FISH COME WHEN CALLED.
Curious Species Brought by q New
York Naturalist to This COun-
try from Asia.

Otto Eggeling, a naturalist of New
York, has finally succeeded in import
ing from Asia the first specimens of the
curious fish known as the anabes ever
brought to this country, says the
Times.
The special popularity of the anabes,
which inhabits the streams of interior
India, is that it travels for miles on
land in search of water when the
streams are dried up.
Lovers of aquariums have for years
endeavored to secure specimens of this
fish, but without success, as they al
ways died in transit, especially when
IN the vicinity of the Suez canal, ow-
ing to the intense heat.
Mr. Eggeling conceived the idea of
placing the fish in earthenware vessels,
containing sufficient quantity of
wafer-soaked earth, and two months
ago he cOrrespOnded with friends in
India, who secured several fine speci-
mems and shipped them. The fish ar
rived last week, and when the earthen-
ware pots were opened, the earth
therein was found perfectly dry and
the fish were in a lifeless state. Several
hours after being placed in water, how
ever, they came to life, and are now as
well as ever.
These fish are beautifully marked,
and when the light strikes them at GER
tain angles their whole bodies assume
all the colors of the rainbow. They av-
erage about two and one-half inches in
length, and, unlike other fish, breathe
through the lungs instead of the gills,
thus enabling them to live on land.
1t is said that the anabes can be
tanned as any domestic animal, and
come when called to. eating food out
OF ones hand. These fish have what
might be called "crawlers'' on the low
er part of their bodies, thus enabling
them to travel over land.

MESSAGES IN MERCHANDISE.
many instances Are on Record,
Among Them Being Some of q
TraglcaI Nature.

In regard to the story which has
been going the rounds of the English
papers lately as to a Liverpool man
finding message written upon an egg
by the packer, a widow in Manitoba,
whom he ultimately married, the Lon
don Chronicle remarks that many true
incidents of the same kind could be
related. In 1899 a message was found
in barrel of apples that had come
from New Zealand. In this message
the packer of the fruit, young wom-
an, stated that her ancestors, whose
names were given, came from Kent,
and she asked the finder to ascertain
if any of her name and family still
remained in the country AS stated in
the papers of the time, the finder was
able to give her full particulars as to
surviving relatives. But Mr.. Tew, of
Leeds, a member of a Yorkshire bank
ing family, had at one time a col
lection of these messages in mer-
chandise," some of them being very
tragical, and being a survival of the
days when peaceful traders were
caught by Algerian pirates and sold
into captivity and slavery. One such
message had been written in blood
on a coarse canvas bag that had con-
tanned gum arabic; another appeared
as sort of tattooed stain on large
cork that had fastened up a
vessel containing altar of roses.

EXHIBIT OF SCULPTURE.
Half Million Dollars Expended
on Statuary Display.
BUILDINGS HANDSOMELY DECORATED.
important Figures In History Of
Louisiana Purchase Territory and
AllegOrical Story of the Country
Shown In Beautiful Statuary.

For the sculptural ornamentation Of
the Worlds fair grounds and buildings
an appropriation of half million dol
lars has been made. The total number
OF pieces represented by this outlay
Will be over a thousand. Mr.. Karl
Francis Theodore Bitter, Chief of
Sculpture, has searched out every
sculptor Of note in the United States to
be represented in the work. The gen.
eral scheme of sculptural ornamental
ton was passed upon and approved by
an advisory committee composed of the
three foremost scuptors of this coun-
try, Augustus ST. Gaudens, Daniel
Chester French and ]. Q. A. Ward.
The scheme itself is a poetic con-
ception embracing in it's working out
the history, local color and allegory of
the Louisiana territory, dividing the
figures and groups into four classes.
The first class are the original owners
of the soil, represented by the ami
mails that roamed the prairies and for
ests of the West. Then the Indians,
or second owners, are represented,
after whom came the hardy race of
discoveries, explorers, hunters, trap
pers and pioneers who wrested the soil
from the red men. The fourth and last
owners of the land were the more
highly civilized men Of France, Spain
and the United States, the principal
actors in its development The jub-
liant character of the centennial cele-
bration has also been recognized and a
festive note has been struck in the
decoration of the cascades and stair

SHARPENING OF SABERs.
The Secretary of War Announces
That 1t Is Not q Violation of
the Laws of War.

The question has come before the
war department. whether the sharp
ening of sabers is violation of any
law, or custom of war, or of the Geneva
convention. The inquiry came from
Capt. LIE Roy Eltinge, Fifteenth caval-
~, now at Siassi, P. l., says a Wash
ington report.
That officer reports well circulated
opinion among officers that it is not
permissible to grind sabers when fight
ing a civilized enemy. The judge ad.
vocate general of the army found
nothing which brings the character Of
this inquiry within the exception Of
paragraph SAT of the army regulations,
and the secretary of war announced
that the sharpening of sabers is not a
violation of the laws of war nor of any
of the conventions which have been
accepted by the United States, either
expressly or by implication for the
government of its military forces when
engaged in actual military operations.
The Geneva convention and its modi-
fcation relate to the care and neutrali-
cation Of the sick and wounded IN time

forms being freely used. But the more
serious and significant note prevails in
the ornamentation of the approaches
to the cascades with statues represent
ing the men famous in the history of
the West
Necessarily Art hill has been chosen
as a central point for sculptural eff
fects On the topmost height of this
hill will stand the Art palace, immedi-
ately in front of it Festival hall. Much
Of the sculpture on the former will be
permanent work in marble and bronze.
The main entrance will be fianked with
two pieces in marble representing

two inches will be statues of Truth"
by Crafty, and Nature" by Philip
Martiny. A large bronze composition
representing Inspiration" by Andrew

| figures representing various art periods
as follows: Classic" Renaissance, Z"
Oriental and Gothic" will ornament
the building.

Muses.. The sculpture for the center

Liberty represented as standing with

eventually cast in enduring bronze.
