An Obituary Editor.

Two or three years ago ! was attached to
| the Morning Aigts the only paper published
| in our village and during my engagement
we employed as an assistant editor young
man named Drinker. When Drinker began
| his duties the manager said to him:
"See here, Drinker, among other things, l
| want you whenever you see in exchanges
| or any where's good biographical sketch Of
any prominent man to clip iJ ont and
put is away, SOS when he dies, you un-
derstand, we can rush it out as an obituary
| article, rs it were.'
Drinker went to work, and about two
months afterwarG some well known man
died. and examined the obituary bureau
| for the purpose of obtaining his history. 1t
was not there, but I discovered that the
| insidious Drinker had stored away in that
mOrtuary receptacle one biographical
sketch of John Wesley. collection Of an
ecdotes abont General Putnam, and an es-
say upon The Life and Services of john
Hancock
commenced with Drinker upon the sub
| ject.
"Mr. Drinker," l said, after calling his
attention to the article about the father OF
Methodism, "you certainly must be aware
that John Wesley died long before you
| came into this Office
"Nn-no " exclaimed Drinker, with a look
of panied surprise in his face. ''Wh-wh-
what! John Wesley dead! That great
and good man gone! Thunder! Why, it's
too bad. l had no idea of such thing.
What shock il must have been to bis
family -
"And as for General Putnam, Drinker,
it is perfectly absurd for you to pretend
that you thought he was alive, you know.
Come, now. that's too much
as he dead, too! Well, well. The fact
is I've been living down in the country for
two or three years, and haven't kept the
run of things. And so old Putnam's dead
That old man. Strange, strange, how we
are passing away
"And, Drinker, you certainly can't be such
an idiot as to have put away this article
about Hancock with the expectation that
he would die again. You know he did die
once. Why, Drinker, he died about 10000
years ago"
Come, now" exclaimed Drlnker exMt-
ingly, 1--WE got you there. All ali Died
10000 years ago. did he, smarty! You
know too much. You think everybody's a
fool but yourself! Dead, is Now, what's
the use of your trying to stuff that down
me, when l know well enough that the
Democrats talked about running him for
the presidency at the last election Oh,
pshaw You amt fit to write for any paper
that's got any sense"
Then Drinker was discharged. | didn't

to the grave with the firm conviction that

Preparing Fish for Winter.

1t is estimated that at present there are
stored in New York city about 250,00U
pounds of valuable fish in frozen state for
next winter These stores will not be
touched while freshly caught fish can be
brought to market. Terrapin is one of
the luxuries of the table. Those who
catch them have to hunt for them as FAR
south as Galveston and Savannah, Ga, and
Charleston, S. c., furnish supplies, and
some very fine terrapin are caught IN the
Chesapeake Bay, and are eagerly purchased
at Baltimore, where they have been sold as
high as SIS per dozen In order to get
anything like supply for the New York
market, leading wholesale fish dealer
found it necessary, several years ago, to
lay in stock during the summer, at which
time, in consequence of their voracity, the
terrapin are more easily caught. As it
is necessary to preserve the terrapin alive,
he caused a large pen to be constructed on
the shore of Pleasure Bay, near Long
Branch, about 100 feet square, constructed
with fence Of planking s inches wide, q
inchos thick, and of ordinary length. The
bottom and shore was artifcially construc-
ted so as to give it a gradual slope, and the
shore was made Of white sea sand, while
the bed of the pen was composed of or
binary sea mud and sand. Here for three
or four years past the fish dealer stored his
terrapin, sometimes having as many as
10000 terrapin in the pen at one time.
As the food they appear most to enjoy can
be easily had, the cost of maintaining the
pens is small while the revenue, should
be scheme prove moderately successful, will
be very great, as even good fat terrapiI
bring in this market from S0 to SIS per
! dozen.
