Susquehanna Fisheries.

The shad fishing season just clos.
ed along the Susquehanna has prov
en- a very poor one. While prices
were high, shad selling at $1S to
500 per 100, few were caught. The
operations of the United States
Fish Commission at the Battery
Station, six miles below Havre de
Grace, closed Saturday. The sup
ply of shad eggs was very small as
compared with former years, from
the fact that shad were scarce and
they did not ripen. The weather
being cold during the season, the
shad kept in deep water, and it
was very unusual to find one suffi-
ciently ripe for stripping. The
total supply of eggs for the season
was about 20,O0O,0OO, while two
yss sars ago the number was 3OO,-
100000. The total of shad hatched
by Maryland State agents in the
rivers of the Eastern Shore was
20,OOO,OOO.

A Well Known Young Man.

Mr.. Ed. Lachman, formerly n of
the best known young men In Reno.
now II mining man OF Torres, State of
Sonora, Mexico. wrote the following
statement which will explain itself:
"While wheeling down II steep grade
near Virginia City, | had n fall which
severely sprained the muscles and
tendons about my right hip and so
bruised my knee that it was swollen,
discolored and painful to the touch.
That evening | procured II bottle of
Trib and applied it. The next day |
could walk and ride easily, and after
using Trib twice a day for four conse-
cutive days l was completely cured.
l never before knew the value OF n
good liniment. / shall not be with
out a bottle Of Trib hereafter. Use
my name if you see fit. Trih is II
good article, the knowledge Of which
| am willing to aid in spreading.
EDMUND LACHMAN."
A year later Mr.. Lachman said:
"The cure was permanent. Trib is
all right"
