FISH THAT TRAVEL ON LAND
Contrary to General Belief, There Are
Many Species That Can Exist
Out of the Water.

The belief exists that fish cannot
live without water, but there is a
species of perch which walks overland
for miles, and, what is more remark
able actually climbs trees!
The Indian climbing-perch Gamma
bas) was first observed by Lieutenant
Doldorf of the Danish East India COM
pany.
To pursue rare and delicious insects
which never settle upon the water
this finny contradiction crawls over
the land by means of it's spiked fins,
which are situated under it's body, and
upon reaching a tree it hoists itself
up the trunk, using it's spiked gill-cov-
ers much the same as boys use climb
ing-irons.
Another amphibian - nearer home
this time-is the grotesque little fish
known as the shanny or the blenny.
Plentifully endowed by an all-Wise
providence with sharp fringes of spiked
fins, this little creature is nicknamed
by fishermen all around the coast as
the umbrella" or BUTTERFLY
Usually found under stones or in the
cracks of rocks at low tide, the shanny
is apparently as much at home in the
fresh air as it is in the water.
The foreign brothers and sister or
this fish emulate the example of In
dian perch, invading rivers, waiting for
low tide, then crawling up the roots
and holes of trees, looking for insects
and the larvae of insects, and crawling
in and out of the uncovered stones,
pursuing small river-fry.
OF the same family is fish which
bears the jaw-breaking name of Peri
othalmus. BY the expert use of it's
side-fins and repeated blows with it's
tail upon the ground, it hops, runs and
jumps over the strand left bare by the
receding tide, chasing the active green
crabs and small cells which infest the
sands, devouring scores of these crea-
lures.
Certain fish of the South American
tropics leave the small ponds they
have lived in to seek larger and cooler
stretches of water farther afield when
the sun threatens to dry up their late
habitations. They spend whole days
and nights upon their march and travel
by hundreds through the moist under
growth of forests.

FATALITY LIST
STILL INCREASING
ORGANIZED BAND RESPONSIBLE
FOR SPREAD OF POISON
WHISKY.
"kingpin" of "Ring" Captured, Author
tiles Claim, After Arrests in Gotham
Five Are Detained BY Federal
Agents.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
New York.-Federal agents arrested
five men whom they claimed to be the
heads of an organized band which has
been responsible for the recent wide
spread sale of wood alcohol cOncOc-
lions through five states. One of the
men arrested was described by the
Government agents as 'the kingpin of
the ring" Two of the men in custody
were described as New York business
men. For ten days, since the first
fatalities were reported from wood al
cohol poisoning, Colonel Daniel L. POr-
ter, Supervising Revenue Agent for
New York, and H. B. Dobbs, Special
Federal Agent, have been working on
the theory that the poison which has
New England and New York originat-
ed in this city.
The arrests were made in widely
separated parts Of the city. Three of
the prisoners arrested are AdOlph Pa
narelli, wine and liquor dealer; John
Rohmanelli, an undertaken, and Sam
uel X Saleeby, druggist. Investiga-
ton by police also revealed that in
the last three months Federal permits
to manufacture perfumery have been
issued to approximately 1000 persons,
of whom, it is said, not more than so
are legitimate manufacturers of per-
fume. According to police, holders of
permits are entitled to buy what is
known as COLOGNE spirits" at $3.50
gallon, and those who bought it for
other than the making of perfumes
have made purchases amounting to
hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Another death in New York from
poisonous liquor was reported, that
of Eugene Massiello, who drank a
large quantity of wine" before he
died. An autopsy will be performed.

CHINESE HOLD HILL SACRED |.
Huang Shan Created Shrine More
Than Three Hundred Years Ago,
Is Tradition.

More than 300 years ago In the Ming
dynasty Buddhist priest named Pu
Men visited the Huang Shan in the
South Anhui hills. He was charmed
with the place and became infatuated
with the idea Of making it sacred
mountain. A journey to Picking and
an audience with the royal household
resulted in the appropriation of large
sums of money for developing this
fairyland of the gods. A brass pagoda
was prepared for the first temple. 1t
vas decorated with 1000 little Bud
dhas and was called Thousand God pa
CODA. The temple, whose halls it
decked, was christened the Purple
Sand temple and is now restored and
called the Merciful Light hall.
At that time, says the North China
Herald. hundreds of priests came TO
the mountains, and there was n period
of Buddhist prosperity. Roads were
built to the tops of all the important
peaks, and at least one temple was
erected far above the line of perennial
springs
