English Writer Tells
“Tall” Fish Stories
The winter gurdeu of the Savoy
hotel, London, was the scene of a
double tragedy a few weeks ago.
For mauy years two goldfish, named
Ernest and Eva, made their home
In the fountain there. Guests from
all parts of the World admired them,
for the fish were famous on account
of their tricks.
As soon as a cork was put in the
water, Ernest would leap over it in
u flash of gold, and sometimes
would turn u somersault in the air,
One day, however, a thoughtless
guest flicked some cigar ash Into
the fountain, and the fish were
poisoned.
Another notable golfish died re-
cently. His name was Peter, and
for fourteen years he lived in the
garden fountain of St. Audrew-by-
the-Wardrobe, London.
Legends of long-lived fish are nu
merous. One of the most interest
ing concerns the “Holy Trout of
Kllgeever.” This fish lived for
many years in a well in the west of
Ireland. Tradition says that, when
French troops landed there more
than a century ago. they ran short
of food, and certain soldiers decided
to have the trout fried for dinner.
When they put him on the pan,
the trout disappeared up the chim
ney and found his way buck to the
well, where lie lived for many
years.—London Tit-Bits.
