--Sotue time ago a remarkable s: ry
was sent out from Sibley. Iowa, of a fall
of thousands of lish in a cloudburst.
'1 Ie- supposed fish were of a kind kiKiwu
only to abound in a lake near the City
of Mexico, and this added to tho won
der. Four specimens were secured by a
business firm of Sibley, and have been
on exhibition ever since. They are

alligator, equal'.v bv,ny in wa'er or out

of feathers, or something like it. abound

they
have changed or shed their skins, and
are now becoming spotted. Live flies
and ehoppi.'d liver aro tho chief of
their diet.
One of tho beneficent results of the
various experiments which have beer
a e u i n e a s w o v c- a s w i a
view to determine the value of elec
tricity for killing purposes, is the estab
lishment of the (act that not only can
cattle be despatched by The electric cur
rent without the least pain, but that the
meat of tho animal is act.ially improvt .1
by the passage of the current, and wii'
keep longer than by any other method.
The successful operation of an electric
slaughtering apparatus is reported from
Colorado. The apparatus consists of a
pen provided with a metallic floor di
vided into two sections, to secure a good
electrical contact, with which the hoofs
of the animal are made wet. The kill
ing is effected either by applying the
current direct to the metallic floor, or
making a direct application of the elec
trode to the head of the animal.

Almost like yachts they look, com-
1
i ared with some of the huge neighbors
Tor some of Croat 15ri tain's st rougest and
nnost terrible sea-mous'ers are gtithered
in the harbor, lying on the water as if
in slumber, quiet and tranquil enough
now, but ready to awaken at their mis
tress* budding, and io. forth death
and devastation frun. neir steel-clad
sides.
Close to our ship is the Anson: on tho
other side the huge lienbow, with mas
-ive bla'-k tiull and white, fortn ssdiko
s-.iporstructure, points the muzzles of
her enormous guns over tho tops of tba
turret-like bar!" ttes un tier decks, foru
and aft. while from the ports in her
sides the cannons of her bat series peer
menacingly outward. A fringe of davits,
from which hwrn and there a boat is
banging, runs 0:1 both sides of her upper
deck, and h«r tall military mast, tho
tops bristling with machine guns, tapers
aloft amidships. The Anson flies tho
flag of the Real Almiral on
her quarter-deck scarlet-coated white
helrneted marines arfs drawn up,
and the band is playing along
side of her fiome boats aro
lying. Further out in the bay the Iron
Duke has shaken out her topsails, and
tho canvas droops from the long yards
in graceful folds, while from her bows
to aft of her main-mast the white cloth
ing of her crew, hanging thero to dry,
flutters from the clothes-lines. Over by
the long stone wall of the New Mole
tho Northumberland and the Colossus,
the Vice Admiral's ship, and a number of
smaller vessels dispatch boats and
yachts are moored, while back among
the colliers the Monarch's white ensign
marks the presence of a man-of-war in
their midst. In he oflinganother naval
monster, tno Camperdown, is steaming
slowly out to sea.
The- harbor is alive with rowboats and
launches of all kinds. Yonder, glancing
like a fish half emerging from tho
water, comes a small, queerly shaped
craft. Circling with astonishing rapid
ity around our ship for a moment, it
darts off suddenly, and. with a swish
and quick splash, something drops from
its side. A moment later a dull report,
a flash of fire, and a little puff of blue
smoke, curling over the water some dis
tance beyond us, where a little red flag
waves from a sort of buoy floating there,
shows ns that, the torpedo that we have
just seen launched has re
ache 1 its mark.
