A Queer Fish.

In European fresh water Is to be
found very large siluroid known as
the wells. Its head is large, broad and
depressed. fully as long as the trunk
itself. while the tail is compressed
and longer than the head and trunk
together. The entire fish Is destitute
OF scales and covered with a smooth,
slippery skin like an eel. The snout
is very short. the mouth broad, with
the lower jaw longer and very extern
slble. There are six barbels around
the mouth. two Of which. situated on
each side OF the upper jaw before the
eye, are very long. extending nearly
TO the tail. The other four are much
shorter and arranged In pairs on the
chin. Owing to It's poor eyesight and
sluggish movements the wells would
be badly handicapped in the race Of
life IL not for these barbels, especially
those OF the upper jaw, which can be
moved voluntarily In every direction.
In moving leisurely about the fish useg
them constantly In feeling Its way.
and at the same time they serve to at
tract other fishes. which mistake them
for worms. When the wells perceiyes
its prey close enough to be seized II
makes dart and rarely falls to cap
ture it.-.New York Tribune.

middle OF the deserted ring and
planned how ON the morrow he would
get his money out of the bank and
build house and begin n new life as

But all the joy had gone strangely
out of his plans when he could not see

The Eastern Shore publicity committee
asserts that the merchants of Baltimore
are slow and lethargic, and are letting
the trade of that section slip from theft
grasp to Philadelphia. The committee
declares it is time the business people of
Maryland's metropolis awoke and hustled
a little. They urge the building of net
work of trolley lines on the Eastern
Shore for freight and passengers and also
want additional bay lines or better boat
service on the lines already established,
which connect shipping points with Bal
timore. Philadelphia, it is claimed, is
out-stripping Baltimore and has already
secured the major portion of the Eastern
Shore trade, while Baltimore has been
devoting all her energies to the Southern
trade, failing to take advantage of the
rich field right at her very doors.
