international Study of the Sea.


All the sea fisheries, wherever situated,
have an interest in the scientific investiga-
items now in progress in the North sea and
the adjacent waters The nine states par
uClpating in the researches are Germany,
Great Britain, Denmark, Sweden Norway
Belgium. Finland, the Netherlands and
Russia. This international work was or
gained at the conferences held at Stock
holm IN 1899, at Christiania in 1901 and at
Copenhagen in 1902, and the Investigations
have now been in progress for three years
under the direction of the International
Council at Copenhagen.
Such cooperation among the nations for
the study of the problems of the sea has
never before been witnessed. Special
stes mers were built for the work by Ger
many, Russia, Norway, Sweden and Den
mark, deliberately equipped with scientific
appliances and fishing gear, and with am
pie accommodations for large STATS of OBJ
servers. The other countries have hired
vessels for the purpose. Some twenty-five
OF thirty reports have thus far been issued,
most of them short monogra phs by various
observers, and the interna tional council has
just issued long report reviewing the or
ganization of the scientific and practical
work and the methods, means and results
as far as they have assumed a definite
character at the present time.
Broadly stated. the aim of this interna-
tiCnal study of the sea is to make II pos
sible to carry on the fisheries on a sci
entiic basis and thus to conserve and aug
ment this source of wealth. The studies
have been extended not only over the North
sea. but also along the Atlantic coast OF
Norway, in the Baltic. Barents and White
sea, but also along the Atlantic coast of
wide field of research, for it involves not
only the study of the biological conditions
of the animal and plant worlds in these seas
with special regard to the food and the re-
production, growth. distribution and migra-
lions of the different food fishes, but also a
study of the photographic conditions in all
these waters and of the nature of the sea
floors; so that it is geographical as well
as a biological and economic investigation.

The Wit of Fox.

Charles James Fox, the famous
English advocate of a century ago,
and his secretary, Mr.. Hare, who
lived with him, were both noted for
their impecuniosity, and their cred
itors spent much time in dunning
them. One morning before dayhg hit
there was violent ringing at the
door, and Mr.. Fox, going To the
window, found a group of creditors
below.
care you fox hunting or hare
hunting this morning, gentlemen? ?"
he asked.
"Come. now, Mr.. Fox" pne Of
them called up, "tell us when you
are going to pay that bill. just set
date, and we will leave you in
peace"

will the day Of Judgment suit your"

"We'll all be too busy on that day."

cALAMITIEs IN CITIES.
Every Great Center Sooner or Later
Meets With Disaster.

Sooner or later, it seems, every
city in the country is sure to have
It's great calamity. New York has
had its blizzard, Charleston its
earthquake, Galveston its deluge,
YOUNGSTOWN its food, Chicago and
Baltimore their fires, New Orleans
It's pestilence, st. Louis its cyclone,
Pitsburg its riots, Paterson its
dread trinity of fame, flood and
tornado, the cities of the lower Mis-
sissippi valley their freshets and
San Francisco and the sister cities
of the coast ruin in earthquake and
fire. Somewhere every year it seems
to be the case that the destruction
that befell the ancient cities of the
plain is to be repeated, to awaken
the same superstitious dread and re-
mind humanity that "God made the
country and man made the town"
Why is it that the lament "Bab-
ylon is fallen, is fallen" must be
uttered every year? The reason
is as prosaic as the force of gravita-
ton, but it may be as formidable
as that force working through an
earthquake shock. Where a multi
tude Of people are gathered together
the forces exist for converging
calamity that would dissipate itself
unnoticed in a wilderness or pas
toral country. A great city means
a great population to disseminate
contagion. 1t means a site on
navigable river that may be muir
derously overswollen in freshet or
on a bay Of the ocean out Of which
swollen tide,may come. As for
the wind, it ''bloweth where it
listeth," and storm that in a farm
ing country might uproot a few
trees and unroof a few cottages, in
a city may topple down walls on
sleeping population and lend wings
to the death angel of fire.
The life of the ordinary individ-
ual contains few startling Incl
dents, but a city may live for hun
dreds or thousands of years, and
sooner or later something will hap
pen to it that will be matter for
history.-New York Mail.

Origin of Trousers.

Trousers, the distinctive feature
Of mems dress, were worn in Egypt
for the first time. Both women and
men had been wearing aprons.
Aprons were the very first attempt
to ornament and decorate the per-
son. Before they appeared men
and women wore skins and furs-
plain, severe and simple. The aprons
were q fanciful friI. The women
Of Egypt got to wearing them long,
and imperious fashion, required the
men to do the same. It was diff
cult for the men to move freely,
though, wearing these long aprons.
A genius appeared. He cut holes
in the apron, stuck his legs through,
and, behold, he had the documentary
trousersl Little BY little something
was added behind or in 'front.' until
today we have the perfect pattern.
