Movements Of Fishes.

Remarkable Investigations into the
habits of fish are being carried out by
the British ministry of fisheries. The
object is to discover how far and in
what direction fish travel; whether
there are seasons in which organized
migrations take place; and how fast
various kinds of fish grew. A special
research steamer has been fitted with
tanks through which sea-water flows
continuously. This vessel sets out
from Lowestoft and smSll nauls are
made at selected spots. Tie catch is
shot into a tank. and the livellest
specimens are measured and marked.
After this they are put into a second
tank, and all sickly fish are weeded
out. The best specimens are set free.
and record is kept Of the places
where they were released.

CARED LITTLE ABOUT NONE,
Daniel Webster Refused to Sc Both

Questions Of Finance.

In A. B. Farquahars aThe First
Million the Hardest he optlmistIcally
points OFT that the senate has greatly
improved in business integrity since
Daniel Webster's day, when senators
could not be expected to bother about
paying their bills. Mr.. Farquahar was
once talking with Mr.. Coreoran fof
the Coreoran art gallery fame) IA his
bank at Washington. Daniel Webster
had just been In to borrow money
and had asked the cashier TO discount
his note for 500. The bark did not
discount notes that were not indorsed.
so Webster went out ard brought In
note for $500. Endorsed by another
senator with whom he had promised
to divide the profits. Mr.. Corcoran
remarked that the only value of the
note was as a curiosity. II was never
paid, and the Riggs bank still has II.
Daniel Webster was very careless
about all Of his personal affairs" says
Mr.. Farquahar. ale was said TO be
scrupulous about paying his gambling
debts. but he did not bother with little
bills. He often thought II quite enough
to give creditor a copy OF his sig
nature without bothering to honor the
promise 10 pay on It.
HE was such powerful. leonine
sort OF man and his voice was so
glorious and magnificent that | 10
not believe any one In the country
would have ventured to mention such
a trivial thing as money in his pres
ence. Few more impressive men have
ever lived--in fact, he had been called
living lie. because. as was said, no
man could possibly be as great as
Webster looked"

IRENE COMING
viii Be Seen i'm Auditorium This Month
with Most of Cast Who Have Be
come Famous with 1t.

Irene, the fascinating musical com
edy which has been one of the most sue
cessful of the past decade, is coming to
the Auditorium this month No musi-
cal comedy of recent years has come
here with a higher stamp of success than
that of Irene, which is now in its
fourth year 'of popularity and still con
sidered one of the seasons biggest draw
ing cards.
Irene has the distinction of making
theatrical history in that it has broken
all runs and financial returns both in
this country and abroad for musical
comedy and has never been presented
under any direction other than that of
its original sponsors, the Vanderbilt
Producing Co., which is in a measure
one of the many reasons it has stood the
test of time and is still adding new
Iaurels to its list.
The play will be offered here with
most of the cast who have become fa-
