FOOD FOR FISHES. How They are Fed at the New York Aquarium. Century. Sometimes a fish will refuse to eat for days, as did the large moray that came. from Bermuda.

At one time this great eel fasted for eighteen days, and at another time for twenty-seven, thus causing its caretakers the utmost anxiety. Eagerly they study the bill of fare provided for their patients. Now a live herring is offered, now a dead one; now a soft-shell clam in the shell, now a quahog minced fine, and so on through the list until the fasting animal is enticed to eat. The most attractive morsel to a moping fish seems to be a strip cut from a salted codfish and maneuveivd about on a long stick to give it the appearance of being alive. The regular daily feeding of the animals is another source of care, not only in regard to the special diets of the various kinds of fishes, but also in the serving.

The dietary is quite varied, as some fish are vegetarians, many carnivorous, and a few omnivorous. The vegetarians are few in number and feed on smoked cereals or green plants in season. The carnivores have various tastes; some are fond of soft shell clams alive in the shell, others will eat only quahogs or little neck clams minced fine; some will eat only living fishes that they can capture; others thrive on fresh dead fishes from which the bones have been removed; some require a diet of live shrimps or small crabs; and almost all enjoy a bit of salted codfish as a delicacy. Beside the fishes there are the turtles, seals, lobsters, sea anemones and others to provide for, each requiring a special knowledge of its wants and habits through all the seasons. The number of mouths to be fed regularly exceeds three thousand, and the supply of food comes largely from Fulton market; but the live fishes and shrimps must be caught and handled by the attendants, who dra" their supplies almost entirely from the nearby waters of Sheepshead and Gravesend bays.

The two lecturers of the day were perhaps the most interesting and pleasing of any giving during this session of the assembly. At 2 o'clock P. in the Auditorium, George E. Vincent, sou of Bishop Vincent, delivered his great lecture, "Crowds and Mobs, or Social Psychology." Mr.

Vincent first cited the effect of a game of baseball on a strong partisan of the winning side, next the effect of a rousing political speech on a strong partisan believing with the speaker, next a strong religious plea which would affeet the hearer to that extent that the audience pledged $15,000 for the cause of missions.

The Coining stove works, of which G. W. Drake is president and L. D. Streeter vice-president, suffered from a serious lire yesterday.

The tire took place iu the second story over the ouices, in the portion of the building used as a pattern room aud tiu shop. Volumes of smoke poured from the windows, accompanied by flames, which looked at one time as if the entire stove works were doomed to destruction. The Corning fire department responded quickly to a hurry call and soou had streams of water on the tire. After a terrific battle with the flames for a period of over half an hour, tho lire was gotten under control. Just what caused the fire is not known, although it burned with great fury after finding vent through the windows.

The damage is over $5,000, which is covered by insurance. The Corning stove works are one of Coming's thriving industries, and it is fortunate that the firemen subdued the flames before the concern was crippled to any great extent. Drought Conditions Serious. The drought in Corning and vicinity is causing great damage and much uneasiness among the farmers. Crops are suffering untold damage, especially the late tobacco crops.

The railroads are experiencing great inconvenience in some cases, especially tho New York Central, as along the Pine Creek division there have been as many as sixteen trains tied up along the tracks, unable to procure water with which to make steam for power. In some cases the "dead" train engines are hauled to water cranes miles awuy, whero a supply is gotten and then hauled back again to the trains. The damage to traflic is great, as, should the drought continue, it would be a question of great expense in providing water for the engines. An old resideut of Corning said the water iu the Chemung river at Corning was tho lowest it had been in forty years. Death at Hornellsville.

Clyde Moore, a son-of Highway Commissioner Ormond (Moore, of Bluff Point, a lad of about 10 years, a frightful experience yesterday iuoa-ning with a tame bear at IHectric park. The boy has bo-n in the habit of wrestling with, the bear, much to the amusement of spectators, and although the boast hasrowQ to outweigh him by a considerable number of pouuds, he had never experienced any serious trouble with him until yesterday, and the bear teemed to enjoy the sport as much or more than his opponent or the spectators. Young Moore had been away for several days, and yesterday was the first time since his return that he had gotten into the inclosure for anothen friendly wrestle. Evidently the beast had "forgotten the boy or had lost his friendliness for him, as he used him in rough shape, and as soon as the animal had smelled or tasted the lad's blood he became furious, and prompt Interference only saved the boy's life. The screams of the boy brought people from the power house nearby, and young Moore was finally Teleased from the clutches of the bear after a hard light in which he was pounded into submission.

The boy was taken to the office of the company and Dr. Joseph T. Cox, of Penn Yan, was speedily summoned. The injuries consist of a bad wound on the scalp, over the temple, which has the arpeturanee of having been made by a series of teeth bites, and at last accounts was badly swollen; a gash about four inches long ou the chest, a bad cut under the right arm, nearly a dozen long cuts on the Tight leg. besides scratches innumerable.

Many of the wounds were made with the teeth and others with the claws. These were sewed up or cauterized by Lr. Cox, who made the child as comfortable as possible under the circumstances. In a private car the lad was then re moved to his home. It is believed that the bov will suffer greatly from shock, and.

if he withstands this, has a good chance to recover, but blood poison is to be feared. The danger resulting from bites by a bear jb not 60 great as from a dog.
