of time, in hours and minutes,
claimed respectively by darkness
and daylight, will begin to show a
decided preference for the latter.

Delivered His Message Literally.
Senator Hoar tells of profane
Washington lawyer who, having a
case pending, told his Office boy to
go over to the supreme court and see
what the - they are doing. When
the boy arrived an important case
was being heard, the bar and court
being crowded with listeners. Seeing
the boys inquiring look, the chief JUS
tice interrupted the remarks of Mr..
Choate, one Of the counsel, and said
to the lad: What do you want, my
boy?" "Mr. Blank told me to come
over here and see what In - you
was up to-" was the reply.

August Abel, one of the Rock Island
arsenal workmen who was so badly in
jured Friday by the falling of an eleya-
tor in the gun carriage factory, died al
z O'Clock Saturday evening at Mercy
hospital Davenport, where he was
taken earlier in the day from his
home 1880 West Seventh street. This
makes the second fatality resulting
from the same accident, as Edward
O'Toole expired some thirty minutes
afterwards.
Mr.. Abel. who was but % years Of
age, was injured in a very peculiar
manner. He was not riding in the ele-
vator at the time Of the accident. but
was at work upon the third floor. When
the elevator cable snapped one end
swung around in such a manner as to
strike the young man and throw him
into the elevator shaft. He fell down
the shaft and struck upon the massive
beam at the top Of the elevator This
he was thrown across and remained
there until removed By tender hands
An iron truck was also thrown down
the shaft by the swiftly flying piece of
broken cable, and in its descent this
also struck the unfortunate young man.
His injuries were Of a most shocking
nature, and al no time was there any
hope for his ultimate recovery. He
made his home with his mother

How Fish Eat.

The curious ways in which fishes
eat form a study. Some fishes have
teeth. and some have none at all. In
some the teeth are found upon the
tongue. in some In the throat, and in
some in the stomach. Some draw in
their food by suction; the sturgeon is
one OF this class. The iellyflsh absorbs
its food by wrapping its body around
the prey 1t covets. The startish fas-
tens Itself to its victim, turns its stom-
ach wrong side out and engulfs its
dinner without the formality of swal-
lowing It through a mouth first, much
less asking permission.
Then there is peculiar little crab
the horseshoe crab-which chews
up Its food with It's legs or claws be-
fore II passes the morsels over TO its
mouth, while other crabs and Holsters
masticate their food with their jaws,
and afterward complete the work
with an extra set Ct teeth which
they find conveniently located in their
stomachs.
So there are all sorts OF methods for
those regularly toothless, and the
fishes which have teeth show almost
as great diversity in the number.
style and arrangement of them. The
ray or skate has mouth set trans,
yersely across its head.
