FISHERMEN.
There ARE Two Glasses, the Genuine
and the Pretenders.

There ARE Two Glasses, the Genuine
and the Pretenders.
1t has sometimes been said that fish,
ermen cannot be manufactured. This
Is true to the extent that nothing can
supply the lack of certain inherent.
constitutional and Unborn qualities or
traits which are absolutely necessary
to fisherman's makeup. or course
there are many who call themselves
fishermen and who insist upon their
membership In the fraternity who have
not in their veins q drop of legitimate
fisherman blood. Their self asserted
relationship is nevertheless sometimes
seized upon by malicious or ignorant
critics as permitting the assumption
that the weaknesses and sins OF these
pretenders are the weaknesses and
sins of genuine fishermen. But In
truth these pretenders are only inter-
lopers who have learned little fish
language, who love to fish only when
they bite" who whine at bad luck.
who betray incredulity when they hear
a rousing fish story and who do or
leave undone many other things fatal
to good and regular standing. They
are like certain whites called squaw
men who hang about Indian reserva-
lions and gain certain advantages In
the tribes by marrying full blooded In
dian women. Surely no just person
would for a moment suppose that gen.
uine Indians could be treated fairly by
measuring them according to squaw
man standard. Neither can genuine
fishermen be fairly treated by judg-
ing them according to the standards
presented by squaw fishermen.-From
Fishing and Shooting Sketches" by

The One Most Beloved by the People
Is Binzara.
Among the many Buddhist-Shinto
saints, whose quaint efTigies set up in
every conceivable nook and corner of
Japan make it country of craven
images. one of the most impressive
and interesting is the pathetic person
called Binzuru. He was once upon q
time a member of that strange COM
pany of Buddhist disciples known as
the s.Sixteen Rakkan." But one day
he fell from grace by remarking upon
the attractions OF a woman. and he
was expelled from the society of
chaste brethren. The great Buddha
gave hin, in return for all that his
worldliness had cost him, power to
heal human ills and to grant the
prayers of childless women who long
ed for motherhood. But he was put
outside the temples. He must hence
forth SIT without, in the midst of the
passing throng, and submit himself
TO personal contact with all that was

hearted people love him, I think.

In the temple porches are the strangest

little cotton cap.-Eleanor Franklin in

"Ha, here comes RateIiffe with a

Three important Subjects
Taken Up by Senate.
Panama Canal, Santo Domingo
and Merchants Bill.
House Attends 10 District Of Columbia
and Short Tariff Talk.

WASHINGTON, Jan. S.-The Senate gave
attention today to the Panama canal,
the situation in SantO Domingo and the
merchant shipping bill. The canal ques-
ton came up i'll connection with mes
sage from the President in which,
among ether things, he invited the
closest scrutiny into all that had been
done by the government in the isthmus
of Panama. German made that utter
ailce the text for I; speech in which he
criticized the salaries paid for work in
connection with the canal and urged
congressional inquiry. He said that the
President was not so much to blame
as Congress for his assumption of con-
troll If the isthmuS and that the chief
mistake had been made when Congress
released it's hold on canal affairs. Hale
agreed with German in urging an as
sertion of the rights of Congress in
connection with tie canal and said that
while Congress had delegated the mat
ter to the President. the latter practi-
caiiy had referred the whole matter
back to Congress.
The Dominican discussion arose on
I'illnan's resolution making inquiry of
the President concerning the status of
affairs in the island republic. The res
olction was made the basis for L
speech by Rayner. which WAS his mi
tial effort in the Senate. He made an
argument for non-interference by the
United States in the affairs of other
countries in the Western Hemisphere
except in cases involving efforts to ap-
prOpriatc territory and closed with a
plea for encourage cement to the Russian
Jews in their struggle for their rights

both from the floor and from the gal
lcries ana when he closed was warmly
