what IL was, but as published In yesterdays STAR

a lump-nsh or alump-sucker. The p-culiar fioun-
der, also mentioned In yesterdays STAR. Is brown
on both sides and has a white head IL was cau0ht
In seine near Pfney Point. Black bass cauohI in
the Potomac are on nearly every fish stand To-day
Many dealers handle North Carolina chubs which
are sold Tor Potomac bass. There Is an abundant
supply OF North Carolina shad said a dealer fhis
morning. which will have the effect OF MAKING Pc
tomac shad cheap when they appear In any num-
