AN EXPERTS OPINION,
He Thinks the Pounds Are Ruining
 River Dragging.

He Thinks the Pounds Are Ruining
 River Dragging.
 The river fishermen have about given. up hopes of even securing fair return for their work of fishing, saying noth- ing of the cost of their nets and outfits. The legal season for taking the fish closes on June 20, and 1t will take the best of fishing from now on until that date to enable them to get back the cash they have expended. For 8 few days last week it looked as though a big run up the river had started but it stopped as quickly as 1t began.
 R. $. Church, representative of John Davis, a Fulton market fish wholesaler is in town this week and every morning purchases the catch from the dragmen and ships them.
 Mr. Church is just back from the South where he handled the catch i'll the Chesapeake and Potomac rivers and says that the catch in the Connecticut this year in his opinion will be light. He firmly believes that the pounds all along the Atlantic coast about the mouth of the rivers into which the shad run are the cause of the decrease in the shad supply.--Deep River Era.

OBITUARY NOTES.
Mrs. Edith Wells HiIeman.

The many friends of MT. and Mrs. Amos Wells, formerly of this city, will be grieved to learn of the death of their daughter, Mrs. Edith Wells Hileman, which occurred May 25 at East Pasade- ma, California, after a lingering and painful illness.
 Mrs. Hi1eman was a graduate of Boardman and will be remembered as class poet of 1901. Her sweetness of disposition and engaging qualities of mind and heart endeared her to all who knew her, and her untimely death at the age of twenty-four will cause much sorrow among her classmates and girl hood associates. ...4
 In January, 1904, as her health began to fail, together with her parents she removed to California, hoping that the change might prove beneficial, but the most devoted care and utmost efforts of medical skill proved unavailing.
 Upon May 1, finding that the end was rapidly approaching, she was married to Albert Hilenan, to whom she had been affianeed, and much sympathy is felt for the young husband in his sad bereavement, but her faith never fal- tered and her cheery spirits kept its marvellous poise to the last, when as a tired child she fell sweetly asleep.

There is great deal of apprehension felt that in Milford concerning the fate of Lieutenant De ChrapovitslSy of the Russian navy. The lieutenant is known by a number of people in Milford and his wife, a sister of H. A. Taylor of Fort Trumbull Beach, was president of that town at the time of her marrage. He is a lieutenant in the Russian navy and was for some years acting on the pri- vate yacht of the czar, but since the opening of the war with Japan has been transferred at his own request on board one of the active fighting ships. It is definitely known that he was OH. the Alexander III when that vessel went into the battle with the Japanese warships last Saturday, but his fate since then has as yet not been settled or at least no word of his fate had reached Milford up to last evening. Ma dam De Chrapovitsly ana her two daughters left European port early in the week for New York and is expected in Milford about the 9th of this month. She and her daughters will make quite a visit to Milford before returning to her adopted country.

HOW TURKEYS THRIVE.
Cheerful Story of Success on Fishers
 Island

Cheerful Story of Success on Fishers
 Island.
 Only recently has science turned it's attention to the Thanksgiving bird, but already it has accomplished some wonderful things in the culture and im- provement of that admirable fowl which, in the opinion of many, has 3 better claim than the bald-headed eagle to figure as the national en- biem.
 On Fishers Island, opposite New London, and not far distant, is the greatest and most successful turkey farm in the world. The island, one might say, is an artificial wilderness of 4,0OO acres scientifically managed Over this area thousands of the birds roam in a condition so close to that of nature that though a domestieated variety, they are perfectly wild. No shelters of any kind are provided for them. The hen turkeys build their nests in the open, and, while plenty of corn is supplied, it is scattered about in all sorts of places, and even buried under leaves, in order that the fowls may be obliged to hustle for the pro- ve1lder.
 These turkeys attain gigantic size, sometimes reaching a weight of near ly fifty pounds. In the market at Thanksgiving time they reach ten cents pound more than ordinary turkeys, owing to their remarkable delicious flavor.
 They are so hardy that nothing short of hatchet will kill them. In winter they roost out on fence rails and tree branches, and, though often their heads are actually frozen under their wings, their health does not suffer in the least. The delicacy of constitution which affects turkeys elsewhere, mak- ing them hard to rear, does not bother the birds of Fishers Island. Not long ago thirty of them were bought by the State authorities of Rhode Island for the purpose of inoculating" them with the fearfully destructive and contagious disease known as black head, by the way of experiment; but none of them could be induced to take the malady.-- Boston Herald.

Nor throp and David Ross, in the Memorial day parade, having been wounded in the service during the Civil war, there was another point of interest that pro- bably a great many were not aware of, and that was the fact that Marshal Rawson and his entire staff, including Chief of Staff D. l.. Barber, and the aids, L. A. Northrop, D. Ross, W. H. Latham and J. G. Phelan were all ex- members of Company K. MT. Northrop was wounded at the battle of Cedar Mountain, MT.

ENTERTAINMENT
New Haven Theater.

There was large audience at the New Haven theatre last night, when the Russell Stock company again pre- scented Robert Louis Stevenson's psy- chological story of "Dr. Jekyll and MT. Hyde.' MT. Louis J. Russell gave a magnificent presentation of the dual role of the amiable Dr. Jekyll and of the hideous MT. Hyde, which was much appreciated by the audience, and he was greeted with rounds of well mer- ited applause. The supporting compa- ny ably seconded MT. Russell's efforts, and the result was splendid pfoduc- tion of this remarkable play.
 The performance will be repeated again to-day, matinee and night, and no doubt large houses will be the rule at each performance.

Japan is the principal topic in the Nasional Geographic Magazine for May In its fisheries, says Dr. H. M. Smith of our Bureau of Fisheries, it ranks above all other nations in the number of per- sons engaged in the industry, the amount of the product and its import ance in the domestic economy, the skill shown in catching and the methods of scientific aquiculture, and the extent to which water growths of all kinds are utilized. He describes from personal observation several methods of catch ing fish, but omits to tell how sharks are taken. These are among the com monest and most wholesome of Japan csc foodfishes, and are sent in immense numbers to the market, where they are "butchered" as beeves are in our coun- try. MT.
