in the Pacific there are six varieties
of salmon, five of which are found along
the American coasts, and the other one
in Japan. All these fish belong to the
genus oncorhynchus, and are quite dis
tinct from the salmo salar which is
found in the Atlantic ocean. The last
named species has habits very similar
to those Of the European salmon, but
the Pacific salmon are supposed never
to seed In fresh water; consequently
they are rot 10 be caught in the rivers
with rod and iiEe. although anumber
OF them afford sport when trolling In
Ne tidal waters at the river mouths.
A more remarkable theory, whicnis uni
versally acknowledged to be a fact, IL
that nearly all these countless millions
OF fish. which annually ascend the rivers
to spawn. perish miserably after having
spawned, and never live to return to the
sea. If evidence in support of this the
ory is required. a visit in the fall of the
year to the banks of any lake or stream
where the salmon spawn will convince
the unbeliever. The sight of millions of
dead and dying salmon and the awful
smell arising therefrom, leave little to
the Imagination of the sectator.
First in importance, as regards its
size. and value in the market, among the
Pacific salmon may be reCkoned the king

passionate love for freedom, and when
Austria sent over to their country
German officials TO take the place OF

intense patriotism was inspired; Hun

was reached when the demand was
made that the Hungarian soldiers re

with artful diplomacy, made conces'

It was in 1857 that Hungary, much
harassed and weakened by savage OF

and many Americans have informed me
that they have seen these fish exceed
80 pounds on the scales. Personally, |
have never seen one of 80 pounds taken
from the nets; and, moreover, the fol-
lowing statement was made to me by
Mr.. H. M. Wetherbee the manager of a
large cannery in Cooks Inlet. Alaska.
He said that, although he was for Is
years in charge of a Cannery on the Co
iumbia river, and had been since then
some 12 years in Alaska, he had never
seen a king salmon which exceeded 80
,iounds when placed on the scales. And
this was the more remarkable, since
throughout the whole of that time there
was an offer on his part, which still
holds good, TO present the sum of $50 to
any person who could bring one Of these
fish to him which exceeded so pounds

fdently stated on good authority that
this salmon does occasionally reach 100
pounds that we may suppose that such
is the case.
The King salmon runs principally in

Hungary is the oldest constitutional
nent. In Austria the constitution Is
the gift of the emperor. Hungary has
for centuries been liberal Austria con
seryative. Hungary has led Europe in
social and religious freedom. Austria
is conseryative-reactionary.
Thus we have liberal nation in Ger

one, the latter endeavoring TO impress
upon the former that which spells to
her people retrogression, The Hun
garians assert that whatever of con
stitutional rights Austrians enjoy to-
day have come to them through the ef-
forts of Hungary, not from within. II
has long been understood that Franz
Joseph's personal popularity has been
the slender bond holding the two coun-
tries; and all Europe trembles now

matte, is forgetting tact and liberation

of calamities during the last 30 years.
