Indian Fish Trap.

The chief item of food Of all Indians
living along the streams OF the Pacific
coast is the salmon that swarm into the
rivers in countles thousands. These are
caught in numerous ways and dried for
winter use. One OF the most effective
methods is that used by the natives liv-
ing along the Quiniault river, beautiful
stream flowing into the Pacific ocean
from the Olympic mountains, in Wash
ington. This device is an improvement
upon their more crude appliances made
possibly by their acquisition OF the
knowledge and inventions OF tine white
man, and consists of wier built across
the stream to prevent the salmon from
ascending, and trap for catching a por-
ton of the immense numbers thus col
iected below the obstruction. The wier
is made by driving posts about six inches
square into the bed Of the river across
the stream at intervals OF about six feet,
and bracing them solidly from below and
then setting in cross pieces about three
inches square at the top and bottom,
thus forming supports for the wicker
work, which consists of flames about 2x6
feet in size. made Of willow poles about
two inches in diameter, upon which is
woven net work of willow branches,
with meshes of sufficient size to let the
water drop through without interruption
and at the same time small enough to de-
tain the salmon below.
The river at this point is from two to
four feet deep and the wier is from six
to eight feet high. The net work is built
in sections so when there are no fish run
ming or no fishermen at work they can be
easily taken up and stored away, or in
case OF break be more readily replaced
The wier is simply to delay the fish and
of course renders the stream just below ii
alive with them, which is nov. and ex-
citing scene of itself. The fish are taken
by means Of a trap built just below the
weir by driving four piles in the shape Of
a square, fourteen feet apart The piles
are cut OF about fourteen feet above the
water and capped in and thoroughly
braced on the sides above the water. AT
the top OF each pile a pulley is fastened
with line running through it, which is
attached to corresponding corner Of q
drop net. The drop net is lowered to the
bottom Of the stream and when full OF
fish is brought to the surface by means Of
the ropes and pulleys above described,
the whole thing being worked from be-
low by Indians in canoes, and of u truth,
the ''emptying' of the net is a very
thrilling piece Of sport.
The weir and trap belong to the Indisns
in common, each family having it's turn
OF fishing. 1t is fair to say, however,
that the weir is only kept in place when
someone is fishing, and the hindrance of
the fish ascending in their spawning
grounds is not material West shore.

How TO FIT KEYS INTO LoCKs.-When
it is not convenient to take locks apart In
the event of keys being lost, stolen or
missing, when YOU wish to fit new key,
take lighted match or candle and smoke
the new key in the flame, introduce it
carefully into the keyhole, press it firmly
against the opposing wards OF the lock,
withdraw it, and the indentations in the
smoked part Of the key will show you ex-
actly where to file.

Mothers Home Talk.

Among the agitations of the day, equal
almost in Importance to the much dis
cussed "Silvei Bill, is the servant ques-
ton" 1t is not purposed to take up
just here the pros and cons of the subject,
as generally dealt with, in any way, but
to point out one or two things that seem
to have been forgotten or overlooked, SO
eager has each faction been to throw the
blame upon the opposite party, in the
present strained relations between mis-
tress and maid.
In bringing up ones children there are
just one or two things that the average
house-mother cannot afford to do-she
cannot afford to do all her own house
work, and she cannot afford to have a
nurse, as nurses are generally hired.
This all seems little paradoxical, but,
let us see if there be not reason in it.
We ought to be stronger am perfect
ly willing to concede that; but we are
not stronger, and that is fact not to be
denied. Where there is large family, or
even family Of four or five, including
the parents, the housework is no small
item, and the physical strength which
can successfully compete with that and
the family sewing, and have still time
and energy left for the higher pursuits, or
even the reading and conversation which
will keep woman abreast of the times
and make her companionable in her own
household, is rare indeed. By doing
without a servant, many a woman has
assisted her husband to swell his bank
account against a rainy day." but
would not one Of the rainy days, for
which the bank account is, alas so often
needed, the failure Of the health of the
wife and mother? when physicians must
come; when hirelings must take the
place Of the tender mother-would not
this day be "afar off?' If the mother
would reserve her physical strength, and
increase her mental strength, in her
earlier womanhood, would we have SO
many cases Of shattered nerves and phys
ical wretchedness-so many cases of pre-
mature decay of some Of our brightest and
best?
Economy is Wealth. Don't tell me
that know it! But just what is econ
omy? Is it economy to walk and use up
ones last pair of shoes, when, by riding
for half what new shoes would cost, we
can save them Every human frame is
a natural storage battery for the electric
fluid Of life. Is it economy to use up all
this fluid during the first few years of
ones life, leaving our latter years with
no fund Cor fund so small as to be prac-
tically money to draw upon? Clearly, it
is the economy that wastes instead of
saving. No mother can afford to grow
away from her children, or let them en-
tirely pass out Of her path. Many must,
perhaps, because there are many hard
paths to travel in this world; but where
it can be done, think long and seriously
before you do your own drudgery for the
sake OF saving money, at the expense OF
that far more vital good, the welfare of
your children as good citizens. Home

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, April 81. - The
crime for which Ben Ely was hanged
here was the murder of j. w. Meadows,
a railroad conductor, in January 1899.
In addition to this crime he murdered
and robbed an old farmer and his wife
in Douglass county, Ca, about five
years ago, shot policeman in Atlanta,
and, in December, 1888, robbed and
murdered an Italian peddler near this
city.
The murder of Meadows was brutal
crime. Ely and four companions found
him drunk on the street late one night,
and carried him out into the woods two
miles from the city. There they robbed
him of everything he had. and after di-
viding the plumber crushed his head to a
pulp with heavy stones. Then they con-
cealed the body, and it was not found
for three weeks.
Three months later Ely was arrested
for highway robbery and made full
confession of the Meadows murder.
He gave the names of his accomplices,
and they were all captured soon after
wards. One of them, Gilbert Lane,
was hung Feb, IA another has been SEN
fenced to life imprisonment, one dis
charged, and the other has not been
tried.
Elsey was only about 80 years old,
but had been in the business of robbing
and numbering people for six years. He
was daring and desperate criminal,
and confessed four murders the day be-
fore his execution,

Connecticut chicken thieves have hit upon

discovery of the scheme is due. When he en-.

chickens apparently suffocating. Closer ex-

yards of fish line trailing from the chickens
beak. Then it dawhed upon Mr.. Palmer tina,
