sells were not lucky, several of them, fail
ing to take any game at all.
No one tried to saw any oil, bone only
being wanted. 1t is the decline In the
demand for whale oil that has caused
the gradual r~epopulation of the sea with
oil producing c~etaceans, several OF which
have during the summer just passed APP
preached 30 near points on the ATLANTIC
coast as to be the object of shore fisher
mems efforts.
When the gray haired men and women
who read this newspaper were boys and
girls, whaling was one of the most inn
portant of human industries. It was
still an occupation of profit for many
thousands when the civil war broke out,
although its decline set in as soon as the
discovery and refining of Pennsylvania's
petroleum began to bear the oil market.
Today there is not one whaling ship a1oat
where there were twenty 40 years ago;
but, as the opening paragraph of this
article shows, the industry is not dead
by any means. For whalebone no sub
~stitute has been found, and accordingly
right whales and bowheads-the two
species producing bone in large quaint
ties-are still eagerly sought. Captain
John Smith was probably the first white
whale fisher in American waters, for it
is recorded that in 1914 he pursued a
school of whales off the coast of Maine.
In the palmiest days of whaling the
New England feet numbered over go
sail. Then the sperm whale of tropical
waters was esteemed the most valuable
prize. New Bedford was the chief. and
Salem, Provincetown, Nantucket and
others were famous whaling ports. The
ships that sailed from their wharves
1oated on the waves of. every sea, the
oil which was tried from their captures
illuminated the drawing rooms of every
cline, and the whalebone they procured
was the stay of women in all land where
the fair sex followed fashions DEGREES.
The men who went down into the sea
in ships after whales were a hardy lot.
None were shipped who did not seem tc
be possessed of unlimited nerve and
power of endurance, for these qualitie:
were pretty certain to be required before
the close of a voyage. Every bright, en-
terprising youngster who shipped hoped
with some show of success that in time
he might be a whaling captain. Blu
even if promotion did not follow rapid.
the incentive to hard work and darins
were greater to seamen on whale ship
than on merchant vessels, for beside
his wages every man received a share o
the profits, and even the humblest knew
that he would have quite a sum of none.
to his credit at the close Of a luck,
cruise.
At the end of every season the news
papers Of those days would bristle wit
brief paragraphs telling Of conflicts bt
tween men and whales, of shattere
boats, of drowned ~harpooners and ses
men. The books wherein marvelou
tales of whaling life were told in deligh
fully plain narrative form, illustrate
by queer, crude wood cuts, were eagerl
read in every part of the country.
The truth of the occasional tales
ships being sunk by whales has ofte
been called in question, but it seen
likely from the mass of evidence tn,

much like the blunderbuss of other days,
the breech of which is furnished with a
heavy rubber cushion to prevent too
great a recoil.
San Francisco and New Bedford r
now the chief ports, and there is a per-
manent station at Point Barrow. Fifty
six varieties of whales frequent Amer
lean waters. Eighteen species only have
been closely studied. The teeth of bow
head and right whales furnish the sub
stance known as whalebone. These
whales subsist on small fish and other
sea organisms, which they procure by
filing the mouth with water, closing the
Jaws and forcing the water out. The
food is entangled in the curious fringe
on the teeth's outer edges. Every bow
head yields 473 teeth, and as good whale
bone has often been worth from $5 to 90
a pound, every tooth is valuable. Last
winter a whaling company of San Fran
cisco had 81 ,OO0, 900 worth of whalebone
| on storage in a small building where it
was guarded as carefully as if it were
| gold and precious stones. OF course
there was no fear that any of it would be
| stolen-the weight and size of the pieces
preclude that-but it is a favorite food OF
rats, and besides is very infammable.
The utmost precautions, therefore. were
taken to keep off rodents and fire.
Paris, Bremen, London and New York
are the chief markets for whalebone, In
the order mentioned. Whale oil is still
secured sometimes, although its price Ii
now down to 10 and 90 cents a gallon.
Time was when it would bring 90 and
%. The most profitable voyage ever
made by a whaler before the eason Of
1928 was that of the steamer Mary G.
Hume, which returned to San Francisco
in October, 1892, after IN absence of two
years, during which time 81 whales were
taken. The net profits were $500, 600
bone only being brought to port, owing
to the low price of oil.
A most valued prize of the whale fish
erman is ambergris, a secretion founs
in the stomachs of morbid whales
This substance when Of a high qualit,
is worth rather more than its weight il
gold, and one Of the most disappointe'
, men the sun has ever shone upon was
whaling captain, who last year let a re
! markable piece Of ambergris weighin
: 80 pounds slip into the sea. Some ivor
Z is also obtained by whale fishers.

Zoo Offers 500 For u Specimen.

The superintendent of the Philadelphia
Zoo Offers 500 For u Specimen.
A new snake has been discovered by
reedbird hunters down in the Neck, and
all the small boys and many men are
searching night and day for a specimen
in order that they can secure the 800
offered by Superintendent Brown of the
Zoo for the capture of the first reptile Of
the species.
The snakes at the Zoo are fed on frogs,
and last week MIR. Brown learned from
the collectors that a snake about 8 feet
long with a horn on the end of its tail
had been playing havoc with the frogs
down in the Neck and had made the
frog market very tight. The hunters
say that the snake has a way of gather
ing in a whole frog family at q gulp, and
it was in this way that the new snake
was discovered.
On Tuesday last James Martin, who
lives near the end of Twelfth street, was
out in the swamp with his gun and dog.
He had good luck, and his pockets were
filled with fat reed birds and q brace Of
plover. He started home, but his atten-
ton was arrested by a peculiar noise,
and his dog .'stood" as if there wal game
in sight. Nothing appeared, but the dog
seemed to be transfixed. Martin inves-
tigated and found about q dozen frogs
ON a small hummock in the swamp and
a large snake was grabbing them right
and left. Martin says that the snake
had a very large mouth, was fully 8 feet
long, and that there was a horn on the
end of his tail which he used to kill the
frogs. After striking the frogs he would
proceed to eat them. Martin was SC
~dumfounded at the unusual spectacle
that he forgot he had his gun with him
and the snake wriggled off.
Superintendent Brown says he will pay
800 to the person who brings him 9
snake that comes anywhere a being
like the one described by Martin.-Phil

A Life Line Suggestion.

1t is evidently a veteran sailor who
makes the suggestion that, as a vessel
always goes ashore to leeward, and the
life line shot from the shore must there
fore be fired against the wind, and with
all the difficulties which this implies,
every vessel should carry a supply of
rockets, which, attached to deep sea log
line and signal halliards, would connect
them much more speedily with the
shore. -Boston Transcript.

fact that the problem Of silent machinery
has been solved by q firm in Vienna.
This firm is manufacturing cogwheels Of

not, require ~lubricating. On the other
hand, they are very expensive, and ara
consequently unlikely to coms into gem
