MAKING MONEY ON THE SIDE.
How Many English CIergymen Increase
Their Incomes,

How Many English ~Clergymen Increase
Their Incomes.
From the London Mail: AS the topic
OF the remuneration of the clergy is
very much to the fore just now, and
is even being made the subject Of pos
sible legislation, it will doubtless be
interesting to mention a few instances
in which the reverend gentlemen have
not waited for parliamentary interior
ence, but set about increasing their
slender incomes in their own way. OF
course the most popular form their
efforts take is usually hat of contribu-
tons to various magazines, and it is
safe to say that there are dozens, if
not hundreds, of the clergy who earn
an appreciable amount in this way.
The writing and composing of hymns
is also a method closely allied to the
foregoing. One rector in Norfolk fig
ures as a nurseryman in his spare time,
his speciality being roses, and many
visitors to the Breads will doubtless
remember the sight his garden affords
from the river in Towering time. That
he finds it yields profit as we'll as pleas
ure is evidenced by the fact that he
spends nearly G1OO per annum simply
to advertise his various roses and other
plants for sale. Another cleric, whose
living is IN the country of Nottingham,
also let's his supplementary pecuniary
efforts run in the direction of. horti-
culture, his particular fancy being
zonal pelargoniums and geraniums,
which are OF first-rate quality. AL
though not sold under his name, a GER
tain paste for rejuvenating silk hats is
the invention of a Church of England
minister, who directs a snug little bust
ness in it through the medium of a re-
lation who poses as a proprietor. Down
in Surrey n of the cloth employs his
spare time in rearing prize strains of
poultry, to which he has lately added
canaries as a source of further profit.
In the southwestern counties, which
are rich in minerals, small collections
of geological specimens are formed,
named and sold by clergymen to stu
dents who are in want of such things.
AS much of this business is done
through the medium of advertisement,
the cleric suffers no loss of prestige if
he does not let his name appear. Bee
farming was taken up by a clergyman
in Essex, but up to the present does
not appear to have been a particular
success. 1t will be seen that it is
necessary to live in the country to
carry out most of these schemes effec-
lively. For the overworked, u~nderpaid
city curate there seems to be nothing
that he can turn his attention to.

age, when most women are tenderly

her with great mental gifts, but she
had no time left in which to give her
best work to the world. Instead, hastily
written novels, biographies and anony-

Driven Into Enormous Nets in the Medi-
t%errdnedn and Sloshed to Death.

One of the most thrilling and won
.derful sights is that of the funny fish
cries in the Mediterranean sea. The
pursuit of these great and swift fish is
not a mere tame operation of netting.
1t is a fight between man and sea
creatures such as is duplicated nowhere
except in the whale fisheries. The
funny is a huge mackerel. He is a
3, Gaceous fish, and his course through
TIC seas is that of a destroyer without
parallel. So deadly is the funny to the
schools of herring and similar food
fish that he is called the herring hog.
In our waters he is known more gem
orally as the horse mackerel. The tun-
ny fisheries are distinctly European,
and they are the oldest industry that is
known in the Mediterranean sea. To
capture them men must band them
selves together in large bodies, for fish

One of the Worlds Injustices Tina
Should Be Righted.
Why is the tone in which one says,
of a self-made man, HE used to drive
a fish CART distinctly more favorable
than that with which one says, "You
know, his father was only a fish ped
dler?" 1t is considered quite a compli-
ment, among sensible people, to con
trast the past depths of a man with his
present heights, says the New York
Commercial Advertiser. On the other
hand, even among not at all snobbish
persons, there is a suspicion of con
tempt in referring to a mans ances-
tors when speaking Of his present af-
fuence or success. 1t really ought tc
be the other way; for it is far easier to
change ones self than to change ones
family; and similarly to rise from a
family is harder than to rise from
merely ones own individuality, if both
the family and the individuality are
equally unprepossessing in the begin
ming. This is one of those injustices

the necessities and luxuries of life.
They were indolent and willing to be
idle, and dropped one by n into the
grave, leaving not one piece of honest
work behind them to justify their lives.
Was it altogether their fault? There
are countless homes in this country
where unseIfish men or women are sac
riicing themselves to support some I'M
worthy Sol or brother. The world
calls them martyrs, but is it Gods
work they are doing If not, whose?

harried fish. Then there are loud
screams from his companions and cries
of duplication from him as he calls
to his patron saint, for it is no joke to
fall among those mighty bodies that
are dashing around in their death
throes.
So the fight continues till in that in
closed space of sea there is not a fish
alive. Every boat is half full of water
and loaded down with living silver,
where the Slim, piratical bodies of the
fish lie. The inhabitants of the town
near the scene of this fishing make a
fete day out of the arrival of the tun-
nu, for it means food and employment
for many hundreds of men, ONE
and children. The fish is a favorite
article of food, especially when sailed,
and the roe is a great delicacy, which
brings fancy prices. The tunnies that
The Dupuyer acantha. [volume] (Dupuyer, Mont.) 1894-1904, 1900-03-01

ermen singly could do nothing with
these fish, which grow to a length of
ten feet and weigh over half a ton
sometimes. Therefore there is a sys-
TEN of cooperation on the coasts that
are visited by the funny, a system
which dates back to the Phoenicians,
who were great funny catchers in their
time. The perfection of this system
is due, among other things, to the fact
hat the big fish have absolutely regu-
lar habits. In normal times they can
be relied on to make their appearance
at certain periods almost to the minute.
When they come it is in huge schools
that can be seen afar, for they scour
the waters like ships of war, and the
leapings of their prey and the leapings
of their own bulky bodies beat the
deep into white foam and lather.
Since they are so exact in their
habits, the fishermen prepare for them
always before they arrive. At some
designated spot are spread enormous
nets, exceedingly deep and made of
the strongest of line. These are not
designed to catch the tunnies. They
are spread out merely to force the fish
to edge in and in, until they are led
to the real prison net, which is a vast
'cOntrivance, set in an immense square
and powerful enough to defy anything
that swims. AS soon as the last of the
school has entered this box-like en-
closure, the sides of the great net are
raised at a signal. AT first the impris-
,oned fish do not show any signs of
alarm. But as the net rises, inch by
inch, from the water depths, cleaning,
'sword-like backs appear here and there
upon the surface darting with incredi-
BILE sWiftness from side to side of the
net. Each instant more of these living
blades appear above the surface. Then
the fish begin to leap. Here one
launches himself straight out of the
water, 500 pounds of glorious life to-
ward the sky, to crash back into the
sea with a f1ail-like blow of sides and
tail that makes the ocean echo. Another
and another rises and falls back. Soon
the scene is as if the abysses of the sea
were %spouting their inhabitants. for
hundreds of immense s~ilver-fashing
fish rise everywhere at once within the
net.
But now a new element enters. Long
narrow fishing boats push into the in
closure. In them stand brown men
with lances and spears and big knives
dashed to poles. Then begins a fight
that is terrible to see. The men thrust
naadly into the struggling masses of
fish. The fish leap and roll and dive
and leap again, %hammering the sea
with tails that turn like the screws of
steamships, and whiten the waves with
foem. Before many minutes boats and
men are drenched with bloody water
The surface of the ocean is red. Out of
the smoking spray peer faces now and
then that are dabbled with blood till
they look scarcely human. Now and
then a man slips and falls among the

Joseph Wheeler arrived in tbs city this

TO the war department this afternoon.
In the absence OF Secretary Root he re-
ported formally to Adjutant-General
Corbin, thus complying with the order
from the department which brought
him from Manila. The general was in
the uniform OF brigadier- general Of

picture OF health; better than when he
left Washington for Manila.
He gave General Corbin brief de-
scription OF the conditions in Luzon.
He insisted that the war is over, and
that nothing more is TO be done except
TO run down few guerrillas and irreg-
ulars. There is Difficulty in this work,
he said, and there is danger. too, but
its prosecution is not war" Ambus-
cades were frequent and annoying, and
1t was not easy to tell whether the hid

men had been mistaken for company
in some cases.
The general said that the American
troops are doing splendid work there.
They are sound and healthy, and in
quite as good shape as they would be
at home, engaged in similar service.
This is owing in mesaure to the ex.
cellent care for their men exhibited by

THE CUBAN pRosLEM.
VIII BE Taken Up when Puerto Rico IL
Out OF the Way.


Out OF the Way.
New York, March ia special to
the Times from Washington says:
Four weeks hence, the year allowed by
the treaty OF peace with Spain for the
Spanish inhabitants Of Cuba to decide
whether they will be Cuban or Spanish
citizens will expire. Immediately
after that date. April IL, according to
the plan laid down by the administra-
tion at the opening of the present ses-
sion OF congress, preparations are to be
made for the holding of municipal cleo
tions and ultimately for the election OF
a convention which will decide upon
the Cuban form of government. To
that government, according to the
original programme, the United States
is to surrender the control OF the island.
Whether that programme will be car.
ried out in its entirety cannot certainly
be said. The senate committee on
Cuban affairs has the matter before it.
The plan was Senator Foraker's, and
he secured the consent OF the admins
tration to it at time when powerful
interests were contending for differ
ent policy, and when they had pro-
gIessed 50 far that the plan had been
announced to the public as the presi-
dents plan. Senator Foraker is conf
dent that it will be adopted. and it is
understood that this is the reason why
he is so anxious for the immediate
adoption of a civil government for
Puerto Rico, with or without q tariff
annex. He wants Puerto Rico out OF
the way. it is said, in time for the big
ger Cuban problem to have free field.
Senator Platt, Of Connecticut, has
started for Cuba with Senators Aldrich
and Teller. Senator Platt is chairman
of committee on relations with Cuba,
and he, with Senators Aldrich and
Teller, form a subcommittee which
has been delegated to go to Cuba and
study the situation. Nothing has been
said about the duration of the stay the
three senators will make. 1t Is under
stood, however, that their visit relates
to the plebiscite of April IL.

which the Beers regard their women,
