FISH IN AN OLD WELL.
Some queer fish were taken out of the recently reopened well on the United States fish station at San Marcos, Texas, says the Louisville Courier-Journal. There were several salamanders, varying in length from an inch and a half to four and a half inches. These creatures live on land or water, have human-looking faces, hands and feet, bulldog head, tail of an eel and body of fish. There were also large numbers of shrimps, resembling sea shrimps, only much smaller. It is an artesian well, and everybody wants to know where the creatures come from.
A wonderful artesian well is in flourishing activity at Huron, N. D. It throws a stream 100 feet high, and the flow is estimated at from 8,000 to 10,000 gallons a minute.
