CORBETT IS NOW A REAL ACTOR

to the westward and sail to the N. w.
As each vessel was sighted, Captain
NJ would say: 81 wonder if that fellow
has any potatoes aboard. He seemed to
have some idea of turning pirate. But if
they had been treasure laden Galleons and
he a buccaneer of the Spanish Main, they
might, one and all, have departed in peace,
keeping their gold, provided they surrend-
cred their potatoes quietly.

Wednesday. October 4th.
Some years ago, and about as many
thousand miles further North, when cross
ing the Gulf Stream in the Red Star S. S.
Westernland, the heat, while not an ap-
proach to this which we have been endur-
ing for nearly two weeks, was nevertheless
severe enough to keep half the passengers
on deck most of the night in preference to
suffocatiug in their cramped quarters below.
What foolish lot of passengers we were
to be surel What would we have thought
of this? Where we are now, the sun at
the horizon has greater power than it has
at noon on a midsummer day at home, and
when it has reached the zenith the heat
becomes simply iudescribable At sunset,
the sea and sky take on coppery color,
which seems to add to the hot metallic feel
ing of the air The sun, a red, fiery ball,
magni6ed to gigantic proportions by the
refraction Of the atmosphere, seems to
plunge into the ocean, and one almost ex-
poets to hear it hiss when it meets the
waves. After the few minutes of twilight,
the bright, breathless, tropical night has be-
gun, the sailors uneoil themselves from the
patches of shade in which they had been
seeking shelter, and walk about the deck
stretching their legs, while they stretch
the truth with "reminiscences of how much
hotter it was in some other place or at some
other time. They listen attentiyely to each

Successful Cast-Net Fishermen.
From Denton Journal.

Mr.. Grant Alburger, of this place, has be-
come an expert cast-net fisherman, and has
developed quite an industry in catching and
marketing carp, with which the Choptank
river abounds. Carp fish are not valuable ex-
cept in cold weather, however, and the season
will soon close for the year, On Mo day Mr..
Alburger and an assistant captlred l6O and
the lot weighed about half a ton, the net re-
turns therefrom, in the Baltimore market, be-
ing over S32. On Wednesday Mr.. Charles
Mitchell caught 60, weighing about 500
pounds On Thursday Mr.. Alburger caught
9sl pounds of carp. Mr.. Aburger learns the
winter habitat of the big fish and there throws
his net, the diameter of which is about twelve
feet. One of the fish recently caught by Mr..
Alburger weighed Al pounds. He and other
fishermen attribute the destruction of the shad
aud herring fishing industry, in this part of
the Choptank to the voracons carp, which
they say feed upon the fish eggs in the spring.
As the big fish are growing in numbers rapidly
the fishermen believe the day of the Choptank
shad and herring is done for all the time.
There is scarcely probability that so prolific
a species as the carp can be exterminated.

SPRING.

John l., Woodbury., is Boston Globe
There's ooze on the sidewalk,
And slush in the street,
There's coughing and sneezing
That comes of wet feet;
There's mud on the floors
That in booloads we bring,
There snowfall aud rainfall
In short it is spring.
There's a scraping of runners
And splashing of wheels,
With horses a-reeking
From head down to heels;
There's a cursing of teamsters-
It amt quite the thing,
But they re certain to do it
When they get stuck in spring.
There's a pond in the garden,
And a swift brook doth glide
To its home in the cellar,
Where unauchored there ride
Barrels of pork and potatoes
And that sort Of thing,
While the roof goes to leaking,
As 1t does every spring.
There's a stir in the house
o, amt it a sin?
The men kick against it,
But the women pitch in.
With mop, soap and water
They scrub and they wiring
Its the annual house cleaning,
It's certainly spring.
