The su perintendent or his assistant left the hatchery for two days, and the sup ply of water became clogged up and the spawn were without water for that time and exposed to the air. From the best Information possible, the work of the hatchery for the past year has been lost, meaning that the careless ness of employes of the hatchery has lost several million young fish, includ ing the 200,000 eggs recently sent from the government hatchery at Battle Creek, Cal. First Weather Prophecy. The first attempt at scientific fore casting of the weather was the result of a storm which during the Crimean war, November 14, 1854, almost de stroyed the fleets of France and Eng land. As a storm had raged several days earlier in France, investigations were made, which showed that the two were In reality one storm, and that its path could have been ascertained and the fleet forewarned In ainp'e time to reach safety. Secured License Too Soon. At Columbus, Kan., the other day a young man took out a license to marry a girl of his acquaintance, and not until the fact that the license had been issued appeared in the papers did it occur to him to ask the young woman whether she would have him.

A case is recorded of an Egyptian desert snail which came to life upon being immersed in warm water after having passed four year3 glued to a card in the English Mu seum. Some species, in the collection of a certain naturalist, revived after they had apparently been dead for fif teen years; and snails, having been frozen for weeks in solid blocks of Ice, have recovered upon being thawed out. The eggs arc as hard to destroy as the snail itself. They seem perfectly indifferent to freezing, and have been known to prove productive after hav ing been shriveled up in an oven to the semblance of grains of sand. Vitality of Snalla.

A Hopeless Case. He- -"Miss Dimples is rather vain, Its she not?” She—“Vain! Well. I should remark! Why, that girl actually wears out a mirror every three weeks looking at herself!" Ample Grounds. “Yes,” said DeAuber, “1 am firmly wedded to my art.” “Well,” replied his friend, “art might get a dlwtrce on the grounds of Incompatibility.” Apple .lack. A. J. Beveridge, the newly elected Senator from Indiana, was nicknamed “Apple Jack” by his fellow-students In De Pauw University. It Is said that his first fame as an orator was brought about in a novel way. It was adver tised In an Indiana town that ex-Gov ernor Beveridge of Illinois would de liver an address. When young Bever idge arrived and saw the flaming post ers he did not wish to speak, but final ly decided to make the best of it. When the crowd first saw the boy orator they laughed, but as he warmed up their laughter changed to cheers, and right there he made his public reputation as an orator. He has ever since been In great demand. He is a young athletic man, full of vigor and with a mind his own. Philosophical prenchmen. Give tbe Impression of ltelng the Hap piest People In the World. The more nations I make the ac quaintance of, the more deeply con firmed I get in this conviction, that the-^ Frenchman, with all his faults and shortcomings, is the happiest man in the world, says the North American Review. Of course, the wealthy classes have everywhere found the way of en joying life, more or less; but to the observer of national characteristics these classes are uninteresting. Good society is good society everywhere. For a study, give me the masses of the people. And it is among the masses in France that, after all, I find the greatest amount of happiness. The Frenchman is a cheerful philosopher. He knows best of all how to live and enjoy life. Moderate in all his hab its, he partakes of all the good things that nature has placed at his disposal, without ever making a fool of himself. He understands temperance In the true acceptation of the word, which means, not total abstinence, but moderation. When you say that a country has a temperate climate you do not mean that it has no climate at all; you mean that it has a climate that is neither too hot nor too cold. We have no teetotalers, because we practically have no drunkards. A Frenchman would be as astonished to find that the law pre vented him from enjoying a glass of wine, because a few imbeciles use wine to get drunk with, as he would to find that the law forbade him to use knives in his quiet and peaceful home, be cause there are a few lunatics who use snives to commit suicide with or till Weir fellow creatures.
