LANGUAGE AsCRIBED TO FISH
Men of the Sea Have Their Own Idea
Of Articulation Peculiar to
Their Catch.

There is a belief among fishermen
that a herring, when caught, articu-
lates a sound similar to the word
"cheese." This sound is caused by
an escape of air from the air bladder,
or movement of the gills. Fisher
men, indeed, frequently state that the
herrings "sneeze," just as Aristotle
once said that gurnards "grunt."
The gurnard was known to the
Greeks as "lyros" and "coccyx," APP
parently from the noise it was said to
make.
Many fish have various forms of
utterance attributed to them. On the
Norfolk Breads, one often hears it
said that an old jack pike has bark
ed like dog, and the same is said
Of the conger eel.
Red-fnned herrings, called "loaders'
or "kings and queens" are sometimes
caught; they are regarded as an omen
of successful fishing. One Of them is
then taken out of the nets very care
fully, prevented from touching any
thing made of wood, and passed round
the scudding poles as many times as
the fishermen desire to get lasts Of
herrings at the new haul.

A Napoleon Telegraph.

Few Telegraph letters in the hand OF
the great Napoleon are outside the
French national archives. In the IA
nous Morrison collection, the second
portion Of which is being offered at
Sotheby's, London. appeared that mis-
sive which the first consul wrote to the
prince who afterwards became Louis
XVIII. In this he sternly advises him
to remain In sweet and tranquil exile,
for return to France would mean a
trudge over 100000 corpses ("il vous
faudrait marcher sur 100000 cadav-
res"). For this vehement warning Mr..
F. Sabin paid E435, and at a convenient
and authorized interval the letter will
go to New York. A descendant Of Jo-
seph Bonaparte, at present incognito
in London, inspected the letter and
was represented in the earlier stages
of the bidding. Another letter by Ma
poleon addressed to Josephine, saying
that the sun itself may grow cold be-
fore he forgets her, reached $780,

HOW OLD is LONDON TOWN.
Notwithstanding Antiquity Of Brltlsh
Metropolis Many Great Build
Inqs Are Modern.

1t Is surprising, when we think Of
the age Of London, and think of the
tower which William the ConQueror
built; of the ancient abbey: of the Nor
man church; of st. Bartholomew, how
many Of London's most prominent
buildings are less than hundred years
old, and how many of them are quite
recent structures, observes a writer
in London Tit-Bits.
OF all the buildings which flank
Whitehall only the Horse Guards, the
Banquet hall and the Old Admiralty
existed hundred years ago. The gov
eminent offices are all new.
Within living memory the house Of
parliament, the Thames embankment
and all It's flanking buildings, St.
Thomas hospital, the National gallery,
South Kensington museum, the Tate
gallery, the law courts, all the big no.
tells and even the present Mansion
house have been built, whilst nearly
all the banks and great piles Of COM
mercial offices in the city are new,
although the thoroughfares in which
they stand are very old.
A hundred years ago there was no
High Holborn, no Shaftesbury avenue,
no Charing Cross road, no Regent
street-or, at most, 1t was just in the
making-and no Trafalgar square.
Kingsway and Aldwych are streets Of
yesterday.
Moreover, such great centers of pop
ulation as Putney and Islington and
Hampstead and Edmonton were little
outlying villages quite disconnected
with London, whilst West Ham and
Willesden had no existence except as
names, and places like Shepherds
Bush and Norwood Scrubs might
have been in the backwoods Of Aus
tralia or Canada for all the impor-
lance they represented. A century
ago, too, the railroad stations which
number about 1000 had no existence
whatever.

How the Dutch Lost. New York.

How the Dutch Lost. New York.
The frst step toward making New
York an English colony was taken 25O
years ago, when Charles II granted to
his brother, the duke of York, a large
territory In America, to be called, in
honor OF the proprietor, New York.
This included the Dutch settlement of
New Amsterdam and the "colonie" of
New Netherland, with Col. Richard
NicOlls In command, to be deputy gov
ernor.
The Dutch settlers decided that it
was useless to argue the case with the
English invaders, "who were six times
their NUMBER" and in the autumn of
1864 Fort Amsterdam and Fort Orange
were surrendered. The name of New
Amsterdam was changed to New York
and that Of Fort Orange to Albany.
Governor Stuyvesant swore allegiance
to Charles II, but soon returned to
Holland. New Amsterdam, founded
over three centuries ago, had at the
time of the English conquest a popu-
lation Of 1900, while the total popula-
ton Of the province was about 10000.

Just One Inch of Rain.

When the weather bureau reports
that an inch of rain has fallen, it
means that the amount of water that
descended from the sky in that par
ticular shower would have covered the
surrounding territory to depth of one
inch II none Of 1t had run off or soaked
into the ground.
1t means that on one acre Of ground
enough water to fill more than 600
barrels Of 45 gallons each has fallen.
That quantity Of water weighs more
than 40 tons. If the rainstorm COW
cred 1000 acres, which would be a
very small shower indeed, 114,OOO tons
Of water would fall from the clouds.
Transforms frequently cover whole
states and often two or three or five
inches Of water fall in one storm. A
single widespread and heavy storm
might result in 1OO.000.OOOO tons Of
water.

On CRYING In the Theater.

So, AYERS Nora Bayes, in the Ameri-
can Magazine, in her own words:
"It is commonplace Of the theater
that the public want, above all things,
to be entertained. But that is very
far from saying that they want to be
amused. Humor is by no means the
easiest way to reach the human heart.
There are those who will tell you
that the public would far rather laugh
than cry. And when they do you
can just tell them to tell it to
Sweeney. The American public would
rather cry than laugh any day. Where
in it is not bit different from the
public in Australia, India, Russia or
France. The secret of this Is very
simple: If you can make anybody cry,
you make them forget themselves
The minute you make them forget
themselves they are being entertained.
If you can set them to thinking about
your blues instead of their own, they
are taken completely out Of them.
selves"
