an appreciative au-
dience, and in such splendid manner
that curtain calls were necessary. This
powerful play has been seen several
times previously here, but it is one of
such high order that it bears repetition
and should have the very generous pa
tronage of the amusement-loving pub
lie. While the cast which presents it
this year is changed to some extent,
yet they have been for the better, and
the company which presented it last
night, and which it repeats it tonight,
is even stronger than on any previous
appearance.
The staging of this production is
magnificent and the scenery is from
sketches made by Walter Burridge
while in Arizona. The scenes are on
Canby's Ranch in the Aravaipa valley
and In Fort Grant, Uncle Sans head
quarters. There are soldiers, cow
punchers, etc., their rough costumes
and accoutrements all true to nature
and arranged by a famous artist Of
western scenes.
The play cannot be called strictly
military, yet there is vein Of that life
in 1t and the incident and story which
it tells cannot but help be taken into
the thoughts of all and carefully re-
fiected. 1t must be seen to be appre-
ciated.
ARIZONA" will be repeated at the Hy-
perion tonight.

over half century and was respected
by all. The Rev. DR.. Watson L. Phil
lips, pastor of the Church of the Re-
deemer, conducted the services most
impressively. He delivered g. short but
touching funeral grafton and spoke
most effectively of the deceased. The
remarks were feeling and appropriate,
especial mention being made of the
high esteem which the members of the
congregation had for Mr.. Lines and of
his long and useful life.
There was a profusion of beautiful

utes of affection and esteem. The reg
ular quartette of the Church of the Re
deemer beautifully rendered two selec-
tons.
The honorary pallbearers were T. P.
Merwin, who Joined the church fifty
three years ago, the same year in
which deceased became a member,
Watson V. Coe of Orange street. both
of whom represented the Church, of the
Redeemer, c. S. Merriman and Henry

FOR COLLECTOR OF PORT
MEETING HELD LAST EVENING
TO DISCUSS CANDIDATES.

Congressman SPerry PFeseat-Msny
Speeches Made and Animated Dis
enssion Followed.
Grand Army hall was fairly well filed
last evening with members of the order
and business men of this city to con-
slider the question OF the appointment
of new collector for the port. Con-
gresham Sperry was especially invit-
ed to be present and listen to remarks
in regard to the candidates.
General Greeley called the meeting to
order and acted as chairman. General
Greeley called on D. o. Lombard, past
commander of the Foot Guard; General
George H. Ford, Commodore w. S.
Wells, ex-Mayor Hendrick, ex-Lieuten-
ant Governor Dewsu. Past Commander
W. E. Morgan, George B. Martin and
Frank C. Bushnell, all of whom spoke
strongly in favor of Nathan Easter
brook for the position of collector of
the port.
After their remarks General Greeley
said 1t was an open meeting and invit-
ed any others to speak who wished to.
Immediately Mr.. Coe took the floor and
made an earnest speech in favor of the
present deputy collector, ]. Rice Win
chell, for the position of collector. He
was followed by Major Albee, who also
made a plea in favor of Mr.. Winchell.
Professor w. E. Chandler then took the
floor and objected to MIR. WinchelPs
appointment, as he would be retained
in his present place if Mr.. Easterbrook
was appointed, and said that Mr.. Win
chell was only seeking the position be-
cause it was question of dollars and
cents.
Captain Crafts spoke in favor of leav-
ing the whole matter in the hands of
Congressman Sperry to decide. Sew
eraI others also spoke and then Mr.
Winchell's supporters called upon the
chairman to take rising vote to de-
eide between the two candidates. Mr..
Bushnell and others objected to this
manner Of deciding the question, and
Chairman Greeley said that the meet
ing was called in the interests of Mr..
Easterbrook and that no vote would be
taken, and declared the meeting adj
journeG. The meeting then broke up
with animated discussions.

WALLINGPORD.

There was quite a little excitement
at the depot early last evening for a
very short space of time. Some per-
son whose name could not be learned
and evidently a stranger here got in
between the 5:26 train going south and
the 5:25 going north. The latter was a
trifie late and came in after the down
tram. The up train came to a sudden
stop as the engineer saw the situation.
giving the passengers a great shake up.
A crowd rushed to the spot but found
the man uninjured but somewhat
frightened.

The jury retired at 3:15.
In exactly thirteen minutes after the
jury retired word was brought to the
court room that a verdict had been
reached. 1t was 3:45 when Justice
Lambert took his seat. Molineux, who
had been brought into court on the first
notice from the jury room, sat calm and
confident as ever.
The old general was far more agitat-
ed than his son and it was evident that
the suspense was very hard upon him.
AS soon as Justice Lambert took his
seat he instructed the clerk to put the
question to the jury
Not guilty" said the foreman, in re-
ply to the formal inquiry, and MOlineux,
who had been standing to receive the
verdict. sank back in his chair.
There was burst of applause, but it
was speedily quelled by the court Of
ficers. Justice Lambert ordered the
court cleared and told the jurors to re-
main in their seats until it was cleared.
Then after counsel for both sides had
congratulated each other and the jury
and had thanked the court Justice

reached the sidewalk some five minutes
later received an even greater ovation
General Molineux when asked for an
expression of opinion on the verdict
wrote and signed for all his reporter
friends, the following:
THE struggle is DER, the battle done;
And might has lost, but right has
Won."
From the criminal court building Mo-
lineux went to the city prison. In max
ing his way to his old cell, and thence
to the front entrance he traversed a
considerable portion of both the old and
new prison; and everywhere he went
the news of his acquittal went too, but
prisoners cheered him. He even went
through the women's department where
there were many who cheered him.
Molineux, accompanied by General
MolineuX and two of his attorneys, en-
tered carriage and was driven away.
About 5000 persons, cheering and shout
ing, surrounded the carriage and great
ly delayed its departure. The keepers
of the Tombs prison came out and
shook hands with Molineux and many
people waved handkerchiefs from the
windows in the street
Cecil Molineux, after shaking hands
with his brother, stood weeping on the
steps of the Tombs prison. Molineux
himself was smiling and jubilant.

NATURES OWN CAPITAL CITY

In trying to describe the great pines
and sequoias of the Sierra. have often
thought that if one of those trees could
be set by itself in some city park, it's
grandeur might there be impressively
realized; while in it's home forests,
where all magnitudes are great, the
weary, satiated traveller sees none OF
them truly. 1t is so with these majes-
tic rock structures.
Though mere residual masses of the
plateau, they are lowered with the
grandeur and repose of mountains, to-
gether with the finely chiseled carving
and modelling of mans temples and
palaces, and often, to a. considerable
extent, with their symmetry. Some,
closely observed, look like ruins; but
even these stand plumb and true, and
show architectural forms loaded with
lines strictly regular and decorative.
and all are arrayed in colors that
storms and time seem only to brighten.
They are not placed in regular rows in
line with the river, but "a through
ither," as the Scotch say, in lavish, ex-
uberant crowds, as if nature in widest
extravaganza held her bravest struc-
lures as common as gravel piles. Yon-
der stands a spiry cathedral. nearly
five thousand feet in height, nobly
symmetrical with sheer buttressed
walls and arched doors and windows.
as richly finished and decorated with
sculptures as the great rock temples of
India or Egypt. Besides it rises huge
castle, with arched gateway, turrets,
wat CHI towers, ramDarts. etc, and to
the right and left palaces. obelisks and
pyramids fairly fill the gulf all coFos-
sal, and all lavishly painted and
carved. Here and there a fiat-topped
structure may be seen. or one imper-
fectly domed; but the prevailing style
is ornate Gothic with many hints of
Egyptian and Indian.
Throughout this vast extent of wild
architecture-nat own capital city
there seem to he no ordinary dwell
'ings. All look like grand and impor-
tant public structures, except perhaps
some of the lower pyramids, broad
based and sharp pointed, covered with
down. flowing talus like loosely-set tents
with hollow, sagging sides, The roofs
often have disintegrated rocks heaped
and draggled over them, but in the
main the masonry is firm and laid in
regular courses, as if done by square
and rule-John Muir in the Century.
