HATCHERY.

Goldfish Matching is especially attended to at
the Woods Holl station. The cod lays an
average of 100000 eggs year. By natures
methods not over per cent of these reach
maturity, for young cod are tender bite for
hundreds of big and hungry fishes. By
Baird's methods not over $4,000 Of the whole
100000 are lost Baird has improved on ma
ture
In the illustration is seen some of the
operations of fish Matching. Upon the table
are the Macdonald jars, with the siphon ar
rangement passing through and through
them. To the right are men receiving the
millions of fortified shad eggs and placing
them in the jars. To the left are seen other
workmen pouring into cans the young fish
already Matched. This is preparatory to
shipping. The young fish are called "fry."
Batches of them are sent all over the coast,
now here, now there, fron Oregon, Califor-
mia, Gulf of Mexico to Maine. The intention
Is to distribute the supply evenly. At these
different points the young fish are poured
into the coast waters, and left to sink OF
swim, survive or perish. They usually thrive
handsomely.

The First Shot at sumter.

Judge ]. NJ Crosson, a native of New
berry County, who graduated at the
South Carolina College about 1S40, and
afterward moved to Texas, in recent
sketch of Colonel George S. James, who
fired the first gun in the late war, says:
when q boy at Erskine College,
South Carolina, he ran off and Joined
the Palmetto Regiment en- route to Mex
leo, and for his gallantry was appointed
sergeant major of the regiment After
his return from the Mexican war he
graduated at the South Carolina Col
lege in the class with Professor Girard-
eau, now of Houston. He, with Howard
Caldwell, a promising young poet (now
dead) went to Arkansas, selling Ben
toms Thirty Years in the Senate.
Young James taught school of Indians
at Fort Scott, in Indian Territory. Then
he walked to Fairfield, where his friend
w. c. Wilson was practicing law.
Young James walked up to the landlord
at the hotel, saying it was customary
for guests to deposit THEN baggage, and
handed him his gloves. He at once OBJ
tanned a fine school and made many
friends. He was splendid scholar and
o magnificent man, both intellectually
and physically. While there his uncle,
Judge O'Neil, Chief Justice of South
Carolina, obtained for him the appoint
ment of First Lieutenant in the Third
United States Artillery, then Colonel
Worth's regiment. He was q spendid
shot with rifle, and while others used
shotguns in driving he always brought
down the bucks with u rifle. While
stationed at Fort Randall, IN Nebraska,
he resigned and returned to South Caro-
lima before she seeded. Upon secession
he was appointed captain of artillery,
and was stationed at Charleston. He
afterward led gallant regiment from
his native county-Laurens, South Caro-
lima. His color bearer, his cousin Will
lie Simpson, was killed because, though
surrounded and overpowered, he would
not surrender his flag. Colonel James
was killed at Boonesborough Gap at the
head of his regiment, which was annihi-
lated. He fell into the hands of his old
comrades of the Third United States
Artillery, who had him decently buried,
and preserved the watch and other
things upon his body, and sent them to
his brother in South Carolina. y

fectly saline, for there is hardly fresh
water spring within five miles of Woods
Holl We have here a safe harbor, with
eighteen feet of water at the dock at low
tide Moreover, we are handy to the rail
road station"
Among the most successful inventions for
facilitating fish Matching is the Macdonald
jar. A row of glass jars is arranged, with
siphons passing in and out of them. Through
these current of water flows continually. In
Matching fish the water must be constantly
arated and gently stirred. The Macdonald
jar accomplishes both these purposes.
There are now thirty-seven states and terri
tories that have fish commissions of their own.
It has been shown that there is one fish the
farmer may have fresh all over the country
the year around, except in spawning time.
Unlike the trout, it does not require running
waters, but will live and thrive in any pond
that is not stagnant. That fish is the German
carp. 1t was introduced into the country first
on large scale by the commission after the
Berlin fisheries exposition. At that great
show Of fish and its appurtenances the United
States took first prize, magnificent cup, pre-
sented by the emperor of Germany to Profess
sor Spencer F. Baird European countries
Unexpectedly discovered that in all matters
pertaining to toimproved fish culture the United
States was the foremost nation in the world.
When the commission began operations it
had no boat of its own, not even a catboat or
q catamaran to fish with. Little sailing sloops
and fishing boats were hired. Then as the
work grew, a small steamer, and then an
other and another were borrowed from the
navy department. Now the commission has
four steamers, all its own.

Hereditary Diseases.

A fallacious notion has somewhere
crept in that an intellectual man must
be below par physically, and that the
one faculty is necessarily cultivated at
the expense of the other. The old pro-
verb, mems sGaG IN corpore sGmo, has
been fouted as an absurdity. So much,
very briefly, for the first cause of race
degeneration; the second. and the one
to which this paper would direct atten-
ton, is the influence of hereditary dis
eases. This factor has never received
the attention it should have had at the
hands of the writer's on social science.
The races of which we have been speak
ing had little of this element to contend
with. The weaklings were either de-
liberately exposed and left TO die, as in
the case of the Spartans, or if they at
tanned maturity they were held in such
low esteem that they willingly kept in
the background. Look for moment
at our modern civilization, and mark
its Numerically opposite tendency.
Every day hospitals are being erected to
nurture the diseased and imperfect
specimens of our race, and every year
thousands of children are by skill and
care saved from the death to which Ma
ture would consign them. All this ac-
cords with our enlarged notions of
humanity, and reflects great credit on
the zeal of the philanthropist and the
science of the physician, but it exerts a
baneful effect on the race. To one who
has had access to any large city hospi-
tails, it is pi,iful sight to see the multi
tude of children who are tided over a
few years, and sent out into the world
branded with an hereditary taint, to
propagate their wretched breeds. The
limits of this paper will not allow any
extended statistics, nor the nature of it
warrant special discussion of heredi-
tary diseases. but there are two whose
effects are apparent to all, consumption
and insanity. The former, consump-
ton, using the term in its widest sense,
has for ages produced the most fright
full ravages. For example. in England,
from 1887 to 1841, of the total number
of deaths from all causes sixteen per
cent were from consumption. In Phila-
delphia, from 1910 to 1849, the death
rate was one of consumption to six and
half from all other causes, or about
fifteen per cent.--Dr. George j. Preston,
in Popular Science Monthly.

One of the Most Remarkable Campaigns
in American Political History.
The campaign of Robert L. and Alfred A.
Taylor, brothers, but rival candidates for the
governorship Of Tennessee, will become nota-
bly, historical. When many of the national
issues that we have now before the country
are forgotten, the Taylor brothers campaign
i'll Tennessee will be retained i'll political
"reminiscences. A novel feature of this frater-
nal canvass is the entire absence of personal
itterness between the candidates, who follow
oae another as speakers to the same audi
ences. But the part the violin plays in the
campaign is the episode that will be longest
remembered Robert Taylor it will be re-
membered "tiddled himself into congress" q
few years ago, but it was Alfred, the Repub-
lican brother, that introduced music into the
present contest. Els voice having failed him
he became alarmed that Robert would get
ahead of him on the stump, SO be gave the
audience tune on the violin. To offset this
Robert took to kissing oil the babies he could
find, which proving to be a disagreeablc con-
tract at best be abandoned it for the more
congenial violin playing.

Professor Baird's Work.
The United States was the first nation to
begin the artificial propagation of Goldfish. 1t
was done by the government fish commission,
at the head of which isthe accomplished Pro-
fessor Spencer F. Baird, the boss" so to
speak, of the Smithsonian Institution, at
Washington. Fish culture only began to be
attended to in small way here in 1858. It
is worth noting that it was not the general
government that began the work first, but
the separate states. Massachusetts, took the
lead. Not till 1871 did the general govern
ment yield to the advanced spirit in fish cul-
ture already moving among the states In
that year the United States commission of
fisheries was established by act Of congress.

Ignatius Donnelly carries into the literature
the same methods that he uses in politics, and
woe to the theory or author that comes
across his path. At his home he is dubbed
"Pugnacious" Donnelly. He is Philadel-
phian by birth and so was his mother, though
his father was an Irishnlan. He is now So
and well preserved. He was admitted to the
bar in 1858 and went to st. Paul, Mimi, in
1856 Three years later he was elected lieu
tenant governor of that state and reelected
in 1862. He was in congress from 1862 till
1868 He stumped the west for Horace
Greeley in 1872 He was elected state sena-
tor in 1878 His best known works are CAT
lantis" and "Ragnarok."
He is about to publish "a key to cipher
narrative hidden in the first folio edition of
Shakespeare's plays" which he claims to have
discovered, and which will prove not only
that Francis Bacon was the author of plays
attributed to Shakespeare but will also give
the motives which compelled Bacon topublish
the plays in Shakespeare's name. On the
correctness of the conclusions as to the Ba-
CONAN authorship of these plays Mr.. Donnelly
stakes his reputation. The book is likely to
create literary cyclone when it appears, but
Ignatius is at home in cyclones.
Another notable result of this convention
was the appearance of The Northwestern
Chronicle as supporter of the Republican

FISH COMMISSION BUILDINGS.

Professor Baird has been at the head from
the start. At first attention was given only
to the restocking of inland fresh waters with
fish. These were nearly depleted of the val
liable food fishes with which they teemed
when the country was new. Man destroys
wherever he touches in nature. Afterward
sea fishes were artifcially propagated, and
the final triumph of our scientific workers
has been the reproduction of shad and cod in
large numbers.
The work of the commission has grown on
its hands till it is now something stupendous
A permanent headquarters for its accommo-
datior has been established. This is at Woods
Holl, Mass, and appears in the Illustration
Woods Holl is situated "at the heel of Cape
Co.," as q writer puts it. This point
was selected because it is peculiarly
adapted to the Matching of Goldfish.
What America would be without its
Goldfish balls, that President Cleveland would
be without his horseshoe. 1t is very inn
portant, therefore, is the codfishery of the
Atlantic coast. OF the Matching of cod eggs
and why Woods Holl was selected for that
purpose, Professor Baird himself says: "The
water for such purpose as this must be per-
fectly pure sea water and as saline as any in
the ocean, nor should it be stagnant. After
searching all along the New England coast
from Long Island sound to Eastport we de-
cided that right here was the very best place
for our station. Here you see we are on the
point of the main land between Buzzard's bay
and Vineyard sound. The rise of the tides
differ in the two bodies of water, and SO for
the greater part of the day there is a power
full current running from the bay to the
sound, or the sound to the bay, through the
narrow channel between this point and Nau-
