Fishes That Forge
Thunderbo1ts
By RENE BACHE

COMMON in the brackish waters of the
~ Chesapeake is a small fish, only about a
foot in length, which spends most OF its time
buried in the muddy bottom, with hardly
more than its eyes exposed, waiting Tor some
thing edible to come its way. On this account
it is called the "star-gazer' but until recently
nobody knew that 1t possessed an electric
battery, situated directly between its eyes.
The discovery is an interesting one, 1nasmuch
as it adds a new species to the list of animals
which make and use electricity. No one can
say with certainty what may be the purpose
for which the star-gazers little battery is
intended, though probably it is means OF
defense; but it is unquestlonable that IN other
fishes, which possess a much more formidable
equipment of the same kind, the thunderbolt
is provided by nature as weapon. The
electric catfish, for example, if kept in an
aquarium with other finny creatures, soon
kills all its companions by shocking them to
death.
The electric eel which is the most powerful
of all animals so equipped, is living storage
battery 1t reaches length of eight feet, and
weight of fifty pounds or more, its thickness
being equal to that OF mans thigh. In its
tail which comprises four-ffths of its length,
are two huge masses of elongated form, which
are composed of prism-like cells filled with
ielly-like substance. These cells, of which
there are two hundred and forty to the inch,
are nothing more nor less than miniature
Leyden Jars, the masses described, which are
separated from each other by thin partition
running lengthwise, being extremely efficient
batteries.
To make the equipment more complete,
the eel has a pair of auxiliary batteries similar
in structure, along each side at the base of the
anal fin. The whole apparatus is connected
by hundreds of nerve-brancheS with the cen
trail nervous system of the animal, which is
thereby enabled to discharge its thunderbolts
at will. These are powerful enough to paralyze
a man, and in Central America, where many
fishes of this species are found in marshes and
in shallow parts of rivers. the natives are
accustomed to reduce wild horses to subsection
by driving them into such places, where, being
attacked by the eels, they are quickly rendered
helpless.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1906-04-01
The Shocker

TN that part of the world the electric eel
L is commonly known as the treBtbldd0r, or
shocker. Its electricity-and the same re-
mark applies to other fishes thus equipped
does not differ in character from the kind with
which we are familiar, and, as has been ascer-
tanned by experiments, it possesses the same
powers The eel can be made helpless by
provoking it to repeated efforts, its batteries
thus becoming exhausted and requiring
period of repose for recharging; or it may be
deprived of its lightnings permanently by
simply cutting the nerve connections between
the batteries and its brain.
Next in power to the eel is the electric cat
fish already mentioned which is found in the
rivers all over tropical Africa, and also in the
lower Nile. 1t is three feet long when full
grown, seeks dark places having apparently
a horror of light, and is sluggish in its habits.
The natives eat it. In its case the electrical
apparatus is altogether different from that Just
described taking the form of sort of coat
which envelops the whole body of the fish.
This electric coat, if such 1t may be called is
controlled by a single nerve on each side,
proceeding from huge ganglion, which might
be termed smaller and secondary brain, near
the base of the skull By the Arabs the
catfish is known rddd, meaning thunder
In our own waters is found one of the most
remarkable of the electric fishes-the torpedo
ray, which is frequently captured by fishermen
in Buzzards Bay and Vineyard Sound 1t is
a sort of first cousin to the skate, but much
The batteries in this case are two large oval
masses, one on each side of the head COM
posed of hexagonal cells, which, as in the
electric eel, are miniature Leyden jars The
outfit, which is decidedly formidable (the fish
gives severe shocks when handled), may be
entirely disabled by cutting the big nerves
that connect the batteries with the brain.
1t is certainly remarkable. well as in
teresting, that nature should have constructed
electric storage-batteries of a high type of
efficiency ages before Franklin made his first
experiments with what used to be popularity
termed the mysterious fluid" The batteries
carried by the torpedo-ray and the electric
eel are modified muscular structure, and the
energy stored in them is supplied from the
nerve-centers of the fish. These facts have
been ascertained beyond question by scientific
study of the animals, and they certainly tend
to confirm the recently promulgated theory
of DR.. Loeb, to the effect that all nerve ener-
gy is in reality electrical. In the case of
the catfish, the apparatus, forming cleo
trio coat, is development of the glandular
system.
