pretty new autograph album-and 1 was
very proud of it the binding was 50 gay

A Georgia Fish Pond.

Sam Subers, says the Macon, Ga =,
Telegraph, has fully demonstrated the
fact that small fish pond dug iii the
middle Of garden is source Of much
genuine satisfaction and profit. OF late
years Southern people have directed
much attention to this branch of indus
tTy, if it may be 50 called, and all over
Geo, gia can b. found these immature
ponds of water, in which are raised myri-
ads Cf iSh at a ccSt next to nothing.
Four years ago Mr.. Subers had his
little pond dug i'll his garden at about the
cost Of digging an ordinary well. He OBJ
tanned few fish from Mr.. Singleton. Il
few from Mr.. Wippler, and gave a
colored man 81 to bring HIM a black
Dream from the swamp. Then he shut
his eyes for year and half, and waited
for the fish 10 grow. And they grew
grew in size and quantity. The table WAS
supplied twice week, and he has kept
up the programme at a trifling cost
When the Fish Commissioners came
along with their canisterspf German carp,
aud the papers were full of their excel
lent eating qualities, he procured few
To stock his pond. They dived into the
mud, and his hitherto clean pond began
10 assume the appearance Of a mud pud-
de The carp did not prove 81 valuable
an eating fish as the breamS having much
the flavor OF catfish. But the Dream.
Of which the pond has millions, is accepta-
bic to all palates.
The expense Of feeding ,ese fish is really
less than feeding half 4 duzcn chickens, TO
say nothing OF having the chickens sI,Ien
.lr. Subers gave about twenty five cents
for box Of old wurm-eaten crackers, ana
hey furnish excellent feeding. \ few
mulberries, with an occasional trea; in the
way If corn bread crumbs, is all that Is
necessary, aud the fish 60 on growing and
multiplying world without end
The fish pond Is an institution to be
encouraged. Every man who owns a gar
den can easily dig one, md as it keeps the
surrounding ground always moist, it viii

this law regard 1t as an unjust sectional diScrm.-
nation. They say that If the District or Columbia
Is under one form OF government the laws for all
parts OF the District should be the same, that
laws are different for different sections, how can
there be one government? AS far as the tobacco
dealers are concerned, 1t is this diSCrimin ton
that they most complain about, and would

touching certain newspaper criticisms Major
