Crawfish Decide to Migrate.

Passengerp arriving in New Orleans on a recent Sunday evening by the Louisville & Nashville railroad said the tracks were swarming with crawfish practically the whole distance between Micheud and Chef Menteur. Hundreds were walking along gathering the seafood. Baskets, heavy with squirming, wriggling, pinching crawfish were brought in by scores of persons. Expert fishermen said the fish were crawling back to calm waters, to escape the squalls outside.
