Fish in Small Ponds in Winter. One of the incidents of a hard and long continued frost is the suffocation of fish and eels in small ponds where no thoughtful person has broken holes in the ice to permit the aeration of the water which is necessary for the continuation of fish life. When ponds are thus hermetically sealed, eels appear to suffer more than any other fish. On a hole being broken they come to the surface in a half dying condition and are easily caught. At Diglis, near Worcester, a number of eels have been caught in this way, the instrument of capture being a pair of blacksmith's tongs. In the pond at Dulwich an enormous eel has been killed. The water was entirely covered with ice, and a hole being made a great eel came to the surface. It appeared to be in a comatose condition, and was taken out without much difficulty. It measured 3 feet 9 inches in length, was 12 inches round the thickest part and weighed 9 pounds. But, though eels, along with other fish, suffer from insufficient aeration of the water in small ice covered ponds, there is no doubt that they are peculiarly susceptible to cold as well. There are several instances of conger eels being washed ashore in great numbers during the continance of severe frosts, their air bladders being tightly distended. In 1841 great quantities of eels were killed in the River Lagan by the frost and floated down to the quays at Belfast. There are, however, instances of eels which had been literally frozen and quite brittle reviving after an hour or so spent in a tub of water placed in a warm room. — London Graphic. Peril in Double Lighting Fixtures. "There is a good deal of danger in these gas and electric light fixtures," said a practical electrician to me the other day. "I mean in the kind which are used for gas and electric light in combination. Of course it is convenient to have the gas all ready for use if the electric apparatus gets out of order, and in the剧院 and public institutions the joint fixtures are particularly useful, no doubt. But I think where the double fixtures are used in hotels or private houses the taps ought to be made conspicuously distinct; in fact, it would be well to have the gas tap screwed up while the electric light is being used. "The other day two actresses came mighty near being suffocated in a Pittsburgh hotel through the double fixture trap. When they went to bed one of them tried to turn out the electric light." to have the gas all ready for use if the electric apparatus gets out of order, and in theatres and public institutions the joint fixtures are particularly useful, no doubt. But I think where the double fixtures are used in hotels or private houses the taps ought to be made conspicuously distinct; in fact, it would be well to have the gas tap screwed up while the electric light is being used. "The other day two actresses came mighty near being suffocated in a Pittsburg hotel through the double fixture trap. When they went to bed one of them tried to turn out the electric light. She did turn a tap, but it didn't shut off the light. Then her companion got up and turned off the electric light. But the first girl had turned on the gas when she thought she was turning off the electric light. Result, two young women in a state of asphyxiation next morning; would have been dead had not their room been very large. It is a mistake likely to occur, and those who have double fixtures should take care in time."—Pittsburg Dispatch. Wissmann's Man Baptized. The negro Sankurru, who has been Maj. von Wissmann's companion and servant for many years, was baptized a few days ago at the parish church of Lauterberg. Sankurru was liberated by Wissmann from the hands of a slave dealer in 1884. He visited Lauterberg in 1887. When the major went to Madira in the same year to recruit his shattered health Sankurru enlisted as a soldier in Dr. Wolf's expedition to the Tongoland. In November last he returned a second time to Germany, with the intention of joining Wissmann, to whom he is devotedly attached, upon his next journey to Africa. He expressed a wish to become a Christian, and after regular instruction by Pfarrer Spannth, of Lauterberg, he was baptized in the presence of a great congregation in the parish church, before whom the negro made his public confession of the faith. The sister of the imperial commissary stood as one of his sponsors. Three days after his baptism the ardent negro followed his master to Africa.—Pall Mall Gazette. A Girl That Cries Glass. The physicians and oculists of Findlay, O., are greatly puzzled over the case of Jennie Sutton. From the right eye of the girl fifty-four pieces of broken glass were taken by Dr. T. C. Fritch. These pieces of glass have been coming from the eye of this girl for the last month, and only Friday Dr. Fritch removed every evidence of glass in the eye and announced that all were taken out. The next day she came back and had fifty-four more pieces removed. The girl is a domestic in the family of ex-County Surveyor Stringfellow, whose wife has been taking the particles of glass from the girl's eye for a month past. It is estimated that over 100 pieces of glass have been taken from the eye since the case first attracted attention. Exchange.

Wednesday Mr. Wash Tetter went out early in the morning to look after his stock, and about 10 or 11 o'clock his horse returned home without him. His wife sent a negro to see about him. The negro followed the horse's tracks to the bottom, where he found the dead bodies of Mr. Tetter and Mr. James Philpot, and a dead hog. Mr. Tetter was shot in the abdomen. Mr. Philpot was shot through the neck. The supposition is that the two men met over the dead hog, each claiming it, and that they concluded to shoot it out. They both had Winchester rifles—Houston (Miss.) Cor. Memphis Appeal-Avalanche.
