ARTIFICIAL FISH NESTS.
Black Bass ProPaEatorS Make Use of
Machine Made Homes


Machine Made Homes
From the New York Press; Men
engaged in the work of fish breeding
have noticed that black bass often had
trouble with their nests. Sometimes
they could not find enough suitable ma
terial on the bottom to build them
as they wished. and al other times the
storms or currents would destroy them
after the bass had spawned. thus caus-
ing the loss Of all the eggs. 1t is ex-
tremcly difficult to propagate black
bass artificially and this led the breed
ers to supply artificial nests for the use
of the bass. They are made Of earth
enware and have little gravel ce-
meuted in the bottom. The fish have
taken kindly to them and lay their
eggs cheerfuIly in the factory-made
nests

Of the shadow which the conflict
throws over all. one constantly hears
Of functions OF various kinds provided
for the amusement Of society folk. Dur
ing the administration of Gen. weyler
there was a great deal OF this kind of
thing. II was the policy OF that officer
to minimize the effects Of war by in

Maine he stunned anything which
seemed to countenance anything like
friyolity. He has since seemed imbued
with the idea that the present times
are too full Of more important matters
to admit Of any attention to mere so
cial doings.
But in spite Of oriciaI ignoring OF
their claims the visitor here cannot
fail to note the many handsome women
to be seen on the streets OF the city.
They are distinct types OF Cuban beau
ty, who are evidently accustomed to
move in the best society-women who
would grace any fashionable gather
ing Of the elect OF any American city.
Cuban women are not as much &C
eustomed TO seeing their portraits used
in the papers as are their American
sisters. and ii is difficult to persuade
them to permit the artist to create
their likenesses. hut those OF some who
are real types of what Cuban beauty
looks like have been obtained.
One thing must be said for the vo-
men of Havana They were deeply
moved over the appalling fate of the
Maine. Their sympathy was wide
spread when the news Of the explosion
and death was reported in the city.
The leading women OF the day-Span-
ish sympathizers as well as Cubans
proper-did all in their power to allie
viate the sufferings Of the wounded
sailors carried TO the hospitals after
the disaster. For a time apparently
all partisan feeling was lost In the uni

genuine Castilian girl is often wonder
fully beautiful, but In all probability
there are more really beautiful women
in Havana than in Madrid or any other
purely Spanish city. The impression
which obtains among Americans that
persons of Spanish blood are invari-
ably brunettes is a mistaken one. In
fact, outside Of the Andalusian prov
inces there are many women who are
as markedly blonde as any who hale
