VITALITY OF FISH.
The Transportation of Live Fish lp s
 Frozen Condition.

Frozen Condition.
 Fishes belong to the class of animals that have variable body temperature. depending on the temperature of their environment. says Scientific American In extreme cold they assume rigid condition. in which all of the vital functions are suspended, while life still remains present During several months of each year some of the great rivers of Siberia are frozen solid to the bottom. but many of the fishes impris- oned in the ice retain their vitality and resume their active life when the ice melts in the spring.
 This fact has suggested experiments in the freezing of live fish for transpor- tation. which are discussed In the Fischerei Zeitung. Many years ngo the celebrated physicist Pictet of Geneva put fresh water fishes into tub Of water, which he kept liquid at the freezing point for twenty-four hours and then allowed 10 freeze slowly into a solid block of ice. which afterwuri was cooled gradually to = 20 degrees c. C 4 degrees Fl. When the ice wns melted, n month or even two months afterward. the fishes began to swim as brislSly as they did before freezing and showed no symptoms of III health.
 Similar experiments have recently been made in France. The fishes arc placed in water which Is kept near the freezing point for few hours. then at the freezing point for fifteen to eight cen hours, and finally frozen by inn mersing the vessel into freezing mix ture, producing a cake of ice few inches thick. in which the frozen fishes are embedded, This cake is wrapped in cloth and surrounded with heat in- sulating packing to prevent melting during transportation. It is necessary to thaw the ice very slowly and to keep the water near the freezing point for several hours, in order to preserve the life of the fishes Even those which do not survive are in perfect state Of preservation.

 A new type of sanitary drinking fountain has been erected in Lafayette square, Washington. The fountain has large basin Into which the over flow from the nozzle cups" discharges The nozzle cups are at the outer ends of flexible tubes whose Inner ends con- meet with the water supply. and the water flows up freely through an open ing in the center of domellke plate rising almost to the top of the cup. 70 the user can drink without tcuchinE the metallic parts of the cup, out of which the water constantly flows in cleansing stream. The cups are shackled by Individual chains to an upper portion of the foundation. s0 they cannot fall outside the basin when released by the drinker. Thus the cups when not In use discharge Into the basin instead of on the ground sur rounding the fountain.
