SINGING sHAD.
Queer Fish That Are Said to Sere-

Queer Fish That Are Said to Sere-
made Residents Of Cape May.
Baltimore American.
The singing shad has been seen and
heard in the lower Delaware bay this
spring. 1t hasn't been seen in large
quantities, Of course, for the appear
ance of this odd fish in these waters is a
rare occurrence. Bat few of the sing
ing shad have enchanted the fishermen
since the season began. They come
from the South, and only when the
wind has died down AMI the water is
quiet. They come in schools, emitting
musicals notes as they swim along.
The sounds they III axe are soft and
something like an &c )ian harm. 1t is
hard to express. or rather initiate, on
paper the melody they sing. 1t runs
something like tbs: "Wee-ho, he hi
do de; weeho. die di dum."
This sound cannot be made with any
effect except when the shad travel III
schools. The singing of single shad
is too feeble to be heard above the rip
pie of the water. This year las been
the first, probably for a decade, that the
singing Shad has favored the fishermen
of Delaware bay. Capt. Arnold, one of
the oldest and most truthful OF South
that he had heard the singing Shad a
number of times in his piscatorial ca
reer. They are rare. of course. so far
north as this. Even When they do come
only old fishers are app to hear and dis
tinguisn them. We know about thems
and are more or less on the lookout for
their occasional arrival. They really
belong off the coast OF Bolivia and
Chilli There they are quite common.
All sorts of fairy tales are narrated
about them by South American fisher
men. The singing shad also breed inc
Japanese waters. The fishermen of
Japan are delighted when they strike
school of singing shad. They follow
them up reverently. because they be-
lieve the fish are inspired. They throw
them food and never catch or eat them.R
The singing shad is different from the
COMMONPLACE or roe Silad. 1t is not SO
large. and there is slight difference in
the formation of the mouth. Only an
expert fisherman can tell when he has
caught one of the finny songsters. Old
fishermen regard tile musical Shad as
prizes, AID do not send them to market
unless they are paid very high price
for them. 1t is estimated that they
travel I'D schools OF about 500. Their
singing is pleasant at first but soon
grows mOnotonOus, owing to the fact
that it IS constant repetition of the
same few sounds. Whether many of
these peculiar fishes ever go on up the
Delaware or move on to New York and
mingle with the plain everyday Hudson
river shad is not known. They lose
their identity when they get in with
other fishes. and it is doubtful if they
ever sing alone.

w. Ii. Brown. who has for the past
TWO years been employed by the firm of
j. Il. Elliott 81 Co. as salesman, was ar
rested yesterday by Detective John p.
Hoy on a charge of grand lal ceny
Browns business was principally out
SHE the store, and he frequently carried
valuable goods with him when he went
out without any detailed account being
made OF them in the store. Some time
ago Mr.. Elliott suspected that Brown
was not quite right and appealed to Chief
Henderson, who put Detective Hoy OH the
case. Brown was watched, and it was
found that he was in the habit of pawn
ing goods from the store. and employ
ing the proceeds in the pursuit of life
of gaiety and dissipation, his principal
vice being an uncomfortable fondneSs
for the game of ''craps." After his ar
rest Brown was put upon the rack and
confessed everything to Mr.. Elliott and
the detective, and during the day por-
ton of the goods were recovered. The
young man will have an examination

reference to the political situation in
Ohio. He said that the Peoples party

to see Mckinley defeated, by all means.

only he but the Republican party will go

Why, he goes blowing around that the
tariff of five cents dozen on eggs is a
great thing for the farmer. How does a
tariff on eggs help us out in Kansas?
Nc kinley's argument that Canadian
farmer takes his wheat to Buffalo and
takes home just theamount of the tariff
less than the American farmer, is nom
sense. Any one with horse sense knows
that Liverpool sets the market price of
wheat. Why would Canadian farmer
take his wheat to Buffalo? Why, we
