Scarlet Fever II Public Schools.

The regularity IN attendance Of the
pupils of Irontop Public Schools for
this year has gradually increased until
within the last few days. to such an
extent that the last monthly report
compares favorably with other schools
the same size throughout the State.
During the past week the attendance
has been very poor, especially in the
grammar and high school grades.
This Is partly due 10 sickness Of pu-
pills IN these departments and partly
10 the scarlet fever scare. However.
there should be fewer cases in these
grades than IN the primary. and We

Something new in the fishing line
has been brought before the public
by Fisher and Wright of Tacoma.
They have chartered a steamer and
fitted it out with patented fishing
contrivance by which they propose
to fish by steam power. An ingen-
ious arrangement of scoop nets,
operated by an engine on board the
ship, projects from the bow about
twenty feet into the water ahead.
The plan is to steam swiftly through
. school of salmon forcing them
into the nets, from which they are
carried on board ship by an endless
chain arrangement. If the scheme
works successfully it promises to
revolutionize the fishing industry.
