Fish seem to have no sense of feel ing, and many people believe that the angry and energetic movements of a fish when It is caught are due rather to annoyance at losing its liberty than to any sense of pain. I can confirm this, because I have over and over again taken an undersized pike that has been once or twice caught and put back Into the water. Upon one occasion three of us boys .

The writer remembers a good many years ago when the late Ezeklel Clarke waa a member of the state senate from Johnson county. - It Is well known that the senator or member from Johnson v-innfv ta nlwnvs exrected to eet a Wrtrft annronrlatlon for the state uni versity. To fall would be political death. Senator Clarke was anxious to succeed and during the early part of the session voted for everything. If another senator had a bill, all he had to do was to go and whisper In Ezekiel's ear, and he would vote "aye." One day, however, Ezeklel came Into the senate with hair cut and a clean shave. He sat upright In his seat and began to slaughter right and left. State Senator George F. Wright look- I ed across to wnere x-ae Beuaiur nuixi I jonnson was sitting and Inquired what v"i Amn tn where the senator rrom I . j nnn. Vm conntnr from Johnson county. The other sen ator replied that the appropriation bill for the state university had now pass ed both houses, and the senator from Johnson was going to make up for lost time. Clarke kept on punching heads until the senator from Jefferson, Moses A. McCoId, rose and solemnly Introduced a ,blll for- an act entitled "An act repealing the appropriation for the state university." . A broad smile pass ed 'around the room, and everybody excepVthe senator from Johnson saw the Joke But the splrit of levity pass ed away from Senator Clarke. He at once assumed his humble attitude, and the other boys voted him as usual dur ing the remainder of the session. Des Moines Capital. The Architect. One must wonder why It really Is that so little Is said or thought about architecture, the grandest, the mother, of all arts, a great, a most useful sci ence, one In which a greater revolution has lately taken place and In which more progress has been made, witn more stupendous results, than In any other, remarks a writer In The inter j national Magazine. Was lt not Richelieu who, paraphras ing an ancient writer, said: "If it Is versatility you seek, go find an archi tect. He must be an artist, or his buildings will offend the eye; an engi neer, or they will crumble Into trouiue; a lawyer, or be will get his patrons In to trouble; a doctor, or his buildings will be hygienically unfit to live in, and. Last, but not least, he must be a gentleman, or we will have nothing to dv with him." J. WHOLESALE- GEOCER ATTO DEALERS IK- te. Cement, Hair & Plaster.
