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.
