DIFFERENTIATION OF THE WHITE
FISH.

The whtefish is going out. 1t is now
quite stranger in Lakes Michigan,
Huron, Erie, and Ontario, and the m
merous Whitefsh Bays along the chain
belle their names. Lake Superior is
now the only place where wbitefish may
be caught in large quantities, and almost
the entire supply of this fish now comes
from that source. But even Lake Su
perior can not long stand the drain to
which it is being subjected, and the
uhitetish will soon be known there no
more.
Eight or ten years ago whitefish weigh
ing between five and eight pounds were
considered the average Lake Superior
hSh OF that variety; now the average is
2nly one pound, and barrels of half
2ound whltehsh are shipped to markets
by the Lake Superior fishermen. As
fhe wnltetisn becomes more scare the
fishermen are OF necessity compelled to
oe satisfied with the small Try; and after
2 few years more have passed they will
be forced to cease shipping entirely, for
want of fish.
Tae Unsuitable pound net is responsible

nercliess work on Lake Superior. The

when they strike a pound net they fol-

A QUEER DOG FIGHT.

Every body in Atlanta has noticed the
Italian, Americas Vespucius, aud his
basket full of counterfeit dogs.
The dogs are so fearfully and wonder
fully made that they almost growl at
each other.
Cats are frightened into epileptie fits
by these dogs of clav.
An impounding officer was only kept
from putting them into the dog wagon
because the shrewd italian had painted a
collar and tag on each of their necks.
Saturdays. Americas Vespucius fines o
larger sale than on other days, and last
Saturday evening he filled his big basket
with big dogs, little dogs and dogs
three sizes, and started up Peachtree
Street, smiling and happy. He found
few customers below the First Metho
dist Church, but just as he passed OPP
posite st. Luke's Cathedral he met with
one who took his wares by wholesale.
An ugiy-looking bnli dog that was not
we'll sighted the fictitious dog that
Americas carried in his hand; and there
was trouble. The bull, with growl
and snarl made rush at the vender
and the latter tried to defend himself
The emente attracted the attention of all
the other dogs in the block, and by the
time the trouble was ended the dogs
had all skunk off, leaving the hull
master Of the situation. Americas had
fled, leaving his basket and the remains
of q dozen counterfeit dogs, assorted
sizes, scattered along the pavement.

HAW PONDS GOINGS AND COM
INGS,

atlanta Constitution. Haw Pond is
about seventeen miles east of Cordele,
and is perhaps one of the most wonder
full natural curiosities in Georgia. II is
situated in a low place, with hills on
every side sloping down to it. Indeed it
is down hill for miles going to the pond
from any direction. Just at this time
every year the water gradually goes down a
few feet. Then there is rush OF water
tremendous rear, and within few
minutes every drop of water disappears.
This has happened for years, and 1t has
never been known to prove dlsappolut-
meut to those who go to witness the dis
appearance. On June ID, about dozen
Cordeligns left for the pond. They car
ried fishing tacle in abundance, aud
speut day and night catching any num-
Der Of the finest specimens of the funny
tribe. They net about fifty others who
had gathered at the pond to fish and
wait for the water to disappear. Where
the fishermen dropped their lines to the
depth of ten feet Thursday night, there
was scarcely a drop of water Saturday
morning. In day the water had dis
appearing completely. For miles aroun
the ground is said to be ununstable and
Liable at any moment to sink. Only
few weeks ago the bottom dropped out,
and now only the tops of the trees can
be seen above ground. Every year large
crowds from the surrounding country
gather to witness the disappearance, and
this year there were perhaps one humid
red and fifty people there. In the fail,
when there is rain in abuulanca, aud the
streams are full Of water, Haw Pond fills
up and waits for the spring tial'. when
it disappears again.

GLADSTONE AS A SPEAKER

Of late years, saws a London letter to
the Philadelphia Times Mr.. Gladstone
has developed an astonishing way of en-
phasizing his remarks by assulting an
unoffending brass bound box on tho
table of the house. To reach it requires
no little effort, but for all that the "grand
old man" is not to be denied the pleasure
of hammering that box. Trembling in
every nerve with intensity of conviction,
and entirely regardless of the pain that
must follow, he stretches across tie sea
of blue books and brings down his
clinched fist on the lid with all his force
when he wishes to emphasize the climax
of his speech. When he is excited he
stands pace back from the table, with
feet spread out fanwise, and beats one
hand upon the other for several moments
turning round every now and then to
address his own followers. OF course, his
voice is not what it was, but by reserv-
ing it and by discreet habit of never
sitting out debate he has hnsbauded a
strength that puts many of his younger
Colleagues to shame. On great occas
ions be invarinbly arms himself with a
phial of egg-nogg, which he drinks at
convent intervals, to the infinite diver
sion of an astonished gallery. Unlike
Lord Beaconsfeld. who was always not
ed for his dandifed get up, Mr.. Glad
stone is rather careless about his attire,
but he seldom appears without pink
rose in his buttoa-hole.

QUEER THINGS THAT ARE PA
TENTED


There is claim in the patent on the
Lords prayer, the specifications being
that the repetition of the same rapidly
and in loud tone of voice" will cure
stammerng.
Among the odd inventions are chicken
hopples" which walk with the chickens
right out of the garden when she tries to
scratch: ''the bee moth excluder," which
automatically shuts up all the beehives
when the hens go to roost; ''the tape
worm fsh-hook," which speaks for itself;
the educational balloon" a toy balloon
with map OF the world on its surface;
"sidehill annihilators" stills to fit on the
downhill legs of horse when he is
ploughing along hill side; and the "hen
surpnser," device that drops the newly
laid eggs through the bottom of the nest
with intent to begllile and wheedle the
hen into at once laying another.
One of the latest patents is an auto
matte bath tub, which starts the hot and
cold water at a given moment in the
morning to which it has been set. main
tains exactly the right temperature OF it
by graduating the flow of water, rings a
bell, when all is ready, and two minutes
later. suddenly drops the sleeper's pill
low about foot and turns him out.

SMALL FRUITS DURING DRoUGuT.-I
have found three things essential where
irrigation cannot be employed, says Z.
Y. Mnnson:
First deep loaming SANDY preferable
soil, upon red or yellow clay subsoil
twelve or twenty four inches below.
Secondhand in hills or narrow matted
rows-never broad and thicnly matted
Thira-Frequent, thorough, shallow pul
verlzatiOp, or cultivation of soil with a
hoe rake or cultivator, never going over
three or four inches deep. In the grow
ing season. and especially at the time
when drought is likely to commence, the
stirring of the surface sh )uld be done
just as after each rain as the soil can be
readily pulverized. Ii the soil bakes
and remains cloddv or hard after rains,
it needs fhrous manure or a mulch Of
rotting straw and compost heap manure
to give porosity to the surface. But the
best aud cheapest mulch is rich surface
soil, kept loose and porous by frequent
stirring.

SToRKs IN HOLLAND. Everyone knows
that the stork is almost supersttiously
beloved by the peasants of northern
Germany and the low countries. and that
iron supports upon which he may build
bis nest are set On cottage gables in the
belief that where stork has bis brood
fire will never come. Nevertheless,
travellers are often surprised wheu they
see Row tame the great birds become
following the agriculturists through the
field and fnrrow, and often sleeping on
the tall red leg close to where he is at
work and within sound Of the rumble of
the passing railroad train. So fond is
the Dutchman of having storks about
him, indeed, that he makes provision tor
its nests even in the center of bis bulb
fields. Here one may often see slender
poles some twenty or thirty feet in
length. supported by braces, and bearing
at the top a small round platform simil-
arly strengthened. on these the storks
build their nests and here they perch,
like sentinels, protecting the beautiful
crops.
