POINTS ABOUT THE SALMON
The biography Of This Game Fish Ii
PILED with Pulling
Blanks.

Who knows the way Of the eagle
in the air. or Of the salmon in the
sea? OF all fish the most tantaliZ-
ing, be has been the life study Of
thousands Of men, writes Frederic
Irland, in Scribner's. Yet how lit
tie anyone really knows about him
and how conflicting is the testi-
mony as to what is knownl Ifyo1
want to get the idea that there is
no such thing as abstract truth,
you can form that opinion quick
" by sitting in front of the fire
place in a fishing club some eve
ming when the most experienced
members are present and feel like
talking. There is scarcely any
proposition connected with the
life history of this fish upon which
any two men of 40 or 50 years. ex-
perience in salmon fishing will
agree. The biography Of the fish
is filed with puzzling blanks. You
catch a glimpse of him in his in
fancy. He mysteriously disap-
pears, returns during adolescence,
and then is gone again until, on
his third appearance, the infant
has grown to be fully mature.
Who would think the childish
smolt Of a few ounces, that slips
quietly down river in the early
spring, could come back in the
same summer in the pride Of youth
as three Of four pound grilse?
And the next time he goes, upon
what meat doth he feed, that he
jumps to maturity and ten pounds
weight? What ports does he visit
while he is of on his deep-sea
cruise? Where does be keep the
chart by which, after his fsr-away
wandeTings, he unerringly re-
turns to his birthplace7 And why
do many grilse come TO some riv-
ers and comparatively few or none
to others? In Miramichi waters
there are in August ten grilse TO
every full-growD salmon. In the
Tobique there are scarcely any
grilse at all.

In China they do things differ

in which a missionary was muir

must produce the murderers with

along on a charger. This method
would insure a strict enforcement
of law anywhere, were it not for
the simple expedient adopted by
the Chinese official. He chops off
a couple of heads and sends them
to Peking by express with a mes
sage saying that the skulls once
belonged to the murderers and an
