further time it was entirely impossible to catch a trout in this pond. However, by experimenting in another pond equally well and not throwing back any fish, Mr. Field found that he could catch trout as long as he chose. The fish did not seem to understand that the removal of one of their number by this strange means meant danger to them, but came continually to the bait. If, Mr.

Field reasons, it is only when the captured fish, released, goes back and mingles with his fellows that the danger is learned, and then is learned instantly, it must follow that the released fish has some means of making the others understand the perils of the hook. This, whatever it is, may be called a "language." KA1LWAY TIME TAILli. J. r. S.

ii'i'i from 88 1 about the middle of the decade the supply was enormously increased and until 1893 i here was no special falling off. It was during these last years, however, that the marketing for the first time of calves and cows enlarged the' supply in market but reduced the potential supply on the ranges and farms. For the last two years the supply has dwindled and it has at last become apparent that a decided change has occured in the cattle industry, bring, ing it to the relative condition of twenty years ago. Not only has the overproduci.iou been stopped by sending the young toe it and brood cows to market, but the production is bound to fall short of consumption at the rate prevailing for the last few years with low prices, From 1890 to 1893 the percentage of increase in annual product was less Yesterday we visited the new town which is being built about six miles west of Scammon.

SAM FKEXCII Nursed and Transported. When you go through an Indian camp you can see red and green sacks standing against the sides of tho tepees, carried on the backs of little girls by means' of a blanket which is fastened at the waist with a broad leather belt, or being rocked to and fro by the wind in the boughs of Cottonwood trees. Sometimes, if the camp is going on a long journey.in search of game or for water or to escape a war party, two of these stacks are fastened together by stout straps and swung over tlie0baek of a pony, one dangling on each side, like the baskets on pack mule. But a3 a rule the horses are left for the men and boys to ride, and tho papooses are either carried by the girls or packed away on a "travoise," which is the only wagon the Indians have, and you will think it a very poor kind of a wagon when you hear how it is made. The larger "travoises" are made of two cottonwood branches and the smaller ones of stout willow sticks.

The two poles are crossed about a quarter of the distance from the small ends and held in place with strong cords of buffalo sinew; a foot or so below the joining a mat is fastened, reaching from one pole to the other and firm enough to carry heavy burdens. The frame of the mat is one long willow twig, which has to be soaked and twisted in shape while wet, and the mat is just a mesh of simply woven leathern straps. It is a strange sight to see a camp packed and ready to take up the line of march. One by one in single file they start away the men and boys over then the women and dogs dragging the last of all, girls with papooses on their backs, and little half-naked boys running along in a jog trot, breaking line every now and then to throw their balls or rob a bird's nest half hidden in the thick prairie grass.

We have heard of the language of monkeys, and of the language of hens, and of the language of crows, and even of ants; but i will bo a new idea to most people, probably, that fishes have a language of their own. An English fisherman, Mr, UasU Field, has been making some investigations which lead him to suppose that fishes have some way of communicating a notion of their experiences to other fishes, Mr, Field carried on his experiments, which ho has described in an article In the Fortnightly Review, in the fishponds of Mr. Andrew, at Guildford, England, Those ponds are full of trout, which, at the time when Mr. Field first BY MAIL IN ABYANCB; Daily and Sunday 1 year 6 months i 1 $4 00 2 00 1,00 40 C.
