WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE advent of the
Lenten season has caused a sudden hiatus in
the round of social gaites. The President
has shown himself facile princeps among
the social leaders, and the politicians are
rather disposed to rejoice that Lent has be-
gun, thinking that some of the long-delayed
appointments may now be made, such as the
District commissioner, the OHIO district
Judge, the civil-service commission, and 9TH

the Ohio matters seems to please Speaker

for recognition, but are unable to agree upon

For several months past the fish wardens
have been making war on those who fish lille
galy in Cobbosseecontee lake. Several have
been convicted and fined. Now the farmers
who dwell around the shores of the pond pre-
pose to retaliate. They say the law has been
so manipulated and fixed that legally they are
unable to catch any bass. The close time does
not expire until July lst From that time un-
til the end of July is the most busy season Of
the year with them. In fact their work
presses so hard that they have no time for rec
reation and fishing. On the other hand it is
asserted that anglers from the city who have
an abundance of time, commence operations
Immediately following the expiration of the
close time and ere the farmer can find time to
angle the fish are either caught or frightened

farmers say il they cannot catch fish before the
expiration of close time, they will put stop to
the practice which some people from the city
follow, of spending their Sundays on the lake.

the fog kept many from going. The Cadets
went down in uniform, marching to the boat
headed BY Chambers Baud. At the island
rink they gave one of the finest drills they
have ever given, embracing company move

by the two little markers was heartily applaud

principal attraction. The damp weather made
