GREAT YEAR FOR TARPoN.
Big Catches of the Worlds Greatest
Fish Are Now Of Daily
Occurrence.

This year is the greatest In the his
tory Of tarpon fishing. and big catches
are being daily reported from the home
waters of the worlds gamest OF game
fish. which lie along the east and west
| Florida coasts and through the entire
| length and breadth OF the Gulf OF Mex
| leo. Hundreds of expert anglers from
all parts of the United States. and even
few from abroad. are now in the
south enjoying the grand sport, reports
the Chicago Chronicle. The present
season, which is now at its height. hav-
ing opened with the first of May. has
already seen the breaking of all pre-
vious records for catches. with bright
prospects that more will be shattered
before IL comes 10 an end.
Plentiful as the fish are in all south
ern waters, of the southeastern coast
OF Florida. around and between the nu-
merous little Islands or keys which
there abound, the waters are fairly
teeming with the silvery-sided mon
sters. which are so numerous that they
at times actually roughen the water for
wide stretches. and expert fishermen are
OF the unanimous opinion that never be-
fore have there been more tarpon in evil
dence than at the present time.
This can also be said OF the tarpon's
most persistent enemies. the sharks,
which have gathered In great numbers
TO attack the unfortunate tarpon the
moment he allows himself TO be hooked.
and thus is rendered powerless TO pro-
tect himself. II is said the greatest COM
petition exists between the fisherman
who has hooked tarpon and the
sharks to see who will ultimately get
the fish. for the sharks are so bold AMI
they find the tarpon 50 toothsome that
there are instances where they have
snapped a tarpon from the very gan OF
the fisherman as the struggling fish
has been brought alongside OF the boat.
and it can never really be said that a
tarpon has been caught until II is safely
landed on the beach.
The tarpon is beyond question the
greatest game fish in the world barring
none. say those who are best able 10
Judge
Many advocates and admirers there
may be Of the salmon. the trout the
giant tuna. the drum. the bass and bara-
couda. but after all the consensus OF
opinion of expert anglers awards TO the
tarpon the palm as King Of game fish.
Exercising every iota Of the strength.

CARING FOR FEEBLE MINDS
Germany Is in Condition TO Instruct
Other Countries in
This Line.

Modern Hospitals for the Insane"
is the subject Of an illustrated report
by United States Consul General Ma
son at Berlin. Among the valuable les
sons. says he, which most other ma
tons can advantageously learn from
the experience and practice Of Germany
is the scientific treatment Of insanity
in its incipient stages as physical and
possibly durable disease.
Notwithstanding the rapid and de-
plorable increase OF mental diseases
which has followed the stress and strain
OF modern business and social life. IL
must be admitted that In the United
States. and even in Great Britain, gov
ernmental benefcence has not pro-
gressed beyond the eleemosynary func-
ton OF providing ssylums in which the
more or less hopelessly incurable vic
tins OF insanity, who have become a
burden and menace 20 their friends, can
drag out in safety and physical comfort
the remnants of their stricken lives.
II here and there private clinic has
made a hopeful beginning with the
pathological treatment OF mental dis
eases II has been due TO individual ini-
tiative and the ministratlons Of such
institutions are restricted mainly TO
patients OF the well-to.do class leaving
the great majority of poor unfortunates
to drift on to a stage OF mental aliena-
ton to which they become dangerous
to themselves and those about them.
and therefore entitled TO the attention
and support OF the state. Germany has
taken long and important step beyond
this. and TO give simple statement OF
the means employed and some OF the
results attained is the motive and pur-
pose OF the present report.
There are in this country 22 psychi-
atrical clinics. or hospitals for the
treatment of mental diseases Most ad-
vanced and worthy Of study are those
located at Kiel. Giessen, Strasburg. Ber-
lin. and latest and most important Of
all. the new clinic at Munich, which, In
all that relates to perfection OF equip
ment and arrangement as we'll as to the
scientific enlightenment Of methods
employed. stands undoubtedly at the
head OF all institutions Of its class in this

NOT A TEMPERANCE DRINK
A Physicians Views as TO the R-rm-

Other Alcoholic Beverages.

Or. John Madden. one Of the leading
physicians OF Milwaukee. Wis, writes
as follows:
1t is quite probable that a vast ma
iority OF people regard beer a. a COM
paratively innocuous drink II Is a very
common experience to hear places ia
which beer and the lighter wines are
sold spoken OF with approval even b.

beer Is temperance drink.

~ We estimate the alcoholic content u

average drink OF beer at eight ounces,
each drink would furnish little more
than nvo-eIghths as much alcohol IS
an ordinary drink OF spirits
We see. therefore. thar u1th'uc is
gained for temperance by substituting
beer Tor spirits on the ground that ihe
former contains smaller amount az
