Friendly Fish.

A curious instance of tie familiarity Of fishes with human beings has been observed in Portland, Ore, at the Unit ted States barge office. The official boat is kept at the end of the wharf Some time ago one of the boatmen began to notice a fish about eight inches long, and resembling a carp that seemed to wish to scrape acquain. tance. The fish would come up to the top of tle water whenever the man ap- peared, and did not seem to be at all afraid. After time all the men got to know the fisE; and began to take friends to see him. At first he might not be in sight, but he ould very soon appear and frisk aronnd near the surface. Once or twice he has come so close as to rub his nase against lne boatman's hand, and the men are waiting further developments.

A Ionuue IWistcr.

A well known Liverpool solicitor was questioning a police officer recent iy as 70 the condition of horse. Do you really mean to say pressed the advocate in his best cross-examining style, "that the animal had shore solders-I mean to say sore soldiers -I mean" Still there was some thing wrong, and the solicitor paused moment to regain his oratorical bal ance, while the witness wondered du- biously whether it was a conundrum or trap. Steadying himself for a third attempt, and deliberating over every syllable, the advocate asked whether the horse really had sore shoulders, and then expanded into a smile of triumph. When the familiar tongue-twister about Peter and kts peppercorn becomes stale, suggests the Liverpool Post, here is another one: Say sore shoulders a dozen times rapidly without mistake"

First "Gamc Law"

The first game law" for the protec- eion of wild animals and birds was enacted in 106S by William the Con- oueror. This decree of the Norman king was called a forest law, but it's principal purpose was the preserva. tion of game. Forfeiture of property was made a penalty for killing or dis abling any kind of wild beast, while the slayer of stag, buck or boar. if convicted, had his eyes put out These laws, of course, applied only to the masses, since the royalty and no' bility were permitted to kill as much as they pleased. in fact. the princt pal purpose of the pioneer game law was to provide sport Tor the few. The first parliamentary game law in Eng land was passed in 1496. Game laws in America have become increasingly strict of late years, but they were adopted too late to save many species, notably the buffalo. from almost com plete extinction.
