THE SEA BAT.
Specimen Of q Fish That 70 Both
Queer and Rare.

Specimen Of q Fish That 10 Both
Queer and Rare.
One Of the rarest specimens of the
fish kingdom known to waters con-
tiguOus to the North Carolina coast
was captured In a seine at Masonboro
sound by William Hewlett, a fisher
man, says the Wilmington Dispatch.
The fish, which was brought to the
city, is what is called ''the sea bat"
and 1t is a perfect reproduction Of a
leather wing bat on a large scale The
fish is about fifteen inches long and
about thirty inches across the back.
Strange to state, It had a thin,
threadlike tail about fifteen inches In
length, and on each side Of the rear
appendage were two perfectly formed
gloved feet, with a smaller dimension
having the exact appearance Of a
thumb with the other part Of the hand
mittened. The mouth Of the strange
specimen was about five inches across,
and on each side Of the mouth or the
underside OF the body there were FIVE
''strainers," or holes, through which
the fish Il said to rid itself Of refuse
products resulting from the forage It
picks up at the bottom Of the sea. The
top Of the fish was a dark slate color.
and the under part Of the body was
white.
One old negro fisherman more than
seventy years old declared that this
was only the second specimen Of the
sea bat he had ever seen In his long
experience as a fisherman. The specI-
men, which had a truly uncanny ap-
pearance, will probably be sent to the
state museum at Raleigh.

riIIman,s Eaverits Dish.

A year or two ago Senator TiIlman
gave to a chef In the senate restau-
rant a recipe for an excellent corned
beef hash, the fame Of which speedily
penetrated to the uttermost recesses Of
the capitol
When the head waiter wants this
hash prepared with unusual care he
orders It In this wise:
'One corned beef hash for Senator
Tillman."
One day recently during the lunch
con hour the restaurant was doing q
land Office business, and everybody
seemed to want corned beef hash.
Ten times at least did a waiter ap-
proaeh the serving table with the Or
der for Senator TfIlman's corned beef
hash.

nerves. Look heah,S he shouted to

handed Of the butler. Now, you would
think that this mental, convicted Of
error. would have wilted beneath the
magnate's frown. He did not. Hi told

this telephone was wanted by the serv-
ants, sir HI told i'm you didn't desire

James ]. Hill, magnate, looked at

twiddled his fingers for a moment on
the mahogany desk. Then, confronted
with the certainty Of servants strike,
he weakened. Put 1t In, then" he
said, and. with a return Of courage, he
growled at the butler, But II I'm ever

That the Egyptians made sea voy-
ages long before the time Of Solomon,
hitherto considered the first ocean
traveller on a large scale, Is declared
by Professor James II. Breasted to
be conclusively proved by a tablet
found by him in Palermo, Sicily. dur
ing the three years exploring trip
from pich he recently returned. Pro
fessor Breasted asserts that the in
scriptions on the tablet show that the
Egyptian king who built the first
pyramids made a voyage with forty
ships across the Mediterranean to
Lebanon TO obtain cedar for q tenn
pie. This journey, according to the
professor. was made In the thirtieth
