PROTECT THE FISH.

All the streams i'll this parish
furnish fish i'm abundance, and
during the hot summer days our
people seek the banks of those
streams to spend a day of rest,
fun and pleasure, and to enjoy
fishing, which is a sport loved by
many of our people.
OF late years the practice OF
seining and netting has become III
use, and as result, the fish of
most of those streams have nearly
been destroyed, which is a great
hardship on those people who
seek the banks of those streams
to make their outings and pic-nics,
for it is nearly impossible to catch
any fish in those streams unless
they resort to the use of the nets,
and continuing the obstruction OF
the fnny tribes of those pleasant
resorts.
There is a way of stopping this
crime against the laws OF the
State, and at the same time pro
tecting and perpetuating the hsl
in all Onr streams, and the way ts
do it is to have all the amateur'
who visit those places nearly ever!

America as Viewed Abroad.

One of the most amusing and
yet reliable descriptions of Amer
lea is found in the columns of IA
newspaper published in Switzer-
land. The description runs in
this wise: America is a country
in comparison to which Europe is
small peninsula. The United
States is an empire by whose. side
the powers of Europe appear as
petty states. America is the land
of unmeasured capacity and di-
mentions, the land of dollars and
electricity, the land where the
plains are wider, the rivers greater,
the waterfalls higher, the bridges
longer, the express trains faster,
catastrophe more horrible than in
all Europe; the country where
buildings are taller, the rascals
more numerous, the poor the poor
er, the millionaires richer, the
thieves bolder, the murderers less
bothered, and educated people
more rare than anywhere else. II
Is the land in which the teeth are
more false, the corsets tighter,
disease moro dangerous, corrup-
ton more common, insanity more
systematic. he summer hotter, the

HUMAN LEATHER.
In Paris They Are Binding Books
With Skin of Criminals.

with Okln OI CIlmlndlS.
1t is nothing more than a fad, of
course, but it is one of those alb
normally developed fads which in
clude in its following nearly every
one in paris who wishes to be call
ed "smarts," says the New York
journal. Men and women high
in Partisan society have fallen
victims to whatever attractiveness
the fad may have.
The method at first was to OBJ
tain piece of the skin OF a depar-
ted friend. This is tanned and
then turned over to the boOkblnd-
or. Sometimes it is merely lnser-
ted in the cover, but in several
cases where the skin has been
sufficiently large it has served III
place of the leather back OF the
volume.
From a modest start with the
sentiment, however morbid it may
have been, implied by having the
skin of ones friends preserved,
the fad has taken a peculler turn.
The proper thing at this period is
to have the skin taken from some
notorious criminal. To do this
necessarily involve a series OF
pulls with the public officials.
The bodies after execution are
sent to the Ecole de Medicine
and it is not impossible to get de
sired piece of skin by a liberia
dispensation of money.
A Partisan journalist has il
his possession a cigarette cas'
made out of the skin of the nOto
rious Prauzini. Tobacco pouches
and pocketbooks are displayed b.
their proud pOssessors made of tin
skin of some criminal who ha
paid the penalty of his crimes.
The idea of using human ski
for pocketbooks is not confine'
entirely to the Parisians. NeN
York medical students are nursing
! a fad along this line. The ski
!. used by the local devOtees seldom
!. has any morbid history beyon

bonds" The great weight that is

sum is a thousand million dollars.
