In this age of statistics, when everything
from poetry TO shoemaking has been turned
into figures and made the subject of COM
parative tables, 1t is cheerful to find some
thing that has escaped the man with the
mathematical mind.
1t is queer, too, that this thing in particu-
lar should have eluded everybody. including
even the census getherers; for it is some
thing that occupies the attention, time and
thought of more persons than perhaps any
other one thing in the whole United States
not connected with business.
This censusless and statisticless thing is
the ancient and virtuous sport of fishing.
1t Is the shyest of all sports, and that is
why it has never been put into a dry table
full of dollar signs. There is no public form
that it's activities take.
You may search in vain for references to
fishing for sport in the criminal statistics Of
the country Those criminal statistics tell
of evil men arrested in all sorts of unusual
ways-whle in church, while in bed, while
driving. while in the bosons of their fami-
lies or OF their most sacred clubs: but who
ever heard of man being arrested for
crime while fishing?
You will look in vain. too in the statistics
that tell what men spend. You will find
there what they Spend for their wives

1t Is always a question what object per-
son could have for purloinng a famous
work Of art. To sell 1t without detection
would be about impossible, and to keep 1t

illustration of this fact was found in the
conduct Of an unknown person who stole
from the old Corcoran Gallery q little

that the sculpture was screwed to a wooden

One OF the most interesting sections OF
the international exhibition at Rome this
year is declared to be a section given over
exclusively to paintings by French artists
who won the Prix de Rome from the year
1874 TO the present day. including. of course,
works by Henner and Chartran among the
moderus. The contest for this much
coveted prize brought out, we are told
better collection of paintings than usual
this year. The subject. contrary to the GUS
tomary rule, was taken from the sixth
Ecologue Of Virgil, wherein are related the
pranks played by pair Of shepherds and
a nymph upon the old topper Silemis, and
the interpretations in almost every instance
were extremely good.
Fifteen travelling scholarships are about
to be endowed by the French government
for the benefit of her student citizens. In
comparison with the Prix de Rome they
are small. amounting to only $500 each, but
they are sufficient to give the holders
glimpses of Florence. Venice and Rome,
and to make them acquainted with the
works of the old Italian masters-and this.
indeed, Is a boon.

Fishing Getting Better.

Every year the fishing is getting better
that is, the fishing in the United States as
a whole. OF course there are specific places
where conditions make the sport poorer
every year; but in general. the attitude of
the United States toward fishing for sport
has been the colby practical one, that the
value of a game fish for mere food IS as
nothing compared TO his value for attract
ing dollars out of the anglers pockets.

Maine. OF course. is the leader in this
form of government industry. Every year
the country is flooded with literature about
the great trout and togue there. State laws
govern the time and method Of fishing In
almost every stream and pool as carefully
as other states govern the methods or

bank scandals. It is PRETTY certain that
It is harder and more dangerous to get
trout Illegally in Maine than II is to get
dollars Illegally in the state of New York.
In Maine the law says not only that you
must not take trout at certain seasons.
but that you must not fish for them with
anything except a fly on this place or Tor
them at all except in certain spots on
that.
Some Costly Fish.

to $500 to get a trout or a togue In Maine
The money is divided among railroads.

American sportsman who would like TO try
cor illusions with Canadian salmon on
one of the famous waters. a thousand DOL

boats. canoe men. guides. cooks, outtitters
club servants and Indians to pay before the
feathers dance their dance of death for the
silver monster in the black pool under the
roaring waterfall.
If the sportsman is enthusiastic enough to
want to lease the entire fishing rights In Il
