THE DIFFERENT TIP-UPS.
Still another original device was the use
OF small bells attached to the lines. The
Vugging at the line of a good sized fish
made the bells ring merrily, but a snow
storm came along aud filed the bells with
snow 50 that they remained silent and the
Hsh escaped. In Wisconsin the ice fishers
Iasten lath in the ice so that it stands up
llgnt at one side of the hole, The line is
passed over a notch in the top Of the lath
ana hangs down in loop, the end of the
Inc being fastened 10 the middle Of the hath.
q, piece Of red flannel is attached to the loop.
,Wnen a fish pulls at the line, the rag is
nois.ed to the top of the lath, giving the sig
"a TO the watchful fisherman.
y y, Tue plan of signaling is reversed at Lake
Champain. The fish pulls down the flag
instead Of hosting it. A reel is made out
ol pune one half inch thick, 3 inches wide
ana 10 inches long. This is placed aero $
sne mole. with tue line attached, some slack
ueInS allowed to remain on the ice to give
Iue tsh play when hooked. A timber twig
aoout feet long is stuck into the ice
near the hole, aud loop in the line is placed
over the twig. A piece of red flannel fas-
Veneo TO the loop serves as a flag, and is in
view until bite on the line pulls the sig
lal on Of the twig. This style Of tip-up has
me advantage Of attracting attention whom
ever there is a bite, whether the fish is
caught or not. The tip-ups that drop
9ack into place when the fish escapes
from the hook, and fails to attract attention
unless they happen to be seen at the instant,
VINE good in other respects, require more
Watching. There is danger II the bait be-
ing taken off the hook without the fisher
mans knowledge A good way to tell when
yne minnow is on the hook and alive. is to
attach cork or small piece Of wood g
lhe line where it enters the water. The
minnow will keep this bobbing around on

And there is as much hard studving done
in this school as in any in New York, even
if the pupils are horses.
Chief S aw of the London fire depart
ment, who has seen the school, says it is a
splendid institution. and Mr. LAVAL, who
was sent from Paris a few years ago
20 study the methods Of the world-fam0us
fire department of New York city, was 50
struck with the school that he recommended
and secured the establishment of a similar
school in Paris
The school in New York educates horses
for the fire service only. II is more inn
portant institution than most persons may,
at first thought, imagine it to be. lntelli-
gent horses are almost as indispensable as
are intelligent men. A stupid, a slow, or
balky horse may at times cost the loss of
thousands OF dollars and perhaps many
lives. The delay Of two or three seconds in
getting fire engine out Of the engine-h0use
sometimes gives a fire an impetus that IS
unnecessarily damaging TO life and proper
ty. The horses turned out from the school
are warranted TO be strong aud intelligent,
and to have n thorough Knowledge Of their
business They never balk, they are never
lazy, and are in every respect reliable, be-
ing sound Of wind and limb and more than
intelligent.
This New York horse school has been IN
operation since 1882, and in that length Of
time has graduated some 400 horses.
There are employed in the fire service In
New York nearly 500 horses. These supply
the ffty-fiye engine-houses OF the city, the

ACOLLEGE FOR HORSES.
How Horses in the New York Fire
Department are Taught.

(COpyTtght 1881
NEW YORK, Dec. THAT is the best
educated horse in New York. He is tho
most Intelligent horse that ever came out of
school,"
The speaker was a broad-shouldered fire
man who stood at the door of a down town
engine house. The handsome roal which
stood few feet away ready to jump into
mis- harness seemed to know what was being
said, for he twisted his head and arched his
neck in the proudest manner. A moment
later, under the direction of the fireman,
he went through a wonderful exhibition OF
fast Harvesting, showing almost human in
teligence. He practically harnessed him
self, and did it so quickly that the eye could
scarcely follow him.
What the fireman said of the horse was
true He had been to school. from whence
he graduated with distinguished honors.
There GRE many interesting things in Ne"
York, but there are few things more inter
esting than the school from which this
particular horse graduated 1t is situated

As winter sport, fishing through the ice
has many attractive features. A days out
ing in the crisp cold air Is exhilarating and
bealthful in the extreme. A follower of
the sort can bid defiance to dys-
pepsia and most of the ills that flesh is hei
u, and aside from the physical benefit, he
can, if he has good luck, supply his own
table with excellent fish and have some to
spare for his friends.
The paraphernalia of summer angler
rods, reels, leaders, flie' and nets-is no
required for the winter sport Phe expense
of all elaborate outfit is accordingly saved.
and as the finesse of the anglers art-the
casting of the fiy-is not employed. tho-c
VINO are not experts can enjoy the sport
The apparatus necessary consists of about
forty short lines, provided with strong
hoots, and attached TO a reel made out of
piece of wood. Then a tip-up is required
for every line that IS to be set. This is the
contrlvance that signals the fisherman when
a fish is caught.
There are dozens of ways of making tip
ups Every ol,i fisherman thinks he knows
Ii tie more about them than anyone else.
and will take great pains to inform every
novice inst how the tip-ups should be made.
One Of the oldest and most popular meth
DDS is to place a round stick fiat on the ice
so that it reaches across the hole. Then
cut Stuck with crotch in 1t. One limb of
the crotch should be in hes long and tn
other 70 inches long. Attach the line to the
longer one, and place the shorter so that it
will fit over the cross-stick with its butt
resting on the ice and having a red rag tied
to It to serve as a flag When there is a bite
tle flag goes up and notifies the fisherman.
Another device is made out of half inch
una board. A piece IS inches long and Ia
perlng from 3 inches wide at one end to
inch wide a the other is cut out. A three
quarter-inch hole is bored in the piece of
wo ID about s inches from the small END
a small stick is passed through the open ng
and 1t is placed across the hole in the ice The
ban i, thea attached to the small end. A
bite tips-up the larger end, which may be
painted red SO that it will the more readily
attract the eve of the fishe man. An in
genious sportsman at Lake Hopatcong.
who believes in having some fun while fish
ing uses the ordinary jumping jack of the
toy stores. He buys them In lots Of fifty at
time and suspends them from slanting
sticks fastened firmly into hole in the ice.
The line to which the hook ard minnow are
attached is fastened to the string which
wo Ks the legs and arms When pickerel
TAKES mold of the hook the contortions of the
jumping jack are so terrible that the man
on duty astes no time in getting there to
take the fish off.

TIE views of the leading English papers
on the subject of American tariff have
been lavishly given in this country. The
general impression conveyed is that the
English people are clamoring for the
passage of the Mills bill as a sort Of God
send to stimulate dropping British trade.
We have received a copy of the Shelf
field (Eng.) Daily Telegraph, one of the
leading provincial papers, which doesn't
take such a rosy view of the situation. In
its issue of July 25 is the following edi-
torial article: SHOULD the Mills tariff bill
become law in the United States, the
effect will not be favorable to the export
ing manufacturers of this country. Right
lY, Mr.. Mills scouts the idea that it is a
free trade bill, as free trade is understood
by the degenerate successors of Mr.. Cob
den. 1t grants no special privileges for
foreigners. 1t aims at creating only
greater advantages for Americans. Nor
is it on the lines of Mr.. Cobden's free
trade. 1t does not concede the principle
Of free exchange between nations. 1t will
enable American manufacturers to obtain
cheaper raw materials, thus assisting
them to become greater exporting com
petitors with ourselves, but it retains for
them their home market"
