A male fish which matches the young

familias II is found III the Lake
of Tiberias. Palestine Strange TO
say, this industrious fish matches its
young IN its mouth. When the female
has spawned IN the sand. the male
approaches aud draws the eggs into
his gills. where they remain until
Matched. when they struggle out OF
their confinement into the parents
mouth As many as 200 perfect
young are sometimes found In the
mouth Of an adult male. How the
fish manages to feed itself without
swallowing the young is a mystery
The grown fish Is about seven inches
long and one and three-quarters wide
| Its back is olive green. shot with
blue, and the belly is silver white,
marked with green and blue. Near
ancient Capernaum some hot springs
form a small stream which runs Into
the lake. and it is In these warn
waters that the chromis abounds.

POWDER AND GUNS.
gvidenee That They Were Used Long
Before the Christian Era.

Evidence That They Wore Used Long
Before the Christian Era.
There Is abundant evidence that the
origin Of gunpowdsr and artillery
goes far back In the dim ages OF the
past
The Hindoo code compiled long be-
fore the Christian era. prohibited the
making of war with cannon and
guns or any kind Of firearms. Quintus
Curtius informs US that Alexander
the Great met with Ore weapons In
Asia. and Philostratus says that Alex
anders conquests were arrested by
the use Of gunpowder. II Is also
written that those wise men who lived
In the cities Of the Gauges over
threw their enemies with tempests
and thunderbolts shot from the

1t appears to have been generally
known throughout civilized Europe as
early as 1900. and soon thereafter II
made its way into England where II
