ESKIMO TO
 BE AN USHER

New York, Nov. 6.-Mene, an Es- kimo after many trials and tribula- tions in the metropolis, has got JoD. He is to be an usher at the Madison Square theater when that playhouse onens it's doors tonight for the first performance of The Coming of Mrs. Patrick" Mene, who is one of a very few members of his race who have long survived the effects of this cil- mate, has the honor of being the only Eskimo theatrical usher in the world. He was one of the five Eskimos that Peary brought from the arctic reSlon nine years ago The other four speed ily succumbed to the ravages Of tub erculosis, but Mene is apparently per fectly we'll and so far Americanized that he can drive an automobile. When the government, after his stay at the Museum of Natural History, where he was an interesting study for scientists, wished to send Mene home to his igloo and bulbber, he at once and positively declined to go. He informed the government officials that he had become civilized and no longer cherished an ambition to hunt seals or search for the north pole. For some time he has lived and as- sociated with actors, and tonight will enter upon his own professional ca- reer as an usher.

Charles F. Johnson found another fish
of the same species. weighing about
half pound, and took il to Prof, Lo-
per at the Wesleyan mGseum.
The professor had some trouble clas-
styling the FISH, but at last placed it.
The fish belonged e a species com
mon in this region several hundred
years ago, but now found only in GER

fish was preserved and is now at the
college museum.
Among the theories advanced as to
the presence of this almost extinct fish
