Protect the Fish,
For The CITIZEN -

For THE CITIZEN
The Destruction of the few faa ln
ur streams in the last two years by
he traps, seins and baskets, simply
presages their total DETERMINATION.
If it continues much longer this
luxury will be unknown to those
who live remote from the markets
for Gulf and Sea fish. The de-
struction is a short sighted policy
and the protection of the fish in our
streams ought to be demanded by
every one who loves the sport and
enjoys this most excellent dish.
But for the bloody "war OF ex-
termination'' tor the two last years,
our chief streams would now be
we'll stocked with the cat and the
carp at least; the only two varie.
ties that will prosper in our streams
now, as their character has been
changed. Every body knows that
ihey are not so well adapted to the
GAIN fish as they used to be. The
deleately favored red horse and
the buffalo, which in old times
fiourished so abundantly, have al
most succumbed entirely to the
snatch. hook; tie mud and the slug
gishness of the summer. Bot if the
cat and the carp could have the pro
lection they need, and which every
considerate man aught to demand
here would soon be enough of them
to afford sport for every sportsman
in the county. These varieties
would have increased rapidly in
be last two years If they had been
allowed to do so, ard Richland
| would have been alive with them,
as it is, there is doubt if there is
enough lets for stock, ynd there is
gloomy prospect for the future, If
there is to be continued in our
creeks ian oSen mouthed pit of de-
struction' every two hundred yarSs
and an omniverous seine playing lie
di!ioent vocation at every turn.

and juicy as they are, must 90.
The snatch hook is memorable

Of their rights as the trapper nd

play is a jewel and who believe that

protection which is our right.
Your next Legislature should be
Instructed to give the protection so
much needed, for we should have a
wiser policy than that which per

we have witnessed for the last two
years.
No one will complain, for every

How to Develop the Lungs.

The exercise which I have found of
most value in developing the lungs may
be described as follows: Standing erect
as possible, with shoulders thrown back
and chest forward, the arms hanging
close to the body; the head up, with lips
firmly closed, inhalation is to be taken
as slowly as may be, at the same time
the extended arms are to be gradually
raised, the back of the hands upward,
until they closely approach each other
above the head. The movement should
be SO regulated that the arms will be ex-
tended directly over the head at the mo-
ment the lungs are completely filed
The position should be maintained from
five to thirty seconds before the reverse
process is begun As the arms are grad
ually lowered the breath is exhaled
slowly, SO the lungs shall be as nearly
freed from breath as possible at the time
the arms again reach the first position at
the side.
BY these movements the greatest ex-
pansion possible is reached, for upon in
SEPARATION the weight of the shoulders and
pectoral muscles are lifted, allowing the
thorax to expand fully, while upon ex-
halation in lowering the arms we utilize
the additional force of this pressure upon
the upper thorax to render expiration as
complete as possible. These deep respir-
ations should be repeated five or six times,
and the exercise gone through with five
Or six times day. It is hardly neces-
sary to remark that the clothing must in
no way interfere with the exercise. In
some cases this exercise is moro advan-
tageous when taken lying fiat ON the
back, instead Of standing. In this position
the inspiratory muscles become rapidly
strengthened by opposing the additional
pressure exerted by the abdominal organs
against the expanding lungs. And, on
the other hand, expiration is more per-
feet and full on account of the pressure
Of these organs. This is an exercise now
advocated by several leading vocal teach
ers Of Europe. L. Davis, NJ. D.

A CHASTITY FIND.
The Mutilated Body Of Negro Found in
Richland Greek.

The mutilated and decomposed
body of a negro man was found in
Richland creek Monday last, about
two miles south of Pulaski, by Mr..
P. T. Cole. who came TO town i'm
mediately and notified Coroner Jas.
j. McCallam, who at once empan-
cled a jury of inquest and viewed
the remains. The body was cut to
pieces and sewed up in two differ
ent sacks, the head beng missing.
The sacks were weighted down with
rocks and a large butcher knife,
which we learn has since been iden-
titled, was found in one of them.
DR.. Butler, who examined the body,
testified that it must have been ID
the water for several weeks.
Larkin Lancaster, colored, was at
once suspicloned of being the MUIR
derer and the body was supposed to
be that of Jack Dickson who disap
peared from the nelghborhood OF
Pisgah, in this county, several weeks
ago. Lancaster had made threats
against the life of Larkin and when
a dead body was found In that
neighborhood it was supposed to be
that of Dickson. This proved not
to be Dickson's body.
The mutilated body was brought
to town and, it being first Monday
large crowds of people viewed it
and considerable excitement pre-
vailed. The body was identified b
Dlckson's mother. There were sew
eral others present who identified
the body IN different ways.

For THECIyIzRN:-
There is an army of small boys,
and some that are not SO small,
black and white who are armed
with guns, double barreled and
single short and long, the old army
and what not, who are killing
every thing that is considered game
in the shape of squirrel, hare, part
ridge, dove everything, in fact, that
is feathered from the woodpecker
to the smallest sparrow that is large
enough to afford a target for the
rapacious shootest. How long far
mers will be content to see THEN
farms ravaged by this irresponsi-
BILE horde no one can tell, but it is
a short sighted policy that allows
such wide destruction of both game
birds, and insect destroying birds
so valuable to him, and SO essential
to many of the food crops he grows
The farmers have all the laws they
need They owe 1t to themselves
and to everybody else to enforce
them, and to begin before the har-
vest is ended. A FARMER.

against glass or a catsup bottle, and
while he devours his lunch he also de-
yours the news at the same time. When
he finishes one side Of his paper he lays
down his knife and fork long enough to
expose fresh side to his view, when he

GOV. TAYLOR ENDORSED
Extracts from Leading Democratic Papers.


We have no sympathy with the
movemeutof a few tricksters snd
politicians in favor of Gov Taylor
Issuing a certificate to Hon. Creed
F. Bates for Congress. The cry of
fraud and the excuse for throwing
out one of the Dayton districts is
too flimsy. We are Democratic all
through, all there is of us, but We
never can consent to aid such q
movement. The matter summed up
is about this: We together with ali
of the Democratic party in this
Congressional district got sill the
votes we could for our man, Mr..
Bates. The friends of Mr.. Evans
did the same. They got the largest
number of votes and consequently
Mr.. Evans should go to Congress.

the action of Coy. Taylor and says
that the question is matter tor
