Hope Creek Ripples,

April Give are once more settled
down amid magnificent scenery in our
palatial homes along this historic creek
where bloody battles have been fought,
tho history does not give mention to
them, nor have / the time, but will give
full details later which the historical
world will be glad to receive, and will all
exclaim, Cali Hail to the new writer OF
history"
We were the last to arrive, but not the

the demeanor of the d~isconsolate. an OBJ
ject of pity. Job in all of his misery
will form no comparison. Some are
almost weeping and others do dramatic
stunts in the funeral line, some have the
impassive indifference as to there being
alive. Now | will try and tell you the
cause OF all the trouble and trouble it is.
The chief trouble is the distractions
both in the eastern and western fishing
grounds. The American Dredging Co.,
by the direction of the Government is
digging out the channel, as you all know.
1t is doing this not because it is a per.
manent good, but to please a few foreign
nomads and a diabolical organization
called the Pilots Association. To assist
in their work they have to have the emp.
ty mud barges near the dredging ma
chimes and to do this in the eastern chan.
mel they have planted two buoys to
which barges are attached right in the
middle of the drift about 2 miles a part,
effectually shutting off fishing on that
ground. In the western drift there is a
row of poles driven into the ground fol
the distance of 5 miles right in the drift.
On Tuesday evening my father and a
delegation consisting Of about fifteen fish.
ermen waited on Chief Engineer Heron
to see about the removal of the barge
buoys and he gave us some
| ment as to the removal, but we cannoi
tell as to whether it will be done. I will
let you know about it in the next issue,
If they are not removed it will mean q
loss of 500, 900 to the fishermen OF this
creek. My father is to go on the Gov

row and see where We can put them to
best advantage.
There are about go nets this year where.
| as last year there were only 40, which
| means much more crowding in fishing,
There are very few fish caught yet We
took a small dip Monday and caught Sc
which was high. VIM. Clark caught
sturgeon in his shad net to-day.
None of us have made expenses, but
then l am not fishing for money, only
for my health and the pleasure derived
ont of it. Nothing is no more bracine

To Raise Pea Patch.

BY raising the banks Of Pea Patch Is
land, on which is located the principal
defense OF the river, Fort Delaware, pro.
vision is being made for a place of de-
post for 1000, 900 cubic yards OF the ma
terial which is to be removed during the
coming summer from the Salem Cove
Shoals. The work was begun on the
29th OF March, and will be completed by
the time the dredges are at work in this
part Of the river.
One of the difficulties that Major James
G. Sanford, United States engineer in
charge of the work, has found is the lack
Of sufficient dumping ground.
The great artificial island in the lower
part of the river furnishes a place for ma
terial raised from the lower shoals, and
the revetment at Edgemoor will in time
furnish a place for that to be taken from
Cherry Island flats. But unless auxiliary
places are provided long hauls to these
two dumping grounds would he neces-
sary from some of the shoal places, and
their capacity would soon be overtaxed.
Major Sanford has adopted the policy
OF using marshy parts of the islands and
the mainland to meet this need. The
expense of raising the banks of Pea
Patch Island will be very small, and new,
firm land will be made when the material
is deposited.
Marsh land at Fort Dupont is also to
be used, and will provide a place for
500, 900 cubic yards.

Chesapeake Shad Plentiful.

Shad appeared in large numbers in the
Chesapeake Bay last week. In conse.
quence the market is easier. Fish were
late in arriving, and high prices prevail
ed on when there were few to be had.
Near the mouth of the Rappahannock
River L. A. Saunders and B. A. Croas-
dale caught 1900 shad at one lift last
week, and A. H. George caught 1,4OO.
Harper Bros. one day had more shad in
their nets than han their gasoline boat
would carry. s.. P. Simmons caught2 2, 100
at II lift and a number of others did
equally well. These fish were all caught
in Pound nets OF traps, their being lie
gill nets used in that locality.

The Junior League of Emmanuel
Church were given a holiday last Satur-
day afternoon, the object in view, was to
allow time for rehearsal of Easter pro-
gramme. The children found pastor
Boyd on the streets, and demanded that
he come in and be eggs-cused. Meekly
submitting to the juvenile orders, he
walked in, and wa forthwith compelled
to accept a basket, containing nearly 8
score of fresh laid eggs, from little Miss
Alva Dolbow, she having collected every
one of them from the members of the
League.
Pastor Boyd was surprised and declar-
ed he was almost ready to eggs-pire with
confusion at receiving such an egg-cellent
gilt. Eggs-it pastor with eggs.
