HOME AOUARIUMS.
More in Demand Than Eyer-StOCk and
Plants for Them In Great Variety.

AWe now sell more aquariums and
aquarium stock and plants than ever"
said dealer in such things The in
crease is due in large measure no doubt
to the establishment in this city of the
great public aquarium in Battery Park.
People go there and study the fishes
and get interested in them, and then they
want an aquarium OF their own. 1t is n
fascinating pursuit, the care Of an aquarium,
and one in which not only children, but
adults may easily become deeply Interested.
Dealers carry now q far greater assort-
they formerly did, including things cheaper
and costlier than ever. You can buy nova
days, for Instance, goldfish Tor as little as
five cents, or you can pay s25 for some OF
the very remarkable specimens that come
from Japan. But you don't need to pay
anything like so much as that to get spoci-
mems Of very great beauty.
Besides the many varieties Of goldfish,
there are now sold for aquarium stock
fishes of many other species, including
simple little fishes and fishes that are
curious and fishes that are beautiful A
balanced aquarium in which there are fishes
that we become individually interested
in is something very different from globe
Of goldfish.
"Fishes of the more curious and beauti-
full varieties for small aquarium stock
are imported from Japan, China, India and
Germany. WeeXport to European countries,
to be sold rs small aquarium stock there,
small alliga tors, various sorts of turtles
and various species of small native fishes !"

All Elizabeth Agitated Over the Escape
Of BischOfyschauscn's Pets.

Two large alligators escaped from the
pumping station of the Elizabeth water
works in New Jersey few days ago, and
ever since then bands OF armed men have
been patroling the banks of the Elizabeth
River hunting for them. The news of the
escape spread rapidly through Union

Religious songs are out-of-date, YET
we are forced to have them in our catalogue
because of the fashion set by The Holy

SENATOR'S ON COMMISSIONS
The Availability and Legality OF
such Appointments in Subject q
Discussion,

Washington. February 2s-The advts
ability and legality Of the appointment
OF he president, of senators and mem
hers on commissions formed the sub
iect Of considerable discussion in the
senate today. The Sundry civil bill
was under consideration and Mp Hale,
having in mind the amendment which
was adopted yesterday, author z rs the
tary commission. started the debate BIZ
calling attention to the fact that the
senate had ~reprobated the policy of
appointments Of senators on Commits
sions and on one occasion had refused,
to confirm two senators nominated By
the president for such service. Durags
the discussion it was made clear that
no reflection was intended on Mr.. Lodge
and Mr.. Turner who have been selected
as members of the Alaskan Boundary
commission. The bill was passed after
a number of amendments had been add
ed to it. among them, n appropriate
ing So, GOO, 900 for the purchase Of a post
office site in New York city.
Discussing the question of senator's
as members OF commissions. Mr.. TILL
man. maintained that the president,
perhaps could not be convinced that
appointments of this kind were i'm
proper. He referred to the peace COM
mission at Paris of 1898 and said that
senators who were members of that
commission no doubt were Influenced
in their vote on the treaty.
Mr.. Bacon. argued that it is distinct
~ and positively improper to appoint
members of either house on commits
sions and the only escape from the pro-
hibition is the technical position that
the commission is not an officer.
Mr.. Tillman offered an amendment
providing that no senator or member
shall be appointed to any such COM
mission. He said he had no purpose to
prevent any scheme Of appointment
which might be agreeable to some SEN
ators. He disclaimed the amendment
applied to such senators or members
who retire from office on March 4th
The amendment was declared out Of
order on an objection by Mr.. HcComas.
Mr.. Clay, Of Georgia, offered an
amendment a"ppropriating SIS geo for
the Improvement of the o from
Crawfish Springs, Ga, through the
Widow Davis Cross roads to Stephens
Gap, Chickamauga Park. Mr.. Allison
made a point of order against the
amendment, because it contemplated
improvements outside the park and
opened the way for the building OF
roads generally. Messrs. Foraker and
Clay called attention to the fact that
Georgia had ceded the land to the
United States and that General II. V.
Boynton and the secretary of wal had
recommended It. The point Of order
was sustained.
The senate went into executive session
at lao p. M. and spent the remainder Of
the day in discussing the Panama ca
nal treaty ad~journing shortly before {
o'clock until tomorrow.
