Fun for Fishermen.

Block Island, the fisherman's paradise, has
fairly Outdone its previous record this sea-
son. Never have striped bass been so abun-
dant as at the present time, and bass fishing
is the all-absorbing topic just now. There is
intense rivalry among the sportsmen, each
being determined to win the championship
the result of which has been some splendid
catches. Mr.. Miner of Providence Tuesday
caught The largest fish of the week, weighing
As pounds Mr.. Tripler of New York and
Mr.. Edward Earle of the same city, guests
at the Ocean View Hotel, brought in several
Wednesday, weighing from 25 to AL pounds
each. Mr. Miner had a photograph taken OF
bis three best caught Tuesday-the 45-pound
one in the centre, and a 40-pound one on
each side, with rod, reel and gaH hook over
all, from which card is suspended, bearing
the inscription: zone hundred and twen-
ty-five pounds. Enough for one morning.
The largest bass ever caught here weighed
106 pounds Novices find solace in bluefish-
ing or in bringing well flied baskets Of
perch from the lake. From the quantities
of bluefish shipped from the island this sea-
son they must be more abundant than at any
other point on the coast. Sword-hshing has
been better than for years, large shipments
being made 70 the Boston market daily.
Tuesday Is were landed, weighing from 200
to 400 pounds each.

Prairie Hav for the EAST

A correspondent of the New York Tribune
writing from Des Moines, Iowa, says: ''In
the northwestern part of this State are thou
sands Of acres of wild prairie covered with
a luxurious growth of succulent and nutrit-
ious grass. Rich companies have been
formed to market this grass and hundreds
of mowers are now shearing these broad
acres. The grass, properly cured and very
tightly compressed into bales weighing from
60 to 100 pounds. bound with wire, will be
sent to New York and other Eastern mark
cts. The traffic was begun last year in a
small way as an experiment, and proved a
success. This season transportation compa-
nies have provided hay cars TO meet the de-
mands of what will be a heavy business.
All the work of securing this hay is done
by machinery, except feeding the bailing
presses and fastening the wire bands. The
cost per ton of cutting, curing and bailing
ready for shipment is about $3.50. 1t is as
serted that when properly cured this hay
will reach Eew-York in mid-winter as fresh
and green in color as on the day it was
bailed; that placed side by side with the best
timothy and clover, before horse, the prai-
rie hay will be eaten and the other left; and
that horse will keep in better flesh with
less grain when fed on this hay than when
fed on cultivated hay. This hay can be de-
livered and sold in New York at price
much below that of cultivated hay"

THE INGREDIENTS OF BEER
The Kind and Amount OF Materials En-
ployed Hereinafter to be Reported to
Revenue Collectors

The Kind and Amount OF Materials En-
ployed Hereinafter to be Reported to
Revenue Collectors.
WARRINGTON, Aug. 6.-The revised form
upon which, after the 10th instant, brewers are
to make their returns, will give the public
more knowledge in regard to the ingredients
OF beer than il has been possible heretofore to
obtain. Under the law regulating brewers,
they have been required to keep two books
one containing the record of the amount manu-
featured, sales, ETC., and the other the kind
and amount Of materials used They have
not been required to forward transcripts OF
their materials Ibook to the collectors, though
the law provides that the books shall always
be open to the collector or any authorized
agent. ID practice these books have been very
imperfee,ly kept, and many brewers have not
kept them at ALL The use of glucose, corn,
rice and various decoctions is believed to be 50
general that several months since new rev-
sion OF form IL (the one upon which brewers
make their monthly returns) was approved and
sent out, and the first returns under it must be
made to collectors on Friday Of this week.
This form not only calls for statement under
oath OF the more usual ingredients other than
malt and hops, such as corn, cerealine, rice
grape sugar, glucose, maltese and syrup, but it
requires q sworn statement OF every other
adulteration and the amount used OF each
article. This return is to be made monthly, 20
collectors in duplicate, and one copy is to be
forwarded by collectors to the office of internal
revenue. Each brewer is required to make
oath that the statement OF the ingredients
used In the manufacture of his beer sis true
and correct in every particular" 1t will thus
be seen that hereafter the composition of beer
will be known except where it is concealed by
perjury. The penalty for making false entries
Isl under the existing law, a forfeiture OF sll
liquors made and all the apparatus used in
their manufacture, O fine ON conviction Of not
less than $500 and not more than ST ,000, and
Imprisonment for a term not exceeding year.
The penalty for neglecting to furnish the re-
quired returns is fine of $500 for each offence.
Recent official reports from that beer centre,
Cincinnati, show that six of the brewers there
enter corn on their books as one OF the arti-
cles they use. In one case the amount reported
is ns high as 20 per cent. Another reports the
proportion as ii per cent, another as 10 per
cent, another eight, another seven, and one
reports it as low as one per cent. One estab-
lishmenu reports the use OF cerealue and all
the others report no corn used The Brewers
National Association approves OF enforcing
the use OF proper ingredients, ard 1t is expect
ed that the use of the new form, even with the
slight supervision OF breweries which the gov
ernment now has, will go far toward compel
ling those brewers now using deleterious
substances in the manufacture OF beer to
abandon the fraudulent practice.

What is Trade?

One cannot but entertain feeling of con-
tempt for what takes on the high-sounding
name of 'trade" when great produce houses
like Armour, Planklnton & Co. and David
Qows & Co. admit that the telegraph strike
has cut off half their business. OF course all
these firms do a great legitimate business in
buying and selling provisions, but the busi-
ness of watching the quotations every Is
minutes and swapping back and forth things
known as lard, pork and bacon, which for
all the dealers know about them might as
we'll be dice, is not business at all, although
great many men live by it. Their existence
divides the titles to the visible stock OF
goods among much larger number OF peo-
pie than formerly and it is open to doubt
whether the economic evil is not counteract-
ed by the natural operation OF the laws of
value and exchange, but that these people
are engaged in ''trade" or that "trade" seri-
ouslv suffers when these fellows are turned
out to grass is all nonsense. Wheat and
provisions have not lost value, nobody who
wanted to buy has been refused, no ships
have sailed empty for lack of cargo, nothing
has ceased to grow.-Springlield Republican.

Opponents of n south Carolina Act
Committing Outrages


CHARLESTON, August 6-For several
months in Lexington county, S. c., the oppo-
nents OF the stock law have been committing
deeds Of violence. The torch and shotgun are
being used with considerable effect, and in
different parts Of Black Creek township barns,
stables, and farm buildings have been burned.
So alarming have the depredations become
that delegation OF farmers have petitioned
the Governor TO protect them against the in
cendiaries. ThesGovernor has directed the
sheriff Of Lexington county to take all neoes-
sary steps to have the perpetrators OF the out
rsges arrested. All this violence Is the direct
result OF the passage Of the stock law, which
requires all persons to fence in their cattle
In the disturbed section many OF the people
are poor and have heretofore largely depended
on ,her stock for living. Under the stock
law they are cut off from all pasturage, not
owning amy and of their own, and have re-
sorted to voencs to get even with their
more thrifty neigbors. Under the old law all
cattle ranged at large and all crops were KEEP.
nudpr fence In 1873 the benefits of the stuck
law were tested in Chester county and proved
Of such advantage TO farmers that gradually it
spread, by townships and then by counties,
until nearly ever county in Upper Carolina
had adopted the law.
In 1882 the law was made general, to 90 into
effect in October last. u was strongly opposed
IN many counties, and was quite a formidable
question ia the last State campaign. At the
last session Of the Legislature efforts were
made to have the law modified, but such were
the conditions imposed upon the sections desr-
ing exemption from the operations OF the law
that they have not been adopted. In Lex.
ington, Beaufort, Berkeley, Coleton, Rich
land, aud Chesterfield counties the law has
borne with especial hardship upon poor people
heretofore engaged in stock-raising, and il is
expected that the outbreak in Lexington will
result IN agrarian outrages in other parts Of
the State. Already there have been several
ineendiary fires in Richland county, and u
number Of the old Kuklux blood-curdling
notices have been served upon the advocates of
tho stock law by those who feel aggrieved,

THE STRIKE.
President Sloane Refuses the De-
mands of His Operators.
The Railroad Men Fail to Go Out.

New York, Aug. 6.-The following is a
letter sent the Telegraphers Brotherhood COM
mittee by President Sloane of the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western railroad
/ am not aware that our operators are dis
satisfied with salaries or hours Of labor No
demand 80 far as 1 am informed has been made
Tor any change either Knowing aS / do
many Of our operators / hesitate to believe
that you fairly represent them all Ia your letter.
Many If not most of them have been years in
our service. Their pay has been increased and
promotion made without solicitation. Having
more than 80 years been actively employed as
executive officer closely watching all these
great interests, and sympathizng with the
various changes of labor and capital, / feel the
communication you have sent me mistake on
your part. Therefore / decline to accede to
your request.
The bin Of grievances demands an increase
OF $40 per month on every salary; that no
salary be less than $50 per month; that extra
pay be given for Sunday work, and that all
telegraphers discharged for refusing to take
commercial matter be re-employed. The de-
mands are for all telegraphers, whether mem
bers of the Brotherhood or not.
The strike of Delaware Lackawauna oper-
ators, reported to have been ordered at noon to-
day did not take place. Many Of tha operators
are station agents under bonds.
The Western Union committee says the
operatots are under orders to 90 out this after
noon.
Western Union officials say there is no
change In the condition OF affairs and every
thing Ia going smoothly.
With the exception Of few short wires be.
tween here and Albany everything is in excel
leutcondition. The strikers allege that most
of the dispatches in this city were transmitted
by messengers.
The United States Senate committee on
labor and education met this morning and ad-
iourned until the 18Th lust. They intended to
begin an investigation into the present iele-
graphic strike, but the witnesses, among whom
were John Campbell, John Mitchell, Eugene
O'Conuer aud other leaders could not attend
owing to additional duties devolving upon them
in consequence Of ordering off OF the railroad
operators and postponemeut was requested
on this account,
The threatened strike OF railroad operators
announced to occur to-day did not take place
CHICAGO, Aug. Cup to o'clock no tele-
graph operators on the railroads out OF this
city had quit their keys. All lines here have
apparently guarded against an emergency and
have arranged TO run all trains by printed
time tables, If the number Of men going out
should make this necessary.
WASHINGTON, Aug. Git is reported here
that the telegraph operators on the ShenaL-
doah Valley railroad struck this afternoon.

The Fulda,s Quick Passage.

The steamship Fulda, of the North Ger
man Lloyd, which arrived at her dock in
Hoboken early Friday evening, made the
quickest westward passage on record from
Southampton. She left the latter port at 8
p. M, on July 20, and passed Sandy Hook
at $3.50 Friday afternoon. Her corrected
running time was few minutes over eight
days. The best previous westward passage
on record from Southampton was made in
June last by the Werra, OF the same line,
which crossed in days, hour and min
utes The same vessel has made the east
ward passage in about days and % honrs.
Capt. Leisl stated that the recent voyage of
the gulda was favorable one in every re-
speet.

STOPPING WORK.
A General Strike in the Connellsville
Region Threatened


Region Threatened.
PITTSBURGH, Aug 6.-Another general strike
oil coal miners and coke drawers is threatened
in the Connellsyille region. Quite sensation
was created in Mount Pleasant on Saturday
night. The organizers and officers of the new
miners associatiob at Morewood mines were
discharged Friday, and the men at work, nun
beTiDg fully 4C0, came out on strike. On Sat-
urday evening a procession numbering about
$50 men, women and children, the families of
the Strikers paraded the town, with martial
music, bagneIs, etc. After marching through
the principal streets the column halted on the
pablie square Ia front of the National Hotel,
aud an address was made BY w. I. Barkley,
general organizer of this district. He said
that the men did not demand any increase in
wages, bat simply wanted the operators TO
recognize tile right OF their employees to
organize Tor mutual protection. After giving
three cheers for the cause in which they we're
enlisted, the meeting was adjourned.
The procession was a very quiet and orderly
one, no boisterous conduct being INDUCED in.
The rumor is current in town that the strike is
to serve double purpose, viz, to compel the
recognition of their organization and TO have
wages raised to 80 cents per wagon for digging
and 81 per wagon for drawing. One thousand
men ara out at Morewood, Alice and Mcclure
mines, and should q general strike ensue,
which is probable, $500 men will be thrown
out OF employment.

Anxious to Follow WEBB.

LocKPoRT. N. Y, August 6-Capt. j. ID.
Rhodes of Salamanca, swimmer OF s0me
note, having life preserving armor, patented
by himself, who in 1877 dived from a staging
1C9 feet high near the ferry landing on the
Niagara river, now writes to Superintendent
Nelson, Prospect Park, Niagara Falls, that he
will use his armor and give $1,000 bonds to
swim the rapids and whirlpool, doing this al
any time between now and September %. He
desired to make arrangements with tho Park
Company, offering to deposit $1,000 with them
as security. Nelson wrote him declining to
be party to the suicidal attempt. Rhod es
then replied that he should come to the falls,
aud ii the authorities would not give him an
opportunity, he would cross 10 the Canadian
side from Capt. Webb's starting point and
show TO the world what his life-saving armor
will do. He says: "It's not for any notoriety
or money that shall attempt it, but purely TO
demonstrate that the armor / wear will with
my ability aad strength carry me safely
through. shall come to the falls within nine
days and make my point and carry out my
plans, and the first person who shall retard
my progress 1 will take under my arm and
give him BATH An oil barrel, half filed
with water, then headed tight and decorated
with flags, went safely through the rapids
this morning, and at no time was entirely out
