the West New Jersey railroad. The
director Of the colony Is Professor Fl. L.

graduate Of the Polytechnic Institute
Of Zurich, Switzerland The 5000 acres
bought with the Hirsch fund are divid-
cd into farms Of thirty acres each. On
this thirty acres each man Is expected To
support himself and family. for no man
Is allowed to take farm unless he u
married. The Hirsch fund helps the
helpless, and bachelors are supposed to
DO able to shift for themselves. But not
even to the married colonist is the little
farm to be given as q charity. The ex-
lied Russian Jew whoi s TO learn TO live
by farming must pay 500 for the thirty
acres. IF he cannot do this, however. he
is allowed to settle upon it and pay after
he makes the money of it.

exactly the kind Of settlement any state

Haven Steamboat Company Laid to
Rest in Grove Street Cemetery Yes
terday.
The funeral services over the remains of
the late James H. Ward were held at his
residence, 9 University place, at $50
o'clock yesterday afternoon and wore
largely attended. The services were in &C
cordance with the beautiful aud impressive
ritual of the Episcopal church and were
conducted by Rev. DR.. Edwin HARDWOOD of
Trinity. There was large display of
floral tributes, prominent among which was
a magnificent anchor from the officers and
employees of the NewHaven Steamboat COM
pany, of which the deceased had been for
nearly quarter of century the efficient
agent. Another of the most notable and
most beautiful floral pieces was very
elegant massive pillow, tribute from
Smedley Brothers, Peck & Bishop, Ber-
nard Brady, Hugh Plunkett and others
who contract for the carting of the Steam"
boat company.
The bearers, who walked on either side
of the hearse, were D. N. Moore, ] r. Hin
man, David A. Clarity of NewYork, E. S.
Barber, steward of the Northam; J.W. Car
ter, cashier at the Belle dock Office; Miles
L. Rowe, clerk at Belle dock Office; Will
liam E. Morgan, freight agent, and Captain
O. P. Tucker of the Elm City.

UNCLE SAM,S FISHES.
How They Are Distributed Through
the Country.

How They Are Distributed Through
the Country.
[From the Philadelphia Times.l
Fishing is, no doubt, one Of the most
pleasant of amusements when one has
good luck And those that are fond of
the sport would scarcely fail to feel an in
terest in the work of the United States
fish commission.
This branch of our government occupies
in Washington a square, brick building,
very plain in its external appearance. On
the first floor are long rows of tables,
upon which large glass boxes or aquari-
ums are placed. These boxes are prettily
decorated with sand and little grottoes of
stones and fernlike plants That grow in
water.
Within the tanks are little fishes darting
about-perch, bright sunfsh, flashing
gold ones-fshes of all shades and hues.
On other tables are tall glass bottles
filled with eggs in the process of Matching.
These jars are only from foot and half
to two feet high, yet they are capable of
holding each several million fish eggs.
When the eggs are Matched, which occurs
in few days time, the young fish are
drawn off into another bottle by aid of a
siphon. Then, being placed in large cans
capable of holding about fifteen gallons of
water, they are shipped into distant parts
of tho country. For this purpose a spe-
cial car belonging to the commission is
used.
The object of this service is to breed
fish in order to supply some of the waste
from those caught and also to stock rivers
with new varieties. For instance, in
some rivers salmon have never been seen.
Now those little fishes are brought and
placed by the commission in these rivers,
and in few years the water gives boun-
tiful supply of them. Thus different
varieties are carried to all parts of the
country and the rivers of the different
states kept from becoming depopulated.
The eggs Matched in the building are
drawn from the fishes caught in the Poto-
mao and afterward released. Thus the
fish is still suitable for food, and the eggs,
which would otherwise be destroyed, are
used in multiplying the fish supply of the
world.

WHO WILL BE PRINCIPALe

Little Doubt Entertained That Mr..
Thomas Will he the One Select
ed.
At present it looks very much as though
Mr.. Isaac Thomas would be the one select
ed by the board of education to succeed
Mr.. Whitmore in the principalship of the
high school. Mr. Thomas had at the meet
ing Monday four firm supporters, namely,
the chairman, Mr.. Graves, whose son was
at one time pupil of Mr.. Thomas, and
Messrs. Strong, Hemingway and Plunkett.
It is understood that another member of
the board Is now in his favor. His
chances, it is stated, are made almost GER
tain by tbs withdrawal of Mr.. Haywood,
who has accepted another offer.
Said member of the board: A more
desirable candidate for the position than
Mr.. Thomas would be difficult to find. He
combines with his scholarly attainments
rare aptitude for teaching which has been
trained by wide and varied experience.
he has already served two years, 1886 and
1887, in the High school as chief of the
classical department, and therefore, in tax
ing the position he would be from the be-
ginning conversant with the situation and
surroundings. Pupils of his at Yale have
invariably distinguished themselves by
taking high rank, which was made possible
by the careful preparation received.
He was also principal for Q time of the
Winchester school
