a Prosperous Fishing Season Probable.


The fisheries in the Chesapeake bay and
tributaries have opened with rush.
The herring are as large again as those
caught last year and well divided, about one
half being roe fish. The shad, rock, perch
and other fish are of equally good quality.
While the fishermen are delighted with the
wonderful abundance Of the catch, they are
not less pleased with the unusually good con-
dition of the fish, for high condition insures
ready sales in spite of great stocks in the
markets. Dealers are thoroughly impressed
with the outlook for one of the most prosper
Gus years the fisherman has ever known in
Maryland.
From the very early date at which the catch
has begun a long season in anticipated. Al
ready arrangements are in progress for the
daily shipment to distant inland points of the
surplus which is expected. If the judgment
of old fishermen is correct. Baltimore will add
not little to her business this season in the
shipping of fish.
Pike and yellow perch have been biting
freely ia Middle river. A gentleman at one
fishing caught four dozen yellow perch and
nine pike. At a subsequent fishing he caught
forty-nine pike. The gudgeon is now being
taken in nets at Herring Run, and anglers are
making their arrangements for gudgeon bait.

covered lying dead at the bottom of a steep
embankment along the side of the road, which
was not protected by guard-rails. The horse
was also killed and the wagon broken. The
case was compromised by the Commissioners

costs.

ing off the slate and almost tearing one of the
rafters from its place. From the caves, on
each side it passed to the ground, breaking 10
panes of glass in the windows. In its descent
it passed on each side Of the chimney in
room occupied by Mr.. and Mrs. Harrison and
several of their children, near the head of

tering the window castings. The other por-
ton of electricity damaged a room occupied
by Mr.. Harrison's daughters. The shock was
terrific. One Of the children complained, for
some time afterwards, of benumbed hand.
The property was insured in the Farmers
Company, of York, Pa, through the agency
of D. L. Pyle & Son.
