tIBuruing the Water"

Some readers will remember the spir-

Mannering" Of the form Of salmon fish
ing that used to be known as burning
the water" It was favorite amuse-
ment in England, Scotland and Wales.
The practice is no longer legal and can
be indulged in only at the risk Of pen
alties, with the disgrace which at
taches to things denounced as un-
sportsmanlike. Torches were used, and
the salmon were speared by the thrust
Of a weapon having barbed prongs,
called a lester. Scott again may be
quoted for his description Of the spear
ing of salmon from horseback in the
Solway. The Tweed, which was the
river of his lifelong affections, was
one Of the worst sufferers from "burn-
ing the water" in the days when 1t
was. permitted, and it was computed
that thousands Of salmon were annual
" taken by this form Of capture. The
water may be burned" even now here
and there, and in Wales a few years
AGO there was a short lived revival OF
the practice.

Liquor selling is monopoly OF the
State of South Carolina. Anybody can
get whiskey who wants it. The State
supplies dispensaries anywhere, and they
are freely patronized. When the system
was started it was said it would be a
temperance measure to limit sales. But
the sales, which began with two or three
hundred thousand dollars, have grown to
1884, ,76s last year, with a net profit to
the State of $6O3, 1898, of which sum $3O4,- :
$50 was paid over to the school fund.
Public vice was found an easy and profit
able way to support public education.
