There is said to exist in the waters
OF Northern Queensland a fish mea-
surfing about ten inches in length and
averaging a pound and half in weight,
which possesses the remarkable pow
er Of shooting it's prey.
The rifle fish," as 1t is called, is
alleged to swim leisurely about the
stream a few inches below the sur
face, on the lookout for flies and
other insects that settle on the float
ing leaves and twigs or on the surface
Of the water plants.
When the rife Ash" gets close
enough for the purpose, II discharges
at It's victim a tiny jet or ball OF wa
Ter, which, II shot straight, knock the
prey into the stream, where It Ia I'M
stantly gathered in by the shooter.

Family Combinations.

Many ingenious complications in gen.
ealogy have been compiled. but the fol
lowing n has the merit of being def
mite as to time, place and people. 1t
concerns a family living at Faversham,
in Kent. in February, 176O. Old Ha-
wood had two daughters by his first
wife, of whom the elder was married
to John Cashick, the son, and the
younger to John Cashick, the father.
Cashick senior had a daughter by his
first wife. This daughter old HAYWOOD
married and by her had a son. which
led to the complication summed up in
the following distich. supposed to be
spoken by Cashick's second wife:
My father is my son, and 1 am my moth
er's mother.
My sister is my daughter. and I'm grand
mother to my brother.

Governor Thomas Chittenden of Yer
mont Is remembered for his great kind
ness of heart as well as for his ability
and force of character. He was the
first governor of the state and lived in
the liberal manner that beftted his
Office. His cellar, as was the custom OF
those days, was we'll stocked every fall
with provisions.
One winter night the governors rest
was broken by sounds coming from his
cellar. He left his bed quietly and.
with a candle ready to light, made his
way in the direction Of the noise. As
he reached the cellar he struck a light
and saw a man taking great pieces Of
pork out Of his meat barrel and stow
ing them away In q bag.
The governor approached the intrud-
er and in a commanding voice said:
go On, sir! Fill up that bag and be-
off. You ought to be ashamed Of your
self to disturb honest people at this
time Of night"
The thief shrank back, evidently
much frightened.

the smallest reason to suspect you of
another such act you shall be punished
for this offense as the law provides"
1t is pleasant to know that the man
came to the governor the next day to
ask for employment, in order that he
might pay for what he had taken. and
that work was found for him. which
he performed steadily and well.-

the devil.
The words were admitted, but for

volcano. Captain Barnaby exclaimed,
Lord bless me. the foremost is old
Booty. my next door neighbor!" They
then vanished in the flames, a fact of
which every one took note.
In addition to the testimony Of Cap

tvs clothes were brought into court
and identified by several witnesses as
being similar to those worn by the fore
