situated that their fire may be con-

Fish Commissioner A. G. Little Asks the
Co-operstion Of All Interested In Sal
mon Propagation.
Mr.. A. G. Little, state fish commits
sioner, Is DESTROYS of having az many
people as possible who are engaged In
the fish industry, or are interested in
same, tO visit at least one Of the state
hatcheries and there, by personal OBJ
servation, see and understand the prac-
teal workings of the artificial propaga-
ton system. He would much prefer
to have parties from this vicinity visit
Baker lake hatchery if possible, but az
it Is something of an effort to get to
this point, he presumes that other
localities would be preferred and would
advise visiting the Kalama hatchery.
They have at the Kalama hatchery at
this time over six million young salmon
in the finest condition and believe that
there is not in the United States a
hatchery doing moro successful work
than this one. The efficient superin-
tendent will be very happy to explain
every detail of the work that is there
being carried out. If q number of the
citizens and others interested in the
fish industry could find time to visit
this hatchery am sure it would be
productive Of considerable good in the
way Of getting efficient legislation next
winter for one, il not the greatest and
most important industries Of the coast.

A Chinese Solomon.

A recent number Of the North China
Herald contained an account Of the
administration of justice by Chinese
magistrate which reminds one Of Solo
mon. Two brothers, well advanced in
age, quarreld over a piece Of land which
they had jointly inherited from their
father, and went to law. The native
magistrate heard the testimony on
both sides and determined that both
were wrong and both right, according
to the different points Of view. There
fore, instead of rendering judgment
in favor Of either, he ordered that both
be locked up in cangue with their
heads fastened face to face and kept
there until they settled their quarrel.
The cangue II sort Of cage In which
prisoners are placed with their necks
locked into q hole in board. IT re-
sembles somewhat the stocks which
were used for the punishment Of male
factors in 0lden time. When the broth
ers were placed in the cangue they
were both very stubborn and indignant,
but toward the end Of the second day
they began to weaken, and on the third
day reached . satisfactory settlement
and were released. Chicago Record.
