The First of April Is Near at Hand and
 With 1t the nrOuttur Season,


 The old "saw" that if March comes in like lamb she goes out like lion has been verified, and sportsmen far and near VOW that they will never again question its truth. March is leaving us and in few days April will be here lovely, joyous April, when all mankind acknowledges the beauties of nature and of the season. And with it comes the trouting season, the one time of the year to lovers of the sport, who crowd into the short few months enough sport to last them for the rest of the year.
 But the season this year is not being received with such joy as in previous years by these sportsmen for several reasons-frstly, March has shown her self fickle prophecies, and what three short weeks ago she promised in good faith she later proved false by her own actions; and, secondly, the season itself by it's shortness does not promise to make matters better.
 At the beginning of the month every thing pointed to successful season-a not over-severe winter, no large fresh cts and the early approach of spring, while a poor run of fish the preceding year gave promise of large run this year. Now all seems changed. The cold weather has again chilled the wa ter, the melting snows have filled the ponds, the fishing is sure to be poor and fishermen resign themselves to their dis appointment.
 lis not the first, however, and al- though they tell mournful tale now, April 1 will see them out as numerous as ever with rod and line and basket and bait, all eager to have first try at the sport. And who can tell now how 1t will be at that time? It may prove a surprise to all, and no matter how it proves it is sure to better itself with each succeeding day.
 Although not strictly affecting the catching of trout by hook and line in public streams, the legislation which is going on at Hartford concerning trout raised for food sale is interesting in this connection. On Friday last the fisheries and game committee of the reported a substitute bill on the sale of trout artiticially raised for food. It makes the season from February to October l. A fee of $1 must be paid to the fish and game com mission each year and they will issue a certificate or license. All cans or packages of trout sold outside the reg llar closed season must bear a certifi- cate or tag signed by the fish commits sion. A fine of $20 will be imposed on any one offering trout for sale without lhis tag during the regular closed sea- son.

The Stock Market.

New York, March 27.-Nearly all the stocks made advances to-day, some or which were of material proportions.
 Various reasons might be assigned for the movement in individual stocks, but the principal motive for the movement apparently was that the steady advance of prices of late had again aroused the outside public, as the dealings reached nearly one and one-quarter million shares. Aggressive bull manipulation by the leaders of speculation had seem- ingly caused the public to cease waiting for an immediate opportunity to secure stocks at a lower lever.
 The market opened under an impetus of higher quotations from London, and though large realizing of paper profits was apparent from time to time, the advance continued pretty steadily un- til near the close, when the rate for call money reached 6 per cent, leaving the range for the day from to 6, with the last loan at 5. Quite a number of new high-priced records for stocks were made to-day. The strength displayed by the stock market on Saturday brought large number of commission house orders to purchase stock. This caused a pronounced rise at the open ing and induced the elimination of many short contracts.
 The principal activity was in the

1 Flower stocks, there being, for instance, l 25, 000 shares of Federal Steel sold at the opening oyer a range of points, and the stock made a net advance Of 65s per cent. on reports that the earn ings were large. Brooklyn Transit rose 5 points on rumors that the Brooklyn Union Elevated was said to have had one-half million dollars in cash when taken into control by the Transit com pany. a.
 The continued talk of negotiations for combination of the gas and electric light interests of Chicago was used to the benefit of Peoples Gas to the extent of over a point. Among the other spe- cialties to make large improvements were American Tobacco 10 Continental Tobacco 4, Metropolitan 6s4, Third Ave- nue and Consolidated Gas 39s. The largest improvement among the leading railways was PA in Northwest. Febru- ary traffic returns attracted much at tention, as they covered the period dur ing which traffic was somewhat inter- rupted because of the storms. St. Pauls decrease of something over $9,Qoo was due to the increased operating ex- penses, the gross earnings having shown increases.
 In the case of Atchison the road again reported net increase, this time over S1SS,000, although the gross earn ings had increased about $97,00O. Among the southwestern railways Wabash showed a net increase in February earnings of nearly $S8,0O0. The mar ket closed with no decided tone and heavy trading.
 The bond market to-day made an az gressive show of strength, heavy pur- chases of the active issues being made at substantial Improvements Total sales S5,105O00.
 United States bonds were unchanged on bid quotations.

return to that city next week and make an.
other effort in the struggle of life.

reposed so much hope, was taken Ill, pined
away and died. With broken heart she
sought employment In tho city, but her ef-
forts wers unsuccessful. At length sne

of these, a Mrs. W. X. Wilson, Of ESQ
South Broad street, who became her friond
and hoipar, and saw that her bruls o. were
