To Save the Bass.

DR.. George W. Massamore, secretary
and treasurer of the Maryland Game
and Fish Protective Association, was
in Washington Saturday perfecting
plans for transferring to the Potomac
river the bass in the Chesapeake and
Ohio canal The State association de-
termined in the fall to take action
against the fishing abuses in the canal,
which has been going on when the
water has been drawn off that water
way in winter. When the canal has
been emptied heretofore the shallow
waters and pools left in it have been
densely habited by the bass and other
food fishes, which were frequently
scooped up by bucketfuls.
DR.. Massamore went first to George
town to see Col. G. L. Nicholson, SUI
perintendent of the Chesapeake canal.
Colonel Nicholson will furnish the
Maryland Game and Fish Protective
Association through its secretary with
permits for the various divisions en-
gagged in seining. Colonel Nicholson
will also do everything he possibly
can to facilitate the work by drawing
the water off more slowly than is usual.
DR.. Massamore and members Of the
Blue Ridge and Woodmont Clubs had
an interview with United States Fish
Commissioner Brice to see what assist
ance could be obtained from that
source. Commissioner Brice, after
hearing what the committee wanted,
said: II will furnish four of the best
men 1 have, and if the Maryland
Game and Fish Protective Association
will furnish the rest Of the help and
provide food and shelter for my mon,
1 will do the work and furnish such
seines and other paraphernalia as |
have at my command.
Commissioner Brice considers this
scheme a most meritorious one. DR.
Massamors says, in his estimation
Commissioner Brice has done more
for the propagation of food fishes than
any other commissioner. Captain
Brice is practical he knows just what
to do, and goes at his work promptly
The Maryland Association and al
true sportsmen, he says, will owe
much to Commissioner Brice and Col
Nicholson for their activity in saving
the bass and transferring them to the
river.

MEN may come and men may go,
but pensions go on forever. In his
annual message to Congress President
Cleveland says: 1.-THE diminution of
our enormous pension roll and the de-
crease of pension expenditure, which
have been so often confidently foretold,
still fail in material realization. The
number of pensioners on the rolls at
the close of the fiscal year ended June
so, 1896, was 970,67S. This is the
largest number ever reported. The
amount paid exclusively for pensions
during the year was $l38,2l4,76l,94
slight decrease from that Of the pre-
ceding year, while the total expendi-
lures on account of pensions, including
the cost of maintaining the depart
ment and expenses attending pension
distribution, amounted to $l42, 206,-
5000, or within very small frac-
ton of one-third of the entire expense
of supporting the government during
the same year. The number of new
pension certificates issued was 90, $40
OF these, 4O,374 represent original al
lowances of claims and IL, S7S increas-
es of existing pensions.
Just think of it-97O,67S pension
ersl Nearly 100000 more names
than were on the rolls of the Confed
crate armies during the entire war.
