There was nothing remarkable this, because Spain was at, that. time liberal customer in the American mar- t. but it. already owed a pretty good 'ifi‘ bill to the house in question, and ere was some doubt about filling the st requisition. However, the stuff as finally sent on promise of a. 90-day 'ttlement in full. ’fha-t- was in Septem- r, 1897,” relates the New Orleans imes-Democrat. “When the 90 days elapsed a small .yment was made and the balance omised directly after New Year's. me time in: January there was anoth- payment. and another big promise.

According to Dr. Gill, Cuba is re- markable for two species of. blind fishes, distantly related to the cod family and otherwise represented only in deep sea. forms, says the New York Tribune. They have, after many years, adapted themselves to the fresh water of the caves in which they have become iso- lated, and have lost. their sight after living man y generations without seeing daylight. In Cuba there are also fresh— water “gar pike,” curious! because of their resemblance to alligators. This similarity in appearance is suggested by the “gar pike’s” hard, bony scales, which resist. musket—shot; also by its snout, conspicuously crocodilesque. Other fresh—water fishes of Cuba are related to- similar species of South America, Mexico and the southwestern United States. Those related to our species are some forms of killifishes and mummalchogs., The only food fish in Cuban water is a large mullet, which has wand-cred inland from the. sea. Dr. Gill says that. the fresh-water fishes of Porto Rico are scarcely known _ to scientific men. The fish commis— sion’s vessel Fish Hawk is now in Porto Rican waters investigating them. Por— to Rico will contribute but meagerly to our list- of new fauna. There. we no indigenous earth animals, but- rats and mice, of course, have followed man thither. About. the only indigenous an— imal of Porto Rico is believed to be a species of bat, which from the popular point of view has nothing peculiar per- taining to it. ’ Draught.
