B, ~, ) THE OMATIA DAILY I%EE: FRIDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1881 A BABY MERMAID. Wonderful Haul Made by a Camden Fisherman., How it was Captured and What . It s, Philadelphia Tim s, “‘Say, mister, hev you got that erc sca sarpint in here?” cautiously in- quired a Jersoy farmer, as he poked a frowsy head through the doorway of Brooker's liquor store, Second and Federal streots, Camden, at noon yes- terday. “Yeos, sir; Brooker, “‘Be this it/ asked the farmer, as he stood and pointed a sun-burned hand toward a lively young Florida{ alligator in a glass box. *‘Not exactly: only a second cousin or 8o, There's the thing you came to see hanging up there on the wall.” ‘‘Well, 1'd be swashed if that don't look just like Jenkina' new baby over to the village, Taint a child, is it”’ When told that it was a mormaid fresh from the dephts of the Atlantic the countryman's e{on stood out on his cheek bones, and he gazed around at the crowd with a_bewildcred stare. W mermaid! Well, well. T've hecrn tell of such things; an’ my dar- ter what works over to the coloncl's used to read out of picture books 'bout meermaids acomen’ their hair in the ocean, but I never sced one afore, and the old man’s curiosity and won- derment knew no bounds. WHAT HE WONDERED AT, The object inquestien, described by many as a mermaid, from its resem- blance to the human family, hung by a string on the wall, and was being in- upcctod by a crowd of the curious, Tt was about two feet and a half in length, and so many points of resem- blance to a new-born child did it have that many persons manifested little re- luctance in prononncing it a genuine baby mermaid. Tts body, with the exception of the feet and tail and the location of the arms, was in appear- ance the samo as that of a child, and might be described as a revised yor- sion of a skinned monkey. The.head ran to a peak at the top, and was set on a short neck and well-defined shoulders. The oyes were sunken, and were covered, in lieu of eyulinls, withgrisly scales. The nosc was quite prominent and ended in the mouth, the lips of which wercof a hard, grisly flesh, and fringed with eight teutll on the inside—four upperand four lewer. The tongue bore an almost perfect re- semblance to the human tongue, and back of it could be seen two small ton- sils, The breast and abdomen were remarkably similar tc those of man, the ribs being well formed, but about forty in number. The arms extended to the hips, and terminated in five fin- gers, with claw-like nails, the joints being at the point of connection with the body. ~ The legs were long, term- inating in fins, and bore resemblance to those of a baby. At theend of the backbone a well-defined tail, five inches in length, protruded, ending vertically in two small fins. Strange to eay therewas not the sign of a scale, a soft, fleshy skin covering the entire body, which was destitute of hair. The weight of the creature was about six pounds. L HOW IT WAS CAUGHT. “I was fishing for flounders or weakfish about seven miles off Brigan- tine beach in company with a yacht- ing party,” said James Garrison Jr., amden to a reporter, ‘“‘and when ot tired of the sport 1 changed the bait and threw the line in another direction. Pretty soon I felt astrong jerk and I thought I had a good-sized fish. I pulled mn the line rapidly, thinking I had on a flounder, but you could have floored me with a feather when I hauled that thing on deck. The captain yelled out: *Shiver my top-gallants, Garrison, but you've caught a mermaid.” Isat down and looked at the thing flopping around, and almost expected 1t to walk up and speak to me. I took the ho out of its mouth and_put it in a pail of water, but it lived only two hours. Why, I felt as though I were killinga human being when I pulled the barb out of its flesh. 1t looked so much like a dying child that the captain, who is a trifle superstious, wanted to talk to it, and felt so sorry that he almost blubbered likea girl. 1hrought it up to Camden, intending to pre- serve it in alcohol, but Brooker wanted it, and I guess he'll preserve it.” The creature was brought to this city yesterday afternoon for preserve- tion. It is the intention of the own: ers to place it on exhibition in some museun, Dr, 0. B, Gross, of Camden, says that the animal is the young male of o | the sharp-nosed ray, This species, he declares, is very common on these coasts, though the youngare rarely seen. The pectoral fins, which are large and flesh tied on the back in suck a peculiar way as to give color to the mermaid legend, walk in," replied Brother Gardner on “Stuff.” Dotroit Free Press. “De udder Sunday afternoon,” said the old man as h ea t at his shirt collar, “1 nh-ppul to look over a collection of stuff on de s t. Dar was a heap ob ole chairs, two ole stoves, two or free lounges, a broken bedstead, two ole mattrasses, an’1 a know what else, De stuff spread ober a quarter of a acre of ground, an' yet de hull pile wasn't wull 15 conts.

Take de world as you fin' it, and onc- half ob de people in it seem to have come along jist to fill up an’ keep de weeds down.

No man who earrics hands in his pockets kin keep pace wid de world.” LEMONANDORANGE MARKET High Prices Paid for Lemons Late- 1y - Cause of the Advanoce. New York Tribune. There is a great scarcity of lemons in the market at present; the price has been steadily advancing for some wecks, until now it is from 810 to 811 50 a box, One of the leading auctionecrs, who deals in lemons and orangos, said Saturday: ‘*The lemon markot is the most fickle in the world. Upon the most careful esti- mate of the trade of previous years, one can make no ecalculation for a succeding year. I have been in the business for twenty-five years, yot I cannotdo it. One reason for this is that the trade does not de- pend upon sailing veasels, as of old, when one knew just how many lemons would be shipped, and one could make arrangements to hold them for a month. The cable has done away with all that; lemons cannot be held, * | there is a continual shipping, and no end to it. Conrequently they have to be disposed of immediately, and by auction. Kvery box of lemons, and of oranges, too, that comes here is sold at auction. This makes the market very fickle and liable to sudden fluc tuations, ““1 he heaviest bulk of lemons is re ceived between December 1 and May 1. During that time this year the rates were very low, prices being from 21.50 to 82 a box. All dealers lost money and all wore discouraged. The extreme hot weather in the west, the unusual hot weather here, and the fecling that there was no use storing lemons for an advance, owing to the conditions 1 first mentinm-d, led to the present state of aftairs. Lemons went up to 85, then to 88 and 810, 1 think no one could give the precise reason for this first jump in prices. Then everybody said: “They're all crazy and will all et stuck,’ but no ono was ‘stuck.’” The price went straight ahead, until now it is $11.50 per box for first-class lemons. The west is {aking a great many, and the Sicily crop is over. ¢‘I'he next crop will be the Malaga, which is due this week. So far as we can tell, the market is in good condi- tion for the crop. But the present prices will not hold, as the Malaga Jemon is inferior to the Sicily, bei hard and green und of thicker skin: it will tide us over, however, until the new Sicily lemen comes in in De- cember. The Malaga will probably sell at 5 a 1ox.” “What are the prospects for the new Sicily crop?” ““The quality is good and promises well. When the new crop arrives the market will be relieved, but it is im- possible to say anything of its effect on prices.” ‘‘Have dealers made large profits in the present rise?” ‘“‘Immense profits have been made within the last tifty days, but not by American dealers, an exporters on the other side have made the money. The business, in fact, is changimg very much, and going into the hands of Italian exporters.” “‘Another reason for the present scarcity is that people forget how rapidly the country is growing and they ~ don't give sufficiently large orders, Where 30,000 hoxes lasted a month in olden times they now last only a week orless. I don't expect such a state of things as this in ten years again, yet it may come in two. Mo show how money is lost and made in the trade, T l\nu\v of an Italian firm that lost $40,000 early in the year and made $50,000 n the riso in price.’ Of oranges the dealer said: ‘A good market is expected, as_the weather was poor last winter in Northern Flor- ida and Louisiana, Owing to this New Orleans merchants have gone to Southorn Florida to secure the defi- ciency; hence we expect high prices for Florida oranges andgood prices for Jamaicas and Valencias from Spain. The Florida oranges owing to the con- tinucd planting of trees, will in time seriously interfere with the foreign trade. In five years they will much cheaper, and in the early nmnflm of the year especially will compete fayorably with foreign oranges, The price to-day for the bust oranges is %2 50 a box,” A BEAUTY'S BLUNDER. How a Blue-Blooded Belle Com=- mitted Social Suicide White Sulphur Cor. of the New Orleans Tines, An individual in « dress coni orna- mated with a sparse array of hrass but- tons and o star and a single stripe across his cuffs was sweeping and eir- cling about the room m the lust of the newstep waltzes, and naturally attract- ed attention, He was introduced to one blue blooded younglady, who stifly informed him that she was not danc- ing that evening and froze up his fur- ther utterances with an icy starce, As he left she turned with celestial ive in her countenance and said: “How dare they iutrodu man car conductor pudence! Think of him!” “My dear, 1gnorant, lass from the interior,” said the con- vulsed recipient of the angry burst, “don’t you know he is a master of the United States navy, the greatest social swell that hreathes, always ex- cepting that most inagnificent and god-like creature, a licutenant of ma. rines!” “I don't believe it,” she said, crim- soning. *‘Where's his sword and his gold lace and trinnmings. Ho has horrowed that coat from lns waiter and sewed the buttons on the tail of it himself, or else he is a conductor, I knowheis a fraud when I see him walk,” Argument was powerless to con vinee thudymlnu woman that she had mmitted social suicide and com mitted the biggest blunder of the sea son or that the modestly ornamented coat was really what the officors call the *‘social” uniform, and not the me dancing with landlubberly an’' he's nebber scen de day dat he gorgeous garment of full dress, .| be s | Incidents of the Monrning in Now York. If there can be such a point as lux | ury in grief, New York attained it in | its display of insienia of mourning. | Probably” 100,000 would not cover the expenditures for hlack ayd white cloth used in the decorations. The wublic buildings and a large number o privato houses remain deaped. The proposal to give the goods to the poor of this city and the sufferers by the Michigan fire has not met with the response it deserves. Some of the big dry-goods houses have taken down the cloths and returned it to their stock. There was much tasto exhibited in the displays. Picturee of the late president were to everywhere, and often they were accompanied by appropriate legends. The outward embloms of in- ward grief were not numerous on Fifth avenue, but in the humblest tenements of the city they were to be seen in profusion, and some of them seomed to have been made at the sac- rifice of a black garment. Yee Lee, a Chinese laundryman in Ludlow street, had anengraving of the late president tacked upin front of his shop surrounded with crape. Below it is the following insoription, written by Yee Lee himself; “The enemy shoot him and dead he were anice man, The American peo- ple very sorry and pain on him, }‘lnw every house hang up the black thipg funeral for him. Good man the peo- ple obey him the name very fame for- ever. Bad man will be burn of fire," An uptown florist had the presi- dent’s picture framed in flowers of the most beautiful and yaried kind, with a dove resting upon the top of the frame. Beneath were these lines: “From scenes like this Colambia's grand- eur springs That makes her honored at home, revered abroad, I’rinE and lords are but the breath of st |nln'r< the noblest work of God. No expense sevimed spared in the outlay upon some buildings. Many were draped with good merino, and few with thick black cloth. In the great windows, also, they saw many fanciful arrangements of scores of yards of black velvet, white satin and crape. In one such window the light- ly-clad figure of a flying angel swung in midair, while next to it a white silk shaft, shaped like a monument, bore the martyr's name, More prodigal still was the outlay that produced four breadths of white and black ostrich feathers enclosing a steel engraving ot the late presideny. Clumsy hands worked at the city hall for four days to drape it, but made such poor work of it that Imre Kiralfy was sent for and told to proceed without reference to expense to wmake the decorations upon the building worthy of the city. The city hallis a long, low white marble building, the center of which is higlrer than tho wings at either side. The space between these wings is partinlly filled by broad steps, sur- mouted by a portico, formed of six- teen columus, supporting a balcony. Tho view of the faeade from any standpoint presents at least two sides of ono of the wings, one side of the other and nearly all of the central or main part of windows are separated by single columus, fect of the work may bo when it is known that the ,decorator has covered the entive front with black, leaving only the white marble window-frames and the windowsthem- solves exposed. By tacking light strips of wood wherever Fe intended to nail the cloth, ho has managed to place the material flat against the stone. The whole of the first story is thus rendered black, with the white arches over the windows and the white capitals and bases of the numerous columns to relieveat, Un- der each window is a black festoon and over the windows the wholo cor- nice is but half covered with cloth. But the chief pains have been taken with the grand entrance, and hers so much work has been done that the smaller details pass unnoticed, The front of every step in the stair- case is covered with a band of black, and black is skillfully worked in with the base of cach colunn, the columns themselves being all black, with fes- toons 50 arranged botween them that the effect of & canopy is produced. The balcony is hung with black, .re- lieved by shields containing white stripes, and all over the artist has built a smaller canopy of eight black columns, in front of which is a large painting of the late {(n'cs dent, and on the top of all a broken shaft artisti- o | cally draped. Behind all this, and seen through it all, the marble seems far whiter than before, Alove these decorations the gilt cagles in two carved coats of arms hold hroad sheets of black in festoons, white strips of black ch down from the roof be- tween the nppermost windows, Was there ever a sad o jon with- out its gleam of humor?
