here in Hong Kong are more deliberately
ornamented than most of their shops
elsewhere, and although they are only 20
feet deep by 10 or II wide. they contain
great variety of goods. In the native
quarters the saleroOm is a dimly lighted,
unattractive place. At the back of the
shop a little lamp is kept burning before
some small image, surrounded by paper
flowers or pots of growing plants, such
as the favorite narcissus or the dwarf
orange, and on the walls are frequently
to be seen scrolls containing extracts
from the writings of Confucius Mensius

tradesmen and commanding courtesy to-

CATCHING COD.
Marine Fishermen Set Out Travis
With Three Thousand Hooks,
From the Lewiston journal.

From the Lewiston Journal
In the herring fishery everything is done
with the seine. In fishing for cod. halibut
and hake hand lines are used to a limited
extent, but most of the captures are made
by travis. All the craft are schooner
rugged, and but few of them carry fore
topmasts. This gives them a slovenly ap-
pearance aloft, but they do away with the
spar because the craft rolls less in a sea
when at anchor There are no fine lines
about the hulls. The object is room and
stability, and, while they are good sea
boats, they are not fast sailers. The own
ers OF the craft find travis, small boats,
Salt and provisions, and two strips a year

Out of the fleet few take ice and re-
turn TO market with fresh fish every two
or three weeks. but the majority catch

but 1t is quite as likely that he won't have
made dollar a day, though he has mad
free board all the time and good board at
that. Fishing on the banks at any time Oh
the year is hard and diSagreeable work.
Goldfish are very erratic in their move,
mentS. A schooner may have fish around
her for thirty days, one day being as
good as another or she may sail and drift
for three or four days, before getting
bite. If luck is with her, down goes the
anchor and the trawlers begin work.
traWl may be described as a rope many
hundred feet long. There are 5000 hooks
to the average trawl, which is ATTENDED
by two men. Each man has 15O9 hooks
to bait and care for. The rope is weight
ed to sink to within a few feet of me
bottom, and is then buoyed. The traWi
is generally set late in the afternoon anu
overhauled next morning.
If luck is with the fishermen 800 cod may
be taken from the trawl They are vo-

previous days earnings. But to all
others the dog that smokes" was a
sort of myth, and few visitors to the
gay city have ever heard of it.
But now the dog that smokes is no
longer a fable; but the proud beast
may be seen with it's pipe on the top of
his owners wagon as he hauls trunks
and cases from the North of France
railroad to the Eastern line.
The dog, the pipe, the owner, and the
wagon have been sketched from life
for the New York World. The joy of
the little boys and passers-by when
they catch sight of the dog is great.
They all stop and stare at him. The
owner says that hardly day passes
without there being among the crowd
some enthusiastic person who gives the
driver packet of tobacco for his dog.
It not infrequently happens that when
the driver reaches home after his days
work he has over a pound of tobacco
for tho canine smoker.
But the dog that smokes does not
get all of this. The driver himself is
an inveterate smoker, but he takes good
care not to enjoy tho luxury at the same
time as his Newfoundland. He has
discovered new method of keeping
himself in tobacco for several years to
come. He says that he has over 200
pounds of tobacco stored at his home,
all given TO him for 'the dog that
smokes" but which, Of course, the ami

viii show you the tracks where the
ground is soft"
Mother and son retraced their steps
and all at once the latter pointed to the
ground.
1t was at a>spot where the ground
was still soft from recent rains, and
very few leaves were there.
"Here is one of the tracks, mother"
said Benny. Don't you see it is shaped
like a human, foot and that the toes
turn inward? / saw good many In
dian tracks on the old sandbar last
summer and we knew that they were
Indian ones"
The settlers wife had taken the torch
from her sons hands and was looking
at the ground at her feet The light fell
full upon the spot, and she could make
out the outlines of q human footmark
in the yielding soil
"0ur bear may be a redsltin." said
the boy, watching his mother.
There was no reply, as Mrs. Morley
rose quickly and looked toward the
cabin where she had left her husband
and the other little ones asleep.
Come" she said, hastily. If an In
dian has been here we must reach the
cabin as soon as possible"
In another moment mother and son
were Fastening toward the little home;
but suddenly a cry from Benny's lips
startled the mother and she stopped
and looked at him.
THE bear, mother, the bear!" said
the boy, pointing toward the house,
but few rods distant
Mrs. Morley leaned forward. her eager
eyesearching out the dark places which
the light of the torch did not fully PEN

OF the British residents of Guiana.
No sooner had these new gold dis
coveries been made than England
found out that her agents who had
previously assigned limits to her ter
r.tory had been so stupid as not to
claim all the country she was entitled
to. But the blunder was easily rem
edied, and hardly q year elapsed be-
fore British Guiana had waxed great

came the duty of the British flag, be-
fore 1886 was ended, to float over about
10000 more square miles of South
American soil.
