A widespread and deadly epidemic disease is killing the fish in the Jakes and ponds of Connecticut- Thousands of the fish have died and floated ashore, very -white In color, sometimes with a fungous growth on their bodies and In some cases the lins. dropping off. It appears, so far as reported, to have affected only perch and pickerel, the bass, when in the affected waters, having escaped, and in no case have the fish died In mill ponds. The disease appears to be similar to that in the kiland waters oi the State in 1879, when a kind of slug was found In the bodies of the fish. The cause of the epidemic will bo investigated, it is stated, by one of the professors of YVesleyan University. LTD II E. PIXKHaM'S VEGETABLE COMPOUND Benefits Three Generations.

But in no oart of this country,

porhaps, havj so many valuable finds" been made ns in tho territory of New Mexico. All this region seems to have been thickly peopled ages ago by a highly civilized race. On tho highest point of the great rotrero de las acas of Isew Mexico are the most remarkable prehistoric relics that have been discovered, being no less than the gods sculptured in stone that were worshiped by the ancients. These are the statues of mountain lions carved from a volcanic rock. The images are inclosed in a rude and almost circular stone wall, in a space of fifty feet in cir cumference, three feet in height.with an entrance projecting eighteen feet tovai;u tho southeast three feet wide. The lions face directly toward tho east, are two in number, separated by a space of twelve inches, and are each six feet in length, and each rep resents a puma, or mountain lion, in the act of crouching for a spring. The heads of these statues are almost entirely destroyed, showing plainly the marks of the pious hammer that sought their overthrow. Tho legs, bodies and tails of the animal are better preserved, and constitute the remains of tho most remarkable stone images set up for pagan worship in tho territory of the United States. To thcysc gods tho Cochita Indians of tho present day pay homage. Blackbirds Win the Day. InlCapitol Tarkthe other day a flock of blackbirds attacked and put to flight a well kept greyhound that was taking a quiefe trot up the walk . The feathered army, apparently at a signal given by one of their number, swooped down on the unsuspecting dog and strusk him with their sharp bills and claws on ail sides, at the same tiirua giving forth sharp, shrill and angry cries. But his dogship was not easily bluffed and started on his course through tho park. This was provocation for another onslaught by the feathered army and for nearly a minuto it was hard to distinguish between dog and birds, tho air and the walk were so thick with hair and feathers, but the greyhound finally wavered, turned and fled, 'followed to the Tenth and X street entrance by the victors. Tcrchoi on fence, shrub and tree. the dog going down the street with an occasional scared look bohind him, the birds seemed to say: "You want to read the signs, and when thev say 'no dogs allowed in these grounds, that's just what it means, and we will see that tho law is enforced, if it takes the last feather out of our tails." Tramp Restaurants Abroad. Edinburgh can bo reckoned one of tho best mooching towns in Great Britain, and if I were a beggar, casting about for a life residence, I think I should select this beautiful city, and that from my own personal experience. There is something deliriously credulous in the true citizen, and the university makes it ft specially good place for clothes. Our first meal in the town we found at a "refuge" in High street. Wo paid a penny apiece for a quart of good thick soup and half a loaf of bread. It was the largest quantity of soup I ever had for so little money; but it should be remembered that it was a charity. Cheap restaurant living, in both Scotland and England, is more of a theory than a realitj'. For twopence I have had a dinner at a Herbage in Germany that I could not get in Great Britain for fivo; and for 10 cents I have had the table d'hote with four courses in Chicago that I could not got in London for a shilling. Wouldn't Eat Them Raw. A story comes from the dispensary of one of the Chicago hospitals. The physician in attendance after listening to a woman's tale regarding her husband's ailment, prescribed somo medicine ' and also told her to apply some leeches on the sick man. When the woman returned next day the doctor asked her if her husband was better. "No," she said; "ho is rather worse, if anything." ' Did you follow out my instructions with regard to tho leeches"" Woll, no not exactly. John wouldn't eat them raw, so I fried them for him." Bug Destroyers fcr Hawaii. The Hawaiian Consul has received an order from tho Commissioner of Agriculture and Forestry of Hawaii for 500 horned toads, to bo used in the island todostroy .1 bug that is eating everything in sight. The Commissioner wroto that a lot of toads had been imported, but that they required water, which waa not always har dy, while the horned toads need no wator and to equally expert as bug catchers. Cousul W00J, therefore, advertised for horned toads, offering to pay $1 per dozen for them. Coffe Crop Short. The coffee crop of South and Central America this year will bo about 10 per cent, short of the crop of last year, according to statistics roceived. Tho Brazilian crop last season was 7,100,000 bags, and tho new crop is estimated at considerably less. The Mexican and Central American crops aro increasing yearly. Tho world's consumption of colTco last year was ll.:.')7,250 bags, of which the United States was first as a consumer and Brazil first as a producer.

Scheme by Which Southern Growers Hope to Accomplish This Purpose. The cotton-growers of the South are discussing the problem of how to regulate the acreage and production of cotton so as to prevent glutting the markets every year and reducing the price below the profit mark. The Alabama Cotton-growers' Association recently advocated the agreement plan, w hereby all growers were to be pledged to reduce their production a certain per cent, for tho common good. This scheme, however, though apparently the simplest and most effective, was soon found to be Impracticable, for its success depended upon the unanimous consent of all the large growers, and this it was Impossible to socure. Having abandoned the agreement plan, then, the growers are now proposing a substitute which promises to bring better results, because it strikes at the root of a system that is indirectly responsible for the yearly increase in cotton production. It Is found that a decrease of acreage can hardly be secured so long as the Southern freedraen are induced to rent small holdings and pay the rental in cotton. This practice is said to be common. The freedmen secure a few acres, and the whole family plant as much cotton as their united labor can achieve. In order to do this the freedmen secure advances on their crop from country traders, and when they have delivered the cotton for rental, the remainder barely suffices, often does not sullice, to repay the advances. The number of small growers being very large, the volume of production is constantly increasing, because the average increases as fast as the freedmen strike out for themselves. It Is proposed to remedy this by making rents of such lands payable in live stock, corn and vegetables Instead of cotton. This would not only decrease the cotton product measurably, but at the same time would enable the freedmen to provide sustenance for their families which at present they neglect to do, being intent on raising cotton. Whether the plan succeeds In reducing the cotton acreage cv not it will, if put into practice, be likely to result in greater variety of agricultural products, and this is said to be greatly needed In cotton-growing districts.

THE GUXMAKEIl OF ILI0X. JEFFERSON M. CLOUGH REFUSES A TEMPTING OFFER FROM THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT. ilia Health Was Too Poor to Termit Attention to Uusincss-A Great Sufferer for Many Yearst but Uns Now Kccovcred. (From the Spring field. Mass., Union.) There isn't a gun manufacturer in the United States who does not know Jefrerson M. CIoupli, and why? liecause he has been intimately associated all his life with tbe development of the two best American ritlos. Hie Komington and Winchester. For years he was Superintendent of the 1. Remington & Son: great factory at Uion, N. Y. After leaving there he refused a tempting offer of the Chinese tJovernment to go to China to superintend their Government factories and accepted instead the superintendency of the ViixJiester-Arms Co., nt New Haven, at a salary of 7,?) a year. It was after this long term of active labor as a business man that he found himself incapacitated for further service by the embargo which rheumatism had laid upon him and resigned his position more thr.n two years ago, and returned to Delehertown, Mas.'., where ne now lives and own the l'he'ps farm, a retired spot where he has 500 acres of land. lleing a man of means he did not spare the cost and was treated by leading physicians and by baths at celebrated spring without receivhig any benefit worth notier. Düring the summer of ISOo and the winter of lhUt Mr. Clough was confined to his house in Ilelchertown, being unable to rise from his bed without assistance, and suffering continually with acute pains and with no taste or desire for food, nor was he able tc obtain sufficient sleep. Earlv in the year 11)4 Mr. ( lough heard öf Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People. He begun tnking these pills about tliN first of March, 1SÜ4, nud continued to rli so until the first part of September following. The first effect noticed was a better appetite, and he began to note more ability to help himself off the bed nnd to be better generally. Last August (lS'Jl) he was able to go alone to his summer residence and farm of UJ" acres on (Jrenadier Island, among the Thousand Ishinds, in the River St. Lawrence, where from the highest land of his farm he commands a view for thirteen miles down the river, and Bixty of the Thou, and Islands can he seen. Instead of being confined to his bed Mr. Clough is now and has been for some time able to he about the farm to direct the men employed there, and lie is thankful for what Dr. Williams Pink Pills have (Inno ttr li nn These pills are manufactured by the Dr. Williams' Medicine Company, Schenec tady, V 1., and are sold only in boxes Lpnrinir the firm's trade mark and wranper. at cents a box or six boxes for $-..""0, and are never sold in bulk.

A " r A Latest Theatrical Dodge. Well, we've struck It at last, says Cholly Knickerbocker in the New York Recorder. In ftn experience of many years I have seen all sorts of advertising dodges, good, bad and indifferent, but for pure, low-down and dou't-eare-so-I-get-the-money thoroughness this is the worst, and it is being practiced at a reputable Broadway theater at that. Guests at the various hotels have been receiving perfumed and delicately tinted missives in feminine handwriting, assuring the recipient that It Is the writer's most heartfelt desire to make his acquaintance, but that, having no mutual friends, It has been a matter of some difficulty. Of course, the writer is coy, and wouldn't walk up to the gentleman on the street and grab him by the lapel of his coat, so she states the evening she will be in a certain theater, sitting In a certain row. Nine times out of ten the jay endeavors to buy a seat in that row, and, failing, buys a seat anyhow, and spends the rest of the evening trying to discover who wrote him the letter. I have heard of a good many schemes, but this is about as near an approach to buuco as ever came under my notice.

The work of converting the unhealthy and disease-breeding city of Santos, In Brazil, into a modern commercial center, begun in 1S02 by Professor E. A. Fuertes, director of the college of engineering at Cornell University, Is still going on. The cost will be between $:?,000,000 and $4,000,000, and, us Professor Fuertes receives 4 per rent, of the total outlay, he will probably enjoy for some time tho distinction of being the best paid engineer whoso compensation Is on public record.
