Starving Els hermen.

The German fishermen in the Baltic,
who subsist only from their fisheries,
have had narrow escape Of being
starved to death owing to an imperial
fishery law recently passed prohibiting
fishing during spawning time. One
day delegation headed by a gigantic
fisherman from near Dantzic, arrived
at the palace Of the crown prince in
Berlin and requested an audience. The
spokesman appealed to the crown
prince as the protector Of the German
Fishery Union, and asked for his in
prevention. The crown prince inquired
Of him if they had applied to the pro-
vincial governor at koenigsburg, who
was known to be most amiable man.

of the party, s'can not distinguish day

other things. that there was grow
ing on the pebbly shore as lit
tie as there was on the floor Of the
princes room; that he was considered
. rich man because he was able TO keep
COW; that the gales prevalent on the
coast prevented them but too often
from going to sea. and that. therefore,
the fish were disturbed little enough.
etc. The crown prince promised to say
. good word for them, and gently limited
that the audience was at an end; but
his herculean interfocutor coolly went
on: "Your imperial highness, can not
leave without some written promise to
that effect. We are poor folk and have
barely been able to scratch money to-
gether for the long journey. Ishouldn't
dare to go back without line or two,
lest those that sent us would not be-
neve had seen you.' The crown
prince smiled, wrote q short note,
caused telegram to be sent to Koenigs-
burg, and gave orders that the men
should be well treated and fed and
their return journey. paid for. Through

modified sc rs to exempt the fishermen
of the Kuifan Nehrung from its strin-
gent provisions. The fish there have
no specified spawning time set aside for
them; on the other hand, no fishermen
in that section were allowed to starve
