MANY FISHERIES TREATIES.

North Atlantic fisheries have been the subject
Of at least five treaties which were perfected, as
many more which failed, and several modi
vivendi between the United States and Canada
since Colonial days.
Commercial treaties have altered the relations
OF Canada and the United States materially
and have affected the fisheries treaties radically
but at time have Americans been sure of
their rights in the Canadian waters. and it has
always been charged by American fishermen
that they do not enjoy the privileges in waters
adjacent TO the British land which are insured
to them by the laws OF nations, regardless Of
treaties.
Seal fishing in Behring Sea and the North Pa
cihc is another subject OF dispute between Can
ada and the United States which demands settle
ment. After the United States acquired Alaska
It attempted TO prevent the slaughter Of geaJs
in Behring Sea, just Russia did when II con-

the United States resulted in international en-
tanglements extending over several years and
in 1882 the subject was referred TO arbitration

have been connected with the ''De

familiar, and as result was taken
prisoner in Spain and incarcerated in
Madrid where he claimed he was
awaiting extradition papers
The writer Of the letter tried to ap-
zeal to my friend in behalf of his

Nearly all of the passengers had re-

COMMENCEMENT WEEK
Began Yesterday by BaCCaiaureate

Commencement week was ushered in
very auspiciously yesterday morning by
the Baccalaureate service, which vas
held in the Congregational church. The
weather was ideal and the church was
well filled in honor of the graduating
class. The pastors OF the Lutheran,
Presby yterian, Methodist and Congrega-
tional churches occupied seats on the
platform and took part in the services.
Excellent music was rendered by the
choir, consisting OF Misses Nettleton and
Simons and Messrs. Powell and Jacob
son.
Supt. II. NJ. Cook had been invited by
the class to deliver the Baccalaureate
address, and chose for his subjec. RE
quirements of the Age" which he
handled in very able manner. The
topic being timely one and the subject
matter so we'll selected and presented, !,
the speaker had the attention of every
person in the house. MIR. Cook took oc.
casion to bring the matter close home,
and several times mentioned require.
ments which our. city must have if we
would keep abreast with the times
That the address was we'll received was
altested by the many complimentary re-.
marks heard at the conclusion OF the
exercises.
Mr.. jacobson gave as vocal solo "The
Recessional" in such way as to hold
the audience fairly spell bound.
All felt that the services were in every
particular grand success, and the
Seniors of '06 have every reason to rejoice
over the way in which the events of
their commencement week have opened.
