CANADA'S WEALTH IN FISH.
The Dominion Commissioner of Fisheries
Talks About 1t.

The Dominion Commissioner of Fisheries
Talks About 1t.
"Bullheads are coming to the front, .
was the somewhat unexpected announce
ment made by Prof. Prince in his lecture
before the Royal society on the resources
of Canadian fisheries. Prof. Prince is
the dominion commissioner of fisheries.
This bullhead or mudpOut industry, Prof.
Prince said, he could not exactly vonch
for but he was told that in the estGaries
of the great lakes the fish was now being
taken in large quantities by methods far
removed from the primitive angling out
tit of the small boy, and, though the
whitefsh output is estimated at $4,000
GOO, the bullhead promises well. He un-
derstood that the bullheads were fixed up
and appeared on the tables of American
hotels as mountain trout"
The professor then went on to tell of
the enormous wealth of the Canadian
fisheries, which, estimated at 500, 100000
officially, he believed, would reach $780,
100000 it we take into account the
quantity consumed by settlers, Indians
and others, of which no statistics were
available. The Pacific coast, with it's
10000 miles of coast line; the Atlantic
coast, the great lakes, the smaller lakes
great lakes; the st. Lawrence, Macken-
zie. Red, Peace, and other rivers; the
Hudson bay, with it's yet undiscovered
treasures, were dealt with by the lee
turer. and then he proceeded to tell of
the fisheries branch of the government,
which aims to develop and protect this
ever growing industry.
In describing the many forms of nets
used in capturing fish. Prof. Prince said
that fish have not great amount of in
telligence, Or they would often get out Of
the traps that were set for them. Of the
deep seas area, the lecturer estimate it
to yield about $1OOOO,OOO per annum.
He gave an interesting account of the
cod, halibut, mackerel, herring. and lob
ster fishing, and remarked that some Of
these were being depleted owing to the
excursions of foreigners with methods of
catching that were extremely destruc-
tive. Shad fishing, he anticipated, would
soon be thing of the past unless proper
measures were taken to preserve it, and
this could only be done after very great
consderat ton, as the shad is now a
source of large income to many fisher
men.
Large striped bass, caught in scoop
nets through the ice realize more per
pound than do salmon. Lake Winnipeg
yields 1900 tons of whitefish annually

SILVER Eonnd i'm New jersey.

While prospecting on the Blue noun
tains, in New Jersey, almost opposite the
Delaware Water Cap, Henry Written
and III. O. Trasue came upon what has
since been pronounced by experts to be
silver ore. The men had been looking
for traces of lead ore, in which the
mountains are said to be rich. The parts
they were traversing were very wild,
and they almost walked upon a nest
of rattlesnakes. The reptiles showed
fight. and with sticks the two prospectors
killed ffty-six and put the others to
flight. In their lair Trasue discovered
some crystals, which his companion pro-
nounced combination of silver and ar
senic. The specimens were sent to

An Apple Night Cap.

In August summer apples will have
ripened, and everybody ought to know
that the very best thing he can do is to
eat apples just before retiring for the
night Persons uninitiated in the mys-
teries of the fruit are liable to throw
I'D their hands in horror at the visions of
dyspepsia which such a suggestion may
summon up, but no harm can come even
to a delicate system by the eating of
ripe and juicy apples just before going
to bed. The apple is excellent brain
food, because it has more phosphoric
acid in easily digested shape than any
other fruits. 1t eNcites the action of
the liver, promotes sound and healthy
sleep and thoroughly disinfects the
mouth This is not all. The apple helps
the kidney secretions and prevents cal
culous growths. while it obviates indiges-
ton and is one of the hest known pre-
ventives of diseases of the throat. One
of the best known of older physician as
of Providence has the custom of eating
one. two, three or four apples before
going to bed. and finds himself much
benefited Observation-Disclosures of Phar-

ART AMONG THE ESKIMOS.

Clever Carvers in Ivory and Some Who
Can Sketch with Skill.
We did much entertaining. as we were
continually visited by different members
of the tribe of 200 or more. They were
content to sit and share the warmth and
shelter of our house, and gaze on the
curious things it contained. They would
turn the pages of magazine by the
hour, and, holding the books upside
down. ask questions about the pictures.
What particularly pleased them was any
thing in the shape of gun, knife OF am
munition. Of eating they never tired.
The amount of food they consumed was
astonishing, and they particularly re-
veled in coffee, biscuit and pemmican.
This love was manifested by a little ditty
that they sang quite often:
Uh bis-e-ken,
Uh-pem-e-kem.
The women are very clever with the
needle and as most of us had adopted
the Innuit boot of sealskin, which re-
luired frequent mending, they were al
ways in demand. In mechanical in
genuity they are remarkable. Both men
and women are carvers in ivory, and the
tiny figures-human as well as animal
that they fashion in this material. al
though somewhat crude, show no mean
ability. This skill is also to be remarked
in regard to the use of the pencil. One of
them, As-sey-e-yeh. drew from memory
a steamer in perspective, with the re-
Elections in the water, and that. too, in a
suggestive and artistic way.-Century.

Fishing with a Buggy.

A good fish story is told in Beaver
Fall. Boyd Jack of Vanport drove his
buggy into the river at that place to
wash it. After working while he saw
what he thought was large snake
cyrating around the buggy. Procuring
a club. Jack waited for good opportun-
ity and let go. striking the supposed
snake stunning blow, which laid it on
the top of the water. With the club he
then landed the monster on dry land,
when. to his surprise, it proved to be a
large German carp weighing nineteen
hounds. -Pittsburg Commercial Gazette.

MINING ON THE YUKON.
None Of the Miners Suffering, and It's
Good Place.

Good Place.
During all the years l have lived in
Juneau, Alaska" said e. Valentine to
the San Francisco Call, II have never
had miner ask me for anything to eat.
1t is wrong to suppose that they have
suffered. With two exceptions, | do not
think | ever saw a man return to Juneau
from beyond the divide with less than
$50. And | have seen miners come in
with dust worth from that amount all
the way up to $4,000 or $4,000. The
two men that came out broke were 4
couple of fellows l staked. They had
bad luck Their waterwheels were car
ried away in frcshet and they lost
what they had The fact that the min
ers always go back again speaks well
for the Yukon region. All of them do
better than they could in the same time
anywhere else. A man come into Juneau
the other day with seventy-six pounds
of gold dust the result of two seasons in
the Yukon region. Mail carriers get 81
apiece for carrying letters between Ju-
neau and the Yukon mines. They usual
ly make up package of about 800 let
tiers for trip. The miners that will
stay in that region can work up till the
middle of October, but those who are
coming out will have to quit work a
month earlier in order to cross the di-
vide before the heavy SHOWS. Juneau is
just as good a country as l want to live
in. like it as well as any place | have
ever seen. 1t rains a good deal. The
average rainfall is nine feet year.

Resting the Heart

Nature takes the time when one is "
ing down to give the heart rest, and
that organ consequently makes ten
strokes less minute than when one is
IN an upright position. Multiply that
by sixty minutes and it is 600 strokes.
Therefore, in eight hours spent in lying
down the heart is saved nearly 5000
strokes, and as the heart pumps ounces
of blood with each stroke it lifts 10000
ounces less of blood in q night of eight
hours spent in bed than when one is III
an upright position As the blood flows
SO much more slowly through the veins
when one is lying down, one must supply
then with extra coverings the warmth
usually furnished by circulation.
Gold i'm the Blue Mountains.
During the last few days excellent
specimens of gold ore were taken from
paint ore mine owned by Mr.. Frey
man, several miles beyond Little Gap,
and just across the line between Carbon
and Monroe counties. Pa. The location
is not far from Kimpletown, and is in
what is known as Stone mountain, a
spur that begins in the Blue mountain,
extending as far west as Millport, Car
bon county. Stone mountain is full of
paint ore, and it was while Workmen
were driving a tunnel through the noun
tain to reach a paint mine that the gold
was found.-Philadelph Ledger.
