in the House, so that his variety of
utterances an public matters may

IS AN OYSTER A FISH?
Difference of Opinion In Legal (lag
In England.
Whether or not an oyster is a fig'
was a question raised before the Col
chester Area Assessment Committe
when the Essex County Valuatint
Committee sought to have the Coln.
Oyster Fishery assessed. The oyste.
fishery is, a lessee from the Colrh
ter Corporation who from time . it
memorial have enjoyed the rich
and privileges of rho river. Con•,'c&
for the company, Gerald Benham
said he would admit that an oyt6r
was not only,a fish •but a super fist
Frederick Levy, who appeared 1'0
the Committee, said that from ti.
'scientific point of view it was not ret
tain that an oyster was a fish, M.
legally it had been established
long ago as Richard II., that an r;•
ter was a fish. If that was so a 0i
was something that swam in a eel
ery, and a fishery was something tlt:
could bo assessed.
The Committee held that the fisi.
ery was subject to assessment
they fixed a figure of ,f3,500 on
property. Mr. Benham gave
of appeal.
MODERN ART.
Artist and Lditor Seo Sketches I'relit
Different Angles.
An amusing story as told by Sti
Philip Gibbs concerns an artist wit
was sent abroad by the editor of t
London illustrated paper.
His job was tomake sketches . of
the country and the people. It ,was
however, his first experience, and i1 •
made a mess of it, the sketches t1'
sent home being very poor, and a
times quite unintelligible.
The editor took him to task on h'
eetnrn, and told him that if he couic•
not mss,s a recognizable sketch c
anything it Weil.: have been far bet
ter to have indicated in writing wha
the picture represented.
"Take this one, for instance," hr
continued, picking up one of the ar
tist's sketches. "Singe you were ap•
parently in such a hurry that you
hadn't time to draw it more careful"
ly, why didn't you write above it:
'This is a Windmill'? Then our peo-
ple would have known what it v. ahs
intended for, instead' of whicb they
had to guess."
"But it isn't a windmill.; it's a man
on horseback," replied the artist.

Trolley Car's 50th Birthday
Fifty years ago, the first trolley
car was placed in operation when
John Weight. of Toronto and an as-
sistant named Vand.erpole developed
the idea of the overhead wire and
trolleypole, states the Canadian Na-
tional Railways Magazine. Storage
batteries previously in use had. been
I found ineffecient, uncertain and were
much too heavy, while third -rail ex-
periments gave little promise of their
ultimate success owing to current
losses and danger to the public, prob-
lems relating to insulationbeing lit-
tle`understood. It was with a third
rail car that had been sent to the
scrap heap from an American experi-
mental laboratory that Mr. Wright
and his assistant won success with the
wire and trolley pole. His tramway,
built from Bathurst Street to 'Strach-
an Avenue, Toronto, carried 20,000
passengers to' and from the grounds. ' of the Toronto Exhibition of 1883
without a delay or mishap of any
kind. This first tramway attracted in-
vestigators from all over the Amer-
ican Continent and in a few years Mr.
Wright's invention had spread far and
wide.
