Curious Fish Story.

A duck swallowed a hook on the line of a fisherman, in Augusta, Ga., recently, and the brutal man gave a'* jerk to the.line, and to his astonishment pulled off the head of the duck,' and also brought with it a twß-and*a-half-pound Catfish, which the duck had by some means shallowed. The strangest part of the affair was that the curiosity of the fisherman prompted him to try to get the fish through the mouth of the duck, but after an hour’s trial he was compelled to desist. The fish and the duck’s head, preserved in alcohol, are exhibited in a druggist’s window in Augusta. The new elevated railway in New York is patrosi , §e4 to the fullest extent.
