A nntumllst who observed devil fishes In action says Hint he thought, no more diabolical creature could be imagined. They resembled enormous bats nnd in following one another around in n circle raised the outer tip of one of the long wlugllko tins high out of tho wntcr In n graceful curve, the other being deeply submerged. They might be seen now gliding down with n flying motion of the wings, sweeping, gyrating upward with a twisting vertical motion marvelous in its perfect grace; now they flashed white, ngatn black, so that ono would say they were rolling over nnd over, turning somersaults. While swimming along tho two great arms or feelers of the devilfish nrc whirled about in constant motion, like the tentacles of a squid. When these tentacles come In contact with anything they close upon It It is generally believed that this clasping, although nt times doing considerable harm to fishermen nnd their boats, Is largely nutomatlc and that, upon tho whole, tho devilfish Is timid rather than n fighter.
