SPEED OF FISHES.
Tarpon, Shark and Mackerel Are the
Swiftest of Swimmers.

Tarpon, Shark and Mackerel Are the
Swiftest of Swimmers.
When scientists desire to find out
how fast a certain bird flies, it is nee
essary only to set up poles and note
by stop watches the time the bird re-
uuires to cross the interval The speed
of fishes is more difficult to ascertain.
Nevertheless, as the Saturday Even
ing Post explains, estimates have been
made showing that the mackerel, con-
sidering its handicap in size, comes
close to being the champion racer.
Unquestionably the mackerel travels
sometimes as fast as an express train
at high speed-say, at the rate of sixty
or possibly seventy miles an hour.
Other things being equal. the larger
the fish the faster it swims, just as the
huge steamboat is able to travel at a
speed much greater than the little har-
Dor tug.
Undoubtedly the energy employed
by o fish of great size, such as thirty
foot shark, when travelling at its best
gait is something tremendous. An or
binary tug, which represents a maxi
mum of energy In minimum of bulk,
utilities about 200 horsepower OF
course 1t is only a guess, but it would
not seem to be over the mark to sup
pose that seventy foot whale makes
use of 500 horsepower when it propels
its huge bulk through the water at a
rate Of thirty miles an hour.
A whale, which is a mammal and not
a fish, might be compared to freight
train If the shark Is cannon ball ex-
press, but it can beat the fastest ocean
greyhound" in a speed contest.
The tarpon is probably faster than
the shark 1t is believed that tarpon
In hurry can travel at the rate of
eighty miles an hour.

Arcadia, Which Left Manistee
On April IL with Hardwood
Cargo, The Victim.
Storm of the Fourteenth
Thought to Have Wrecked
Her-Women Aboard

Manistee, Mich, April %
The wooden lumber barge,
Arcadia which left this port
April IL for Two Rivers with
a cargo Of hardwood has un-
doubleday been lost in Lake
Michigan with her captain
and owner Harry May and
about a dozen others. Ma
rine men here have given her
up as lost and would not be
surprised to hear that her
wreck was caused by a boiler
explosion. Some hold the
Theory that she went down
as a result of the big storm of
April IA.
The known list of persons
aboard the Arcadia was:
Captain Harry May.
Mrs. Harry May.
Young woman cook, name
unknown here.
Otto Chavalia, sailor.
Harry Powers, sailor Ma
nistee.
There we're about eight
more members Of the crew.
The cargo of the Arcadia
was shipped by the State Lbr.
Company of this city to the
Hamilton Manufacturing Co.,
of Two Rivers. The boat has
not been heard from definite
ly since leaving Manistee.
Wreckage has been found
along the Deacn from rent
water north to Little Point Au
Sable and part of it has been
identified as the cargo of the
lost craft. Portions of her
cabins and bulwarks have also
been found on the beach near
Pentwater.
The Arcadia was a wooden
steamer 10 feet in length, &c
feet beam and nine feet draft,
registering go tons and was
built in Milwaukee in 1888.

FALSE ALARM OF FIRE.
A Peril Always to Be Met Promptly on
Board Ship.

A Peril Always to Be Met Promptly on
Board Ship.
1t was on board the Northern Light,
says Captain Osbon in "A Sailor Of
Fortune that q false alar-I of fire
was sounded and disaster prevented
only by prompt action. A passenger
looking down through the boiler hatch,
saw the red painted boiler fronts and
seeing the fiamelike color amid cloud
of steam, shouted, Fire" Immedi-
ately the whole vessel was in an up
roar, and a dangerous panic was i'm.
minent. I was one of the underofi-
GERS.
The climax came when the quarter
master saw minister Of the gospel on
the rail trying to lower the bow of one
of the ships boats. l ran to him and
ordered him to come down on deck.
The minister paid no attention, and
seized his coat tail to drag him down
by force.
Perhaps it was an old coat, for the
seams parted, and a second later I had
the ministerial coat tail in my hands.
He came down then. He was angry
and was likewise a spectacle to look
upon.
He started to call an Indignation
meeting, but most of the passengers
had recovered from their fright by this
time and were inclined to be merry at
the reverend gentleman's expense.
He went raging to the captain, who
summoned me to appear. came, still
carrying the coat tail in my hand.
"Mr. Osbon," he said, what are your
orders in case Of a false alarm Of
firew
'My orders" I said, "are to stop it
by any means necessary. I may knock
a man down, throttle him Or split him
wide Open"
The captain turned to the irate min
lister.
"Those are Mr.. Osbon's orders" he
said. "You are fortunate that it was
only your coat that was split OPEN"
The danger from the false alarm of
fire, on shipboard is second only to
the real thing and Is always peril to
be met promptly.

Fooled Old JoWett.

Once when Professor Jowett was
visiting his friend and pupil, Pro
fessor Sellar, he declared that he
never gave to beggars. Mrs. Sellar
was an adept in "mystifcations," an
accomplishment popular in Scotch
society since Sir Walter SCOTS
time. She disguised herself as a
poor highland woman and waylaid
her husband and Jowett at cross
road, begging approximately and
telling her tale of woe SO piteously
that Jowett at last said: "Poor
thing! She seems very miserable;
Give her half crown" Sellar said
he had no money with him, and be-
fore the aims were forthcoming the
secret was triumphantly unveiled.

"It was an inspiration to see all those

pecially they seemed to throw their
whole souls into the hymn:
cam I soldier Of the cross,

Even DR.. X, the president Of the col

of inspiration "Dr x. sang that?''
broke in an incredulous listener Does
DR.. x. believe that?'' "Oh. no." re-
piled Bishop Brooks quickly. HE was

May Never go out Again if
Legislature Does Not
Aid.
Prospective Settlers Or Buy
ers Crowd to see Exhibit
From the North.

The widely known exhibit
car containing products OF
northern Wisconsin and call
ed "GrassIand" has returned
to Milwaukee and may re
main a few days. The future
of the car is uncertain just
now, as it has travelled about
the country for several sea-
sons at the expense OF the
North Wisconsin Farmers
association which cannot we'll
afford longer to keep it in
motion. The future depends
largely upon the Legislature
before which bills are pend
ing for the assistance of the
society and it's projects.
The car still looks attrac-
tive in spite of the many
miles it has travelled and the
crowds that have passed
through it. With Grassland
is Secretary Fairall, of the
North Wisconsin Farmers
association, a society that
keeps this novel agricultural
exhibit moving.
Fifteen extreme northern
counties of the state are back
of the enterprise. In brief
it is a peoples movement, the
expenses of its immigration
work being betrayed by a
small membership fee from
several thousand farmers and
business men. by appropria-
tions from county boards of
supervisors and from contri-
buttons from the business in
terests of Milwaukee and
other cities of the state that
desire. to see north Wisconsin
settled.
The car left it's home coun-
ties on October 1, on it's third
annual tour. The territory
covered has been southeast
ern and southern Wisconsin
and northern Illinois.
At Chicago $4,000 and at
Rockford 10000 saw the
grains. The managers esti-
mate that 100000 persons
went through the doors dur
ing this season, and that 50,-
900 looked at the display on
the outside and studied the
map of northern Wisconsin,
besides the hundreds of thou
sands who saw the car from a
distance.
From the cars clog book
the following interesting facts
are CLEANED as to cities, towns
and villages visited, together
with attendance, which has
exceeded 100000 people dur
ing the season. Following
are the visits made in Wiscon-
