ARGENTINA WANTS SETTLERS,
Also Investors to Develop the Mining
Country-Boers Not Satisfied There.

BUKNos AYREs. April 20.-A colony called
"Sarmiento" has been started on the slopes
Of the Andes in Patagonia for the benefit
of discontinued Beers. As matter OF
fact, many os'those who came were rebel
Africanders from Cape Colony. Some OF
them have already returned to Buenos
Ayres disguised with their new quarters.
Possibly they may be ne'er-do-wells, who
would have been disconnected and useless
anywhere, but it must be admitted that the
general conditions of that faraway terri
tory, separated from the sea by $50 miles
Of sandy desert, are not calculated to en-
courage any but the hardest pioneer.
The general price OF land there is about
IS 600 paper, or say f435, the square league
of 5000 acres-about Is. SID. per acre.
Special lots on rivers might cost up to
fsOO q square league. but at E435 hun
dreds of leagues might be bought to-day
from men who purchased them from the
and have never seen them. Speaking OF
the price OF Patagonian land. it should
be noted that at the recent sales OF Argen-
tina pastures on the shores of the Strait
of Magellan, as much as El8,000 per square
league was paid, though In very exceptional
instances.
Chile is to sell large tracts next July and
the sauatters are prepared to pay very high
prices for the lands they have occupied at
nominal rent for the last twenty years,
Australians are constantly arriving here
is very favorable to Argentina, as it well
NAV be after their experience in their
own drought ridden continent.
Citizens Of the United States are very
scarce here. and some Of those who do come
are those whom the States may well let
TO- What will especially attract the best
Class Of emigrants is the mineral wealth
of the upper provinces. Argentina wants
them badly to develop the budding industry,
and there is little doubt that IN the near
future Northern capitalists Will hnd here
a better investment for their dollars than
is to be found in any other part Of the
QlOha

QUEER BIG FISH FOUND.
Strange Catch Discovered in = Pound Net
Near EastOn. Md.

Near Easton. Md.
EAsroN, Md, May 100. 9. Gallup Of
Oxford caught In one Of his pound nets
in the Tredavon River one Of the most
notwithstanding fishes that have ever been
seen in these waters. 1t was about three
feet long, with a mouth very large and
shaped much like a dowdy. Its mouth
was large enough to hold peck Of potatoes
and contained several rows OF teeth. About
eighteen inches down its throat were
grinders.
About twenty inches from it's mouth there
was small canal connecting the throat and
stomach. This seemed to be about two inches
in diameter, and when expanded reached
Ave inches in diameter.
Pieces of ice were put into it's mouth
and they would drop through into the
stomach. On the under side Of the fish
about the centre were two attachments,
similar to fms, which reeembled hands,
with five separate bones like fingers con-
nected with webs. On each side the fish
had a large flap for swimming.
Just over the top Of the mouth II had two
pieces Of bone about the size of toothpick
and about four inches long. They could
be twisted around with ease. The fish
weighed forty pounds.
The only fish to which 1t has any resem-
blance, say old fishermen. is the angler, or
frog fish. The fish is the first Of the kind ever
seen around here Mr.. Gallup shipped il
to Baltimore In the hopes of finding some
one to give 1t name.

LABOR MAN AGAINST STRIKES
Grand Master HawIey Of the Swttchmen
Says They Are Harmful.

INDIANAPOLIS, May 2o.--At the national
convention Of the Switchmen's Union Of
North America, to-day, Grand Master
Hawley made an exhaustive report OF the
years work and took strong grounds
against the strike as means OF set
Ting labor troubles. He said that moth
ing can ever be gained by the
precipitate ordering OF strikes. while
much would be lost by such a
policy and that the only safe course is to
be fair and deliberate in settling labor
disputes.
Referring to the work Of organizatio ion,
he reviewed the troubles that had dis
turbed the organization and said that all
had been settled easily and satisfactorily
by pursuing policy of conservatism which
was based on the theory that the int erests
OF employees and employer are identical.

THE GREATER SCHENECTADY.
A New Charter which Gives II the Gov
eminent OF q Second Class City.

SCHENECTADY, May ALPHABETICALLY, an
other second-class city was created in this
State when Gov. Odell recently signed the
new charter for Schenectady. The town
now has a population Of over $1,000, but it
cannot be raised officially to the second
class until the next census Is taken
In the meantime, however. it will have
practically the same form OF government
as Rochester. Syracuse, Utica, Albany and
Troy, the cities Of the second class. The
new charter is almost an exact reproduction
Of the uniform charters under which they
ments are to be under the jurisdiction Of
commissioner of safety, and the water
system, electric lights, sewers, streets,
bridges, &c, under the control OF the Com
missioner Of Public Works. The Mayor, who
a n salary a Of s. 900. One new elective office
is created, that of Comptroller, at sl75o
annually. Much Of the power now vested
in the Common Council will be transferred
to the Board OF Estimate and Apportion-
ment. ,s
the Aldermen made hard fight to retain
some sort of a grasp on the government:
They succeeded in keeping the power OF
appointment. which in second-olass cities
is vested in the Mayor. They will also get
a se sais' Without Day. Their retention Of the
appointive power gives them control OF
tie patronage, but they will lose all grasp on
the actual expenditure of the city's funds:
