NEW YORK. ? Two thousand girls
attending the Erasmus High school,
Brooklyn, have held a mass meeting
at which they decided to Ignore an
edict issued by the assistant princi
pal prohibiting the wearing of "rats"
and "puffa" in their lmir. The order
to discontinue the use of such aids
to feminine adornment created such
consternation that the girls held a
mass meeting after school hours and
agreed that the new rule would not
be observed, and that all girls who
so desired might continue the wear
ing of puffs and rats and would have
the support of all the girl students.
The school faculty have taken a
determined stand in the matter, and
U. is expected that a clash will re
sult between the pupils and the
teaching staff.

QUEER JAPANESE FISH.
One That Uses Its Fin as a Sail ? How
the Dorado Is Caught.
One of the most interesting of fish
of Japanese waters is the oriental sail
lish (Illstiophorus orlentalls). The
generic name, given by I->r. Ouenther,
means the sail bearer and refers to
the huge dorsal fin possessed by the
species.
The fin stands higher than the body
above if and is used as a still before !
(lie wind. It Is a large fish, ten feet In
length and weighing 100 pounds. They j
swim about usually in pairs In rough
and windy weather, with the huge fins
above the water.
It Is a favorite food fish, and the an
nual catch Is nearly 2,000,000 pounds. !
The sail lish Is caught by means of a
harpoon.
Another food fish, known as a dol- '
[>hin or dorado. Is sometimes caught In
a curious way. The fishes congregate
under a decoy bush and raft made of j
bamboos and are then caught by hooks j
halted wilh sipilds, <>r the decoy bush
Is surrounded by a seine net, and the i
dolphins are driven by lteatlng the sur
is eaten both fresh and salt and Is as j
great a favorite In western Japan as
the salmon is In the northeast.? Zoolo
Scotch Sabbath.
For traveling, trading and all the
tilings one must not do on the Sab
I bath, Scotland, of course, must ever
I hold the palm. Xot In the seventeenth
: century alone, Imt through all the
; ages and even unto the present day
the Scotch Sunday has a law unto it
1 self. There Is the experience of James
I'ayn, for instance. In the Edinburgh
of only the seventies. "In the street
where I tlrst resided," he wrote, "It
struck me that to judge by the drawn'
down blinds the people spent a good
deal of their time ui?on the seventh
day In bed. On my second Sunday,
however, I was undeceived, for my
landlady came up and Informed mc
that, though she had not spoken of It
last Sunday, she must now draw my
attention to the fact that It was not
usual In Edinburgh to draw up the
window blinds on the Sabbath and
that the neighbors had begun to re
mark upon the 'unlawful appearanco'
of her establishment, which had here
tofore been a God fearing house."
A Justifiable Protest.
"What's that?" cried the convicted
Incendiary. "Five years ? Well, If you
people ain't the worst I ever ran up
against! Here I goes out In the even
In' an' sets -tire to the tallest bulldin' j
