WHY FISHES CHANGE COLOR.
Results of Observations Made in the
New York Aquarium.
From the Century.


The coIors shown on many we'll known
colored plates Of West Indian fishes pub
lished In standard works on ichthyology
are, We find. not those OF normal condi-
tons. but rather those Of dying. dead
and rapidly fading fishes. Experiments
In the New York aquarium have shown
that such colors are merely the vestiges
Of the last convulsive color excitements
Of the specimens used This Is the ex-
PLANTATION of the rapid changes for which
the dying dolphin is celebrated. Even
IL painted from newly caught wild fishes
held in a portable aquarium, as some of
colors only, and in every case represent
merely one of several possible phases Of
celebration.
In fact. 1t has been possible to show
by experiments with living fishes in the
aquarium Just which paintings and photo
graphs reproduced in standard works
were made from dead specimens and
which were not.
1t is we'll known that northern sea
fishes habitually frequenting green or
yellow seaweed acquire to some extent
the general color tone Of their habitat
and that trout from dark water are dark
colored, while those inhabiting waters
where there Is sandy or gravelly bottom
are light colored. Such conditions have
long been appreciated at the aquarium.
where fishes kept in tanks lined with
white tiles habitually wear their lighter
colors. only an occasional blind fish re-
naming unchanged. The pale, colorless

the aquarium These fishes. although with
eyes that are virtually useless. are still
able to distinguish light from darkness

One of the most interesting expositions

There are but few of them left, though
at one time they doubtless held a great
part OF Japan. 1t is thought that they
will soon be extinct. 1t will be noticed
that their faces bear but little resem-
blance to those of the Japanese. The
Anus are sometimes compared to the
American Indians. both having held full
sway over a country for centuries. only
to be driven into q small part of their
former territory by a stronger and pro-
gressive race. The stronger and victor

pressive and murderous in spirit and &C

red man here. Strange to say, the

rF there is any one characteristic
which is common to all mankind IT
would seem to be curiosity. Let the
III hurried hoofbeats of a horse reach
the ears of strolling citizens. and
the gong on the ambulance or patrol
wagon sound and they are at once agog
TO know just what the trouble is. who is
hurt. how il happened, or who is being
pinched," and for what. And causing
probably even more excitement than
either of these two, and having many
additional features. such as a desire to
give advice. etc, is the street car tie-up.

bows into the party in front in vain
eldeavor to get to the scene of the
trouble. The greater portion OF the
crowd give the motorman and conductor
advice as TO how to remedy the damage.
IL the accident TO the car is sufficiently
complicated TO neceSsitate calling up
headquarters TO summon the emergency
wagon the crowd assumes even larger
proportions as the clatter OF hoofS or the
ringing Of the automobile gong announces
the approach of that vehicle. And until
the smallest detail has been repaired and
not only the damaged car, but all those
held by reason of the delay, have started
upon their downward or upward journey
the crowd remains, held by that potent
power which will make people of all
classes mingle good naturally together

Probably the reason why street car
tie-up holds more destinations for the
average person than the sight Of the am
bulance or patrol wagon is because there
is such a wide variety of things which
can happen to a car. An arrest, in most
cases. is always the same and is general
ly accompanied by a feeling of pity or
disgust. The ambulance pulling up quick
ly before some drug store rouses pity. as
much as curiosity. and sometimes touch
of awe. All these unpleasant sentiments,
as a rule, have no place in the street car
tie-up- Nobody is hurt as a general
thing. and the only real danger is the
possibility of not being able to get to a
certain point at a given time, which
lends spice of uncertainty to the situa-
ton, that is. II 1t does not result in down.
right annoyance
speaking. doing considerab BILE thinking at
about the same time that the public is
looking on and offering advice to the mo-
torman and conductor. Tie-ups to a
siderable money, even IL the enforced
idleness of the cars is for no longer q
period than four or five minutes. Then
there is the Inconvenience caused the pa
irons. which situation is one that looms
large upon the horizon of the official
whose duty it is to supervise such things.
For continued Inconvenience to street
car patrons is usually followed by con-
tinued string of letters to the street car
company in question, which combina ton
OF affairs IS liable to result in any one
of numerous complications. from firing
the motorman or conductor of the I'M
fortunate car down, or UP, to footing a
large-sized bill for repairs, not to men
ton the loss due to the temporary sus-
pension of the car service.
The street car tie-up Is something
which every car company has to cope
with. and the Washington companies
have special forces whose whole duty it
Is to handle such situations as may
arise throughout the day. Each com
pany has two emergency wagons. or
rather. one has wagons and the other
automobiles. These vehicles are es-
pecially made for the work they are in
