George Il. Angel.

The funeral of George T. Angel,
president and founder Of the Massa-
chusetts Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to animals, was held at the
Second Church, Boston, on Saturday,
March 20. Rev. Thomas Van Ness,
pastor Of the church, ot1iciated and
was assisted by Dr. S. H. Robin, pas
tor of the Second Universalist Church
who read the Scriptures. Mr.. Van
Ness paid high tribute to Mr.. Angell's
work, considering that his most not
able achievement was introducing in
to Christianity that element which
recognizes and protects all living
things. Mr.. Angel proved himself to
be an exceptional man. His strong
character was shown by his absolute
honesty, sincerity, and perseverance.
In the face of numerous obstacles, in
difference and cruelty, he had wrought
reform and accomplished what he had
started out to do. The influence Of
such a good and aggressive life was
bound to remain fresh and lasting. A
striking feature of the funeral process
sion for the first half mile of it's jour-
ney from Copley Square to Mount Au-
burn was the escort of thirty-eigh ht
work-horSes. The ring Of their shoes
on the asphalt pavement sounded an
unusual requiem. 1t was a remark
able demonstration which attracted
thousands of spectators. 1t was the
first time in the history of Boston
that herd Of horses figured as mourn
ers. They were splendid specimens
of the horses that labor. They wore
nothing but brides to which we're
fastened black rosettes. Each horse
was led by a groom. Their hoofs
we're polished and their coats shone.
During the services CopleysSquare
was thronged. From 10 a. m. until
l p. m. The body Of Mr. Angel lay in
state in the church where it was
viewed by hundreds from all walks OF
life.-The Christian Register.

FISH THAT CAV WALK.
Climbing Perch Travel Over Land
from Water to Water.

Climbing Perch Travel Over Land
from Water to Water.
It may seem absurd to speak OF
fishes as walking. The flying fish Is
well known, but It's flight looks much
Ike swimming in the air. We natural
ly think Of fishes. as living always In
tie water, as being incapable, in fact,
of living anywhere else, Pearson's
Weekly says. But nature maintains
no hard-and-fast lines Of distinction
| between animal life whichs belongs to
the land and that WHICH belongs to
the water. If we can believe the &C
counts of naturalists, there are fishes
that traverse dry land.
1t is reported that DR.. Francis Day
of India has collected data of several
Instances of the migration Of fishes
by land from one piece Of water to
| another.
A party of English officers were
upon one occasion encamped in a GER
tain part of India when their atten-
ton was attracted by a rustling sound
in the grass and leaves. Investiga-
| ton showed it to be caused by myriads
|! Of little fishes that were passing SLOW
ly on. There were hundreds of them
moving by using their side and small
fms as feet, now upright, now falling
| down, squirming, bending, rolling over,
| regaining their finny feet and again
| passing on.
These fishes were the famous climb
ig perch and they were passing over
| the country to avoid a drought. When
the stream in which they had been
spending the season dries up they
| scale the banks and, directed by some
marvellous instinct, crawl to another.

A Curious Trail.

All sorts of devices have been used
to mark a line of march. A unique
method of blazing the trail" is still
to be seen in Africa, and a recent pub
LEGATION prints a picture Of one of these
memorials of the dervish raid. Arthur
J. Hayes mentions the subject in his
Source of the Blue Mile"
In 1889, after a fierce battle with the
Abyssinians, the dervishes pursued
their sfoes as far as the lake district.
The Mahdi's men had small knowledge
of geography and little of Topographic
cal intelligence, So the advance party.
in order to mark, the route for those
who came after, and also to guide the
force on their return journey, twisted
the saplings along the way into living
knots.
The war ended, but the tied-up trees
grew and fourished, but uncouthly
twisted and distorted, and are now
the only reminders of that uprising OF
the dervishes.

After reaching the age Of forty the
human system gradually declines. The
accumulated poisons in the blood cause
rheumatic pains in the joints, muscles
and back. These warnings should be
promptly relieved and serious illness
avoided by using the following pre-.

suits even after the first few doses and
it will eventually restore physical

Wilson Vance's novel of a Crom-
wellian soldier in old Virginia en-
| titled big John Baldeth" is to be
| brought out in England by the noted
| Bristol publisher who introduced Hugh
Conway, Jerome K. Jerome, Anthony
| Hope and other novelists of note.
| Wilson Vance is the father of Louis
| Joseph Vance, author Of "The Brass
Bowl"
There will be given to the world
| this autumn two books about the late
Lord Kelvin, one of the really great
men of science Of the nineteenth CEN
tury. One is the formal biography by
Professor Silvanus Thompson and the
other Is a volume of personal reminis-
| cences written by his sister, Mrs. King
who has lately followed her brother
into the other world.
Mrs. Velma Swansten Howard has
| returned to New York from a visit
to the celebrated Swedish author, Miss
Selma Lagerlof. A new edition OF
/ MIS-. IlUWd1uo VI VI AAo
Lagerlof's Christ Legends" has just
been issued. The book Is having a
success as literature aside from its
| religious significance. Many of the
| legends it contains are not to be found
in the Bible and have a distinct
quaintness and charm of their own.
Harry Delacombe, the author of the
Boys Book of Airships," has been in
| the British army and became much
| interested in the subject on which
he writes. He is now a specialist in
it and has a personal acquaintance
| with most of the leading inventors.
| He has withheld his forthcoming book
from the press as long as possible in
order to get in the very latest informa-
tion, and it includes accounts of the
| Zeppelin dirigible and the Wright,
Curtiss, Farman, Bleriot, Antoinette
and other aeroplanes as they appeared
at the international contests at Reims.
To see ourselves as others see us
Is always an interesting occupation,
and nothing can be more interesting
to an American than to know why he
is unlike the English and thu causes
that have made him the energetic,
| enterprising, active man that he is. In
A. Maurice Lows forthcoming book,
1.-The American People," these things
are explained and the working of the
| American mind is carefully analysed.
To be told that American character
| has been Influenced by the Indian or
| that one reason why we are different
from Europeans is because of u
cold waves" is interesting.
Cicely Hamilton, the author of Mar
rage as a Trade" frankly admits that
| she speaks as a spinster. Her claim
is that woman's one trade or means
of livelihood has been to please man,
to marry him if possible, and to do the
work that he Judges too tiresome or
uninteresting to do for himself. The
result has been not only that her
profession of matrimony has been
~overcrowded but also that the low
grade of woman's wages is due to her
lack CT interest in her work and re-
gard for it on account of her belief
that her only respectable career was
the marrying of some good man, or in
case that failed in becoming the wife
of an unworthy man. Miss Hamilton
is an English oma and the author
of Diana of Dobson's."
