SHORT INTERVALS OF PEACE.

Only are vouchsafed to nerves weak ana
unstrung, but when it is braced up ana
soothed by Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
perfect tranquility reigns night and day
throughout the nervous system Ner-
vousness is equally a manifestation OF
chronic dyspepsia, a disorder to the re-
lief of which the Bltters are peculiarly
adapted. In the general vigor begotten
of complete digestion and assimilation,
two functions aided by this auxiliary OF
health, the nerves of course share. Ner-
vous people should use it steadily, not
at uncertain intervals. The bilious and
constipated, and those troubled with ma
.aria, rheumatism and kidney trouble,
also derive remarkable benefits from It,
The aged and inflrm find that it tends
greatly to lessen their physical troubles
and persons slowly recovering strength
after an exhausting illness convalesce
more rapidly when it is resorted to. 1t
is, moreover a capital appetizer.

In an article on the custom OF scme
British shipowners making contracts with
stevedores and others abroad 10 do the
shlp's work, Fairplay says: There are
no sufhcient means of compelling steve
dores abroad to fulfill their contracts
whereas the foreign firms are only too
weH able to enforce their side OF the
bargain by stoppage of the vessels
through arrest or otherwise Thus IN
working, these contracts were found IN
be one-sided, and 1t is surprising that
owners, after the unpleasant experience
which SO many OF them have had, should
continue to patronize the Contractors
When there Is no contract the masters
hands are free to make the best bargain
he can both as regards price and dis
patch; and he, being on the spot, is far
petter aDle to make an arrangement and
see II carried out than his owner can
possibly be-who resides several thous-
and miles away. In the old days own.
ers left everything of this kind to their
captains, with the result that the latter
urged by the sense of responsibility. and
anxious to make a dispatch, and utilized
all the influence they could command at
Foreign ports to further the interests of
their vessels Nowadays owners are too
prone TO take everything upon them
selves, under the mistaken idea that bv
entering into apparently advantageous
contracts with the willy foreigner, though
they thereby tie the hands of their can
tains they stand to augment their yes-
se,s' earnings What do contracts ar
slightly reduced rates mean? As a rule
when the foreign contractor lowers his
figure he sees his way to recoun himself
by methods which do not transpire in the
negotiations or appear in the signed docu-
ments. He will sometimes cut things so
fine that his only chance of making a
profit lies in the employment Of indiffer-
ent laborers and screwlng them down to
the lowest possible wages, which opens
out the danger Of the men striking and
thus delaying the vessel. Not MANY
years ago foreign stevedore and lighter
age contractor came over here, and by
his plausibility obtained a number of
contracts from owners. Afterwards, on
his return home, he disposed of his busi-
ness on the strength of these contracts.
and made good thing of the transaction.
The result was that the British ship
owners concerned were bound to the pur-
chaser of the business, the original con-
tractor having fitted UP matters with his
customer by arranging that the latter
should be allowed to work under the
contract name. A further result was
that many of the shipowners involved
on receiving their statements
OF account, that they had been badly vic
timlzed, and they were probably not far
out in their reckonings."

hope 1t will prove to he successful.

"The residents of New York." says the
Fishing Gazette, cannot fully realize the
enormous quantities of sea food CONSUMED
daily in this city. There is hardly a
lunch served in New York but that would
be considered incomplete without some
kind Of sea food. Cafes, wine-rooms and
saloons all cater to this universal taste
for fish in some shape, either smoked
salmon, caviar smelts, fried clans, clam
fritters, clam bouillon, fried cells, oysters,
shrimps, ETC., etc. One can hardly credit
the amount of food Of this kind that is
consumed daily. One firm in New York
make a speciality of supplying the cafes,
wine-rooms and saloons with sea food for
lunches, besides conducting a first-class
restaurant where fish dinners are made
a speciality. In fact during the cholera
scare in 1892 the head of the establishment
gave a notable fish dinner to the edi-
tors OF the leading newspapers Of New
York and succeeded in convincing them,
one and all, that there was no danger in
eating any kind of sea food. 1t had
a wholesome effect and resulted in re-
storing confidence in articles Of food that
had been thoughtlessly condemned by
many that knew practically nothing Of
the habits OF the denizens Of the sea,
lakes and rivers. Some idea can be
formed then Of the volume Of business
done by this firm, when it Is stated that
1000 pounds OF eels are used weekly. 10000
soft clans. 800 or GOO smelts, $50 pounds
salmon, 10 pounds haddock, 2 boxes Of

We learn that the run of salmon in
the klamath river is small and 1t is
feared that the fishermen and cannery
will not do well. For a number of years
fishing in that stream has been fail
ure, in the face Of thousands Of fish being
turned out each year from the govern
ment hatcheries. Fish will not thrive in
a stream that has extensive hydraulic
mines along its banks. The protection
of fish and game is a farce in this state.

The bark Harvester arrived from Kar-
LUX, Alaska, Monday night with 5000 cases
of salmon. While at Karluk June the
brig encountered a squall, and dragging
the old, wornout mooring which vessels
are obliged to lay to there she almost
met the fate which overlook the Raphael
a few weeks later. Anchors were hastily
gotten out with heavy lines attached,
which held the vessel from going on the
beach, The captain of the harvester
states that the anchorage at Karluk is
an open roadsted and unsafe even in
the ligLhtest blow, and that the Raphael
was lost only because the Alaska Pack
ing company did not replace the old
moorings with new anchors and chains.

j. H. West, owner of the steamer Edna,
says the Post-Inteliigencer, which has
been carrying the mail between Anacortes
and Friday harbor in place of the Buck
eye, and mas just returned here says
that the salmon catch at Friday Harbor
cannery is very large. Fully fourteen
feet of salmon were in the trap at one
time" said he, "and they are the most
excellent for canning purposes. At one
time | saw three sharks in the trap. One
was dead, another had just a little life,
and the third was very Lively. They eat
salmon in great quantities" A salmon
gill net which had been lost by some
unknown fisherman recently was found
by becoming entangled in the wheel of
the Edna. There was nothing to show
where 1t came from except the mark
'R. & K" and the fish inside We're so
much decomposed that Mr.. West thinks
1t may have drifted many miles. lie is of
the opinion that no boat had been lost
in a tide riff, but the net was found in
a passage where such thing might hap
pen. He left it with Mr.. Newhall at
Friday Harbor. The Edna will engage
in the towing and jobbing business and
is now at Myers cannery.

The following interesting statement
comes from the Tacoma News: "There is
said to be movement on foot to corner
this seasons supply of native oysters
and crustacea and force the price far
above the normal scale. Seattle firm
is said to be at the head of the concern
and to have succeeded in securing the
entire oyster crop of Oyster bay near
Olympia, the principal source of supply
for this district. The oyster season will
soon he open for the winter and these
energetic Seattle dealers hope TO make
big profits by their action. Oyster bay
supplies fully two-thirds of all the native
fresh oysters consumed on the Sound.
The remainder comes from Shoalwater
bay. The price of oysters is now SO
sack Last winter they brought $3.50
but the average price is $3.50 per sack.
Gay Seattleites lead in the consumption
of the toothsome bivalve, with a score
Of 60 sacks per week. Tacoma takes
about 30 sacks per week and Olympia
not half that number The same Sc
attic firm, it Is said is also taking steps
to secure the control of the crab, shrimp
and clam supplies of the Sound. The best
crabs now come from Dungeness and are
pronounced for superior to the San Fran
cisco crab by those who pretend to know,
and equally as paTataIble as the original
English crab. The two cities, Seattle
and Tacoma, now use form 20 to 25 dozen
crabs a week. A goodiy number of
shrimps of prime quality are now being
brought into the market from Port Or
chard and Quartermaster harbor. "Clams
are often used as a substitute for oysters
in free lunch houses" said a well known
oyster man, who added: Seattle takes
about 200 sacks of the juicy clam each
week, while Tacoma uses only half that
amount. Cams are getting scarce all
along the Sound, and unless some action
is taken the source of supply is doomed
to depletion"
