LANDS END SARDINES.
How the Fishermen of Cornwall Net
Pilchards for the Markets of
Great Britain.

The old debate as to whether pill
chards are not identical with sardines
has now been decided in the affirma-
tive, says the Pail Mall Gazette. Ac-
cording to Mr.. Aflalo, the word sar-
dine must be taken to mean indefi ,
nitely small fish preserved in oil,
and not as an individual species. This
small fish may be pilchard or it may
be a sprat. That is to say, natural
lists do not recognize a fish called the
sardine; the word merely signifies a
method of preparation. The point
may be disputed, but cannot be con-
troverted. Visitors to Cornwall
sometimes deny it on the ground that
the pilchards shown them are larger
than the average sardine, but they
should remember that the fish are
usually packed minus head and tail,
which means a considerable diminu
ton in size.
For centuries this transformation
of pilchards into sardines has been
going on. We read in Moryson's
Itinerary" book familiar to Shake
speare's day, that ''the inhabitants
of Cornwall make great gain by the
fishing of pilchards, which they salt
and dry in the smoke, and export an
huge multitude of them yearly into
Spain and Italy," This practice Of
smoking them gave the fish the name
of fumadoes, corrupted locally into
"fair maids"
IT'S the silver fair maids that cause such
a strife
'Twixt the master-seiaer and his drunken
wife. I'll
The fish are not preserved in this
manner now, but are piled and
pressed in layers of salt. Being thor
oughly sailed and relieved of SUI
perfiuous fluids they are taken from
the fish cellars and dispatched in bar
rels to the local or foreign 'sardin-
ers:!' The difference in size between
these Cornish "sardines' and those
caught on the coasts of France is
really result of difference in net
ting, not in the species of the fish.
The Cornish fishers use a net with a
comparatively large mesh, this let
ting the smaller and more delicate
fish escape; but the French, with a
closer mesh, pay special attention to
the smaller fish. The men of ST. Ives
and Newlyn are very conservative, as
will be remembered by their agita-
ton on the Sunday question; but the
adoption of closer mesh would be a
move in the right direction.

Sitting a Waltz.

The young people who indulge in
the giddy mazes Of the waltz will
hear with interest that the heads of
Washington and New York societies
have declared that sitting waltz"
will be more fashionable from now
on than dancing. The .'sitting out"
embodies the same position as dane
ing, the only difference is that you
sit Instead of dance. The mans
right arm is around the girls waist
while his left hand holds her right.
Her right hand is placed upon his
shoulder while her head rests loving
ly upon bis bosom, and all they have
to do is TO sit and listen to the music.
Now that is like it. We have always
regarded it as quite nuisance to
have to gallop mile or two to get a
hug or two. A room full Of people
sitting on sofas hugging to music is
more To our notion. This will give
the old rheumatic brethren another
good chance to waltz. PIT. Pleasant

HEINOUS CRIME
Nine Year old Priscilla White
Assaulted.
The Awful Crime is Thought to Have
Been Committed by an Italian-Sus-
pect Landed in Jail-Child Badly
Lacerated.

This afternoon between TWO and
three o'clock, Priscilla, the nine
year old daughter of Ed White, who
lives in East Morgantown on the out
skires of the town, was assaulted by
an unknown man and terribly out
ragged.
The little girl with her six year
old sister Ellen were playing under
an apple tree about 300 yards from
their home, and out of sight of any
residence when the heinous crime
was committed
According to the little girls story
the outrage was committed by an
Italian with a straw hat, small brtm.
a red and white shirt and black pants.
When he came to the scene little
Ellen ran TO the house and was fol-
lowed shortly after by Priscilla. DR.
Gardner was called and after an ex-
animation states that she is terribly
lacerated and that several stitches
will have to be taken.
The father of the child Ed White
is employed at Rogers STONE quar-
ry and had not arrived home at 500
p. m. His son had been sent to in
form him of the crime
The family which consists of Mr..
and Mrs. White, a grown daughter,
an eleven year old boy and three
small girls, moved here late in
March from Cheat.
Officer Shoemaker arrested an
Italian boy about 16 years of age at
the Deeker's Creek bridge and he was
brought to the sheriff's office but an
examination of his person failed TO
show the least indications that he is
guilty. He has been taken to the
White home that the little girl may
have an opportunity to identify him.
The boy does not speak English and
came here few days ago from Union
town where he has brother
TO an interpreter he said he had
taken a job at the brick yard, but
did not like the work. He cannot
give a straight story as to how he
came to be near the bridge, however.
