SAVING THE LOBSTER.

Good Work Of the Newfoundland b.
psrtmsns of Fxheriss.
The Newfoundland department of
marine and fisheries Is now operated
very much on the same lines a. The
Canadian, though, of course. on a much
smaller scale. 1t was first organized a.
fisheries commission" in 1890,
previous to which date there was NO
public department specially charged
with the supervision of the fisheries
The last annual report of the depart
ment contains some Information which

explain that this propagation is car
ried on by means OF floating incuba-
tors, the invention of Mr.. Nelson
Two hundred and fifty of these incu-
bators are occupied by fifty men
around the shores of the great bays.
There is no other country where the
artificial propagation of this valuable
crustacean is carried on upon such
an extensive scale-not excepting the
I United States or Norway 1t is well
known that in nearly every lobster
producing country this favortte crus-
tacean is threatened with extermina-
ton. The quantity secured each year
is lessening and the price advancing

exception to the decline in the lobster
fishery. The export each year is les
SEEMING, though the number of hands
employed in taking it has doubled.
The size too, is diminishing in most
districts. The report states the ex-
port for 1889 as sc. 1856 cases: value,
$565,O00. In the previous year the ex-
port was 81 ,951 cases; value, $6l9,51O.
The department is using the most
vigorous measures to arrest the de-
cline; but the due enforcement of the
rules in regard to the size Of Holsters
taken and the spaces between the
laths in the traps is very difficult. The
department has recently prohibited
fall fishing-a wise measure which
already seems to be attended with
good results and meets general ap-
prevail both among fishermen and
packers. The report states that there
is "a marked improvem ent in the
mode Of packing and a much better
article than formerly is produced
though there is still great room for
improvement" Montreal Gazette

MUD HEN EGGS FOR CHICAGO.
Industry bot Ltstic Known Money
Producer for Hunters of
Burenu Comfy.

Green river hen fruit" will soon be-
gin to make its appearance in Chicago.
This is an Illinois product of which Chi
cagoans partake without knowing
what they are eating. Green river "hen
fruit" is the egg of mud hen. Mud
hen is the common name of the Ameri-
can coot, or Virginian rail, says Chi
cage paper.
During the month of May is the busy
season of the mud hen; likewise of the
individuals who make liyingrobbing
her nest. The hens. in large numbers.
frequent the marshes of the Green and
Illinois rivers. They nest in swarms.
on punches of drift. and here they are
easily found by the egg hunters, who
find ready market in Chicago for all
of their offerings. A Green river
hunter last year gathered 1000 dozen
eggs in three weeks, clearing SEQ for
his labor. The price last year netted
six cents dozen.
Nearly all of the eggs are taken in
Bureau county. They are coated in the
same manner as the product of the
barnyard fowl, and are sold TO rest aur-
ant men and confectioners. It's said
TO be an easy matter for an egghunter
acquainted with the haunts and habits
Of the mud hen to take from 500 TO 500
dozen eggs in single season.

The consequence was that whenever a

were good sprinters and the rabbit was
generally caught. but every episode OF
that kind meant the loss of at least
half an hours time. There were
great many rabbits on the plantation,

frequent that the foreman finally real

Tonight" with SO much effect that
one OF the sailors, boy OF about 20.
came forward to her ut the conclusion
of the service and declared that the
song, as rendered by her. had deter
mined him to lead n different life, and
that he intended to write to his
mother to that effect on that same
night. He give Miss Long one of his
cards on which he wrote: MAY God
bless you for showing one sinner the
true light" Miss Long carries the
card in her purse MS a keepsake Of
her first mission work.
Since her return to Boston from
California Miss Long has been en-.
gagged In church singing. She visited
Washington last winter, and by In
vitation sang several selections be-
fore President and Mrs. Mckinley.
Personally. Miss Long is young
woman of much charm and magnet
ism. Her enthusiasm in her work
proceeds from sincere conviction
that her voice can be made powerful
influence for good in connection with
evangelical and temperance work.
Her voice is a rich, deep contralto.
At the age of II she was brought
out as a concert singer in Portland,
Me-. by Annie Louise Carey. Her
singing then showed great promise
and her friends urged her to make
the operate stage her aim. Her fam
lily discouraged this, however. and
Miss Long took up concert singing. In
which she has been successful.
