CAR WILL NOT SUE FOR PEACE.

The news comes from London that

the revival of the rumors of media

Gently announced in the most positive
terms that he would not permit peace
negotiations even. should Port Arthur
Fall and General Kuropatkin be driven
back to Hardin.
This fact, well understood in Off
cial circles, has prevented the British
government from taking any steps in
the direction of mediation. 1t is known
in London that Germany understood
this attitude of the Emperor as well
as Great Britain and other powers.
Therefore the reports from Paris that
Emperor William is prepared to sug-
gest peace is dismissed as groundless,
for the present at least.

MAKEUP OF THE SKATE.
As Described, He Must Be a Peculiar
Denizen of the Deep.

A breezy writer on natural history
says of the skate: HE is a bottom
fish and fat like founder. He has a
triangular body, the apex of which
forms the snout; opposite the snout
are his tail and few extra pieces Of
his overcoat, which kind nature has
tagged on to him in case he gets corn
and has to be mended. His tail is
embellished with a few splnes-this
| know for a fact. He has a couple
of eyes, little way back of his snout,
and right back of these are a couple
Of holes that extend completely
through him. These holes connect with
his lungs or whatever he uses to
breathe with and have an uncomfort-
able way of looking at you at the same
time as his eyes. He has a mouth,
too, but it is on the underside of him
and convenient for business. 1t is
funny thing, with spines on the lips,
and when you pull the lower jaw the
upper jaw moves with it-a sort OF
automatic trap"
