THE BERING SEA COURT.

PARIS, April 20-Mr. j. G.. Carter of the
counsel for the United States resumed his
argument today before the Bering sea
court of arbitration. He described the
habits of the seal. as given in the report of
the American commissioners appointed to
investigate the subject. He conteGded
that the report of the British Berng sea
commissioners on the same ject had
been written with the object of defending g
pelagic sealing, aud was therefore uure-
liable. The British arguments based on
the report of the British commissioners
ought TO be rejected therefore by the
tribunal. as they were supported only by
inadequate evidence
Baron de Courcelles, president of the
tribunal, suggested that the argument of
the United States would have been
strengthened ii the senate had already
passed a law restraining American citi-
zens from peiagic sealiug
Mr.. Carter replied that the United States
would not be likely to take the trouble to
prevent American marauding, merely to
leave the field clearer for the marauders
of other nations.

FISH nATcHING BY rHE MILLION.
Process by Winch They Are Turned Into
the Like

Process by Which They Are Turned Into
the Lake
You can see fish Matching by the mil
ion in the northeast corner of the gov
eminent building at Chicago, where the
fish commission has its display. There
are myriads of yellow and pike perch
breaking out OF their tiny globular gela-
tlnOus eggs there every day. Some Of
them are fed to big fish in the acquariums
and some are turned loose in the lake.
The process OF the fish hatchery seems
simple enough, but the commission peo-
pie want it understood that it took long
time TO perfect it.
The impregnated eggs are brought into
the exhibit In big cans nearly every day.
They are put into glass jars and slow cur
rents of lake water, at the natural tenn
perature, are kept flowing slowly
through them. The eggs look like a
mass of translucent jelly globules. One
jar will contain as high as 456, 900 perch
eggs. 1t takes from twenty days up
ward, according TO temperature, for the
eggs TO hatch.
Each fish, as it. matches, seems to con-
sist of tiny black spots which are eyes
and an infnitesimal strip of gelatine
which is the rest of the fish. They can
all swim through great rate right from
the start, and as the young Try are drawn
OIL through the escape tubes of the jars
into watts that contain 100000 or more
exceedingly fresh fish, they seem to be
always on the go.
OF the eggs that are being Matched now,
those of the pike perch, known generally
g "wall-eyed pixies" come from Lake
Erie. The yellow perch eggs come from
the aquarium. The commission expect
soon to be Matching black spotted trout
eggs, brought from Leadville, Colo, and
later in the season shad, lake trout, and
California salmon.

Algrettes as ornaments.

The aigrette is tuft Of graceful thin
feathers taken from a kind Of heron called
egret; and not only are these poor birds
killed expressly to furnish ornaments for
ladies' bonnets aud hair, but they are
killed at the time when they ought espec-
ally to be overwhelmingly, during the
breeding season. They build their nests
close together, and the feather hunters
look for these breeding places. The best
time TO attack them is when the young
birds are fully fiedged but not yet able to
fly; for at that time the solicitude of the
parent birds is greatest, and, forgetful of
their own danger, they are most read :
lily made victims. They hover in crowd
over the heads of their despoilers, their
boldness making it as easy as possible to
shoot them down; and when the slaughter
is finished and the few handfuls of Gov
eted feathers plucked out, the poor birds
are left in heap to tester in the sun in
sight OF their orphaned young, that cry
fer food and are not fed.-AnimGE World.

THE GREAT FAIR.
sculptured Art Surprises at the Worlds
Fair.

Seulptured Art Surprises at the Worlds
Fair.
Harper's Weekly: One OF the first de-
lightful surprises of the fair is the i'm
mense population of inhabitants whose
flesh is plaster, whose sinews are fax,
and whose bones are iron; a population
as varied as the history, traditions, arts,
virtues and passions OF mankind. 1t re-
calls the days OF Greece, when men
thought in marble, and bequeaJhed ma
terialized fancies to all the after time OF
the world. These imposing Columbian
people Will not all outiive the days of to-
day, although some of them are almost
beautiful enough to deserve eternity.
No one could help wishing that the
great statue of the republic, modelled by
Mr.. French--a majestic woman, who
stands against the colCmned peristyle
looking over the sea-could live forever
and give to the future of America a ma
tional idea of purity, simplicity and
greatness. But whatever else these pias-
ter gods are or are not, they are too many
- too many for even the lavish bounty OF
a dream. They cluster in porches, they
stand in long professions along the
lengthy facades, doing their decorative
part with dignity and seriousness; they
pose upon pedestals, they crouch in
architectural corners, or gayly greet you
from cornices and other colgns of want
age; or they are hattened into bas-relief,
like skins of statues stretched upon some
rare plain surface.
In truth, all the bigness of the buildings
is needed to repress and keep them in
subordination. Gigantic Inhabitants of
q city OF dream, they people 1t so abun-
dainty that the small human element is
almost an impertinence or. at most, some
thing unnoticeable in the grand company
of its own creation.

fl selecting or purchasing
your advertising space. By
that we mean, don't insist on
getting the best and paying
the least money for it. There
is such a thing as being too
shrewd and too driving in
a contract. It
has become a custom with
some managers of mercantile
institutions, to listen very
attentively, admitevery point,
and then offer to close the
deal at just one-half the
figure quoted by the adver-
Using agent. If the solicitor
says, "that space with posi-
ton guaranteed, will cost
you $1,000 for the year, the
so-called shrewd bargain
driver often says, ''he will
give you $50 and close the
deal at once" The result is,
very often the solicitor goes
prepared to drop in price, and
consequently accommodate
the shrewd ID manager.
Understand your business;
comprehend your wants; be
capable of estimating the
value of an article and if you
WANT it, buy it and pay the
figure quoted.
