ranged with two dinner forks anda fish
and an oyster fork at the left of each
plate. At the right are TWO dinner
knives and a soup spoon. Fish knives
are no longer used, the fork being con-
sidered sufficient to cut the fish. A
cut glass or Bohemian glass goblet for
water should be placed at the right.
The goblet is now deemed more elegant
than the tumbler. The Ice water is not
placed upon the table nowadays, but is
left on the sideboard in glass pitchers,
from which it is served by the servant
when needed. The floral decorations
vary according to Individual taste. A
centerpiece hould never be too large

of the plates or be so high that the
guests cannot look owe it-Frances de

The green is on the meadow, the hills

No tears-no signs, my hearty! To moan,

And let the living light out, "Alas! Alas.

MORE.

Mr.. Bryan's letter Of acceptance of
the Democratic nomination, which is
published this morning, is not as in
teresting and readable as some Of his
productions have been. And 1t isn't at
all impressive. He doesn't say much
about 1.-The paramount ISSUE" giving as
his excuse that he said enough in his
notification speech. He did, and 1.-THE
paramount issue" has been growing
less paramount ever since.
The most noteworthy part Of the let
ter is that in which Mr.. Bryan says
that "by inadvertence" the income tax
plank agreed upon by the Resolutions
committee was omitted from the plat
form as read and adopted But he
points out that the subject is covered
by the reaff1rmation of the Chicago
platform, and he takes this occasion to
reassert his belief in the principle
which underlies the income tax. What
ever change there is in other Demo-
Gratis there is none in the big Demo-
crat.
Mr.. Bryan makes another reassertion
and that Is that he will not be a cam
didate for reelection if he Is elected.
What will happen If he isn't he leaves
painfully open.

The nlastheadsman and the striker
are regarded as the two most inlpor-
tant persons in sword-fshing. They
are the battery upon whom everything
else depends. The work of TIE dory-
man is the most novel and exciting
however. A respectable swordfish runs
between ten and fifteen feet In length,
weighing anywhere from one hundred
to six hundred pounds, and it often
takes several hours to tire him out,
while there is always a chance that he
may come up under your dory and
smash a hole through the bottom with
mis- sword, or that you may be lost by
the schooner in the thick weather.

| when it comes within reach Tor this
purpose he has a long pole with an iron
pike on the end of it. To the end of the
pike is attached a dart, which, In turn,
is fastened to a rope known as the
warp. The warp, containing about one
hundred fathoms is coilcd up on the
deck with it's farther end made fast to
barrel buoy. In ironing a fish the
dart Is thrust right through him, leav-
ing 1t buttoned on the other side when

CROKER ON TRUSTS.

The spectacle of Richard Croker, the
head of the great Tammany trust, re-
buking trusts is an improving one. But
he is at it with solemn vigor. He seems
to be a little sensitive, for him, about
his connection and the connection of
other Tammany men with the Ice trust
but he makes this bold bluff: 1t is true
that members of Tammany Hall own
or have owned the trusts stock. What
of that? You or I or any man has the
right to buy any stock that promises
profit. I bought the stock because
thought it a good investment and sold
out when I thought it wise to sell.
Nothing wrong about that. The blame
should be cast, not on stockholders, but
upon the men who are responsible for
raising the price of ice-that is, the d.
rectors. My own dealings
in the stock 1 have fully explained. l
want to say now that I have never at
tended a meeting Of any corporation
which acted on the prices of commodi-
ties-that is, l have never had anything
to do with raising or lowering the mar
ket price of any article. l don't say
will never do anything of the kind, but
/ have not done it up to this time. So
am in no way to blame for the rise in
the price of Ice.
Pretty soon somebody will ask Mr..
Croker IL he has ever had anything to
do with raising or lowering the market
price of offices or protection" And
he will say no with much emphasis.

CATCHING SWORDFISH.

1T was towards the close of Friday
afternoon that we sighted our first
swordfish. We had been working our
way out towards Georges Banks
against variable head winds for three
days and We're lounging about the
schooner's deck thoroughly tired of do
ing nothing when cry from the mast
head sent every man scurrying to his
place like the last bell at school.
Hard up! hard up!"
STEADY herr
Keep off a little!"
Hard down."
1t was all over in d minute. The YES
sci bore down as true as whistle for
the fish, the striker ironed him securely,
the warp whizzed through the cook $
hands until 1t was all played out, and
the barrel buoy thrown overheard, a
dcry was lowered away with rush,
and one of the men rowed off to haul
the catch, while the schooner continued
her course on the lookout for another
There were eight of US on board, In
Guiding the skipper and the cook, and
except myself all "down-Eas fisher
men who had hunted the swordfish for
many seasons. The hold of our schoon-
err was filled with Ice, and we had fitted
with provisions enough to stay out
month If necessary in order to get a
good load of fish. Most of the sword
fish that are taken on the New Eng
land coast come from Georges Banks,
a high ledge about fifty miles each way,
covered by thirty on forty fathoms of
water, which lies about three hundred
miles east of New York, ana is the
great fishing ground of the north Allan
tic. The swordfsh make this their
summer home, usually from about the
middle of June to the middle of Sep
TENDER.
There are at least six places to be
filled on vessel when catching sword
fish, and the average crew contains
from eight to twelve men. These must
be a mastheadman, who watches for
the fish as they swim along near the
top of the water, their back and tail
fins just above the surface, and whose
work 1t is when one has been sighted to
call out directions to the man at the
wheel so as to put the vessel close TO
the fish Then there is the striker,
who stands on small stand at the
head of the bowsprit to iron the fish
