Of the enormous destruction where they arc

Prof. Mead and his assistants have a
way Of telling how the young Holsters
travel and where they make their homes,
Occasionally they attach a small copper
tag to the claw or some other part Of a
lobster. On this tag is stamped a number

A large quantity Of tags have been re-
turned to the station. In one instance the
lobster was caught in a pot more than a

These records prove that the fish are NOT

OF lobster culture Is a success, for with

With that rapidity OF perception and
action which was 80 important a compile
ment Of his deliberateness, he motioned the
man, a hack driver from the adjacent stand,
to wait for him.
Cronkite looked grave, indeed, when he
came out an hour later. Edmunds was out
of danger, peacefully sleeping in his private
room; but 1t had been a close race with
death. Only the liquor, so the physicians
said, through ~neutrafizing somewhat the
obscure poison which their patient had
taken in 1t the night before, had saved him.
AS it was he would get along all right II
kept from further excitement.
Cronkite looked graver still when the
driver, coming at his nod, told his story.

1t was az whining n tale as son OF Adam
ever told. From his first chance meeting
with Margaret Bellair 10 his horrible awaken
ing from drugged sleep in a waterside hotel
to find himself despoiled and betrayed, one
whimpering refrain, 'The woman did it,
ran through Edmunds's confession.
1t was she who with unexplained knowl-
edge Of persons and things first suggested
the imposition. 1t was she who planned
that 1t would be prudent for him to sail
alone with the booty, and for her to join
him on the next steamer. 1t was she who
delayed his embarking by lure Of hint and
glance, who prepared and pledged him
In the glass Of his undoing.
And that isn't all, Edmunds cried, with
a fearsome look this way and that, and a
livid pallor under his CRIME. Il was i'll,
nigh unto death; l still am Ill.
"She tried to poison me, to kill me, ]

put me out of the way and then lead the
officers Of the law to believe that I had

on the pier this morning about how they

when I came up just now, no wonder I be-
trayed myself by trying to earn more.

of beauty and grace, which trouble can never
wholly eradicate? l thought she was de-
voted to me-other women nave been.
"Oh, I ann talk, everything is In q

Cronkite hurried the stricken man to the
nearest hospital. As the attendants we're
bearing the patient into the building the
detective noticed while following through
the little press Of curious idlers a face whose
expression showed sympathy, surprise and
the excitement Of one to a degree at least
cognizRnt Of some part Of the drama.

Enough OF these compartments are pro-

the shore at low tide and left Il take care
Of themselves. In each compartment the
water 10 kept continually In motion by
paddles, 30 that it is purified just as the
electric fan purifes the air in a room.
The first step In lobster propagation is
to get the eggs without iniuring them.
This is o delicate operation because they
are very small, but a comber has been in
vented by which they are taken from under
the body Of the mother and deposited in the
proper tank or cage
Even the smallest fry need plenty of room.
Without 1t they might die Of suffocation. I'm
less they can readily get at their food they
will starve to death, while the older ones
have no objection to making q meal on the
younger ones. In fact they are cannibals
Of the worst type in their fondpess for one
another.
The continual agitation Of the water
keeps the chopped clans which form their
principal food we'll distributed so that
each one can get a share. while it prevents
parasites to q considerable extent from

In fitted for tho struggle for life.
The young lobster, no longer help
less, now burrows under shells or stones
which form It's home. From this II
sallies forth in search Of food, and
returns when satisfied or attacked. A
new mode Of swimming Is also adopted
the tail being extended straight behind
the body and the large claws extended in
front Of the head.
When the fish are In this condition they
are taken from the tanks, put in cans or
other receptacles and liberated, a thousand
or more at a time. The usual method
adopted is to set them free in the morning
upon a rocky shore when the tide is out.
Here they can find a satisfactory place to
burrow and hide from their enemies, as
we'll as a favorable chance to obtain food.
II thrown overheard in large quantities
in deep water at one point they o un-
doubtedly attract large numbers OF their
natural enemies and consequently be de-
voured. AS it is, the lobster has about as
hard a time OF it to exist as any creature
that has a home in the waters.
Calculations made by those who have
studied the habits Of the shell fish, and the
animals and fish that prey on them, indi-
cate that where the Matching is done in
the usual way not more than five out Of
