tered salmon net recently at Naburn.
near York. In the river Ouse, some
thirty-fve miles or SO from the sea.
1t made short work Of the salmon
net. but one OF the fishermen loaded a
gun and fired at the unfortunate
whale. On the following day 1t was
found stranded in shallow water at
Cawood, not far from Selby. 1t was
tnen hauled up on to a lorry and ex-
hibtted round the countryside by its
-captors. It weighed ten hundred
weight. measured = little over IL feet
In length. and the expense of the tail
was ; feet inches. 1t was q beau
tifui creamy white color when saw It
and propped open its jaws with .
stick. It had evidently come up 70
mr. from the sea in pursuit Of the
salmon. According to Bell" In the
White Sea 1t is very common, and q
regular fishery is carried on in the
spring and summer At Sofia, near the
mouth OF the river .Dvina. It pos
sesses NO dorsal I'M. and. like most
members Of the family, It is gregari.

skin Affords very useful leather. and
tts blubber yields oil Of excellent quail
ity. Its flesh is said to be much val
ued In Greenland. In the quaint lam
guage OF Egede, "It has no bad taste,
and when marinated with vinegar and
salt. 1t is as well tasted as any pork
whatever; the inns also and the tail,
picked or sauced. are very good eat

Says a newspaper published in In

ing festival Of the Hindoos, was OBJ
served on the night Of the list of May.
Immense crowds from all parts of the
country repaired to Hardwar to bathe
in the Ganges on the occasion. The
giving away to Brahmans Of rice,
sweets, clothes and utensils on the oc-
casion is considered meritorious, and
the festival must have proved wind

the festival was celebratd in a beflt

About the tree,
From rose to rose,
The humble bee
A bumbling goes;
And oft he throws
This catch sublime:
While clover glows
IT'S summertime.
His ira la lee,
Serenely flows
While whirling free;
And while he blows
His horn or nose
In notes that rhyme.
When well he trows
'Tis summertime.
Upon spree
He gayer grows
And ducks, care free,
The garden hose,

At MONDAY prime
And twilight's close
