A Labrador fishing-stage usually con-
sists of long, low frame-house, and
little one-room huts, OF 'tilts," as they
are called. The house is used ms a store
and dwelling for the agent of the New
foundland merchant who has fitted up
the stage. All the fishermen who oc-
cupy the tits work for the merchant,
and are paid for their fish in provisions
from the store.
The tits are like those seen in the
Newfoundland fishing and mining out
posts every settlement in Newfound-
land except st. Johns is an outpost).
The sides are logs set upright and sup
porting sod-covered roofs-wretched
nbodes at the best. Along the
Straits of Belle Isle the Labrador
coast is fringed with strip of coarse
grass land. and here you may sec an
occasional small vegetable-garden SUR
rounded by flsh-net for n fence. At
Blanc Sablon ! saw a desolate little
burying-ground amid the swaying
rushes. Near by lay couple of worn
out boats, bottom up, and nets spread
over the ground to dry. Here, too, l
saw for the first time the dapper little
Labrador gasher--a small fishing
craft not much larger than dory,
but with sharp PROV and stern, and
two masts fitted with reddish-brown
sails. These are telling bits Of color
when the CASHIERS skim over the deep
blue water, with the foam streaking
along their quarters and glittering in
their wake. Altogether it was varied
scene; the headland, from staff on
which there futtered the flag of
the merchant who owned the out
fit" the CASHIERS dashing in and out
among the punts and jacls(stoutly built
two stickers larger than the gashcrs);
fishing-schooner with furled sails, but
with toil-stained nets streaming from
her spars in an endless variety of lights
and shadows, according as the meshes
twisted or bulged in the breeze; and
in the distance the exquisite greenland
white spires of an iceberg. A note of
toll drones through it all, however; for
women are saving and chopping wood
while the men are hauling the nets. A
curious implement of fishing in these
waters is n spy-glass with plain win
dow-glass in place of lens. A man in
the bow of a fishing boat thrusts the
glass in the water, and, peering
through it, discovers whether there are
fish enough on the bottom to make it
worth while to anchor, for anchoring
in deep water is toilsome matter

Personal AND LITERARY.

i-Coleridge read the works of Shakes
/, peare more than he did the writings Of
any other author. He said the world
had never produced and would never
again produce such genius.
Dryden was devoted lover of the
Latin classics. He was rarely unpro-
vided with n pocket edition of one or
another of the Latin poets, and at
every spare moment was seen coming
its pages.
Wagner was not pleasant COM
panion. His egotism was SO promi-
nent feature of his character that
his conversation ran almost exclusive
| ly on himself and his various projects,
and the least contradiction made him
angry.
Moore thought "Lallnh Rooleh"
was his best, but relied on his songs to
carry his name down to posterity. He
was fondest of the Irish melodies, and
sang them to perfection in rich voice
that brought out the full significance
Of every word.
-Fielding's tom Jones" was his
favorite, and after that he seemed to
think that "Don Quixote in England"
was the next in order of merit.
Coleridge thought that tom Jones"
was one of the most perfect plots that
was ever planned.
! -Thaclseray always alluded to his
books in n half comic, half satiric
vein, and would rarely express any
preference, speaking in n contemptu-
Gus strain of them all. His friends be-
lieved, however, that he regarded
Vanity Fair as his best; one says,
because it paid him best.
Paul Bourget is writing Mt Cannes

A Small youths Retreat.

The pompous schoolmastcr sometimes
finds himself in a position which Is not
entirely to his taste. A grcnt English
wit, Mark Lemon, once wrote O book In
which he told OF chubby-faccd little
urchin who passed his conccitcd in
structor upon tho street without bow
ing. The schoolmaster stopped and
frowned.
.sWhat has become of your manners,
sir?" he roared. 1T seems to me that
you are better fed than taught"
..Ycs, sir" replied the little boy.

about eighteen months to train them

"What do you feed them on?"
"They have hay morning and even

''Only one more question. Do you

1.-THE White Squadron" will be seen at
Ferguson's theatre next Tuesday evening.
Its Brazilian setting is uneclipsed. Fol-
lowing so close on our South and Central
American embroglios, it has an especial
interest for every one interested in those
turmoiled localities, or having a relative
or friend on board of an American man
of-war in South American waters. The
Congress of Navies appeals directly to
the maritime spirit of every nation, and
as the government of this country is
represented as being in the breach on
every occasion there is no lack of inspira-
tion for local patriotic outbursts. The
feminine element in the play is rather
unduly suppressed, but, when it does hav e
an opportunity, there is nothing lacking
in delineation.

The candidacy of Mr.. John A. Grant

places at the disposal of the people in

will benefit the public schools and those
whom they are intended to benefiU. I'm
fortunately Mr.. Grant is confined to his
bed by illness at the present time, and

SHENANDOAH PEOPLE.
What a County Seat Paper Has to Say
of Them.

The following interesting paragraphs
were furnished by the 'En,re Nous"
column of the Pottsville Journal to-day
A. B Lamb, Esq, of Shenandoah, one
Of the Oouneilmen of the Third ward of
that borough, and by long odds the ablest
one in the body, trod the tiles of the Mer-
chants Hotel one day this week. Archie,
as he is familiarly called, IL one OF the
most progressive men in this county. He
is active, alert and apt; and can always
be depended upon to unmRsk demagogism
whenever 1t shows itself, as it frequently
does in the CouncilmaniC session Of his
cosmopolitan town. 10 listen to Archie
roasting a recalcitrant member from the
First ward at recent meeting was equal
to first-class dramatic entertainment,
and certainly more amusing and instruo-
tive than many that show on the boards
of that towns musty old play house.
Speaking of Shenandoah and apropos
of the appearance of Kellar, the magician
in Pottsville last night, am reminded of
performance he atte npted in the town
above the mountain two or three seasons
ago. The madame was doing her cube
root extracting act and Kellar offered 500
to any one in the audience who discovered
an error. The quick mathematical eye of
Frank Reese Che who was clerk under
Controller Severn) detected an error called
it out and proved it. He read his title
clear to the hundred and Kellar planked
them down.
