have to be to escape being eaten by other fish for food. It is doubtful whether a shark or porpoise could catch a single one of these fast fishes, but by driving rapidly in a school some fishes are unable to escape and are killed. How small fishes dodge larger ones can be seen at the aquarium all most any day. Small minnows when attacked flee to the surface and by zgzag leaps into the air elude pursuit.
 There have been various ways sug- gested to calculate the speed of fishes It is said that the swimming power of d brook trout minnow, which can leap eight or ten feet over the waterfall, can be computed by estimating the re- sistance of the water. Others argue, however that the highest jumper is not always the fastest runner. It would be difficult to compute the speed of fishes as OrnitholOgists do the flight of birds. Until some method of com putting the exact speed of fishes shall be devised, the limit of speed of the fastest fish will remain unknown.-The American Field.

 The complaint alleges first in re- spect of MT. Clanton's individual claim that for years the defendant company has diverted appropriated ir- rigation water to his lands as his agent and authorized by him to do so and that therefore a contractual rela- ton exists between the plaintiff and defendant; that about April l. 1904, the plaintiff ordered the defendant to serve his lands with 135 inches. of water for the season of April to October l inclu- sive and for which service he paid the defendant S270; that the defenadnts dam, canals, etc, were so earelessly, negligently and unskillfully located

SPEED OF FISHES.

Some curious statements were made by an old attendant at the New York aquarium. regarding the speed with which some fishes swim, as follows:
 'There are fishes in the aquarium that can swim faster by far than the swiftest ocean greyhound. The Deutschland, for instance would be on ly a lobster in a race with the amber jack or the crevalle. The speed of fishes is simply wonderful and it shows how far inferior is human ingenuity to nature. When moving, their bodies are simply dark streak in the ocean. and it is safe to say that the Empire State Express would prove a losing rival with certain specimens of the sea less than six inches long. Some fishes can approximate seventy-five miles an hour"
 Fast-swimming fishes have cylin- drical bodies the greatest width beihS shove their bodies through the water; sharp nose opens the water in front, while behind there is no back press ure. their tails slipping through the brine with perfect ease.
 Bluefish are built somewhat this way and can maintain a speed of possibly fifty miles an hour. Schools of blue fish are very much slower, for they interfere with each other there being lazy fishes the same as lazy people. It Is a remarkable thing. however. that fishes do not jostle each other, as hu- man beings coming out of a subway exit
 The fastest fishes known are the Spanish mackarel The shad and all the herring family, too. are fast. They

YOUR BLOOD VESSELS.

Keep Them Sound, and You Have the
Elixir of Life.
Every age sees its earnest scientists
still seeking how they may discover the
elixir or the force which shall give us
the energy the vitality and the appear
ance of youth. A German who has
been struggling with the subject is con-
WINGED that the secret lies in keeping
sound our blood vessels. We are just
as old as our hearts he declares, and
this is no pretty poetical sentiment, but
a cold, scientific fact. AS years creep
on our arteries and the heart lose vigOr,
and we then begin to age" Now, we
can train this organ, it appears, to
work better than it does. Like an old
clock, if treated judiciously it will go
on as well as a new one, but it does
not do to give it any of the liberties of
the latter. We must carefully regulate
the exercise we take, the food we eat,
the mental efforts we make, the mus
cular work we do. We should neither
walk too much nor too little. We
should get as much air as possible and
never oversleep. We should never cod
die. still less should we be rash about
colds, fatigue, and so on. - London
